global storms App Reviews

It is a safety item. Every time there is a weather or related watch, warning or whatever -- it shows up here. All of the information shows up. There are the complete NOAA text, maps, references to additl info, if it exists, anything else relevant. I think I have 20 (+/-) weather apps between the iPad and iPhone. They change from time to time, depending on the app development, seasons, etc. But this app hasnt been deleted yet. The app is especially relevant during severe weather season here in the Midwest for tornadoes, hail, thunderstorms, flooding. Simple and relevant. Good.

The app gets to the menu page but then continuously give me "Network Error - No connection to the server..." This is usually my go-to forecasting app. PLEASE FIX IT!!! Ill rate it a 5 star after you fix it.

All I get is a message saying network error… No connection to server. Says please try again later or check the NOAA Now support page for possible causes. Useless.

I downloaded this app for my iPhone 6 to find out more about the Aurora borealis that’s supposed to be visible across most of the U. S. tonight — and what a nightmare that turned out to be. The app took me to a webpage in Safari where I was asked for my ZIP Code for accurate weather notifications. I was then asked if I would like to receive weather notifications, to which I agreed (big mistake!). The app then added an email account under Mail, Contacts, and Calendars, with which I was not familiar, and which was mostly spam -- and this new e-mail account became the primary server with no way to delete it. I was sure this malware or worse, and that my sensitive info was being hacked. It took a long phone call to Apple techs and two clean install attempts from iTunes before I was able to get rid of that mystery email/server account. Stay away!

Totally useless weather app! Posey NOAA you need to do a lot better than this!

Used to be great with useful content you could understand. They started removing the useful features a while ago. Now theyve added a pop-up add when you open the app - IF the app will even open. Gets worse with each update.

And I cant get rid of it!

This app used to be good. Now, every update makes it worse. Pop up adds were added on. Some features I like were taken away. I doubt this app is owned by NOAA
