★★★★★ HG ! · Nov 28, 2016
Excellent weather app for a local station Bravo you did an excellent job on this weather app very impressed I love the satellite section of the app you've done a very incredible job on this app I am very impressed. You just need to do a little bit more on the widget make that a little bit more attractive, and I think you've got it 100% keep up the good work thank you very much I've lived here for thirty years you guys have done quite a lot we appreciate it
★★★★☆ DsrtDee Spock-Rocks · Feb 18, 2021
Only objection is constant vibration as if alert but none. Assume its weather / Temp change on notification bar? It bugs me! Bzz bzz bzz too much!
★★☆☆☆ Jeff Godtland · Aug 16, 2019
Used to work great, then update made it crash occasionally, now all I get is opening splash
★★☆☆☆ Paye Carrillo · Dec 16, 2023
Disappointed you should have more radar options.
★☆☆☆☆ srive1 · Feb 19, 2019
No terms and conditions information regarding the ads you must agree to allow to get the app. Without knowing what I am agreeing to, I refuse to use the app.
