Hail Protector gives you real-time hail storm tracking and instant alerts so you can protect your vehicles before damage strikes. Powered by live NEXRAD radar data, National Weather Service warnings, and Storm Prediction Center forecasts, Hail Protector monitors threats across all your locations and tells you exactly when to act.
HOW IT WORKS
Add your vehicles and locations to get started. Hail Protector continuously monitors weather conditions and alerts you the moment a hail threat is detected. See exactly how far the storm is, estimated time of arrival, predicted hail size, and threat confidence.
REAL-TIME STORM TRACKING
Track individual storm cells using NEXRAD radar data. Each threat shows distance, ETA, predicted hail size, and confidence percentage. Threats are ranked by severity so you always know which vehicle needs attention first.
MULTI-VEHICLE MANAGEMENT
Track unlimited vehicles across multiple locations. See which vehicles are protected and which are at risk — all in one dashboard. Toggle cover status with a single tap.
SMART ALERTS
Receive push notifications and email alerts when hail threatens your vehicles. Choose from three sensitivity levels to balance early warning with notification frequency.

My first Hail Protector lasted over 10 years and was one of the first the company made. I used it countless times here in North Texas and I’m pleased to say it never saw one drop of hail - but I don’t care, it felt so good just knowing my treasured motor was well protected out there each time the threat of hail arose.I had to buy a new one those eleven or so years later because some of the stitching and fabric eventually gave way causing too much air to escape for the unit to inflate fully. BUT, I see on my replacement those issues appear to have been fixed with reenforcement in vulnerable areas.You do need to give yourself ten minutes or so to deploy the unit and likewise to pack it away, but if you care about your vehicle and don’t want to be either driving it around with hail dents all over it or dealing with the hassle of repair shops and insurance companies, then this unit is a sound investment.
Where have you been all my life?

Just kidding, but living in North Texas this app is a must have. I love the national map so I can get a view of what is going on overall and the local weather map is better than others I have used. Keep developing the app with more features please!

Terrible App - Be Warned It's an annual subscription
NinjaCyclist
This is the worst app I have ever used. It does not effectively alert you when hail is imminent in your area. The worst part is, the $4.99 is an annual subscription. If you purchase the app for $4.99, every year on the purchase date you will be charged the $4.99. The purchase shows on your CC statement as GOOGLE*Hail Protector, however when you call the toll free number (which is for GOOGLE), Google cannot find a record of your pruchase, so you are unable to cancel the subscription. Next stop Apple to see if they can cancel this unauthorized subscription. You have been warned.
Complete rebuild with real-time NEXRAD hail tracking, push and email alerts, multi-vehicle management, and interactive storm maps.
