I purchased the pro version 2 years ago and the recent update took my pro version away and is asking me to buy it again!?? I tried uninstalling the pro version cause it wouldn't update normally and boom pay wall. And im not about to pay for something I already did. Ridiculous.
Lack of useful features. Didn't tell me how long ago nor did it have a way to see how far the nearest lightning strike was.
BS DOESN'T WORK !!
If you really really like ads, you'll love the sheer overwhelming amount of ads that you have to sit through to use the app.
I pay for the pro version. doesn't push notifications until I open the app. makes it useless.
Ads are too intrusive.
Locks up on full screen advertising. I can't see any weather at all. This is worthless to me. I'm UNINSTALLING this app. You have been warned. No excuses, there are other weather apps that work.
UX is awful. Now get full screen ads at random
too many notifications.
Failed miserably. Did not notify.
I do not want to know if Timbuktu has lightning I live in Brighton
its not working
the app used to work fantastic especially fighting fires, However 3 different phones later and my map is back as night like it won't load but it shows where strikes are.
Raised stars...Ad issues not resolved but somewhat improved. Deceptive ads....OPENED A WEB PAGE!!! UNACCEPTABLE!!!! Will UNINSTALL if continus to happen!! *PRIVACY CONCERNS! **Doesn't zoom in to most recent w/ proper setting.**** Need better designation for new strikes. ZOOM TO setting not working.Would like to have ability to have multiple locations so could track current location, home, second home.
This app is too slow to update. I'm exhausted from looking at a spinning circle!
wont give me alerts even though they are on
radar stuffs up alot
Used to really like the app. Now to increase performance all radar info is just Pixellated.
extremely tedious ads.
games pop up when you hit buttons to show weather. they are very intrusive, take up the full screen and are difficult to remove from your screen. They are situated close to the buttons for radar etc and even though you don't push them, there they pop up. SO ANNOYING!!! I don't want to pay $4.99 for no ads. Just make the ads so they are not so close to weather buttons. Or are you doing it on purpose so people are so annoyed they pay the 5 bucks? If so, not okay!!
Seems very laggy compared to what I can see through various websites and misses lots of strikes that I see there too.
