I’m deleting it because it’s not accurate at all

I downloaded this app a week ago and three different days and several times on each one of those three days it tells me it’s going to either rain or drizzle and it hasn’t done either in the week I’ve had it on my iPad and iPhone. I am deleting it when I’m done with this review.

Fast Radar View of Rain

Does exactly what I wanted. There’s enough changes in the settings to where I get the immediate view of incoming rain relative to my position. And that’s all I need. 👍🏼⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hi there, thanks for sharing your feedback. We're not quite sure what went wrong here, could you tell us a bit more about what happened? Feel free to reach out via app settings > Send Feedback > Send Email so we can take a closer look and help out.

Does not show your location

Needs your location marked so you can judge incoming weather precisely. Currently it’s just a guess unless you zoom way in on the map. 👎🏼

Version payante en une seule fois

Bonjour. Bravo pour votre application. Néanmoins, a quand une version payante en une seule fois ? Merci par avance pour votre retour.

Hi there, thank you so much for the kind words! Right now we only offer subscription plans, we did have a one-time purchase option in the past, but that changed a few years back. We appreciate you asking though, and we'll keep it in mind

Alerts do not work

The whole reason I tried this app was that I wanted a real time alert for rain as I sometimes have expensive astrophotography equipment outside. I paid for a subscription and set up alerts. It is literally raining as I write this, and the app did nothing.

No good

Terrible. Opacity is too much. Can’t see county lines. Worthless.

Useless unless you buy it

Other free apps offer far more information, and this one is deliberately limited. This app often has issues connecting to the server, constantly nags you to subscribe, and the most recent change to the free version removed radar coverage for my town.

Thank you so much for the great rating, we really appreciate your support!

Not great, never syncs

Before I paid for the app it worked no problem. The moment I paid the map does not sync. I have to keep manually turning off map then back to 2 hours to sync it. I set up notifications correctly to only give me major rain but no….it beeps on drizzle no matter what setting I have. I’m asking for a refund but I doubt I’ll get it. Subscription cancelled. Waste of good money. Back to the free met office app for me.

Privacy issues

Please don’t use an app that tracks you even when not using the app. Egregious behavior should not be rewarded. Why ddi you need to surrender your privacy to see if it will rain?

Slow

To notify me that rain is coming it’s fair. On my first storm when i try to see the radar there was nothing and it takes forever to upload info. 2 other app i have had the info right away. Not worth the money.

Hi. We've made quite a few improvements over the past month, how is the app performing for you now? If you run into any serious issues again, please reach out via app settings > Send Feedback > Send Email. Regards

加载等很久，希望能优化网络设置

打开雷达图或者卫星雷达图，加载需要等很久才能显示图层，播放完整动画就更久甚至需要等数分钟。平移画面会出现分割图块始终加载不出来，行政底图加载也慢，雷达图层加载也慢，网络优化有待提高。
