Hurricane Tracker App Reviews

Living on the Gulf Coast I use and trust this app’s information regularly!

Where is the audio for Florence Isaac and Helen? Two days in a row, and no audio available.

Accurate

These guys provide a top quality service.

Best tracker out there. Highly recommended.

Best app I have experienced for keeping up with hurricanes and potentially life threatening weather!

Super happy with the app, great, accurate and fast info.

Great App it is very accuracy

Does not respond to any buttons

I want to see storms on the east coast but it wont let me switch.

The best hurricane app out there.

This app is a very nice app is accurate as well I have been using it for a while now and have tracked many of hurricanes with it I live In Titusville Florida which is on the east coast in Central Florida so this app is a necessity for this part of the country so if you live in a hurricane prone area I would recommend this app to you very easy to use and highly accurate and tons of information you can get in the app so download it and give it a try it might just save your life when it comes Down to it at the right time

I give the Tracker 6 stars!

Please do not EVER discontinue this app. I live on the south east United States coast and this app has been a Godsend. Thank you!

In my early days as a sailboat captain I have experienced four named storms. With technology like this app, if I see any type of activity south of my latitude, I can prepare well in advance. Keep up the good work!

I live in New Orleans where this app is needed - keeps me from getting worried over nothing or know when to leave!

I live in hurricane prone Florida, and this app is great! All kinds of maps, analysis and reliable forecasts. Also notifications when my area is going to be affected by a storm. No crashes or other problems. And it's free! You are invited to donate if you wish, and I am so pleased with this app, I did! Highly recommend!

New to the app after my old one was discontinued. This one has a lot more info and very conveniently organized. Looking for a “history” section that allows researching hurricanes back to the 1800s. Looking forward to the season.

I work with emergency management assisting civilian authorities with emergency support. This tool is outstanding with alerts and updated pictures and diagrams and really helps track and predict storms and paths. Highly recommended!

I live in Louisiana and we definitely get our share of hurricanes. This app will give you all the needed information to keep you informed.

This app predicted that Harvey would hit Houston & not Corpus Christi hours before the news channels did. Gave us extra time to prepare that we wouldn’t have had otherwise. I tell everyone down here on the Texas Gulf Coast to get this app!

I live on Coast & I appreciate having something that tells me when to worry.

Not the fastest app and won't win any awards for its user interface or user experience. However, it provides access to a ton of information and has been very reliable. Highly recommend this app.

Love it... keeps me informed I used it last year

All the information you will ever need about tropical weather

App freezes on iPhone X more than it works. Wast of time.

This app has plenty of good data, it’s just a bit disorganized. Also, I’m on a iPhone 8 Plus and a fast wifi connection, the app is slow and needs to be optimized, etc. I still recommend it.

After having used this app for several months during peak hurricane season I have unfortunately found it to be very unreliable. Several times there have been active systems that are just not shown on the app. Don’t bother downloading. Waste of money.

This hurricane tracker app is very good. It includes several models and seems to be very accurate. I get updates on tropical systems quicker than my local TV app. I’ve had since the start of the hurricane season and I have no complaints with it.

Nice

It feels like an app built with a UIWebView, which slows it down but it works well. Push notifications make it really nifty and worth the purchase.

This app is very useful for me as I’m not a meteorologist, but likes to follow the tropics with an easy, accurate and friendly tool. I recommend it.

I downloaded this app to watch Florence because I had friends on the east coast. Today I got charged $3.99 for the app. No notice and it didn’t show up on my Apple ID subscriptions. I would have canceled it prior to them charging me if I had known. I have asked for them to cancel my subscription and refund my money.... let’s see if they do!

Get it!

We live on the east coast of Florida. I love that this app has all the models and I can keep track of every potential storm during hurricane season. I also follow them on FB and set their site to priority so they’re the first ones I see. Great job!

Keeps me informed. That’s what I need.

Great system - we are in a hurricane target zone, and this "early warning" is great. As previously said, the system is a great “early warning” system and it is with very current updates. Preparation time and effectiveness is alway supported.

I have been doing weather for over 30 yrs --- this is a great App.

I love this app and the sound notifications!!!

I have had Storm Tracker for 4 hurricane seasons. I has been accurate to the Ts. It has allowed me to know when and where a storm is located an when it will make land fall. I trust Storm Tracker with my family.

Best one I’ve found by far. Go to app.

This app often operates during a pending storm as other sources get bogged down.

It has anything for Hurricane info that I need to know😀

The app works well, provides the necessary information, and get the job done. But the UI is horrible. Hard to believe nobody has developed an app capable of displaying the same information in a way that doesn’t look like a 2002 MySpace or geocities app. 4 stars because the app works well and provides good info. -1 for the horrible ui.

Me mantiene informado , y es muy exacto!. Le entiendo muy bien.

I paid for this app and it proved worthless and no better information than going to the government free sites. Was hoping for more information at the local and impact level.

Great app especially living in NC!

Great information quality. Just find this app has trouble downloading. Very slow unless I have perfect windows and I often run out of patience and turn to other options.

I got this app hoping it would should show me the information that I was getting on Fox News or such. Just simple facts I could refer to- the system, category, wind speed, movement and projected track. It is all here in the app but you have to search for it and keep searching Good app I am sure- just not what I need.

Does not show history of the season or past seasons. Can’t even see the list of the storm names for the season. If it’s there I can’t find it. Needs improvement.

This app brings everything a weather nut wants when looking at tropical weather. Radar, satellite, model data, and of course NHC data. Works great and is my go to for tropical weather.

This is a Great App. I like keeping on top of the latest weather.

This app is great. This app allows me to view models without visiting a website. It updates very fast and is easy to use. If you have a hurricane problem, I recommend this app.

This app comes in very handy

Thank you for providing the latest weather info and all your hard word. Blessings

Great app really gives you an in depth look at hurricanes

App is ok at the best. Very slow and looks outdated. Wish I would’ve spent my money on a different app

The app has a lot of good data however I think it could use some improvements. Here are some suggestions from a life long Florida resident. Add the category of the storm to the hurricane icon. For example: where you list the storms, show the number. This is my biggest issue with the app. Especially as storms approach land, they can upgrade or downgrade at a moments notice. I want to be able to check in the wee hours of the night and right away see what category the storm is. It’s really hard to find that info in this app. You have to either read a big document and try and weed through all the meteorology jargon to find it. Add a tracking graph that the user can move a stark back in time or forward in time based on the most projected path. Kittycode’s hurricane tracker app had this and I loved it. It even changed the category label as the storm was expected to downgrade as it moved over land. Download kittycode hurricane tracker and look at some historical storms. You’ll be able to see how this feature works. Unfortunately the kittycode app retired after last season and I found this app instead. Overall, it’s still a very good app and has a ton of info. The spaghetti models section is actually better than the other app, but some user experience misses make it less than 5 stars for me.

Hard to navigate, delayed updates compared to competing apps. However, it’s nice have access to the different models/maps.

Audio is 24 hours behind I can’t find the lasted actual information it’s just radars

5 min. Going over the charts and graphs here is equivalent to 90 min on the weather channel and you don’t get all the hype. I love it.

Really, too much for the casual tracker. I would give it three stars, but it wouldn’t be fair. Just check it out first. It may be more than you need.

As a Port Canaveral FL Harbor Pilot I utilize this app frequently as do most all other Florida State Harbor Pilots to get the most accurate and updated information on Atlantic Hurricanes it has proven to be a most useful tool for our profession

Checked at 3:30 am. Last update was 2am. Useless...

Need more info on what category the hurricane/typhoon is, as well as message traffic on landfall times.

Great App

I live on the Gulf coast of east Texas. I have used this app for many years. It has always been the most reliable predictions I can find and gets better each year. The news media give snap shots the app gives the whole picture.

I’m here in Wilmington, NC with Florence and needing info. Hurricane tracker is great giving me more than just a radar look at the storm. The models were great for planning prior to arrival, but now that outer bands are just on the edge of coming in, that’s when I need the infrared loop, where the bands are, etc. Great so far, able to plan how much time I got to take any last minute issues.

Great app

This app allows you to see what's forming and the probability of becoming a hurricane. Also gives computer models showing strike probabilities. Love this app!

Hurricanes pose a threat in 3 ways: wind, flooding and surge. This app covers wind and rain predictions but you have to look elsewhere for surge information. Provide that and I’ll change my rating to 5 stars.

This is awful! Any weather app for free will give you better information then paying $4 for this. How can I get my money back?

What are you waiting for?

The best app ever for tracking and getting latest info on invests, tropical storms, hurricanes, etc.—family in Florida and friends who have families on the Eastern Seaboard. Studying the models, graphics, and wind probabilities gives me valuable insight to all things related to possible formation. Thank you for this wonderful, informative app.

I love this app.

This is my only go to for hurricane news, no sensationalism, just the facts. Love it.

Save your money! The same info is available, with similar access at no cost.

Short on detail

Great tool for tracking hurricane activity. Timely, quality information.

Love this app to track storms! Would absolutely recommend it.

Provides good access to NWS data.

As a self proclaimed weather geek, this is the best and most comprehensive hurricane app out there!

Excellent app for tracking hurricane activities

I’ve used several hurricane tracking apps. This is the best and most current and accurate data.

This ap is unpredictable! Sometimes it works and most of the time... it doesn’t.

Thank you.

Well I just can say is perfect

Very good thus far. Seems accurate

What else needs said... Keep up the excellent work.

Nat’l Hurricane Center has more/better content. NOTHING special about this app, little added value

App freezes on iPhone X more than it works. Wast of time.

Well designed and lots info

It's our go to app to keep us informed on the latest storms.

Looking down the barrel of a cat 4 hurricane ATM, and while this app has A LOT of info, it has consistently failed to update once the monitoring changed hands. It's easier to navigate than the NHC and that's really only its 4.99 selling point for me. I've had to gather all the info on this storm from local sources since it changed hands on Sunday. Very disappointed tbh. A wealth of info, unfortunately it at least 24 hours outdated. Not very helpful, given the situation.

Hurricane Tracker is my go to App for hurricane and tropical weather information hands down. I’ve used it since May of 2017. Before that I used several apps frequently to keep up with tropical events because no single app provided all the information I needed. No More! Hurricane Tracker provides all of my needs at my fingertips. Hooray for Hurricane Tracker! Kudos to the developers of this terrific weather advisory app! Keep up the good work people!

The app is not intuitive, not easy to navigate and not user friendly. Unfortunately Hurricane Pro is no longer available. It was the best.

Living in Puerto Rico I depend on this application, last year during Maria, I was able to track the storm all the way until the power went out here, I was able to prepare better because I had more information, this application is a must have!

I live on the South Carolina coast and rely on this application for up to date news on potential storms headed my way. Some applications are nice to have. However, this application is a must. Thank you to the design staff for a job well done.....!!!

Has pretty much everything you need all in one place. I gave it 4 stars due to some screen layout issues but this in no way has anything to do with how the app works. Sure, it is a little slow caused by,I suspect, the gathering of relevant data that I could get from variousr websites but this puts it all in your hands. I would recommend it to family and friends for their edification. As to speed, we are watching a storm that is crawling across in a vast ocean. When the storm gets to to within 36 hours of land fall I switch to my state' own storm watch system which covers where I live in greater detail. I still love this app.

Awesome is not the right word or term. More like rip-off. Said it included Hawaii. BS ! No projected path, or current status. It took my money right a way though. People in the pacific region, stay away from this one.

I have been using this app for years to watch the progression of Atlantic storms and learn how and where they might affect me , especially when planning to travel beyond my state. Last year’s Maria coverage was especially important as a Bermuda trip was affected, but only slightly, luckily. I check it every summer.

It feels clunky and awkward like an Android app. If you are coming from the old hurricane pro app that recently shut down then steer clear from this one. Not even close to what I was expecting.

Great one stop shop for lots of info

Used to be good. Now it dose not give Any notices.

I’m so angry I spent $3.99 on this app. It does not focus on the Western Pacific and is not nearly as efficient as “My Hurricane Tracker & Alerts.” Save yourself the money and go get that other app.

This is a wonderful app. It has everything you need to keep you informed and easy to understand.

I’ve been looking for a replacement for the great Hurricane Pro app that was discontinued, I have tried several free and paid apps. This one so far is one of the worst and is not even Free. It is not intuitive, it’s poorly designed interface makes difficult to understand the information. Please bring back Hurricane Pro

Live in SW Florida. This has been my go to app for years specially on my iPad. Finally got a 6s plus so now I can check status on the road. The cost of this app is a steal.

Thank you very much for your application. This application has helped me a lot in information and prevention.

I have been using this app since day one. Best one ever.

Hurricane Tracker is simply the best that this Florida native ever used.

Love it!!!!!! Keeps us informed and helps early warning to protect our business and families.

I’ve used this app for years. I purchased this app for updates. I get an update but when I open the app it’s just a white screen and does nothing. The new update didn’t do anything except make it not work? Upset after purchasing the app years ago

Very thorough and reliable. Use it all the time.

One of the best and most timely ways to instantly gather the relevant information you need regarding tropical storms and hurricanes.

For those who are drawn to weather, severe or not, this App is without question the very best. The information is so thorough that one can imagine what is really happening; it examines the subject from every conceivable level. The graphics are amazing. The information is accurate; I don’t leave home without it. kcf

When a hurricane is heading my way, ignorance is not bliss. Every time I wake, and I do that often, I check its position. With this app, I know more than ever before, where IT is, and where it may be headed.

Just finished reviewing data on two Atlantic storms and learned a whole lot more than I would have on weather channel or TV news three days from now Sailing plans (local) now have us inviting guests

I purchased this app a few years ago and I thought it would give you quick update. At the beginning when I first purchased this it has been slow. I do see they have gotten better with your updates by getting a lot faster. I still would like to see so spaghetti models and for them to get a little bit quicker with her updates. I live in Massachusetts and I also like the storm track. I know we had one many years ago and we are also overdue for a major hurricane. I also like to take pictures of the storms and that’s why I purchased this. I still recommend this app can anyone. I will give it a five star when they give a lot more quicker update or give an exclamation why they don’t.

No spaghetti models or expected track on storms

Just wish the push alert sounds had a buzzer or siren type noise. Seems like a hurricane warning or watch should have a more serious alert than the childish wind sound they use today for wind blowing. A hurricane alerts should have a EAS sound or something serious not a wind noise. Also why only 3 push alert regions. Living in the mid Atlantic region I would want 4 push alerts to cover the entire east coast.

I love this app! It is the most comprehensive Tropical Disturbance related tracking app I’ve found. Weather systems are easy to find. The data is reliable and easily indexed. Thank you!

Muy buena aplicación. Te mantiene informado de los cambios meteorológicos en la región.

Have had a paid subscription for several years now and also follow on twitter, love the great information for my area, central Louisiana, much needed this time of year... Thank you very much

The best app ever

Great program. Began using last year during the Mother of all hurricane seasons. It was accurate and informative. I used often, and depended on its input. I had family in two hurricane target areas. Invaluable. Highly Recommend this program.

Great satellites, in detail models and model runs, and great air flow pattern maps, not a better app out there for tropical weather

I’m sure for a professional this is amazing and I do use it but it’s not incredibly self explanatory nor as user friendly as I’ve come to expect from my apps.

I’ve used this app for years. I purchased this app for updates. I get an update but when I open the app it’s just a white screen and does nothing. The new update didn’t do anything except make it not work?

Maps update slow. Often 24 hours behind.

Although the information presented is available for free on government websites, this app does a superior job in aggregating relevant hurricane info and graphics. You are paying for their expertise in finding the data on dozens of sometimes obscure government websites, displaying it, and it is well worth it! As a Floridian and a retired safety professional, I discovered several graphics that I wasn't familiar with. So, the educational value was well worth the price A nice touch is the audio reports and push advisories.

My go to app for hurricane season!

This is the only app I found that came near to hurricane tracker pro, which I had to replace because after Many years the govt and noaa have forced them out of providing easy to understand information we could use and make our decisions as what action to take with approaching storms. I guess the government feels they must give me the information first hand. We stayed alive using hurricane tracker pro living in the path of the eye of Katrina & Rita and did so making our decisions using only hurricane tracker pro and no other information. Hope I can say the same for this app after a direct hit from a cat 5.

If you have experience tracking storms, this app is actually pretty poor. Graphs are slow to update and are basically just downloads from the national hurricane center and readily available satellite imagery and storm tracks. Even found outdated information on storms still posted (Beryl still showing as tropical storm in wrong location when it has turned into a low). I guess it can work for some basic needs but was hoping it would offer some added value. Are there even forecasters associated with the app? Missing the hurricane pro app - it was significantly better.

Just wish the push alert sounds had a buzzer or siren type noise. Seems like a hurricane warning or watch should have a more serious alert than the childish wind sound they use today for wind blowing. A hurricane alerts should have a EAS sound or something serious not a wind noise. Also why only 3 push alert regions. Living in the mid Atlantic region I would want 4 push alerts to cover the entire east coast.

Excelente aplicación

Print is very small, hard to read.

The app is not intuitive, not easy to navigate and not user friendly. Unfortunately Hurricane Pro is no longer available. It wad the best.

Takes a while to learn the navigation on the site !!

Like most weather forecast they overestimate what it could be and put people into a frenzy of the unknown. They might as well say it’s a 50-50 shot of rain.

Good way to get complete information on severe weather events. It works very well. Strongly recommend it.

Keeps you up-to-Date on what’s going on, weather-wise. All the formal stuff from NHC, but also their ideas & observations ... Five Stars

Very reliable and always accurate

Lots of information, well organized.

Very confusing to navigate.

This now the best app for Ipad and Iphone I have seen since my last HUrricane app cease being around last Dec.

The app won’t load on my phone. The app is installed but won’t load and information.

Save your money

Love this app. Accurate and easy to use. All the information you need in the event of an hurricane.

This is my go to app for all things storm related. I live in Pensacola, fla and it’s so important to have good weather info. This app shows more info then any of the other hurricanes tracker apps I have.

Tons of information and images thank you for all of your hard work.

It's not worth 5$! "The whether" app is much better and FREE !

La aplicación me gusta mucho pero desde el huracán Maria la aplicación en el area del Caribe no funciona. Me gustaría saber cuando lo van a poner a trabajar.

I like this app due to the amount of information it gives. It is nice having it set up the way it is. Notifications are updated on a regular basis. Good app to have if you live on any coast that can be in the path of a hurricane. Update 02/19/18, due to Hurricane Pro, and Hurricane HD no longer supported. Hurricane Tracker is now the best app of all the hurricane tracking apps. Great App, thanks.

If there is bad weather out there of a substantial magnitude this is the app to zero in and know everything including the storm’s show size! Be safe. Highly recommend this app.

Absolutely the best! We've had this app since the beginning; great they keep adding more and more features and maps. Presentation is beautiful and colorful and easy to use. I’ve represented meteorologists and this data is world class. Congratulations to the team, it’s an excellent app.

The tracker got so “improved “ and fancy that it got to be to difficult to navigate. NHC site is now back to the go to site.

I rely on this site for non-hype accuracy.

All I really want is a map showing projected tracks. That may be here but if it is, it is hard to find. Poor interface, not showing the information that I want. I will be deleting it

The only thing that is keeping me from giving this app 5 stars is because there isn’t a feature to manually step through the updates of a storm like the hurricane pro app that was discontinued. It’d be nice if they adopted this in future updates.

This app is great. Very easy to use and accurate.

I LOVE this app!!

Cat 5 hurricane Willa isn’t even on the app. Waste of money.

Interface is a cluttered mess – unattractive jumble of screens and animations that make it impossible to find info quickly. Tonight noted a Cat 4 Pacific cyclone was totally missing. After looking everywhere it advises ‘no active storms’. WRONG. Deleted the app moments later.

Very helpful

Hurricane Willa is a category 5 storm in the Eastern Pacific and the app says there are NO storms in this region! Is everyone on vacation on the app support crew? Glad there are other sources of up to date information. Don’t waste your money on this loser!

Very disappointed. The KittyCode tracker I had allowed me to scroll through the storms path and see the time and conditions of each location. I tried to see the Cat5 storm in the pacific just now that my Weather Channel app alerted about. Because I have already selected 3 locations for notifications in the Atlantic, I can’t even see the pacific coast storms unless I change the settings. This app is not worth the money

Category 4 hurricane heading towards western Mexico and nothing listed as active. Completely unreliable. Do not trust this application for anything. What a shame as a little more effort and it could be a great app!

Very informative very practical I like it

You get the same updates on fb for free & half of the time notifications don’t show up

Great satellites, in detail models and model runs, and great air flow pattern maps, not a better app out there for tropical weather. And not just tropics. I also use app for NE US region in winter. Models and satellites keep me ahead of developing Nor’easter’s that we often get pummeled with here on Long Island. Awesome app!!!

I was in Florida as Irma approached. This app helped keep me informed as the track shifted, allowing me to predict changes in wind direction and intensity with great accuracy. It was a source of comfort after my area lost power to know what Irma was up to.

This is the best Hurricane App I have used. There have been several others that I loaded and none of them were as thorough and informative as this one. If you want immediate Hurricane information, this is the one you want!

I like the app. In general it works as I expect it should. I appreciate the ability to see weather activity on the east and west coasts of America, what I do not like is the Americo-centricness of this app. For example there is a hurricane that is headed towards Ireland in the Atlantic but is not counted among them as it won’t hit America. That is sad, even Americans have connections and concerns outside the boarders of the USA.

THE BEST HURRICANE APP!!

But, Pacific map is not loading in isn’t current

Great app which compiles many free resources into one convenient place. However, app works like web browser so is slow and, at times, clunky.

I like the app format, but information is not updated soon enough. Watching hurricane Michael approach I was forced to go to NOAA for current information.

Been using this app for years glad I got it when it was free not worth 3.99 to me

Great app I have used the past two years

when you really need it, it doesn’t work. You’re better off going to the national hurricane center web site.

Does what it says it should... don’t have to look or fool with another app it lost all possible storms

This app keeps me up to date! It’s amazing

I have been using this app from the day it was released! I live in So Fla, there is nothing out there that can come close!!! Great job guys/girls!

I purchased this app for the sharing option, but it’s absolutely useless. I want to share information with work colleagues via email, but all the feature does is take a screenshot, what use is that! Wasted $3.99, I’ll just use a free app and take a screenshot for what it’s worth. I work on the premise “You pay for quality” sadly it’s let me down this time!

Facebook ad popped up on models tab. This is a paid app. Don't expect to see ads. :-(
