lausige funktion ohne teures abo🙄

**Developer response:** Hallo, entschuldigen Sie, könnten Sie uns bitte eine E-Mail an long-nguyen@activeuser.co senden, damit wir die App reparieren können?

### 1/5 — STOP HARASSING ME TO RATE AND REVIEW!

*2025-07-08, version 1.2.0*

You asked for it REPEATEDLY!

The daily ANNOYANCE of having to click NO twice makes me seriously dislike this app even though otherwise it’s pretty good.

THERE YOU GO!  Happy?!

### 1/5 — Tracking my location

*2025-05-01, version 1.1.8*

I set the app to not track my location but it still is showing my current location!!!  I want a refund for the subscription!

### 1/5 — It’s not free

*2025-02-17, version 1.1.6*

The functionality of the free version is too limiting to present this as a free product.

### 1/5 — Pay to See the Hurricane Track

*2024-10-08, version 1.1.3*

You have to pay to see the hurricane track, foh

### 1/5 — Refused Refund after Death in Family +

*2024-04-23*

I downloaded this app to just take a look at it. I did sign up for the. 3 days trial.  It couldn’t find my location and the radar never loaded after many settings check. The next day I heard a family member was not well and died the next day. To add insult to injury my wife was let go from her job.  My point I was distracted with life and forgot about this app and was charged $3.99 for the week. This is not my biggest problem by far it’s just disappointing that a company cant understand that life happens. It just shows this company does not care about their customers.  I would avoid this app there are better apps out there without the cost.  They refused 2 request for refunds.

**Developer response:** Hi, we're sorry to hear about your situation. We'll help you anytime.
However, actually, refunding is managed by Apple and we have no control over it. If you email us, we'll guild you immediately. You can ask for Apple refund here: https://support.apple.com/en-vn/118223

### 1/5 — Waste of money other free app works better

*2023-08-20*

Lightning Pro app is free and their radar link works much better.  
Everything tab on this app is just a link to try and get you to buy their pro version.

### 2/5 — Other locations

*2025-02-07, version 1.1.6*

How to get other locations?

### 2/5 — Needs to have an easy to find key to the colors

*2024-02-04*

Most features are for paid version, which I might be interested in if the basic free version was more intuitive

**Developer response:** Thank you for your comment. Could you please send us email to long-nguyen@activeuser.co so we can improve the app?

### 2/5 — Future weather, storm tracking all require subscription

*2023-07-31*

Nice app, fairly reminiscent of the now-dead-but-industry-leading DarkSky app that Apple bought and killed.  But you have to subscribe to get anything that is forward-looking such as future radar, future storm activity, or any hurricane tracking.  For me, I’ve found the app Clime, also NOAA-based, to be far more feature-rich having all the above plus more in the current version that is completely free.

**Developer response:** Hi, thank you for your comment. 
We glad you are very knowledgable about radar and hurricane tracking. You can totally try using that features for free by sharing our app and it will be unlocked. 
We will try to add more future next.
