Notifies but radar and map problem

Pdk754

Wrote a review in August. Four months later, same problems! I get notifications when lightening, thunder, storms are nearby. When I open the app, the map rarely loads over the city I'm in. The radar shows the map the same way. Many times, it either doesn't play, or it's playing up to half an hour ago. Not recent. Worked for a while after last update. Problems are all back again.


Works Great with One Exception

When location is turned to Always and my local radar (Melbourne) is selected the Melbourne radar appears for about a minute, then the current location icon turns grey and the local radar turns back to the default (Jacksonville). This only occurs on iPad.


A real battery killer

This app constantly runs your GPS, even when it's not in use, greatly reducing your battery life. There's no need for such a design.


Location tracking bummer

Scall0way

Nice to see radar, and listen to my local radio station. I hate that the location tracking feature choices are only ALWAYS or NEVER. Most of my apps that need a location offer an option of ONLY WHEN USING APP and this is what I always choose. I don't need or want any apps killing my battery life by constantly polling my location when I'm not using them, only when I'm using the app. Since this app doesn't offer that my only choice is to select NEVER which sort of defeats usability features of this app.


Great App, no annoying advertising

Everything seems to work pretty good with this app and no annoying ads. Only one thing I found as a negative is that it didn’t keep up with my location that well to warn me of incoming storms. While another app I have warned me, this one did not (and both seem to use the same “Safety Net Alerts” settings setup). Also, I don’t know if this is an app issue or my phone, but for some reason my phone gets really hot temp wise when I use this for more than a few minutes.
