    Ads are overwhelmingly

    I understand the need and use for ads in applications that are free. However, this application takes it to an all new level. I have never in my life, viewed a radar and been interrupted in the middle of watching a radar animation to have an ad pop-up what's worse is they use the kind of ads used by other applications, like words with friends that make you watch a video. this shows the immaturity of the marketing and development people involved with this app who think that the more ads they throw at you the more it'll motivate you to purchase the ad free version. Problem is the opposite is true better just to leave the ads out altogether, and have the merits of premium featureswarrant and encourage someone to upgrade. This is no better than Clickbait articles that are full of advertisements and pop-ups. There are too many excellent weather applications available today. Maybe they should take some time and learn from those apps.

About RainViewer: Live Weather Radar

3,529 characters

Live weather radar with rain alerts, local forecast, and hurricane tracker. The most accurate radar map - made for people who need accurate weather, right now.

Going outside, planning a day out, flying a drone, or watching a storm approach? Rain Viewer shows the actual rain on the map. Data goes from radar to your screen in seconds - direct from the source, not a third-party feed. Our radar pipeline runs in millions of installs and feeds several major weather brands.

THE RADAR MAP YOU ACTUALLY USE • Tap the map to see rain intensity at any point. Tap satellite for cloud top temperature. Tap an alert zone for the full advisory. • Live indicator shows when you are seeing the most recent scan. New frames appear automatically. • 48-hour history. 2-hour rain forecast updated every 10 minutes. 60fps vector map with precipitation arrows. • Coverage in 80+ countries across the Americas, Europe, Asia (Japan, India, Thailand, China, South Korea), and Oceania.

HOURLY AND 14-DAY FORECAST Temperature, weather conditions, and chance of precipitation hour by hour for 72 hours. Wind direction and speed too, with units you choose: km/h, mph, m/s, knots, or Beaufort. Models: ICON, GFS, HRRR, ECMWF, and WRF-ROMS Thailand.

MINUTE-BY-MINUTE PRECIPITATION When rain is on the way, the forecast screen shows when it starts, peaks, and stops. Live Activity puts the same graph on your Lock Screen.

RAINFALL TOTALS (QPE) See how much rain has actually fallen. Pick a window - 1, 3, 12, 24, or 48 hours - and tap any spot on the map for the exact amount in millimeters or inches, plus a Trace to Extreme rating. Built on QPE (quantitative precipitation estimates) from our radar pipeline. Included with any Rain Viewer subscription (Essential or Pro).

RADAR SCAN AGE Tap the map to see exactly when each area was last scanned. Parts of a radar frame can be minutes apart, so the timing tells you whether to leave now or wait out the rain. Saved locations show freshness at a glance.

RAIN ALERTS YOU CAN RELY ON Set custom alerts for your locations. Get national severe weather alerts from the US, most of Europe, Thailand, Saudi Arabia, and more. Set thresholds so you only get notified for what you care about.

HURRICANE AND STORM TRACKER Get timed alerts that show exactly when a storm reaches you. Choose hurricane wind speed units: mph, km/h, m/s, or knots.

AI WEATHER INSIGHTS Our AI reads the radar images near you and writes a short summary of what to expect in the next few hours. Like a pocket meteorologist.

APPLE WATCH (FREE) Standalone app with radar map, satellite, forecast, severe alerts, and complications. Works without your iPhone nearby.

WIDGETS AND LIVE ACTIVITIES Radar and minute-by-minute rain widgets for Home Screen and Lock Screen. Live Activities show rain intensity as it changes.

PRO RADAR (US + MOST OF EUROPE, 22 COUNTRIES) Doppler products on all tilts - reflectivity, velocity, spectrum width, and the differential measurements used by meteorologists.

PRIVACY No data collection. No data sales. Location is used only for local forecast and rain alerts.
