About this app

Refreshed for 2023, StormWatch+ aspires to be your daily weather app of choice, no matter the weather! Access the most pertinent weather information - like current conditions, hourly and extended forecast, and local or national radar - quickly, then get on with your day!

Finally a weather forecast you can trust! Harnessing the local knowledge and dedication of more than 2,000 National Weather Service meteorologists nationwide, our goal is for StormWatch+ to replace the fickle computer-generated, single-icon forecast in most weather apps on as many devices as possible!

SW+ ALERTS IN-APP UPGRADE
For the ultimate severe weather preparation tool, check out our alerting technology, SW+ Alerts. SW+ Alerts is a life-saving service that sends you push notifications whenever hazardous weather threatens your specific location. Once again relying on the expertise of over 2,000 NWS meteorologists nationwide, SW+ Alerts compares multiple specific locations you select with weather watches and warnings issued by your local NWS office. Alerts are sent to the app ONLY if you are in the path of hazardous weather, eliminating the confusion associated with county-wide warning sirens or NOAA Weather Radio alerts. Simply tapping on a push alert will show your location with respect to the warning boundaries on a map, as well as display the full text of the alert. In addition, “wake-me-up” audio and voice alerts will sound for the most severe warnings.^

In addition to monitoring fixed locations, the “EnRoute” feature allows you to receive severe weather alerts while on the go! Simply enable EnRoute and the app will track your location and alert you if you drive into a warned area, whether you know your exact location or not!

Features of StormWatch+ Alerts include:

* Your choice of push notifications in the event of:
- Tornado Watches and Warnings
- Severe Thunderstorm Watches and Warnings
- Flash Flood Watches and Warnings
- A suite of Tropical weather alerts
- A suite of Winter weather alerts
* Notifications sent even if the app is not running and your device is not in use
* Push notifications accompanied by audio alerts that will wake you up (for Tornado and Severe Thunderstorm Warnings)^
* Alerts for up to 5 fixed locations, which can be changed at any time
* EnRoute, which uses your device's GPS location to actively monitor for severe weather as you travel
* Map showing warned area and your location
* Quiet time – to temporarily stop alerts during a specified time of day
* Status buttons to disable individual locations

StormWatch+ provides personalized weather alerts in the palm of your hand!

^ NOTE: Audio alerts cannot be heard if your device is manually silenced or in "Do Not Disturb" mode.

Worst app experience ever. After I paid for one month (that was the only option it gave instead of a longer one) it wanted me to register. Well it refused to accept my email address despite several attempts. Had this app for 45 minutes & nothing worked on it. Glad I wasn't able to purchase the 12 months. Did I mention that at the start, it kept popping up with instructions where you click "Next"... yet I had to click the next area multiple times before it would move on to the next one.

Susan sent an email to our support email address and we responded to that 90 minutes after receiving it with a detailed offer of assistance. She has not replied to the email and instead chose to leave this review just 30 minutes after sending the email. Glad to help via support@stormwatchplus.com.

Uninstalled because life saving information (the alerts) is placed behind a subscription service. A one-time payment I could possibly understand. Edit: the review still doesn't show up in the play store, only my email. Either way, the subscription model for this is pretty gross. Raise the one-time payment price to offset your costs, rather than a subscription.

While we originally offered alerts as a one-time payment, we quickly discovered that the significant ongoing costs required to provide the potentially life-saving alerting service required a similar commitment from users in the form of a subscription in order to offset these recurrent (monthly) costs. (Response not deleted. Nothing to hide.)

I downloaded the app specifically for severe weather alerts. This feature didn't work due to a glitch where I couldn't add my location. The developer was quick to respond to issue and provide a solution for the glitch. So please reach out to them if this happens to you. Everyone in bad storm areas should have an alert system designed to wake you for tornados etc. I am feeling much more prepared for the season now that I have this.

EG had an issue with full installation of the app & opened a ticket. Two hours later (in the middle of the night), we had the issue resolved & replied with instructions, as well as how to process a refund. The vast majority of our thousands of users have no issues. We prioritize customer service right behind a solid app, as evidenced here. /EP
