Noaa Radar Us App Reviews

Great Radar & Satelite app. Loads quick, has a good 1.5 hour time loop and is clear, easy to zoom, and doesn’t draw a lot of data. Only missing piece to make this a perfect radar app is a combination radar & satellite view which this app doesn’t have.

Really like this app. Crisp display, timely, and focused on just what is needed. Would be nice to be able to select time lapse duration (30 min, 1 hr, etc) in settings. Like that you can step image by image through a loop, something that is still absent from a popular expensive paid radar app.

I love this app.

The radar is nice. It doesn’t have any hourly predicted forecasts.

I live in north Florida and rely on this app for kayaking - it has always been accurate for me

Excellent program. Works smoothly on my iPad 1. More coverage of Latin America would be nice. (That was years ago.) I've used it on my iPad Air for years now. I also have other weather apps but this is still the best.

This is my go to app for severe weather on my iPad. I believe I check this almost twice or thrice day, especially when I am setting out. A very simple app that works reasonably fast.

I love this app! Very accurate and helpful.

Most all free weather apps are bloated with huge file sizes and are slow to load updated radar. They have too many complicated layers and try to do everything. This little app is only 7 megs whereas other weather apps are between 75 and 150 megs. So it’s fast and does it’s job very well in the radar department. A huge plus for this app is that the map shows practically the entire screen which is a great thing for those who use the smaller iPhones. No more clutter intruding on the precious screen real estate. Today I got to test it extensively in southeast Alabama with numerous pop up thunderstorms and it ALWAYS updated in 5 minutes or less. I use another app for basic weather forecasting etc. that is more detailed in that regard and it’s a free app called BeWeather, together with this simple but great radar app makes for a great combo. Highly recommend.

Works for me as advertised.

Ap locked up on me for a day . Working ok for the moment

I live in Florida, and I rely on RadarUS every day, especially in the rainy season. It’s accuracy allows me to plan my day and avoid getting trapped in dangerous storms. It’s my favorite app.

App provides me and my family timely insights into the size and strength of a storm and shows us our relative location in the storm.

I use this app a lot. But, I can't install it on my iOS 11 devices. Any plans to update it?

Great application for tracking showers and thunderstorms and precipitation on radar.

What a time waster

Use this app often, especially during severe weather season. Good display, frequent updates.

Update your app to be iPhone X compatible please

This app is very accurate. I love all the info they give for the location your in. It has help me make decisions whether to travel or not.

We live out on the prairie, being able to track storms is a life saver. Love this app!

I studied to be a pilot and learned to read weather maps which are critical for flying small airplanes. Weather is a show-stopper for small planes. This app from NOAA is very accurate and informative; particularly when tracking weather movements over the previous hour. I no longer fly, but I can precisely predict how much time I have to get home before the downpour hits. Ha. This doesn’t have forecast or other info, but it’s great for anticipating incoming imminent weather.

This is a straightforward, effective, and reliable app which also takes up very little space on your device. I really like it!

Great app

I have a feeling the reviews for this app are fake. I paid the 3.99 to upgrade and I still have ads. I don’t notice any improvement from the upgrades so I shut down the app and opened it again as instructed... no change and still with the ads! Seems like a scam to me.

The detailed map is so good that it is my first choice for finding local information.

This app is the first one I check every morning! Great work!

This app knows where the storms are and it is a very helpful app when preparing for going to work!

Love this App and can’t live without it!! Always spot on with the weather and radar is a must have!

Excellent app. But if I open mine in landscape mode and turn my iPhone to portrait mode the app displays incorrectly. This has apparently been caused by the new iOS.

I would love to give this app a 5, but the last 3 phone updates disabled the radar portion and I had to delete the app and reinstall it to get it to work.

Best on the market for the price.

Love the forecast feature

I use this radar app nearly daily to track inbound rain and/or storms. It’s important to see where my location is related to the storm system coverage. It’s always good when you find yourself on the edge of some heavy weather. Tried other apps but I always rely on this one for my visual reports.

Edit and downgrade: Am downgrading to four star from five star. The reason because in the latest update I no longer have the option for full screen of the radar. I am now unable to temporarily remove the bottom toolbar which in Treut at two special screen real estate when I want to look at the radar map. Why in the world with a developer remove that feature which is one of the main reasons why I paid for the subscription and gave it a five star originally.

With a tap of my finger I am able to see the weather in my locality and further through the United States. Color coding of weather conditions makes conditions easy to read. Have used this app for years and it has not disappointed! Highly recommend!

It always works. Always. Accurate and intuitive. Simple to use and understand for anyone. Yet you can lift the hood and make choices (show cloud cover, base reflectivity, cloud tops, etc.) for those who know what they want.

I routinely use this to see when to expect rain and storms.

I like this radar better than the others. It’s clean and simple but accurate. It’s my go to for radar information! And I appreciate the warnings with the expiration time on them. Super helpful during Tornado season.

My go to radar app!

I have been using this app for several years. And it has never let me down. I can look up whether radar wherever any of my family members are throughout the US. This includes being able to track hurricanes for family members who are down in the southern part of the US. Thank you for such a great app! I only gave it four stars, because I am a believer that an improvement can always be made somewhere.

This is a very helpful app. I use it to predict exactly when bad weather will arrive.

I use it all the time to asses local and other US locations weather.

Beautiful underlying topo map with fast easy to read radar images.

Must have! As a flight instructor accuracy and the ability to select different scan angles is a must. This app has it all. Make it simple or technical. Loads quickly and a gas to tinker with. Every aviator should have 2 radar apps. Get this one!!

Lets me get my daily walk in, if rains coming, I'll know about it! Use it every day! As a Motorcyclist great on long trips. Still good.

I use this app every day and would be lost weather wise without it! It shows exactly where the weather is in my area, what the weather is like and helps me to even know when to take my dog out between the rain drops. Can’t live without it. I like it’s simplicity and accuracy. Would recommend this app!!!!!

Never let me down ... cheap at twice the price!

Was perfect now portrait mode not working. Bug or bad move, either way I am using less.

I’ve been using this app for years. With my job I drove a lot, it always helped plan for what was ahead.

I have been using this app for a long time, and it has always been great. However the latest release has forced the landscape view on my iPad. I don’t know if that’s a bug or a design decision. Either way portrait mode needs to return. Until such time I can no longer give this five stars.

Like the watch and warning boxes that appear when a cell is for real. Accurate and dependable for this aviator ✈️

Very accurate, at times has 1 minute past radar. I've used this app for nearly three years and coworkers come to me to find out if when and how long rain will last. Nobody mentions the complete world map which I've used while driving to try and miss flooding or head through open storm areas. This and the full radar and forecasts from noaa full web pages are the mainstay for planning the day/evening

Very accurate and up to date weather maps , much better than others I've tried. Even if you have other weather apps I suggest installing this one as a backup , I'm sure you'll find it very dependable.

On the golf course, where it’s sometimes critical to know if that rainstorm is going to pass anytime soon, my foursome has learned to put their phones away and trust my NOAA Radar - it’s simply more accurate than the others and it’s graphically better as well. Plus, I’d shrink the screen you can see where rain is anywhere in the country which is kind of cool.

This app worked great for a while. It started crashing every time I opened it. So I deleted it. Then went back and downloaded it again. Same results. It boots stays on for a few seconds then crashes. I deleted it again. I want my money back!!!

It may not be as pretty as some of those other radar/weather apps out there. But because I obsess over accurate weather information I have tried dozens of them and this one always comes out on top for radar.

I have many various weather apps as I spend a considerable amount of time out on the big waters of Lake Superior. This is my "go to" radar app when I need to know what's going on with approaching weather. Also, I'm a real estate broker and spend considerable time way back in the woods of the upper peninsula. Whenever I'm heading into the backwoods, I set this app to the satellite image mode for pinpoint accuracy of my location. This is one of my top 5 apps out of more than 100 on my device to choose from!

Great app. Love it!

Works very nicely. Seems accurate and reliable. Does what it says it will. One of my favorite radar apps.
