Ratings and reviews

Few quirks that caused me to uninstall. Yes , you can pick the alerts you want, BUT you can't stop them from displaying. Also, multiple alerts displayed on the app are a problem. For ex, I have a t storm warning, but would not know it because a flood warning is over it. Even when you click on it the flood shows but no t storm warning.. I send an email requesting deselected events not show on the map. Not holding my breath

Lacks customizability, never really replaced Simple Weather Alerts. About a month ago it failed to display a tornado warning, all the phones and the TV issued the alert. Today, a special weather statement for a strong storm came in some five minutes after another app (new feature) displayed it. It missed a second alert. Since NOAA Weather Free now includes customizable push alerts and they actually work, I hereby dub this app obsolete and unfortunately, unreliable when it counted the most.

I like it. multiple locations... Alerts on point...I set mine up (via the OS) to override do not disturb and set up a high volume alert tone.. then set the alert level to, basically, anything I wouldn't want to risk sleeping through. works like a champ! take THAT "developer of 19.99 weather app that doesn't work." I'll stick with this one!
