Customer Reviews

Information Overload (2 stars)
WOW! There's a lot of data in there. Better reach for your readers to view this gem. Lot's of reminders to upgrade. To many settings to keep track of. US radar is just a feed from NOAA's free mobile websites. Outside the US radar is just a macro image from various NEXRAD satellites. If you consider yourself anal-retentive this apps for you. Have fun.

Misleading (1 star)
The screen shots show no ads, but there is a big banner across the bottom of the screen, and it costs $4.99 to remove them. Other weather apps only charge .99 cents for ad free versions. Rip off.

Plus, they try to pack too much info on one screen, which makes it busy and hard to read. It's great having access to all this data, but the interface needs to be cleaner and easier on the eyes.

Plus, as much as they overwhelm you

Great app- does it all! (5 stars)
This is the best weather app. I don't understand why other weather apps are so popular; this one has them all beat by a mile
Should not be so expensive to upgrade
