Now whenever you open to check something it automatically opens with verbal forecast If I just want to check something everyone around me hears the weather forecast. I have no need to hear this. I can read. And it bothers others. How to make this silent when opening. May just leave for another networks weather. So annoying ### 3/5 — Remove the live voices and video from the radar app. *2026-08-04, version 6.6* I love the app but wish I hadn’t done the update. Now every time I want to look at the radar, live newsfeed comes on from the weather center. If I wanted to watch the weather channel, I would. Please remove this annoying feature from the app. ### 4/5 — Excellent BUT *2026-08-03, version 6.6* Have used for decades. Sometimes time stamp of forecast or even landfall not included. Most critical in hurricane county. Time may dictate your every movement!!!! ### 4/5 — No full service while traveling *2026-07-10, version 6.5* Why can I not use Max Tracker while I’m in Europe ? ### 1/5 — Ready to delete this app *2026-07-03, version 6.5* I used to love Max Tracker, went on it all the time for my weather reports. And my radar. However, ever since the upgrade it’s been absolutely awful. I now I’m back to using WeatherBug. ### 2/5 — Don’t work *2026-06-25, version 6.4* Doesn’t make sense don’t work not even an update ### 1/5 — Radar freezes and crashes *2026-06-22, version 6.4* The latest update has a glitch with the radar. In addition to forecasting many hours into the future the app freezes and then crashes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app with the same results. Please check and fix this issue. Same problem on 2 iPads and 2 different model iPhones. ### 1/5 — Gulf *2026-06-17, version 6.4* You changed the name of the Gulf of Mexico? Deleting. ### 1/5 — Bring back the pre-update! *2026-06-15, version 6.4* The updated radar is TERRIBLE! I can hear the thunder and nothing is showing! Having to switch back to local radar app. This has been my go to for YEARS. But this update that causes the radar to show the “future” on loop is just not accurate. So sad! ### 1/5 — Lost location *2026-06-14, version 6.4* I just downloaded the latest version and now the radar no longer shows my location. I reviewed all my settings and they are correct - I even tried turning my iPhone off and then on - my location is clearly not working with the new version. BYW, find my phone is working so that’s not the issue - in my opinion, the upgrade is incomplete. ### 2/5 — Poor Performance *2026-06-14, version 6.4* I have loved this app until the latest update. The precipitation radar sticks and most importantly it no longer indication my location. I have reset my phone and made sure my settings are correct and still no blue dot. I will anxiously await the next update before i go to a different weather app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Unexpected audio *2026-08-18, version 6.6* Multiple times during the day and night, the app starts playing the audio from the front page of the app. There doesn’t seem to be a way to make it stop doing this. ### 1/5 — Weird *2026-08-16, version 6.6* Just automatically goes on without me tapping the app ### 1/5 — Defective *2026-08-11, version 6.6* Auto starts constantly. Acts like a virus. ### 1/5 — Annoying video *2026-08-07, version 6.6* Took a great app and messed it up. Please remove this auto play annoying video from the app. ### 1/5 — RUINED! *2026-08-05, version 6.6* They took a perfectly good app and messed it up😡 ### 1/5 — New update sucks *2026-07-31, version 6.6* I’ve used this app for 5 years and now when it starts some weather person starts yapping every time so I’m deleting and never using it again, solid work ### 1/5 — Not a good update *2026-07-26, version 6.5* Ever since the update the radar is off, doesn’t match reality, future cast not even close. I’ve used this for years as my goto app so I’m used to how close it used to be. ### 1/5 — John Shaffer *2026-07-13, version 6.5* Hate the new radar. Impossible to stop at the appropriate time. Why did you change it? ### 1/5 — Gulf of America? I see you kissed the ring! *2026-07-07, version 6.5* After using and loving this app for the last 12 to 15 years I just noticed you kissed the orange ring. It's "Gulf of Mexico" in the rest of the free and civilized world. Deleting and rating one star! ### 1/5 — Radar issues *2026-07-03, version 6.5* The radar in many years of previous versions was the past few hours ending with live radar. Now it attempts to show future radar. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Messed up *2026-08-17, version 6.6* Auto starting a notification with audio and no way to turn it off. Did it for me. Deleted. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-08-15, version 6.6* I live on the nc coast and this app is great ### 5/5 — Max Tracker Hurricane app *2026-08-12, version 6.6* Best app in Florida period!! ### 5/5 — Best for Hurricanes *2026-08-04, version 6.6* This app has a new tropics Watch feature that gives you live updates from news reels about what’s going on in the tropics. It tracks the hurricanes from before they form all the way through until they are over. I love this app. Five stars hands-down. ### 5/5 — MPH vs KM/HR *2026-07-25, version 6.5* On a recent update the wind speeds are now in kilometers per hour. How can we change back to MPH? ### 5/5 — Súper *2026-06-17, version 6.4* 👍🏻 ### 5/5 — Mr *2026-06-16, version 6.4* Excellent app ### 5/5 — Please no forecast radar *2026-06-14, version 6.4* Keep it the way it was, I want the current radar not some forecast BS ### 5/5 — The best *2026-05-30, version 6.3* I love this app. I use it exclusively for the radar live view. Excellent. ### 5/5 — Tracker. *2026-03-29, version 6.3* Very easy to use. Good info. Soo thankful to be able to see what is on the way. Pleas keep up the wonderful work.
