great app but the rain radar for Bali stopped working a few days ago. I bought this app for my travels in Bali so not happy as it is not reliable. Worked for a few days then stopped after I paid for it.

Certainly one of the best rain radar apps in Google Play, as I live in Finland, I was using Rain Alerts, which also gives predictions for 2 hours, unfortunately the app has not been updated for some time. The predictions on Rain Radar, seem quite accurate.

An absolutely incredible app. Thanks for all the efforts and for keeping the app ad clean. Could not recommend this app enough.
