Ratings and reviews

Very handy app to receive weather and related alerts. However, since the recent switch to color coded alerts in Canada it would be really nice to: a) Support those alert levels in the App UX and notification settings. b) Add ability to filter out notifications for updates, especially for yellow alerts. The constant updates on Snow Squall are almost enough to create alert fatigue and have me turn them off entirely, which is not something I want to do.

I do like the app - weather updates are quick, accurate and timely. What I would like to see as an update would be an option to make the alerts continue to sound until the user acknowledges the alert. I live out in the country in a region that has a fair amount of bad weather. Especially at night when sleeping, I would like the audible to sound until I acknowledge it...kind of like an alarm clock. This could be an option that you could choose to use or not. In my case...being alerted to serious weather is quite important! Perhaps even having different "levels" of alerts....Watches....Warnings...etc. Other than that...it's a good app that anyone that needs to monitor the weather should have.

The Alert app is Very useful ! I have had 2 alerts within a few hrs apart . An Accident & a Weather report of 10 to 15 cm of snow !
