by D####:

If so what fixes are you planing on making? Or at least get it running again as no matter what location I choose now, it will just no longer work or even open. So please do something or withdraw your app...

M70%
by M####:

This is still the best app for just rainfall. Please stabilise the app so it allows choice of another radar if local is down. Plenty of radars overlap. A big no go shutdown doesn't reflect good tech.

I can't even open the app just shows errors message . .and same on my boyfriend's phone both Uninstalling. . Won't work have sent many error reports . . So disappointed !!

K70%
by K####:

Even after a reboot and with this the only app open, its very sluggish to access the menu to change zoom levels. Otherwise, it's great. If you could streamline the zoom change it would be better

Almost every time I set the app to Appin radar NSW it crashes. The only way to get the app to work again is to uninstall and reinstall then set to Sydney........ That's not even working now so it's a constant crash app - uninstalling

Z70%
by Z####:

I used this everyday for a long time. It used to be good, no fuss, but it's not robust - crashes in loops if your default radar is down. This is happening more and more and is rendering the app unusable :-( I wish the dev would implement a graceful exception handler.

K70%

Unusable for past few weeks. Black background with coloured rain markers so no idea on map where they r falling. Note 5 6.01

Was reallt good and my go to app. Now. Never opens. Always problems ans frustrating me. Unistalled. Sad. Used to be an every day must use app

Z70%
by Z####:

Worked fine up until a few days ago, latest update to the xperia z5 firmware killed it. Doesn't load. Just crashes on start up. Dunno if I should blame Sony or Google.

App crashes on any radar page now, and the last app update was jan 2012.. been using this app for 8 years! It's been a long fantastic ride but i guess it's time to move on. RIP :-(

Z70%
by Z####:

Used to work brilliantly but lately will not even open. It appears as if it is not maintained at all. Should be removed as it is useless in its present form

Z70%

App crashes when selecting area (bairnsdale) then keeps crashing when trying to open. Uses to work on my old phone.

Z70%
by Z####:

Works great now after last two updates, but why does the Sydney radar at 512km view go black? No biggy but it's been there a long time with no fix. Galaxy s 2

F70%
by F####:

Used to be a good reliable radar, but for the last week has not worked. Uninstalled it, reinstalled it, and still crap. Constantly get message that it has stopped. Not good enough.

Z70%
by Z####:

One day this app decided to instantly crash on launch. Closest attempt at recovery was clearing data, this enabled a restart but it simply pooed it's pants as soon as a radar station was chosen. I note many others have same complaints... Un-addressed? Go to "Rain" Its what this one was and it works.

Used on my So 4 star. Installed on my S5. Open crash. Open crash etc Uninstall. Reinstalled. Crashed again.

Z70%
by Z####:

Now it just does not work. Probably BoM messing with their site, but either way, its broken now.

Z70%
by Z####:

Fails to open constantly I have kept uninstalling and reinstalling for over a year now and just keeps happening.. Gone for good now because they never fix it

Z70%
by Z####:

Since update it wont work anymore on my S5 :( Otherwise a great application

Z70%
by Z####:

Radar images regularly go black. No refresh button, so images can be days out of date because the app has stayed open in the background.

W70%
by W####:

Like a lot of other reviewers have said, was great but now no longer works and appears unsupported. Shame.

C70%
by C####:

Program crashes on opening for last three weeks. Used to be great program until then

Z70%
by Z####:

This app used to be the best, but is now crap and has been for some time. It crashes immediately upon startup every time try BOM site, it works

Y70%
by Y####:

I like how it is the simple bom radar. Don't need much else, except a gps dot for the user's exact location would be very helpful! Also force closes if the radar isn't working or if you have no net sync

T70%
by T####:

Great app but it crashes if it can't access a station. The only way round this is to uninstall the app. Devs please sort this out this long running problem. It's a simple error checking loop that can't be too hard to add in.

X70%
by X####:

When it Works it works but unfortunately it breaks and wont run more often than not... Reporting is useless as the developer seemingly ignores these Reports as its been out of operation now for 2 weeks. Uninstalling now for good. Shall use Higgins Storm Chasing instead.

The app would be more awesome if it gave a location apon the radar map of where the user is located via gps

Good simple app when it works. For some reason when the bom radar is down, the app crashes. Surely it'd be better to just have a pop up saying radar feed is down.

Y70%
by Y####:

This app is brilliant, no other app offers the radar like this one.. However one day the map just broke and now my screen is black.. I have nothing to base where the rain is off of other than Sydney is about the middle of the screen... 4 or maybe 5 stars if this is fixed

X70%
by X####:

Brisbane Mt Stapylton chosen, app just crashes on opening. No option to choose other site. Click settings/ apps and clear data to select different station. In the meantime, devs should fix the app to cope with these situations.

D70%
by D####:

When a site goes down, the app just closes. I have found the only way around this problem is to de install the app and pick another site.

D70%
by D####:

Would be a great app if you didn't need to uninstall and reinstall when the radar site your using is down just to get the app to open so you can then get to the map of the different radars that are available to choose a new one. How about fixing this annoying defect. If you do I would actually re-rate your rather useful app some what better. Yep tried Mt Stayplton radar and I need to uninstall and reinstall to get it to work so it will stay uninstalled, would rate it no stars if I could

Does what it says, and is fine if you don't often need to switch between different radars. Desperately needs a Refresh button to get the latest images.

Force close on note3 kit kat. Used this for years with no issues. When did this stop working?

T70%
by T####:

I love this app. When I'm out and about on my bicycle I can see where the rain is headed. I've used it for about a year, and it works very well. I recommend it to everyone in Australia.
