### 1/5 — Cant import

*2026-08-11, version 1.9*

I purchased a new phone and cant import any of the many years of data saved into the app on my old phone!

### 3/5 — Good until new phone

*2026-07-12, version 1.9*

Good basic tracking and viewing comparisons, but frustrating it can’t synch to cloud to avoid having to export and start again when you get a new phone. Seems the export format is not same as what the import option requires so will need to manually intervene to track on new phone.

### 4/5 — Time

*2026-05-02, version 1.9*

The app is great but who checks their rain gauge at midnight. The standard time for checking gauges is 9:00am . That should be the default time in the app.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2026-03-22*

Good app, just need the option of one time pay to remove the ads.

### 1/5 — Langue

*2026-03-07, version 1.9*

Je la voudrais en français

### 4/5 — OK

*2026-02-27, version 1.9*

Seems OK, but I've been unable to import my rain data no matter what I do. Access error to import the file :-(

### 4/5 — App closes when entering data

*2026-02-23, version 1.9*

Great for tracking rainfall.

App needs some work to not close when entering data each time

### 5/5 — Easy as

*2026-01-17, version 1.9*

The tracker is in my hand , so as soon as I look at the rain fall it’s on my phone. The graph and other data is right in front of me. This is the best

### 2/5 — Clunky

*2025-12-30, version 1.9*

Can’t find a yearly total button?????

### 2/5 — Useless

*2025-12-06, version 1.9*

You can’t enter a partial inch.  It rounds up or down to nearest inch.  There is a big difference between 1.5” and 2”
