UPDATE: I thought they removed the free version, but I just updated the app before removing it, and it's back. It's less user-friendly, the graphs/calendar are behind a paywall now, you only get 2 locations and one is your location which you can't rename, some functions taken away for the free version. I'm not a farmer and don't need more than 2 locations to track. Otherwise, it's an interesting app for figuring out backyard watering needs and to stay up on average rainfall.

Used to be great free app with additional options to upgrade if you wanted to. Now they only care about forcing you into a paid subscription and disclosing data, including location, that's unnecessary. You used to be able to enter your ZIP code and track the rain, but no more. With the latest update it continually asks for your location and will not allow you to view anything without it.

I had the free version. It allowed for 2 locations & gave the simple information I wanted which was total rainfall. The app gave 12 hour, 24, 72, week, month, year totals. I had home & my business locations & only used it to casually keep up with current and accumulated rainfall. It was great for my simple needs. Now the update came and they push for subscription. Only 1 free location available, more complicated, pushing for more access to my phone & location, etc. Simple was better.
