I switched to this app last night before a big storm. In the first 5 minutes I “lost connection to the server” and couldn’t reconnect for 20 minutes. Had to switch back to Apple weather during that time just to see what was going on. The radar is also constantly out of sync, 15 min behind, is stuck in some bug where it doesn’t show Live, it only shows the radar for a 30 min span 5 hours ago… this app was miserable from start to finish, I really don’t know how it is rated so well. Cancelled my subscription.

1. Does not show active current screenshot of radar on iPhone widget. Have to tap to open and still no active live current radar screen until you hit the play button. This is very poor. 2. Cannot choose “current location” have to choose specific location. Very poor. 3. Apple Watch complication with radar does not show radar until you tap the watch, then tap radar. Very poor. RadarScope shows you live active screenshot of radar on Apple Watch without tapping anything. Look at Watch. It’s there. Your app is not competitive.

I understand the need and use for ads in applications that are free. However, this application takes it to an all new level. I have never in my life, viewed a radar and been interrupted in the middle of watching a radar animation to have an ad pop-up what's worse is they use the kind of ads used by other applications, like words with friends that make you watch a video.this shows the immaturity of the marketing and development people involved with this app who think that the more ads they throw at you the more it'll motivate you to purchase the ad free version. Problem is the opposite is true better just to leave the ads out altogether, and have the merits of premium featureswarrant and encourage someone to upgrade. This is no better than Clickbait articles that are full of advertisements and pop-ups. There are too many excellent weather applications available today. Maybe they should take some time and learn from those apps.

As a mom in Florida, juggling schedules is tough, especially with our unpredictable weather. That's where Rainviewer has been a lifesaver. Its rain notifications are spot-on, giving m a heads-up before those sudden downpours hit. Whether it's planning a park day or a school run, feel more prepared. The app is super user-friendly - even in the middle of hectic mornings, I can quickly check it. The real-time radar is a bonus, especially for explaining to my curious kids why we might need to switch plans. Overall, RainViewer help me making my life a bit easier. I absolutely recommend it to any parent dealing with weather quirks!

( This review is for the iPad version of the app) I have been using RainViewer for years now, I was once a subscriber during its old new to the stage era, but lately, with the new versions of this app, my experience has been disappointing, to say the least. While the app provided me with a fast and easy user experience, it has since become glitchy and unresponsive.One of the main issues I've encountered is that the app often freezes and takes a long time to load. This can be frustrating when I need to quickly check the radar. Additionally, the app sometimes restarts every preset or setting that I saved before.Another problem I've noticed is that changing layers doesn't work very smoothly, it takes ages to load satellite images on 1 Gb of internet speed. Furthermore, the app's user interface is not very intuitive and looks bad. Especially, the city's hourly & daily weather information page.Overall, While it may have been useful in the past, the glitches and problems I've experienced make it too unreliable to rely on for accurate weather information. I hope everything gets addressed and fixed soon, to bring this app back to its former glory.
