About this app

Severe weather alerts for your exact location. Storm Shield gives you storm-based alerts for tornado, hurricane, flood, thunderstorm, winter storms and other life-threatening weather events via voice and push notification.

Storm-based alerts help reduce false alarms by alerting you to severe weather based on your exact location within a county. County-based alerts can result in false alarms, warning you when your location in the county is not within the threatened area.

These features come with your app download:

Benefits:
• Get voice alerts just like a NOAA weather radio via push notification anywhere in the United States.
• Hi-Def radar map is your home screen so you can quickly see what's going on at your locations.
• View current conditions, hourly and daily forecasts.
• Save additional locations to ensure family members stay safe.

View NOAA severe weather alerts on the map to see where dangerous weather is happening:
• Tap alerts to view info
• Show multiple severe weather layers on the map at the same time
• Flood watches & warnings
• Tornadoes & Thunderstorms
• Hurricane & Tropical Storm forecast tracks
• Winter storms
• Marine & Coastal alerts
• Radar & Clouds
• Wind Speed
• Snow Fall
• Road Weather

• Buy Lightning ($0.99 per month) to unlock these 2 features:

I'd give this a zero if I could. Yes, it's a good app but I've had it for several years and all of the sudden it goes up from $1.49/mo to $5.99/mo.....a $4.50/mo increase with no warning and no option to pay yearly at a discount. So much for having loyalty to their customers. Definitely not worth $72 a year!! I understand prices have gone up but not 300%!!!!

Got a new phone, now I can't access my app. Can't get past the initial location screen. I'm getting the alerts, but can't click on them to read them as it brings me right back to the page asking for my location, which isn't working. Seems like many people are experiencing the same issue. It's a good app, when it works, but I am considering cancelling my subscription and finding a better app that works if this can't be resolved soon.

Uodate. Did not see the premium button this time. We'll see. I cannot get past the $1.99 'free' trial bundle. I tried on the first device thinking it was telling me what I could get and I would have an option to actually decline when I set up my profile but didn't ever see one. I will not use the app and am uninstalling. I better not see a charge on my bill. Sorry Leland, you are a good salesman but it is a con job they have you doing.

When you tap a premium feature in the app (i.e. 'Future') a screen appears describing feature details. On that screen is a blue purchase button. Tapping it initiates the Google Play purchase process, which gives you a final opportunity to not complete the purchase. If this isn't happening for you, plz send a support ticket so we can look into it.
