I love this app
However, the Google maps interface has not been working for quite some time… Hope there will be an update soon
Map has disappeared!
Previously was a GREAT app - but somehow I’ve lost the underlying map! Can see the colors of the rainfall (what we have had in this #ChevronDrought), but not map to see where that rain has fallen.
No scale or satellite layer
There’s no way of determining regional rainfall totals without a scale or any geographic layers to depict locations.
Useful app for travelers
Very useful for travel planning and knowing weather conditions.
Not supported
At appears that the developers of this app have stopped supporting it and there is no longer any meaningful data to be gleaned from it. It’s a shame because it was a useful app for determining past rainfall amounts at any location, and seems to be that no one else is doing anything similar
Great for Mushroom Foraging
This app is wonderful for someone like me who forgets when it last rained in my region and want to forage mushrooms. This app has pointed me to search specifically in areas with recent rainfall to much success! A great tool for this purpose, also helps with deciding if I need to water the garden.
Awful
The worst app I have been seen and really inaccurate.
Not accurate
I don’t know why the reviews are so high. The rainfall data seems totally wrong.
App not ready for App Store
Why do people post into the App Store apps that are half finished?
I can’t tell for sure how much precipitation in inches has come in my area in the last couple of days enough to be able to decide whether to turn the sprinklers on this morning or not.
I only get two days a week I’m allowed to turn the sprinklers on, and I don’t want to turn them on and waste money if I don’t need to.
The so-called animation doesn’t do anything, and I cannot really tell what is going on with this app. I am glad that they gave us and them. Imperial units option. But that’s something that should’ve been done before they ever put it on the market in the App Store. The fact that people had to ask for that is appalling, considering we don’t live in Europe. And I still would like the whole app to work before they provide it in the App Store.
It’s very important to find some app that will make it very easy to tell whether I need to turn the sprinklers on or not and that depends on inches of rain reported in the past 24 hours.
I don’t understand why I am supposed to be reporting rain since I would have to stand out with my hands out in my yard all day long to know, and I have no idea whether it rains or not, except when I happened to be standing outside.

Promising application
Thank for making a useful app for precipitation monitoring. Looking forward for new features.
Good app but...
I have been searching for an app like this to show past precip, so I am excited to find this. However i think it needs two important improvements: 1) ability to adjust the transparency of the precip overlay - without it I can’t really drill down to a location as I can’t see the map under the precip colors. 2) ability to zoom closer than is currently supported - again difficult to get to the location (like a park) at the current max zoom level. Otherwise it looks very promising!

Inches an mm option setting would be nice for rainfall.
Think American
Rain totals displayed in mm and no option to change to inches. Useless to most Americans.
Animation
The animation part still does not work and the control panel shows up occasionally. Otherwise a useful tool.
One of best app to view weather
If you are outdoor person and want to check weather where u are heading, this is right choice! Recommended!!!

This is a really awesome free app with non-profit support and every people can use it
Great app!
iRain is a great tool for everyone. A great product from UC Irvine!
Good app for rain totals
Very nice app. The one criticism I have is that there should be a way to turn off the crowdsource layer, or at least filter out the items with "no precipitation." Here in Southern California the map is literally filled with useless "no precipitation" markers.
And I agree with the other reviewer about mm vs inches. I'd much prefer to see this in inches.

Pretty Cool
Pretty cool app to literally look at precipitation on a global level all the way down to your home city. One suggestion for us non-engineers - how about the ability to switch the measuring increments to inches versus centimeters?
Program fails
Program boots up, but then quits, and goes back to iPad screen,,, great try
