Customer Reviews

Works good for me (4 stars)
Just used this in CA during our big storm this week. Radar was good and up to the minute. Zoom function worked well and also was able to move the map to see the outlaying areas. So far no issues. I like that it shows the severe wx box also. Time lapse also worked well. Good App.

Good (5 stars)
Works great just what I wanted see good radar without java

Needs improvement (3 stars)
I love this app, but it glitches out just about every time I use it, so it makes it kinda useless sometimes. If anyone else has had this problem, please respond in another rating.
