User reviews

It’s okay, but…

I use Rain Radar AU, mostly. This app won’t allow me to pick the radar location I want. I want to choose one to the NW or West of me, as that’s where most of the rain and storms come from. But this app has chosen one to the east of me, which is a little closer, but is not showing me what is coming. The one I mainly use lets me choose any radar in the whole country. If I have family or friends in another state, I can see what is going on if there are storms there. The other app also allows a view of the whole of Australia, by blending information from all the radar stations around the country,

Lacks wind and temperature measurements

The online BOM radar page has an option to show wind and temperature measurements. This is very useful for judging when weather changes are on the way

As far as I can tell this option isnot available on this app.

Like the app

This app is great to check weather & I like to use when a storm is coming, gives you lots of accurate info.👍🏼

Slow and buggy

Half the options don’t show on the menu, really slow too. Was unusable for me. Uninstalled straight away.

Perfect for checking the weather.
