Gave it 5 stars initially because it was working well on first test. However, the data source is very hit and miss. I've been testing this to consider using it in our early warning detection systems for severe weather management but it's not anywhere near accurate enough compared to other products. Pity, because it's a nice and simple app, our team liked it immediately

Hasn't worked right with push notifications since the latest update earlier this month. I have the same problem happening on two different Android devices, different manufacturers. Exactly the same issue. I'll get one notification and then they just stop. Used to work just fine. Not sure what happened. Have read through the notifications troubleshooting page and nothing there was the problem on either device. Frustrating.

A useful app for tracking storms and weather generally. However I've noticed that lightning strikes notified are almost invariably around 40 miles away (from all points of the compass). I don't think I live in some kind of protected area so wonder about the accuracy of this app.
