![]() I’ve tested it out on all those, and it worked great. Oh, and it has seamless integration with my Apple Watch, my Apple TV and my iPad. The negative reviews are mostly because of people not understanding what they are getting. Plenty of options exist if that’s all you want. It’s not a simple weather forecasting app. This app focuses on doing one thing - presenting you with comprehensive access to the latest NOAA radar images in hi-res. But, understand - this is a bit more advanced than your typical weather app. My only regret is not getting this sooner. But, fearing lately with some recent tornado watches and warnings near my home, I made the purchase. And, THIS IS NOT ONE ON THEM! I you want an app that can delve into NexRad Level 2 and Level 3 radar feeds, including velocities and other important images needed for those who pay attention to storms and early indicators of severity and rotation, THIS IS YOUR RADAR APP!! Look no further! I hesitated for a while now because of the $10 price tag. And there are far too many similarities between them, with only one or two that are reasonable. I would beware that you may be asked more often about the weather once people know you have the best app anyone can get.īest radar app for the weather enthusiast and t-storm junkie star star star star starĬS Guy's Review of Radarscope Reviewed on 8/28/19 1:37 PMįirst there are clearly too many radar apps on the App Store that are really more about weather conditions and forecasts. I’m by far not a professional I’ve been intrigued with weather watching and to k*** some time. ![]() There is no other radar app I would ever ask for. Then I opened RadarScope and with beautiful raw data, there was a small cell about 5 miles round/wide measured ‘using the included distance tool’ □□□□ best feature ever!! I opened the weather channel app (I know a sin, but it’s a simple swipe up) It said “partly cloudy” of all things. I was just getting ready to leave work and it starts pouring rain. Big storms are great to see and watch on the app but let me tell you about the small storms. Just a week ago in (Chicago) we’ve hand many big and small storms run through. No other app offers this level of pin point accuracy/untouched radar. Knowing you have to choose different radars means your getting accuracy within 150-300 miles. These negative reviews this app is getting are false. I’ve been using radar scope since the beginning of its time and have compared it to many weather apps which do not even come close to the raw data you see. When ever someone looks at the weather they go directly to the weather channel (lame). This is the question I get asked at any party, family event, or any other occasion when rain is forecasted or just for the fun of it. IMacGuy101's Review of Radarscope Reviewed on 8/29/18 2:22 AM “How bad is the storm” Love this app #1 star star star star star ![]() Also, note that data is provided mainly for the United States. The warnings from the other raters bear repeating here: if you don’t have the knowledge to get the most out of this and aren’t willing to take the time to learn, or if you’re just looking for a basic weather summary to know whether to take a jacket or if your tee time will get rained out, or even if you’re just looking for a basic weather radar, then this app is most definitely NOT the app for you. To get full use of it as a non-professional make sure you throughly read the “Radar Products” section in the user guide (and perhaps even outside sources to flesh out the details) to make sure you understand what your looking at (and in that sense, this app also is hands-down the best meteorology education tool on the market). However, it’s totally worth the investment if you’re looking to step up your weather game. Yes, this one has a steep learning curve if you’re an untrained, amateur meteorology enthusiast such as myself (I assume if you had a a solid meteorology background, this app would be a piece of cake to use). I figured if it’s good enough for the folks who rely on it to navigate life-or-death situations where small errors could have catastrophic consequences, then it must be one amazing app. I found out about RadarScope from watching livestreams of professional storm chasers using it. star star star star starīreakbeatman1234589's Review of Radarscope Reviewed on 9/14/18 9:40 PMįive stars is not enough! RadarScope is not only my absolute favorite weather-related app but is solidly one of my top-five overall favorite apps of all time-one of those rare “It’s so good it’s worth buying an iPad just to use it” apps. Best app for pro and amateur weather enthusiasts.
