Description by Paul Wagener (from Google Play)
Never stand in the rain again! Rain Alert sends you a push notification when it is going to rain at your location.

Available for Germany, British Isles, Finland and the Netherlands.

- Smooth rain cloud animations allow you to see down to the minute what the situation was and is going to be.

- Customize the radar images colors, transparency, speed and forecast time.

- See at a glance how many minutes you have before the next rain cloud with the handy precipitation graph.

- Immediately see the radar after opening the app with lightning fast download speed!

- Possible to specify any location in the UK or Ireland that you want to receive alerts for.

- With the 'Track me' GPS option your alert is always relevant, wherever you are!

- Choose how many minutes in advance you want to be notified.

- Do you want to be warned for a light drizzle or a streaming downpour? Specify how heavy the rain needs to be before you get notified.

- Don't want to be notified every 5 minutes? You can limit how many notifications you get!

- Specify a time limit to prevent notifications from waking you up in the middle of the night.

- Choose from 11 rain-related sounds, such as a single drip or an intense thunder.

- Touch 'More Info' to see exactly why you are getting the alerts that you are getting.

- Set up to 5 different alerts. All the above options can be set for individual alerts so you can set multiple alerts for multiple locations with different sounds.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Comments on Rain Alerts for Android

★★★★★ Varaloba One · May 17, 2021
Still the best and extremely accurate, hope that the developer will update soon. An extremely well-designed and thought out app, with so much customization available. Although the apps say “Available for Germany, British Isles and the Netherlands”, I contacted the extremely helpful developer, who advised me that Finland, where I live is covered, so if in doubt, make contact to check the areas covered, as it seems many parts of Europe are there. On opening the screen, it shows Netherlands, but go into settings, activate “track me”, together with your personal settings, you can then move the map wherever you want, perhaps until you find your home position, and zoom in / out to your preference, then look for “home screen” in settings and “set current view as home screen”, so now each time the app is opened, this becomes your default, which can easily be changed to suit. The beauty of this app, is that you can set, past radar AND future radar (up to 4 hours), which is great to see predicted rainfall (most rain radar apps end at current time!). Notifications can also be tailored to suit, as can so many other settings, I am very happy with the level of accuracy. Adverts are minimal, but the purchase price is very reasonable, so I decided to purchase straight away. There are some negative comments on Play Store, but these are probably from users outside the range of the app, or those who have not fully understood the settings or capability of the app. Would certainly recommend, don’t forget the on-screen widget.

The app was good for a short while but soon developed a fault. On opening, a message now always appears saying "An error occurred on downloading. Try again." Try again makes no difference
★★☆☆☆ Annette · Feb 6, 2026
This app has been my go to for years. Very simple, but also accurate. However, for the last month its stopped working. Says there's a data outage. Please, Mr Developer can you fix this. I love the radar widget and have it on my home screen. Been having to look at other apps since your app is broken but nothing as good as yours. Please fix your app.

Misleading crap Seems like a UK-only app, does nothing for the USA, etc. This should be displayed upfront. Also, very spammy. Wasted my time.
