### 5/5 — McCall Idaho

*2026-06-27, version 5.2.2*

We have no radar coverage in this area due to mountains that block your coverage. Yet we can see what’s coming our way
from active radar you use.

### 3/5 — Rain Alarm

*2026-06-22, version 5.0.1*

Use your love using this app. But for the last 6 years it does not let me know when rain is around.

### 5/5 — Lord Obidos

*2026-06-20, version 5.0.1*

This is brilliant. You can see rain in true time exactly where it is. Also you can see where it is coming from and where it’s going. Excellent 🚶‍♂️🐕‍🦺

### 5/5 — 😀

*2026-06-18, version 5.0.1*

Always gives me the heads up

### 4/5 — 알림 설정 횟수 제한이 아쉬워요.

*2026-06-17*

지역알림을 5개정도 설정하면 그 이상은 추가가 안되요. 유료로 모두 결제해서 사용하는데 제한이라 더 추가 못해서 이부분은 후에 업대이트로 이용가능할수 있을지 기대해봅니다.

### 5/5 — Five Star App

*2026-06-09, version 5.0.1*

The Pro version of the App does everything I want it to do, and it will probably result in the deletion of two inferior rain radar Apps from my iPhone

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-06-08, version 5.0.1*

Excellent , love it !

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-05-28, version 4.104*

Nearly always right

### 5/5 — Oh no it’s raining

*2026-05-22, version 4.104*

Love this app . So accurate

### 5/5 — Oh no it’s raining

*2026-05-13, version 4.103*

Love this app . So accurate

### 5/5 — Suuuuper App!

*2026-05-05*

Ich habe diese App seit Jahren! Ob Festival oder auf dem Weg zur Arbeit. 
Sie ist sehr genau und warnt mich vor jeglichem regen und Unwetter. 
Die App kostet nicht viel und unterstützt die Entwickler und damit auch die Funktionalität der App. 
Nur zum empfehlen! ✌️

**Developer response:** Vielen vielen Dank!

### 2/5 — Rain Alarm

*2026-05-02, version 4.103*

10 minutes too slow. No good now was brilliant.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Blue Sky but apparently it’s raining

*2026-09-03, version 5.3.0*

I keep getting notifications that it’s raining in my area even though there isn’t a cloud in the sky.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Alert to Rainfall

*2026-07-06, version 5.2.2*

Your Rain Alarm seems  to send alerts for rainfall which isn’t near me or headed towards me. Yet, when we receive rainfall or a storm, I do not receive a warning. Why so useless?

### 1/5 — New update

*2026-06-19, version 5.0.1*

I don’t know why the app has been updated as it’s now pretty useless and not picking up any local rain showers. It’s pouring with rain outside and app shows clear! Bring back the old version that worked.

### 1/5 — App went to sht

*2026-06-14, version 4.78*

This app used to be very accurate with its weather projection I’ve noticed in the last 8 months or so that’s no longer the case. The app calls for rain everyday sometimes the day it is unless it isn’t raining. Currently looking for a new more accurate app I’m not sure if this one was sold to someone that dgaf or what but it’s less than 1 star from me

### 1/5 — Rain Alarm

*2026-05-29, version 4.104*

10 minutes too slow. No good now was brilliant. No point in using it.

### 1/5 — What is the point?

*2026-05-18, version 4.104*

All it does is show the rain in the past hour, we know what has just gone. We want to know what’s going to happen in the future.

### 1/5 — Rain Alarm

*2026-05-13, version 4.103*

10 minutes too slow. No good now was brilliant. No point in using it.

### 1/5 — Cookies cookies and more cookies

*2026-05-03, version 4.103*

By the time I got half way through rejecting the vendor cookies I’d lost interest and deleted the app.

### 1/5 — Autorisations consentements

*2026-04-11*

Dans les préférences concernant mes données, je décoche tous les consentements fournisseurs.
Je confirme mes choix.
Lorsque je retourne sur gérer mes consentements, tous est à nouveaux cochés…
Je refais la même manipulation et à chaque fois ça me recoche tous et autorise les fournisseurs 
Est ce normal.
Je suis donc obligé de supprimer cet application.

### 1/5 — Inutile

*2026-03-27*

Annonce la pluie qui est déjà tombée

### 5/5 — Accurate

*2026-08-28, version 5.3.0*

Other than ads it’s great.

### 5/5 — Rain rain alarm

*2026-08-17, version 5.3.0*

I can go to my Rain Alarm app and whatever I miss I can get it on there with the weather. That’s what I like.. I use my Rain Alarm a lot. I’m going to my Apple a lot very often to check on the weather.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-04, version 5.3.0*

Good

### 5/5 — Great weather app sailing

Fabulous app very accurate and very helpful when sailing.

### 5/5 — Excellent system - very useful.

*2026-07-26, version 5.3.0*

👏👍 Brilliant system - very clever utilisation of Doppler radar. Many thanks.

### 5/5 — Preciso

*2026-07-18, version 5.3.0*

Si cuando miro un pronóstico en alguna otra aplicación tengo dudas, abro Rain Alarm y confirmo.

### 5/5 — Bestes Tool auf dem Markt

*2026-07-15*

Das ist wie gesagt das beste Tool auf dem Markt. Mir ist noch nie was anders und was Besseres untergekommen.
Ich hab das schon früh als Provision auf dem Handy gekauft und bin jetzt dabei, dass ich es wahrscheinlich auf dem macOS nachziehe.👍🏼😍

### 5/5 — Lo mejor de lo mejor

*2026-07-05, version 5.2.2*

Muy excelente aplicación ayuda en todo momento y es muy certera

### 5/5 — Easy to read

*2026-07-04, version 5.2.2*

Pictorial images that automatically track through on a loop give you go indication of when you are going to get wet .

### 5/5 — Helps me

*2026-07-02, version 5.2.2*

Pretty accurate
