It's important to my job to be aware of upcoming precipitation. this app used to be good for this. however, I have the "time sensitive" notification channel configured to alert with sound so I can get the alerts, and recently RainViewer has started sending spammy messages through this same channel. I will be finding a new app.

Hello, thank you for your feedback and sorry for the inconvenience caused by the repeated notifications. We usually send promotional push messages very rarely — it was only more frequent this time because of Black Friday. If you’d like to share more details or comments, please feel free to email us anytime at support@rainviewer.com

My only gripe with this app is you can't select apple weather as its data source, especially as their current server connections frequently drop off.

The app is just perfect right now, but maybe some tweaking is needed in the settings, in my experience setting the radar for full range or drizzle works a lot better
