Ratings and Reviews
Not very useful
This app was purchased to provide up to date weather radar information. I live in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. The images provided in the writeup before I purchased the app made it look like I would be able to get radar information anywhere in the world. However, that is not possible using the current iteration of this app. I live outside the range of the radar information provided by this app. The images on the information about the app before purchasing the app were quite misleading. As well, the app I have on my phone lets me look at all radar information everywhere in the world without having to change the place the radar information is being produced. This app leaves a whole lot to be desired. Also, the information provided by the weather forecast includes only degrees F for temperature. Not too useful here. As far as I can tell, this app is actually only useful for information about weather in the USA. There is no reason it should be considered for use by people who live anywere but the USA. Disappointing and not as advertised.
