Max Defender 8 Radar is great during Storm Season

★☆☆☆☆ doris bronson · Jun 26, 2026

The update is pretty bad always behind. At 7.59 p.m., my radar says 7.50 pm. Plus I can't see the sea breezes Please put it back the way it was. Thank you.

★☆☆☆☆ Paul Meacham · Sep 22, 2022

After this last update, the satellite view and color maps were removed. DON'T LIKE IT! From the user perspective, it was a move backwards. I now use a different station weather app. This was my go to for a few years. Now it will be replaced.

★☆☆☆☆ CHRIS #INCOGNITO · Jun 11, 2021

False ground clutter that covers the entire Tampa Bay area of the map. It's even their alot on the TV map as well, they just ignore it like it's not there. They say no rain in sight and yet there are little green blobs all over the screen. And a big intrusive ad pops up immediately. I will just use one of my other weather apps as long as this app chooses to use full screen ads.
