Americas: USA (including Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam), Canada, Bermuda, Mexico, El Salvador, Argentina, Brazil
Europe: UK, Ireland, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland, Spain (including the Balearic and the Canary Islands), France, Hungary, Germany, Austria, Netherlands, Poland, Slovenia, Croatia, Belarus, Ukraine

To many random alarms going off for rain that just passes by or in the area when it isn't even raining sometimes . I want the alarm for my exact location . Also like some have said the numbers are confusing an mean nothing . "Heavy or light rain" approaching etc would be more accurate and appropriate . Rather then scores or percentages. Widget needs a refresh button.

Regarding the alarms, for which city in which country is this happening exactly? There might be false positives detected by the weather service's radar and we should be able to filter this. Please see the help menu, notification for an introduction to the values. Thanks for your suggestions!

Love this app for both my phone and smartwatch! I wish there was a way to silence the "thunder" from the phone when it's raining outside, without disabling the notification on either the watch or phone.

The apps are independent and so is the sound setting from completely disabling the notification. To silence on the phone: settings menu, alarms, alarm "Close", actions, sound, off. This has no implications for the Wear OS watch. More info by email: micha@rain-alarm.com

App is excellent, extremely helpful when planning clothing for dog walks, however it would be really useful to have larger widgets or the ability to resize the current widgets.
