I love all the details on the first screen! (and all the other screens.) Great app, thanks for creating this!

I like the NOAA cards & info. The dev. is quick to answer questions and updates the app. Bought the lifetime and can't wait to see what the developer brings to the table next.

This app offers so much more information than the weather apps I used to use on my phone. The local NWS posts that are shown here are super useful.

no-frills, information-focused professional weather app that doesn't obfuscate info with stupid "modern" graphics and try to extract money from you. It just presents what you need to know about the weather!

really reliable, which is surprising to find in any weather app, 10/10 I highly recommend to all who work outside or simply wish to know the weather!

Nice weather app. Unlike all the other weather apps I've tried, it provides all the weather info I might want in detail. Very responsive creator. They even created a single 1x1 widget for Android when I requested it.

Most accurate weather app I've used to date. I'd say about 95% consistent with what the weather actually is vs what the app reports. This is my goto weather app now

I have always enjoyed using this as my main weather app. Not only is the widget great for the home screen, there are so many interactive features to truly understand the weather, much greater than other weather apps, would highly recommend.

This app is awesome for Florida or hurricane areas!! Sleek, intuitive, but packed with layers of info, you can go as deep as you want (att: weather geeks)! I'm replacing 4 or 5 other 'pro' apps with this, it has it all - keep it up dude, you have definitely found your calling! 😄👍

This is a great weather app. Very accurate, and it has great features. The major downside to me is that the widget doesn't update until you open the app. If this issue was addressed, it would be awesome.

I have downloaded National Weather Service related apps in the past. This is one thought out app that presents most, if not all, the severe weather panes in a simpler fashion. This will be my go to app when it comes to NOAA app.

Loving it so far! The only thing I can think of is adding a refresh button to the widget (I'm using the large one - 4x3) so I can easily see the current forecast when I'm tracking a storm 👍🏼

Great app, I'll keep it. But the 1x1 temperature widget is wonky. The temperature doesn't ever change, even after I go into the app to check the temperature. Other than that this is perfect.

A winter storm is approaching, and while I've always trusted NOAA/NWS the most, their website is pretty janky. I found this app on a reddit post from nearly a year ago, and wow just 5 minutes in and this app is incredible. I paid for a month of premium (for $2? Incrediblely reasonable) Just like that, shows me the estimated snowfall for the next 12hrs, some of the coolest radar options I've ever seen. This app is exactly what I've been looking for.

Wow! What a great weather app using the NWS product! Lots of detailed information yet sleek and intuitive! If possible, adding current barometric pressure to current weather information, and a temperature value for the ongoing notification as an option instead of current conditions would be great! Keep up the good work!

Lots of potential. The radar skips by 2 hour increments which is not ideal. And the forecast highs and lows on the cover page of the 1 week forecast and daily one, do not match what's inside the weather report.

Edit-App performs great and is pretty accurate. Would still like to see precipitation start/stop push notifications and also lightning push notifications. Just downloaded and looks to be a cohesive app. Does it do push notifications for precipitation and alerts? Would like to see alerts shown in the widgets. I'm going to try it for a few days. Hoping I've found my new "go to" app.

Hands down, my favorite weather app of all time. Data from the NWS, not some company with limited info. And the best part? I sent in a bug report, the developer responded to me immediately and fixed it on the next possible release. Cannot overstate how nice it is to have an app where you feel like your input is being listened to.

The U.I. looks lovely, and well laid out. I don't recall having to log into an account, or create one. That is where the positives end for me. Unfortunately, with the free version, the app (in my neck of the woods) felt extremely inaccurate and unreliable with how I could plan my day, or week. Obviously, I could just pull up alternatives you say, or pay for the free version, but I even felt the ad implementation was poor, causing pages to spasm up and down when a new one appeared. Disappointed.
