User Reviews

Users praise Rain Radar for accurate, timely forecasts and a fast, easy-to-use interface that shows when, where, and how hard rain will hit. However, reviews repeatedly cite heavy ads that disrupt use, regional/inconsistent accuracy, and performance problems like radar not loading or zoom issues. Some reports also note unreliable ad-free/Pro options. Overall, it’s valued for forecast quality but hindered by ads and reliability gaps.

Pros

Very accurate rain radar predictions
Forecasts rain ahead with timing to plan
Easy to use, fast to check
Shows timing, direction, and intensity of rain (comprehensive forecast)
Useful daily tool for planning activities and trips

Cons

Intrusive full-screen ads, including unclosable/interfering ads that degrade usability
Inconsistent accuracy in some regions (e.g., UK, Azores, NZ) and occasional wrong predictions
Performance/visual issues (radar animation failing to load, zoom issues with rain bands, widget problems)
Ad-free/Pro purchase options not reliably available or functional
Ads before you can check the weather / lengthy mandatory ads

Recent reviews

The ads are horrible. I'll watch an ad but at the end it won't close. This makes the app effectively unusable without force closing and a lot of BS.

I'm sure I used to be able to zoom in on the map more, but now it will only zoom in fast enough to see the whole of England but no closer. Even paid for the pro version to see if it was behind a pay wall but still the same. The radar is good though.

Very good app! The radar images are good and accurate. I really like the future radar. I wish there was a black color background option for the map. The price for Ad Free is Low. I would have paid more for a one-time fee. There is a problem that needs to be fixed though: When zooming-in on the Global Rain, the radar images disappear or partially disappear, and I can't zoom-in all the way. This does not happen for the Future Radar. I have a Pixel 6a.
