RadarScope App Reviews

Would be nice if you could add mph to storm tracks

Font Size

Unfortunately, in the last update of RadarScope, the general iphone settings for font size adjustment requires the font to be set too small for my needs to be able to decrease the size of map display names for radar locations, and city name size, sufficiently. This otherwise, wonderful app requires it own font adjustment.

bring the sweep back & decrease the font size

Its always been a great app, but the unnecessary tweaks arent cool at all. If you couldnt keep the sweep and font size the same, was it really necessary to do the update? Or was it not worth figuring out?

Best radar app!

This is my go to radar app. You cant beat the price for Level 2 radar data. I have never had a problem with this app for the many years I have been using it. Would buy this pleasurable app over again any day. Love the many features it has to offer.

Great App

I had a few issues with Radar Scope Pro that I either did not understand or was aware of. I can say that these issues were very promptly resolved by the WDT Tech Support people. I asked a couple of questions and within less than one hour the questions were completely answered in great detail but in language that anyone could easily understand.

Radar update too slow

Just got this app yesterday and am monitoring a huge storm today. Figured everything out in the app and it functions great. Only problem is my radar info is 42 minutes old. I see nowhere how to update this. Help says it updates slowly sometimes. But how slowly !!!

Best weather app - but

I miss the sweeping radar!! Bring it back! And it would be great to have an option to choose the radar site you want as a home option.... Also.... This is the third time youve changed the layout.... Leave it alone.... Thanks!

Best radar app Ive ever used.

Love this app. Always has fresh updates (that work). VERY accurate! User friendly for beginners, lots of tools for experts.

Only Complaints:

Costs too much No forecasts, whatsoever Pro version costs too much No lightning strike counter UI is just OK Radar is somewhat low-def Other than that its a fantastic a app, but dont buy this if youre just the average consumer. FOR WX GEEKS ONLY!!!!!!!!!!

It doesnt get any better for IOS

Plain and simple, $10 to purchase and $10/year for pro features such as dual plane to review both radar and velocity at the same time which zooms in and out at the same time on both planes. It doesnt get any better for IOS weather apps but this is for the weather enthusiast who wants to know more about a storm and what it is doing accurately. The pro subscription gives you airport TDW radar which is extremely accurate and high resolution. If you live anywhere near a airport take advantage of the higher resolution radar available for pilots and related.

Almost perfect, but not quite

This app is very, very good. I find it to be fast and accurate. I would give it a higher rating (and even be willing to pay annual subscription) if the storm tracks displayed an ETA and cities in the path data. Competitor apps already have that in place at no fee.

The Best Radar App Ever

I really dont know where to start with this app. It is simply... fantastic. It is like having those professional radar programs you see on TV, but much cheaper. If you are a weather aficionado/storm chaser, ignore the $9.99 price tag and BUY THIS APP. The scans are real time, efficient, and are extremely easy to navigate. It has all the scans that you would expect (reflectivity, velocity, CC, ET, etc.) and the first two types contain the raw unprocessed radar scans that are not only informative, but beautiful. This is a product that I definitely recommend!

R.S.

The best radar app Ive ever owned. Straight forward, easy to use, outstanding for novice or expert use.

When your life depends on radar, this is it!

Update: Nothing compares. Had a batch of tornados here in the Midwest and this was spot on. Im a weather app junkie with many apps purchased. This is a professional grade app that continues to improve. If you need to know where a storm really is there is no other app I use. The recently added storm tracks is a great addition. Use the Vertically Integrated Liquid radar to gauge a cell intensity. In general this app taught me a lot on how to use and judge other radar tools/apps. Update: New version looks solid and the best radar app, period!

Awesome!!! Best Radar App Out There!!!

Best radar app out there. Worth the money, worth the pro subscription. Suggestion: Would like a feature whereby I could setup push notifications of storms within a certain milage if my location or radar. Not necessarily warnings but any weather incoming. Would like to make it so I dont have to check the radar every so often.

Disappointed

The RADAR is great but the little things are gone now. Font on the maps for RADARs is ugly now. RADAR sweeps are gone. I know - they werent realtime and were really useless but there was this cool-factor... Also, the roads on the maps have been set back about 10 years. Highways in my area that are new have disappeared off the new updates maps. Liked the prior version a lot better.

Dont change things which we the users are used to!

This is by far the BEST RADAR app there is... So dont change things were used to... Whose big idea was it to move the elapsed time from the top center to the bottom right? I dont even bother using this app after that screwed up my viewing. Now, was that NECESSARY? NO... please change it back or give us the option where it can be displayed. Thank you.

Continues To Remain #1 Doppler Radar App

RadarScope continues to be the number one mobile app for Doppler Radar. Other radar sources may provide fancy layering but if you are looking for access to the highest resolution radar data available publicly (Level 2), you need this app. Ive been a user for 4+ years and WDT continues to update and add innovative features never before seen on a mobile/tablet device. Upload GIF or Video animations to Twitter or save locally for import into any other application that accepts GIF or Video files. The severe thunderstorm, tornado, and flash flood polygons are updated faster than any other app I have used. You can click on a warning and get the detailed statement from the NWS. If you are a professional, enthusiast, public official, decision maker, event planner, or even the public, RadarScope has a purpose for your device. Its the only application I visit daily (other than my alarm clock).

Good app

Its a good app, but they need to bring the radar sweep back, or youre just guessing on the range of the radar

An Awesome App

I recently used this app on a July road trip from Georgia to Arizona. It came in very handy also very accurate with the lightning strikes. I want to mention that technical support addressed a technical problem that I had within a matter of hours just recently. This is my "go to" weather app because it is so reliable. Worth the money and that includes the pro version.
