NOAA Live Weather Radar Reviews

Can not unsubscribe. Directs say “go to account” but I can’t find account info on NOAALiveWeatherRadar

$24/month subscription!

Might be worthwhile if NOAALiveWeatherRadar delivered. Not yet ready for much more than alpha or maybe beta testing.

The photos don’t represent what is shown.
The layers don’t contain much besides the map and a color to indicate something undefined. No legend. No means of turning a legend on. Temperature layer showed no temps. Wind layer showed no breeze rates.

Buggy. I specified Fahrenheit but got Celsius on the screen that showed a temp for my community. After verifying I had set it correctly I could only accidentally trigger the page again.
Buttons at lower right are too close to sides to be consistently accessed except by stylus.

Hope development continues as the concept is good. Delivery of concept is poor so far.

Won’t let you see the radar forecast for the future unless you pay. Both the Apple Weather and Weather Channel apps do that for free. There’s no point in using NOAALiveWeatherRadar over the competition.

by Paul Murk

I thought it was a government free app to stay ahead of disasters. Instead it’s a money grabbing app that doesn’t provide anything better than what Apple has on my phone to begin with.. sorry I am deleting NOAALiveWeatherRadar .

NOAALiveWeatherRadar is way to expensive for the very limited features it has. Even basic features are missing. It also annoying that my town disappears off the map when I zoom out more. However, I should be able to focus or keep my own town in the map when I zoom out more to see a larger storm relative to my town.

Shame on you NOAA. We are in the path of a history-making hurricane/tropical storm in SoCal and your app doesn’t allow us to see forecasts without giving you CC info. I don’t care if it’s a free-trial. The free version allows me to see radar for weather that has already happened. I only need to open the front door for that information. What I want to know is what I can expect in the next few hours and overnight. How dare you withhold information that could save lives and help people make informed decisions!

App is great to keep up with severe weather & to stay prepared

by Agwaaaaaa

The very few reviews available are either one star or read like a simpleton robot. The Majority are one star for good reason. It’s junk. It doesn’t work for the most part and it hides behind The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration. Snakes. Go to your App Store and discontinue the three day trial to get your six bucks back if purchased.

Six bucks a week that is! Until you cancel

by Buck-hunter

Shows no weather when my other weather app shows storms. This is junk. Do not get NOAALiveWeatherRadar. It deserves no stars

by Haifa May

NOAALiveWeatherRadar is an imposter. Don’t give them you’re money

by TickledSilly

NOAALiveWeatherRadar is really creative and I love to UI. Very nice

by Buddy Bob

Can’t get past the ads to actually use NOAALiveWeatherRadar .

If you live in Florida or another state or area that deals with these storms, this is NOAALiveWeatherRadar you want to have. I’ve used NOAALiveWeatherRadar for many years and wouldn’t be without it.

by Elephantbot

Way too many ads, not even run by NOAA. Wants $5.99 a WEEK to be able to view the screen, which is only about 60% visible due to the constant in app advertisements and shoddy placement of icons. High ratings are probably paid reviews. The developer responds with empty words. NOAALiveWeatherRadar is a money grab and not worth the time to download it.

by 1959Renserk

Downloaded and deleted within 5 mins. Dinged my Apple account $5.99! Don’t recall agreeing to a subscription. I want my $5.99 back. What a scam. Downloaded beware!

Bubble with temperature blocks your view of what you want to see. constant incessant nag screens. Weather bug is free and has more features.

I downloaded this and was doing the free trial of premium because we had severe weather in the area and often tend to have bad weather throughout the year, hurricanes etc.

Upon downloading, I enabled location services and it did go to my area… we were under a tornado warning, and my other weather apps showed 10 alerts of different types. The radar looked terrible both on my other apps and the local tv station… we had hail and flooding, yet NOAALiveWeatherRadar showed light green with some yellow to the west of us kinda far off. How?? No alerts?? We had a tornado touch down 10 miles away, and NOAALiveWeatherRadar showed absolutely nothing!!

by Rubie Luna

This is a weather app, why would you want an app that will only help you track wind and temperature, and that puts all other weather, even emergency weather, behind a paywall? I think it’s disgusting. People who need to watch for storms often should just look at their local news instead or find a different app that isn’t run by money grubbing psychopaths. NOAALiveWeatherRadar is garbage.

by FranktheEngineer

Even though NOAALiveWeatherRadar store says it’s free, you MUST sign up for “free 3-day trial” and cancel later. No thanks!

by No Way To Cancel $5/week

Spent 30 mins trying to cancel the “free trial/cancel anytime” - no apparent way to cancel $5/week!

by Photomama123

I downloaded NOAALiveWeatherRadar and right away it wants you to sign up for premium. That’s NOT ‘in app purchases’ which is what the description says. It’s- NOAALiveWeatherRadar costs money. I wish these apps would be upfront and honest about the costs and stop wasting my time downloading and deleting!

by HiKidsDoYouLikeGuns

App is a ripoff. Wants you to pay an $6 weekly subscriptions to use features you can get free on other weather apps.

by Mr. Yzerman

You have to pay to make it even vaguely useful

by EngSci1T3

So many one-star reviews, how the heck did NOAALiveWeatherRadar get 4.6 average rating? Google sponsored apps cannot be trusted.

by Uninstalled,wasteof$

NOAALiveWeatherRadar does everything it can to get you to pay 6$ a week,

by Dustinrox

I do not want NOAALiveWeatherRadar. There is no option in NOAALiveWeatherRadar to cancel. I made a mistake downloading this.

by Complexity2

The first thing I noticed is that it is only in portrait mode, yet maps are much better displayed in horizontal mode. I have a large iPad for my eyesight, and I don’t like apps that squeeze everything into a tiny sliver.

Then, before I could even see anything about NOAALiveWeatherRadar , it tried to force me to a subscription plan – 3 days free, then $6 a week (which is $312 a year!). Um, nope! I’m not about to spend that kind of money on an app that can’t even go into horizontal mode on an iPad.

Deleted NOAALiveWeatherRadar immediately.

by Caseythomas87

I have an iPhone 15 Pro Max - the application does not fit correctly on the screen and is cut off around the edges - making some features and navigation inaccessible. Restarted app, restarted phone, redownloaded app - problem still persists.

by Hipppppster

Seems to be a good Weather app but if you want to have future cast radar, you have to pay. The radar stops at the current time you have to pay 5.99 a week to have a future radar. Outrageous have never seen any weather app charge for that service on top of that. I don’t think that the map of radar is very good anyway and page ads. I deleted NOAALiveWeatherRadar right away. if you want future cast, forget NOAALiveWeatherRadar

by Charolais Charndoney

Ad says FREE live weather… after you download then it’s $5.99/ a week and cancel
Any time.
That’s not same as free

by DonRCollins

Keep your credit card in hand. Just trying to review NOAALiveWeatherRadar , every button was a fee.

by Angel_minecraft123

This thing doesn’t show clouds or anything near my area. Only other states. How come I’m from Chicago and I can’t see no clouds even though there’s a STORM happening right now? Wow! Thanks so much.

by Movie Reviews Mom

Don’t waste your time downloading and getting through all the subscriptions and ads. Who is using this? How is it rated so high.

by Get Clapped101

So I got NOAALiveWeatherRadar hoping to see some hurricanes and tornadoes but you need to pay for that stuff??? Come on man

by RJKBIII

Between pop up ads and limited functionality in the free version does not give me anything useful.

by Jbohacheff

Too many ads. Always pushing for a pay for service subscription. This is billed as NOAA. Just an app to charge for free service.
