Crashes immediately

This app crashes as soon as i click to open a state. Every time.

0 stars

Gives 0 data and has crap UI

Response from developer

I don't have any reports or crashes saying it reporting zero data. The actual data is provided by USGS and they do sometimes have gaps in the data for which the app will tell you when data is missing. Good luck.

7 day trend?

Recently, the 7 day trend seems to always be a 2 day trend. Otherwise, great program.

Great app

Love it.

Data is there. UI is poor

Ignoring the limitations of the Lite version, the app does not show data for your favorites without additional clicks. I'm still looking for the river level app that I want to keep on my iPad mini.
