What’s wrong? ### 3/5 — Forecast says N/A for all days & times *2024-05-04, version 1.27* For the last few days or week the “current” page is fine but all the rest says NA. LOT is our radar station. Live in Glenview Illinois. I’m on iOS current version. ### 2/5 — No forecasts for days *2024-05-04* Used to be my favorite weather app. No more, not having forecasts for days especially when tornadoes and thunderstorms are forming makes it sort of useless. ### 2/5 — Continues to get worse *2023-09-27, version 1.25* Had a month or so with no local radar view and now the radar views are not even close to being accurate with echoes being displaced miles to the northeast of where the storms actually are. Thinking of deleting the app. ### 2/5 — Unreliable Service *2023-09-16, version 1.25* This Ap used to be great, awesome in fact but here lately, last few weeks the Ap has been down on and off and is no longer reliable to continue use with any consistency, unfortunately having to look for another radar Ap. ### 4/5 — Fixed the local data issue, thanks *2023-09-04, version 1.25* Devs fixed issue where no local radar was showing, but national radar worked. Issue persisted for 1-2 months (during draught period when we didn’t need to check) but now works. Will improve rating if it stays up consistently ### 1/5 — What happened? *2023-08-31, version 1.23* Just stopped working. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Stays in the same time loop *2024-12-11, version 1.34* My app has been stuck in the same time loop. Cannot get current radar loops ### 1/5 — Might as well look outside *2024-10-07, version 1.32* Never seems to work when it’s getting ready to storm. IDK ### 1/5 — Radar in 5 minutes *2024-07-02, version 1.31* Was a great app before they put the ads that don’t work correctly in. Now I have to close the app and reopen, watch the ad again, hope it doesn’t break. So it’s not radar now anymore, it’s radar in 5 minutes. ### 1/5 — N/A *2024-05-04, version 1.27* I use this app for years. But now it only says NA when you look for the hourly updates. I guess it’s time to move on. ### 1/5 — App is junk. Again. *2024-05-03, version 1.27* Stopped providing forecasts. Interestingly, my previous review seems to be missing. ### 1/5 — No Information *2024-05-02, version 1.27* Hourly info has been N/A for days; radar also not working. Submitted contact requests with no response. ### 1/5 — No dark mode. *2024-04-10, version 1.27* Deleted. ### 1/5 — Was good *2023-09-21, version 1.25* The is app is now completely unreliable. It’s visuals have changed on the map and is about 20 - 30 minutes behind what’s actually happening. Return it to what it was!! ### 1/5 — Best *2023-09-01, version 1.24* I’ve tried em all. This one wins. ### 1/5 — Not working even with my premium *2023-08-31, version 1.23* Still no local radars as off 8/31/2023. Links to support not going through. Used to love this program because it seemed most up to date and local view besides the optional radars I guess I going looking for another program ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Still the best! *2026-08-30, version 1.37* I’ve been using and recommending this app for over 10 years. I just recommended it once again and I thought I’d stop in a give it a review. Still love it!!! ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-08-10, version 1.37* The best app at displaying NWS Doppler radars extremely quick and accurate. This is the app you need if interested in your local weather conditions. I’ve used it for years 5/5 ### 5/5 — Easy weather view. *2025-10-29, version 1.37* Love the updates y’all just put in. Dark mode makes things much more visible to locations you may be traveling to. Easier to see secondary roadways also. Keep up the good work. Weather forecast on tv don’t give me any insurance. Your app lets me see what is here an what is coming. Really enjoying the composite view while staying within a zoom range of your present location ### 5/5 — Easy and Fast *2025-07-02, version 1.35* By far the easiest and fastest way to look at a radar map and your local conditions with speed and ease. No need to scroll looking for something like humidity. Best WX app out there, especially for pilots. ### 5/5 — Go-to radar app for years-Paid version *2024-08-31, version 1.32* Thanks for extended 7-day forecast. I'm a driver and this app is open during weather events. Covers majority N Am including Canada, Continental USA: Alaska mainland (inc. 1/2 Aleutian Islands), slice of west Greenland, Hawaiian Islands and south Central America to 98% of Nicaragua. Paid version well worth it: no Ads. ### 5/5 — Amazing!! *2024-07-04, version 1.31* 5 stars ### 5/5 — Update to get rid of N/A *2024-05-09, version 1.28* As many have recently pointed out in their reviews, the forecast now just states N/A. That happened to me as well and I was ready to ditch the app but I updated it and now it is working appropriately. ### 5/5 — Got it right *2024-02-28, version 1.26* Long term user through the good times and not so good times. Updates and graphics got it fixed……nice job. ### 5/5 — Best straightforward radar app. *2021-10-02, version 1.20* Had this very handy and unobtrusive app on several of my iPhones over the years. The ads on free version were very low key but I finally sprung the one time $4.99 to ditch the ads. Great app! ### 5/5 — 100th *2021-08-11, version 1.20* 100th comment :) --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
