StormWatch+ for Negative User Reviews
✓ Do not waste your time with appThat is how i see it.Version: 1.0.7
✓ No radar and the tracking isn’t workingThis app isn’t showing anything with the radar no matter what I turn on or off. So disappointing.Version: 5.0.1
✓ BeckyIt crashes before it gets the map downloaded. I'm not going to risk purchasing it..Version: 1.0
✓ Free!? Not really!As the wife of a very successful app developer, listing your product as free, then providing zero service unless you chose to pay $6.99 is misleading and dishonest. While I appreciate the fine print on this issue, and asking for no negative reviews, please consider changing your bait and switch business approach. Make it free or mark it as paid. Not worth the download..Version: 1.0.1
✓ No Radar DataJust downloaded the app after hearing about how great the alerts are. I like all those options, but the radar is totally blank every time I look at it. What a bummer..Version: 5.0.1
✓ DeleteFree app, but it actually charges you $6.99 to get emergency push notifications! I'm deleting it, because I don't want to pay extra for it to do what I thought it was going to do in the first place..Version: 1.0.5
✓ BrokenCan’t create password to set up account. Blank password keyboard.Version: 4.2.4
✓ Fair appNot impressed! Radar when it does finally come up is the worst I've seen. $8.99 was not spent well by me. My bad!.Version: 1.2.1
✓ AbsurbApp crashes unless you pay for it. Not really free.Version: 1.0.1
✓ Stopped loading my local infoA few days ago it quit loading info for my location/address. Icon just spins. My settings are on and the same as previously when it worked..Version: 4.0.3
✓ LiarsThis app costs money!.Version: 1.0.2
✓ Waste of moneyConstantly freezes and crashes. The only part of the app I can actually use is the radar..Version: 3.2.2
✓ CrashesI heard great reviews about this app after the tornadoes ripped through Tennessee. So I downloaded it hoping it would be better than the weather channel app. And it looks great, but every time I try to go to the radar it crashes..Version: 4.0.1
✓ No longer crashesApp has worked since ios8.Version: 3.1.1
✓ No radar or any informationHorrible weather app that doesn’t actually give you the weather. I subscribed to the alerts, but any settings never get saved so it gives me very little confidence this this will actually alert me when a tornado is about to hit my location..Version: 5.0.1
✓ Ain't nothing in this life for free!My dog it terrified of lightning. I was looking for an app to alert me to approaching storms, but you have to pay $8.99 to use that feature! Thanks for nothing, delete!.Version: 3.0.3
✓ Costs $8.99 for severe alert functionality(Response to developer's response: You probably should make it clearer what the free version of the app offers, as this was recommended elsewhere online by someone who lauded the alert functionality for severe weather events. I was ready to probably pay the 8.99 for this functionality, but again, I think this generally should be charged at the outset if its the core functionality an app is providing. That said, if the other features you mentioned are adding value as well (I wasn't aware of them), they should again be pointed out so people are clear on the difference between the free and premium product. Raised review to 3 stars for now - still won't be subscribing as I think the charge should be provided up front (you could also consider offering a separate "premium" app if you really want to make the initial download free but want to have a pay product as well). I'll consider editing/deleting the review later if I have a chance to check out free version - This is essentially just a weather radar app with some basic severe weather safety tips unless you invest the $8.99 in buying the full version, as far as I could tell. The $8.99 is very reasonable for the service (apparently) provided, but it's poor form offering this free version with such limited functionality imo. Just charge $8.99 at the outset and I probably would have paid it & hopefully rated 5 stars..Version: 3.1.1
✓ Used to have alert detailsTornado season in Tennessee. I get tornado watches and warning push notifications. When I “tap to see details” it takes me to the app; however, the alerts are missing. No details at all. I have no idea if the warning is for my work (an hour away), on my way to work, or my home. Why is Apple billing me monthly for “severe-weather-somewhere-but-don’t-know-where-cuz-the-most-important-feature-has-a-known-bug-yet-hasn’t-had-a-solution-for-months.” Fix it or I’m deleting this app.Version: 5.0.3
✓ Great alerts. Terrible at everything else.Precipitation layer never loads for me. Pretty much useless if you need radar or forecast. But the alerts are loud and will wake you up so it’s great during severe weather season..Version: 4.2.4
✓ NOTFREE!It's not FREE... $6.99 to purchase after downloading an information only app!! I have not tried the paid app..Version: 1.0
✓ Constant bugsSometimes the app will glitch out an kick me out for no good reason. persisting problem right now with serve weather areas not showing color. not showing the risk zones like “slght mrgnl etc.” tried contact by email but they didn’t care enough to respond..Version: 4.2.4
✓ No radar like others report dont useWas recommended by others and the radar never worked after multiple installs.Version: 5.0.1
✓ Crashes!Never got a chance to try it. App crashed after a minute or two every time I opened it. On iPhone 6+..Version: 2.2
✓ Make a choiceMake this completely free or market it as a paid app. This is deception at its finest..Version: 1.0.1
✓ Help neededFirst you can’t change the map, all hybrid. Second on a iPhone trying to read the options of layers is awful it is all bunched up, terrible. You brag about alerts but to pay for them, plenty of other free apps that that is not a cost. Sorry but deleting. Update: Wow takes 2 weeks to get a response. I am using an iPhone 8 that all updates are current. The part that is very hard to read is where you click for the radar or it shows a somewhat of a description of what the day maybe through the day. So that is the issue but again with no “future radar” and no standard maps or even light or dark menu I will again delete the app..Version: 4.1.3
✓ No radar showing upUsed to be the absolute best app but for over a month now no radar shows up. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled. Changed the overlays. Tried adjusting everything I can think of. But still no radar images..Version: 4.2.4
✓ Severe Weather Alert doesn't workThe Weather Channel and Dark Skies will show alerts. Storm Watch+ does not.Version: 1.0.2
✓ App will not openI have tried to open this app multiple times, deleted and downloaded again and again, still no functionality. It is tough to pay for something that doesn’t work “.Version: 5.0.7
✓ UnimpressedFor having to purchase the alerts/premium version for $8 a year, I expected this app to be flawless. Not so Nothing ever loads. EVER. Any way to get my money back?!.Version: 4.2.0
✓ Doesn’t offer as much as my free weather appI paid $8.99 for this app because it was recommended by a local weather expert and I wanted notifications for my exact location as a backup to my NOAA radio. It never occurred to me that this app would not do the same things as my free Weather Underground app. For example, every time I open the app I have to choose my layers, while my WU app saves them until I change them. Also, when I see an area with a storm watch or warning, I can’t tap it to get the information, while my free WU app gives me the complete NWS watch / warning info just by tapping the shades polygon anywhere on the map. My free WU app will give me a complete extended forecast and an hourly forecast for anywhere, but this app only gives me a few highlights for one day. I can’t find anything that lets me look at a daily forecast for any location. Also this app takes more than two or three minutes to load every time I open it. My free WU app pops up immediately every time. And, regarding the push notifications for my area, it constantly notifies me that the watch is continuing ... I really don’t need reminding, trust me, when it comes to severe weather I am on alert all the time. It’s ironic that this app advertises no unnecessary notifications when every few minutes it beeps to say “your watch is still in effect.” And if that isn’t enough, in this morning’s storms this app’s radar was waaaayyy behind my free WU app’s radar. I am not happy and would like a refund. $8.99 a year is not worth it..Version: 4.1.6
✓ In theory, great...but unreliableWhen this works, it is awesome! The alerts are good. That said, more often than not the weather info won’t load. I paid too much for this to be unreliable, especially since it is supposed to keep me safe..Version: 4.1.3
