### 3/5 — Meh

*2026-08-29, version 1.8.1*

The radar and future radar is pretty decent, but notifications do not exist. I changed all of my settings to what the app recommends to get notifications. I waited for severe weather to come to my area, and I never got a single warning.

### 2/5 — Was good,update ruined it

*2026-08-21, version 1.8.1*

I’m a certified weather spotter in this app was amazing for following the track of storms and seeing alerts for tornadoes and the other NWS alerts. However, the most recent app update remove the weather, warning, polygons from the map and now I find it not as useful as before.

### 4/5 — 9/26

*2026-08-18, version 1.8.1*

Maps wrong!
Should read.
Gulf of America 🇺🇸

### 4/5 — Good app.

*2026-08-11, version 1.8.1*

Well design app with lots of data available.  Only complaint is it doesn’t have a dark mode.  The all white menus hurt my eyes.

### 4/5 — excellent app.

*2026-07-28, version 1.8.1*

I am an advamced skywarn storm spotter, I have no problem recommending this app. the one nitpick I have is that with apple voiceover as I am a blind spotter, when you ad locations you need screen recognition but that's simple enough other than that its excellent. I spotted a bug and they fixed it very quickly. said something at night, woke up the next morning and was fixed. these guys are great and I am very very picky with my weather data. only other app that comes close to this is wxl23 and if you've never used that app its one of the best apps out there.

### 2/5 — Complicated to use

*2026-07-27, version 1.8.1*

I love the concept and being able to look at different radar stations, depending on where you are and what not.  but the app itself is so hard to use.  the map has so many different settings and all these settings are in completely different places. I wish it was laid out so that it was a lot more user-friendly.

### 5/5 — The favorite

*2026-07-22, version 1.8.1*

The best download now

### 5/5 — The best my far

*2026-07-20, version 1.8.1*

Off all the radar apps I’ve seen and used this is by far the easiest and simplistic to use. It has the best design and layout. As someone who works in the meteorology department I understand all the tools and still find to the best. It’s radar is top notch and high quality, the composite tool is great for looking at past events, I use the satellite tool to post what storms look like all the time, the models tool is absolutely wonderful with everything you can think of. The outlooks tool is also great for looking at all forecast on the national levels. And don’t even get me started on the burger menu and all its tools. And oh I forgot the warning menu. Oh, and even all the customization available! I could go on all day about this app. AND ITS STILL GETTING UPDATES ALL THE TIME. It’s hard to not rate this as a 5 star. Nothing comes close.

### 5/5 — Best Weather App of All Time!

*2026-07-19, version 1.8.1*

This is an amazing weather app. It has everything you need to know all in one app! It also includes SPC outlooks, live webcams, live storm chasers, every single model you can imagine. Also with Y’all Mode, you can share your location with Ryan Hall, Y’all and Yallbot. Also, you can get even MORE features with the plus and pro subscriptions! I haven’t even mentioned half of the features. This app is always updating too. I definitely recommend this app. There is sooo many features that it’s surprising that I only have ONE complaint about it, and that’s the webcams. It’s not that they don’t work, but there’s none in Wyoming, North and South Dakota, Montana, Nebraska, Texas, and some more. Other than that the webcams are fully functional and you definitely should get this app.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-07-09, version 1.8.1*

I use this app everyday.  It’s the best weather app I’ve had and I’ve had most of them.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-07-09, version 1.8.1*

I have the pro version and, coming from RadarOmega, am overall very satisfied with all the great features.  However, as feedback, I have had ongoing issues with the startup screen not loading and having to restart more than once; and also the storm chaser location tracking mode not following automatically, without having to manually refresh the screen.  Also, it would be nice if turning on the locate feature was one easy quick button, instead of hidden in a menu, especially when I am driving in the middle of particularly nasty weather.  Love the app though.

### 5/5 — Best Weather App

*2026-07-03, version 1.8.1*

I’ve used many radar and weather apps over the years, and this is by far, hands-down, the best. Community and creator support is amazing, not to mention what Ryan Hall is doing to back this app.

### 5/5 — Best app in history

*2026-07-02, version 1.8.1*

Couldn’t ask for a better weather app as a train weather spot plus the Ryan Hall y’all Collab is really really really fun. I am having one issue though when I record a MP3 for the screen recording on the app. I cannot send it to GroupMe. Can y’all fix this? That’s the only problem I have.

### 5/5 — All around great

*2026-07-02, version 1.8.1*

By far my favorite weather app. It has everything I need in one place, radar imaging, satellite imaging, models, outlooks. An all around fantastic app that only gets better! Can’t wait to see what else you guys have planned!

### 4/5 — Great weather radar app

*2026-07-01, version 1.8.1*

The app is great for both the United States and Canada. As someone from Canada, it’s hard to find weather radar apps that are free or low-cost, include watches and warnings, and can show so many possible tilts for radar. I have yet to find a better radar app than this.

However, for whatever reason, even when I select different units for altitude, it’s still measured in kilofeet regardless. Please fix this. Additionally, it would be helpful to be able to change the tilt without needing to open the radar menu every time.

Other than that, the app works very well, and I would highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Missing info

*2026-06-28, version 1.8.1*

The Gulf of America is labeled wrong, but we love the app. No pop up ads like others

### 5/5 — Beats MyRadar!

*2026-06-25, version 1.8.1*

Been a user and subscriber to MyRadar for a few years, but I wanted to try another app. Then I find WeatherWise, coming in with radar to radar reflectivity, velocity, and other radar products all for FREE, compared to MyRadar. Instantly WeatherWise was a hit to me. The continuous updates the team have been putting out are great. The amount of storm chasers I can instantly watch via the app is useful to see what a nasty storm on radar is looking like. The recent update of iOS notifications support and critical alert notifications support has finally pushed me to replace MyRadar with WeatherWise. Definitely recommend this app to any weather enthusiasts. Hoping to see a CarPlay app soon!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — horrifically inaccurate

*2026-08-21, version 1.8.1*

this app used to be great, i don't know what happened. it has been incredibly inaccurate recently, and considering the weather we've been getting recently, the inaccuracies are dangerous. fix ts immediately

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-07-15, version 1.8.1*

Interface sucks, function sucks, bugs and glitches, probably because ai made it

### 1/5 — Gulf of America

*2026-07-15, version 1.8.1*

I’m not gonna download a app or contribute to any app that has no love for America. It says the Gulf of Mexico on the maps and it is not the Gulf of Mexico. It is the Gulf of America.

### 1/5 — Cancelled

*2026-06-02, version 1.7.0*

Cancelled but keep getting charged

### 1/5 — No benefit

*2026-05-30, version 1.7.0*

Phone overheat battery drain  not for a person that just wants to see radar

### 1/5 — Double charged

*2026-04-26, version 1.5.1*

I upgraded from plus to premium and got charged for both.

### 1/5 — Major bug

*2026-04-02, version 1.4.2*

I’m unable to lower the white info tab to view the radar in full screen.

### 1/5 — Not for me

*2026-03-12, version 1.4.1*

Way too much clutter, doesn’t need a homescreen/widgets to add to the clutter, we all have the standard iPhone weather app for current conditions. All the Ryan hall stuff is annoying, I can’t even watch his screen anymore because all he cares about is viewers, money and saying plumb wild.  Thank god we have Max Velocity now.   My advice, if you’re a weather nut, just pay the 10 bucks for radar scope.

### 1/5 — Good But Alerts?!

*2026-03-12, version 1.4.1*

Um why do I need to see alerts for the entire US? I want just my area or even just my state. It seems there is no way to do this and the only way to remove the 400+ warnings/alerts is to turn them off completely which is counter-intuitive for a weather app…🤨

UPDATE: Thank you for the response, I found the menu you for setting for the weather alerts widget it says “There are no settings available for this widget”…

### 1/5 — No Storm Tracks

*2026-03-11, version 1.4.1*

No ability to turn on and off storm tracks.
Radar map can get pretty cluttered with a lot of the other nonsense quickly

### 5/5 — Number one for radar and weather

*2026-08-29, version 1.8.1*

I dumped WeatherBug because they now insist on loud obnoxious ads over the top of the app, and suddenly stopped providing weather alerts for severe weather, despite my not making changes on that setting. WeatherWise has far superior radar, ability to enable storm tracks, and provides weather alerts. My new number one weather app.

### 5/5 — Easy

*2026-08-20, version 1.8.1*

I’m not a meteorologist I want to be but I use this app for now and I think its quite easy to use and it has nice tools but I feel like somethings missing I just can’t figure it out but I love this app.

### 5/5 — nice for chasing and nice for safety

*2026-08-15, version 1.8.1*

Really good app for storm chasing and knowing wearer I recommend it

### 5/5 — Wow!!

*2026-08-14, version 1.8.1*

App is amazing!!! There are so many adjustments it’s a bit overwhelming but spending time in the app is definitely worth it. Hands down the most detailed weather reporting app.

### 5/5 — App is amazing.

*2026-08-14, version 1.8.1*

You would suspect this app to be an inaccurate, made up radar app, but it actually uses official radars, official outlooks, models, and so much more! I think a really cool feature is that you can view traffic cameras and sounding images! Excellent app for people who don't know anything about the weather to the most experienced! You can also buy Plus or Pro which are a very good price for what you get. This app is a free and better version of radarscope. However, I have one singular con, the hourly is very inaccurate most of the time. However, 10/10 app! Very good. I would also recommend the web version on computer!

### 5/5 — Absolutely perfect

*2026-08-13, version 1.8.1*

All other free weather apps are always missing something I want, but WeatherWise is perfect. It consistently gets updates and has so many weather models including satellites. Theres so much more I cant even say it all.

### 5/5 — Best Weather app for Nowcasting

*2026-08-09, version 1.8.1*

WeatherWise is without a doubt the most comprehensive, intuitive, and detailed nowcasting app that exists in the world today. Everything from viewing radar to viewing complex models and satellite data is made very easy to navigate through the app. 5/5 stars from me.

### 5/5 — Best Weather App

*2026-08-08, version 1.8.1*

I’ve tried them all and this is the best.

### 5/5 — Best Free Weather App

*2026-07-31, version 1.8.1*

This weather app is full of very advanced and useful tools to track weather conditions. As well as being very easy to use with its clean and neat interface.

### 5/5 — Best weather app ever

*2026-07-24, version 1.8.1*

This weather app is superior compared to any other. It has tons of features and is perfect if your either just a avg person looking at weather or a storm enthusiast chasing storms. I have never found an app (especially a mobile app) as good as weather wise. Keep up the great work and keep adding more features!!
