User Reviews

StormTrack 5 is praised for accuracy, radar accessibility, reliable alerts, and ease of use across devices. However, several reviews note a recent update introduced UI clutter and less usable designs, and some users report regional forecast inaccuracies. Overall, it remains a top weather tool, but users want a cleaner interface and more consistent area-specific forecasts.
Pros
  • Highly accurate forecasts and reliable near-term predictions
  • Fast, accessible radar features (radar at the touch of a button)
  • Strong storm alerts and lightning-distance notifications
  • Easy to navigate and user-friendly interface
  • Free app with multi-device support (used on 3 devices)
Cons
  • UI clutter and design changes after the update that reduce readability and functionality (e.g., on-screen clutter, bottom white bar, inability to go wide)
  • Forecast accuracy can be inconsistent for some regions (e.g., Cleveland snow forecasts)
Recent reviews
I have always loved this app, but the recent update has made it less lovable. There is extra clutter on the screen, and if I switch to a different view the app no longer remembers my custom settings and I have to select my custom map again. Surely you could have added the 24 hour future radar without our having to save and select our “custom map.” I liked it much better when it just saved my last selections automatically. Also, the earthquake feature now seems to only show very recent earthquakes instead of showing those from the past 24 hours, and when I tap on an earthquake icon to get more information it no longer tells the location. I wish you would do a new update that starts with the previous version and just adds the “24 hour future” radar. If you can’t do that, just give us the previous version the way it used to be, with the full earthquake information and without all the current clutter.

Fix the stupid update now. I'm sick of it. Hate the white at the bottom, and hate how it won't go wide view.

This app doesn’t seem to connect with my WiFi and everything thing else is. Crazy
