Does not work

After install app says my location services are turned off (I allowed it to access while using the app and location services are on) and says I need a network connection. I got ripped, don’t fall for it.

This app doesn’t work period

Does not work, no radar no nothing just errors. Really impressed. Anybody who wants to PAY extra for this weather app like hurricane, tornado severe thunderstorm alerts don’t do it. Buyer’s beware, go to a different weather app!! this app is a complete scam. And yes I emailed them! Still waiting for a reply.

Radar doesn’t always display

When I’ve got radar selected in settings, radar often doesn’t show up on the map. Yes, I emailed support but did not receive a reply. Great when it works but too often doesn’t for me, at least on my iPad. Sorry I bought this.

App not working

I enjoyed NOAA Radar Pro for many years. It was a great app. Then it stopped working. Thinking they might have stopped supporting it I purchased NOAA Radar Plus. Neither of these apps are working correctly. Radar Pro loads for a second then kicks me out. Radar Plus just shows an empty map with no Radar data. I’ve tried many work arounds. I’ve
e-mailed the support site 4 times… no answer. I held off writing this negative review because I was very happy with Radar Pro in the past… before it stopped working.

Bad app

I was charged 1.99 several times to purchase this app and for in app purchases. No radar shows up. I’ve tried to contact for help twice now through their contact us email and have received no help. This is a terrible app. DO NOT BUY IT
