Ratings and Reviews
Buy only if you want eye candy
I teach weather and I was looking for something inexpensive to give live imagery and real-time radar data. To the point — the application has no controls (e.g., zoom, elapse time, specific location, …). It is nothing more than fixed-size image data with limited resolution and limited viewing areas.
The application is more Eye Candy than a tool to view radar information. Save your money and go to any of the free weather websites such as Wunderground or Intellicast to get real-time high-resolution radar images.
I’m sorry, but I cannot see how this application can be useful, especially since it crashed 3 times when first using it — it is a good example of you get what you pay for.
Very Limited in Scope and Function
This app offers nothing one can't get for free online. You cannot control the animations and cycle through the time periods which can allow you to see exactly when a heavy rain burst (for example) will occur. It offers practically nothing in the way of wind event tracking. Unbeliefvably, it doesn NOT provide NWS storm watches and warnings. At this writing our area is under a wind warning (highest alert level) for high winds and heavy rain and flooding. And of course in typical fashion the Apple App store would not issue a refund when I tried to claim one. I would issue a "no stars" for this if one was available.
Terrible, don’t waste your money
I can’t see my area on the map because the radar constantly has noise (a big blob of it in the center of the frame), and you cannot zoom in or out, or make the window larger. The window on the right, you cannot move the map around, only fixed views of areas and half of the time it is blank, or moving so fast you can’t tell what is happening. I would really like to have my money back.
