That said it worked fine for years then went dead and finally came back. Beats me may be one guy updating a complicated app or simply not making enough to keep it up. I would gladly pay for it again as it was not real expensive and extremely useful so I’ll keep it in my weather folder in hopes of a return it has done it before if not sad to see it go as many apps have it was a good one. ### 5/5 — Superb weather site *2022-12-29, version 5.3* Have used for years this enhanced, clever weather site… Big picture & small focused picture useful, a Solid choice! jtf ### 5/5 — One of the best! *2022-09-05, version 5.3* Ok, I’m a weather app junkie (15 or more apps!). This app is one of only two that gets a place on the first screen on my iPhone and iPad not in a folder. There are many features I like (lots of different types of info) but I especially rely on it for weather alerts, which I have set to multiple locations where family and friends live. Occasionally over the years all the overlay & detailed data (except alerts) stop working. In the past, the data comes back after a few days or weeks. I hope that is the case this time. Lots of good work here - please keep it up! ### 2/5 — Love this app. When it works. *2021-05-28, version 5.3* I’d say major update in order or is it ready to bail on hard earn money. Every time the is a major event in my area radar stops working. Send them email and never once a response but 1 -3 days it will get reset. When radar is working though it would the best. I wonder what it will take. Prolly the old stop support, abandoning old app and supporters, come out with a very similar new app that needs to be purchased or as the tend goes to be subscribed to. Don’t know bout you but hate that subscription no support thing like wit WU. ### 5/5 — Great for checking weather for traveling *2020-03-14, version 5.3* Use this quite a bit for checking weather before traveling. Has accurate forecast to know what you could be getting into ### 3/5 — We Center *2020-03-01, version 5.3* My go to app for weather, however Recently I have not been able to access info I had always accessed before. I thought it may have been a issue with my Apple 10s so I deleted the app and downloaded it from the cloud thinking it would fix any issues. It may be that I need to download in App purchase. Still like and use the app for current weather even though I can’t seem to access other features ### 3/5 — Not perfect *2020-02-14, version 5.3* I downloaded the app a few days ago and it just started working. The radar is very good. None of the other included features are working. I get a message that “a problem occurred while getting the data”. I did email support two days ago, but no reply so far. ### 5/5 — Best weather app *2020-02-09, version 5.3* Best real time weather app . Had it for years and use it for shooting photos / films and many other ways. Keep going ### 5/5 — Beach living *2020-02-07, version 5.3* I only use this app for weather. Tried others and they are not as accurate as this one, especially living in New England!!! ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-01-16, version 5.3* Can pinpoint your location. Great app. So nice to have this great app back again. Better than ever. Also the most accurate for our difficult location ## Frequently asked questions about NOAA Weather Center ### What does NOAA Weather Center do?
