When I open the app, it often won’t refresh for a few minutes and I’ll be stuck only being able to see up to roughly 20 minutes ago. I would like this app much more if it would refresh more often.
This is a good app I was outside and on the app i saw a big rainstorm coming so I love this app it saved me from the winds
Update made it a paid option now. Sadly goodbye
It used to be that the radar would update every 7 - 8 minutes. Now it updates every 20. That makes the app virtually worthless, especially in severe weather situations. My app is up to date.
I’ve been using this for years now free version I don’t subscribe, but I think that this is consistently accurate helpful and it gives you different view options, depending on the time of year so that you can adjust to what works best for that season.
Less than the best now that all the options are paid only!!! Wasn’t that they 6 months ago. Update the app and boom, functionality gone.
Have you paid any attention to your latest rev.. we now have hail storms standing still.. dumping 20 to 30 inches or more.. and hailstones the size of bowling balls..
Cannot use anymore - getting prompted to pay even though I have 2 months left on my subscription. Loved the app but deleting and looking for an alternative.
Best radar because it is not ten-20 minutes late !
Bought this app many years ago and it has been slowly losing features to now require subscription on top of ads on startup to encourage buying their subscription. Shameless greed and reneging on previous purchase agreement.
It’s important to be able to see current weather conditions especially when dangerous conditions exist. This app shows “now” which is actually 20 minutes ago lag time. The developer has the ability to show current conditions but chooses not to, which becomes a danger to the users instead of a reliable source of information about current weather conditions. I updated the app, and now there is a 16 minute delay instead of a 20 minute delay. So folks can get the important severe weather AFTER it’s already happened. Do better. This should not be allowed on the App Store marketplace.

For years, this was my favorite weather app. Once they added the paywall, the normal features stopped working on my iPhone. I can see the map, but no matter what layers I choose, the app will no longer show me the data. I am assuming that I’m still supposed to be able to see some layers with the recent weather up to now displayed. This app no longer does that, so I must assume it is also gotten very buggy. I don’t mind paying for absence services that I use, but I refuse to pay top dollar for an weather subscription that doesn’t work.

Why does it take 25min to refresh?? I get warnings and there is nothing to see. Or the rain might be gone and the radar shows that it should have been raining. This could put me in harm’s way.
Been using this app for years. With event update it gets worse and worse. Scrub bar is in an inconvenient place. 6 hour look forward is up ridiculously fast. I am going to unsubscribe, much better apps are now available.
Good app .. wait for a sale
Who needs another wallet-sucking parasitic subscription? If the lifetime price was less, I’d consider it.
What is wrong with the app? It used to work well. Now, when I open it all I get at the bottom of the screen and a completely black screen. What’s the deal? I’ve deleted and reinstalled the app twice.
Update and now I can’t use unless you sign up for subscription.
Why is my Hi-Def radar not working?
Map will not open its just black. No more subscription for me.
