### 2/5 — Doesn’t show Drizzle

*2026-06-12, version 5.0.1*

We have heavy drizzle today yet Rain Alarm shows nothing so you’d think it’s a lovely sunny day rather than a cloudy drizzly awful day.

### 4/5 — Grundsätzlich gut!

*2026-05-27*

Schade das es einige Bereiche in Europa gibt, die nicht erfasst sind. Hätte mir im Urlaub in Griechenland ( Peloponnes) sehr geholfen. Kann man ja vielleicht ändern…

### 4/5 — 使いやすい

*2025-10-19*

雨通知正確　通知音も好みの音を選べて心地いい。

### 5/5 — Great to know

*2025-07-15, version 4.79*

This app is a must if you ride motorcycles. Good to know where the rain is coming from and going to.

### 5/5 — 変な不具合(異常な雨雲)は直った様です

*2025-06-26*

世田谷区羽根木辺りの奇妙な雨雲が出なくなりました。
有難うございました。
また引き続き、便利なアラーム機能を使わせて頂きます。

### 5/5 — I’m loyal now!

*2025-06-25, version 4.79*

I had this on my mobiles, in the previous incarnations and the current one. I’m sometimes slow in loading on to a new phone but as now it’s up and running reliably and without having to seek information elsewhere. So do as I do and stay loyal to this technology umbrella!

### 5/5 — Life saver for my job as a decorator

*2025-06-03, version 4.79*

I use this app all the time when I’m working outside. I get warned when rain is coming my way, then I can make a call on when it’ll pass and continue working in between bouts.
This app is superb! I also now use it for when I’m camping too.
Thank you.

### 5/5 — Unique Outstanding Design App!

*2025-05-14*

I am an ole man who do to Health problems am retired. So most of my time now Days is taking walks though my Country side! I have been using this Unique Outstanding Design App for many many years! It’s always been my go to app for Weather Management for me! Why is because it has always been accurate for me all through the years. I never thought back then when I started using it that it would become so important to me has it has become now Days. To say that this is a 5 Star app kind of says it all to Tell you though the years that the Developer has put a great deal of time Hard Work Sweat and yea Love into the coding of this software. Look at all the updates that have been made through the years! I really hope you will download this app and truly give it a try. I don’t believe you will be sorry! ( really ) with that I want to Thank the Developer for putting out a Unique Outstanding Design App one that for me has always been a 5 Star ⭐️ app so Mr. Developer I Tip my Hat 🎩 to you and say Thanks!

### 4/5 — Great App

*2025-05-09, version 4.78*

Great app 
However would be great to have Live Activity for Rain Precipitation and weather conditions. 
Also more widget options and customisation.

### 5/5 — Muy buenas

*2025-05-06, version 4.78*

Importante

### 3/5 — Only shows historical

*2025-04-03, version 4.78*

Purchased this to see the upcoming rain forecast for sailing. But it only shows the past timeline up until the current time. The free alternative apps show the next hour or two. Asked for a refund as £6 is a lot for what essentially is a removal of ads compared to the free version.

### 5/5 — Very useful tool

*2025-03-28, version 4.78*

Easy to see how the weather might develop in the short term

### 5/5 — Great predictor

*2025-02-24, version 4.78*

Been using it for several years. Great for calling off or continuing cricket matches. Or deciding when is a good time to find a dry spot for a stop on a cycle ride or not to even start. More useful for short term e.g. next 4 hours rain forecasting than the weather forecasts.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2025-02-20*

Great App

### 5/5 — Clear colours

*2025-01-26, version 4.77*

Easy to see rain strength. Handy to be aware when it's going to rain. Means my washing on the line is retrieved.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2025-01-23, version 4.77*

Very useful, intuitive colours for rain intensity. Used frequently. Not just an alarm, great radar information.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — No prediction

*2026-02-15, version 4.101*

Unfortunately only shows where the rain has been not where it’s going, no forecast

### 1/5 — Rain alarm pro

*2025-08-30, version 4.83*

The old rain alarm app that was free was 100% better than this app I’ve paid for, I want to see where the rain is moving too, not where it’s already been, it seems pointless

### 1/5 — Pins

*2025-06-29, version 4.79*

Can’t remove pins

### 1/5 — STOP THIS

*2025-01-16, version 4.77*

Every time I use this app a pop up asks me if I would rate the app.
I click “not now” and 10 seconds later it pops up again.
STOP IT
STOP IT
STOP IT

### 1/5 — Totally unreliable!

*2022-07-05, version 4.32*

I have used this recently, for three weeks in Menorca and it has proved itself to be wrong on every occasion. I have screenshots showing heavy rain clouds over the top of me, when the actual sky was blue and there were no clouds in sight. This has been a complete waste of money… as requested by the developer, I have removed the last part of the previous sentence. 
The app is sold on the basis that it shows where the rain is at the time that the map is viewed. I do not consider this as fully accurate, on the basis that the app often tells me that it is raining exactly where I am, despite the the sky being completely blue and the sun is shining.

### 1/5 — Only get the previous 6 hours forecast

*2020-08-10, version 3.37*

I know a lot of people that use this app and swear by it. However it simply doesn’t work right on my iPhone XS.  I only get the forecast for the previous 6 hours.  Not matter what settings I set, I cannot get a forecast for anything g ahead in time.

No response from the dev so far.

### 1/5 — Unausgereift

*2018-05-01*

Zeigt an, wenn es innerhalb eines ziemlich großen Radius regnet. Man hat ständig Alarm, wenn es 6, 8, 10 km entfernt regnet. Nett zu wissen, aber überflüssig.

### 1/5 — Fast ganz frankreich fehlt obwohl es "weltweit"anzeigen sollte

*2017-06-02*

Das geht mal gar nicht:ich wollte das für einen frankreich Urlaub haben, und jetzt ist frankreich zu 3/4 ausgegraut. Das Ding kannste vergessen. Geld ist verschenkt.

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2015-01-01, version 1.9.7*

Such a pity. I was using free version and worked flawless. I've paid the XT version in a way to collaborate with the developer. Since last update doesn't push alerts anymore.

### 1/5 — You've ruined the best weather app!!!!

*2013-07-28, version 1.8*

I'm a farmer, this app WAS the best guide to the approaching rain pattern.
This morning I was alerted to an update, after applying update, it's been replaced by the most useless! weather app! 
What have you done!? And what was you thinking??? Unbelievable.....

### 5/5 — My goto rain app

*2026-06-23, version 5.0.1*

Everything about it is great and I love the thunderclap notifications.

### 5/5 — Golf

Great get to the course and then decide to play or not, BBC weather app would mean we never play

### 5/5 — Excellent & reliable weather info...

*2025-11-29, version 4.96*
