User Reviews
This app helped me know where and when tornadoes are and helped me keep my family safe very good app ദ്ദി・ᴗ・)✧
So happy I found this app! I love seeing the data, charts, historical paths, etc. Very informative. Thank you for creating this!
Great tracking BUT only for the us and slivers of the bottom of Canada. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Has lots of free stuff for tracking storms, really useful.
This app is so dang good, best app I’ve used and you don’t even have to pay. You can use it for free, i recommend this app for tornados.
This a great app. I purchased Pro version and it is worth the money. I use it every day especially the outlook forecast.
I absolutely love the tornado tracker app! The real-time NWS alerts and hyper-local storm tracking give me total peace of mind during severe weather. The high-res radar and live lightning data are incredibly accurate, helping our family stay safe. It’s a must-have for tracking tornadoes!
I love this app because when I’m at school I can see the expired warnings or warnings right now and I can keep my family safe and I can learn on there it is actually amazing! I’m so glad I got this app!!
Love it
I am VERY pleased with this app!!!! As someone who has recently had a growing obsession with tornadoes, I have had a lot of fun using this app to study tornadoes that have recently happened!!!!!
