User reviews

MyRadar Weather Radar is widely praised for its accurate and detailed weather radar, layering options, and storm tracking, with loyal long-term users appreciating its past reliability. However, many recent updates have introduced problems such as degraded radar accuracy, intrusive subscription models replacing lifetime purchases, excessive ads, UI changes that hamper usability, and technical glitches including slow loading and Android Auto integration issues. Users also miss previous display features like directional storm arrows and classic radar styles. While the free version remains functional, dissatisfaction with recent changes and forced subscriptions are common themes among reviews.

Cons

Recent updates have degraded the app's accuracy and reliability, especially in radar data and temperature reporting.
The app has shifted to a subscription model, removing lifetime purchases and forcing paid recurring fees, upsetting paying users.
Excessive and intrusive advertisements and popup notifications, including 'hotspot proximity alerts' and app-promoted ads even for paid users.
UI changes and new design elements, such as the map size and weather strip, have frustrated users due to poor usability and aesthetic choices.
Technical issues include slow loading times for layers, glitches with the map display, and problems with satellite/weather layers.
Loss of features such as directional storm arrows and classic radar style, replaced by hyper-filtered, less informative visuals.
Problems with Android Auto integration, causing navigation conflicts and safety concerns.
Lack of important comfort features like a location search function and issues with restoring previous purchases.

I can't tell you how many times I have use this over all other versions because it's accurate and has layers for me to view. Even though I'm reinstalling is because this is a new phone and I haven't technically needed the weather up till a new project and for the snow weather of course. 5 stars. Please add more like more maps possibly an accurate one of several different views of the map and some for those flat earthers. Those ideas are cool and would bring in more people 🤗 😉 👋

Good app but what's this constant three or four times a day 'hotspot proximity alert' notifications. Just tell me when there's a fire not that it's dry out all the time. And I've turned off just about every notification that there could possibly be for that. Thinking of finding a new app.
