HD Radar no longer available

Have used this app for ages it is great HOWEVER HD Radar appears to be no longer available. Shame will have to find something else

Cannot stop it collecting personal data

After using the app for a while, it now requires my consent for the commercial use of my personal data. But there is no way to Reject All. Instead there are hundreds of so-called “legitimate interest” boxes that must be unticked. These are hidden within many subsections that must be individually opened. It is difficult, probably impossible to tell if you have unticked them all. Is this even legal? So I will delete the app.

Too snoopy

Was a great app, but privacy settings now too onerous. The list of third parties and vendors getting your information is almost endless, it is impractical to go through them all to switch off and no “reject all”button! Pity.

Data usage

I’ve used this app for a couple of years but I’ve deleted it now it’s joined the ranks of sending information to vendors, options accept all or manage consent. When manage consent there’s no “refuse all” just a long list of different data to vendors, so I’m not using it now. Shame

Rubbish

It’s pouring down so bad right now and according to this app, there is no rain and none in immediate future.

Lost their way.

App seems ok but combined with a flawed subscription model, it just isn’t worth it any more. I used to rely on this app almost exclusively, but when I travel, it doesn’t display anything outside the UK. With their subscription model, why bother? I don’t any more. Sad.

Appli pluie

Je l’utilise en complément de l’application météo agricole payante et très précise . Ça fonctionne bien et le radar pluie est super bien . Pour l’instant en version gratuite , possiblement si elle continue a être précise je passerais sur une version payante .

Regularly failing.......

This was one of my favourite weather apps however recently it has failed to update about 3 of 4 times. A few days of issues on a (once) good app is acceptable however this has gone on too long!
One of the main issues for me is that just when you really need it (frequent heavy showers) the app does not update possibly because it cannot cope with the volume of traffic to it?
I’ve also had issues with the renewal process.

Great app

Use this everyday. Fantastic. Note to the developers. Please add a widget on iOS.

Product is good; but charged double

This is a good product and is accurate 99% of the time.
However, they have changed their subscription system and it remains a confusing situation. The administration side badly needs to be upgraded to be fit for purpose as I have now twice been charged double with no prospect of a refund. The owners of this app (and Weather Pro) have more or less completely abdicated responsibility by simply pointing the finger at Apple (who are actually blameless) because their subscription process is flawed.
Been a customer for many many years but fed up with this double charging.

Average.

Sometimes it’s accurate and then sometimes it says it’s dry when its hammering down.

Unschlagbar bei kurzfristigen Prognosen

Ideale App, wenn man nochmal kurz raus möchte und man dafür in Kürze ein Zeitfenster sucht. Ganz toll, der Zeitverlauf über den Schieberegler, auf die Minute genau!

Wer allerdings glaubt mit "today" eine minutengenaue Vorhersage für die nächsten 24h zu bekommen, der wird enttäuscht sein, denn die Vorhersage geht nur bis maximal 1h in die Zukunft. Und selbst in der Stunde können die Daten noch korrigiert werden, sodass es zur ursprünglichen Prognose noch zu Abweichungen kommen kann. Dennoch ist es die präziseste „Kurzzeitig-Wetterapp“, die ich kenne.

Pay and adverts

I’ve used this for a decade as it is a great tool. Will not be renewing subscription now, as even with annual payment, it is subjected to minute long adverts interrupting use of service.

Rain Today triggering antivirus.

Rain Today has been working fine for me but it is now triggering my antivirus because an unwanted advertisement has appeared at the bottom. Currently Temu.

I pay a subscription.

Getting worse

Used to be great but recently so inaccurate. Used for planning car cleaning but don’t trust it just now.

Très très TRÈS bonne application !

RainToday n'est pas une simple application de météo que vous pouvez trouver partout sur l'App Store ! En effet cette application vous permet de savoir quand la pluie s'arrête et commence à la minute près ! Une option "radar" est également disponible pour montrer les averses qui traversent votre ville. Un seul défaut sur ce radar : les prévisions sont un peu étroites allant de 2h avant à 2h après mais en vrai c'est suffisant sur le moment.
Je recommande fortement !

Don’t buy

The only app that I have paid for and the only app that is consistently WRONG!

🤘

Wow this app is so good and helps me out so much when going out.. just perfect 😍

A once brilliant app, but no longer.

Recent changes have meant that the premium features no longer work. Pay, and get ads… This has been going on for months now.

New rip off subscription model

I’ve been using the Rain Today app along with their other app Weather Pro for a number of years, purchasing a single annual subscription to use premium features on both my iPhone and iPad. I’ve been very happy with the product up until now. Today being the time of the year when I opened Weather Pro on my iPhone it said my premium subscription had expired and to renew to get the features back. So I renewed expecting as other years that this would also renew Rain Today on both iPhone and iPad. How WRONG was I. The subscription successfully activated Weather Pro on my iPhone but when I opened up Rain Today I got a message that I also needed to subscribe to it to get premium features back. Thinking they were now just treating both apps as separate I stupidly subscribed to Rain Today on my iPhone. Imagine my shock and horror when opening the two apps on my iPad using the same Apple account to find that they were now longer premium and that a further two subscriptions would be needed to activate them. So that’s gone from 1 subscription to 4 subscriptions to now get the same as before. WHAT A RIP OFF. None of this was mentioned in the pop up box telling me my subscription had expired, just the same message as in previous years. This must have caught many out. I consider this huge change in terms of conditions without any warning illegal and have contacted the developer for a full refund as a result. If I fail to get justice I will be contacting the Apple App Store and suggesting they pull the apps until they make it clear that you are purchasing a subscription to a single app on a single device, not as previously. I have never come across another app where you have to pay again to use the same app on another Apple device using the same account. BLATENT RIP OFF NEEDS TO REMOVED UNTIL THIS IS MADE CLEAR
