Very Good and with accuracy it's quite decent, although there are a few errors and glitches.. For example, my phone said there was a few lightning strikes 16 miles away, while my brother's and dad's phone said there was also a few like 3 miles away. Could be better with a rain bar so it shows a certain color for a certain amount of rain.

I used to use this app almost as much as the weather forecasting apps. Last week I got more notifications indicating lightning strikes nearby, but they indicated that the strike was more that 30 minutes ago, and checking the map was useless, as the dots for the strike were no longer present. Being able to predict rain is a necessity for beekeeping, and knowing where the storms are, are even more important, if standing in a field.

Thank you for reporting this. I am investigating a better source for the radar imagery, so hopefully the radar will become more useful to you. This does not affect the lightning strikes shown by the app, which come from other sources.

Even though several of my Android weather apps could provide lightning notification, I prefer this lightweight app as my singular lightning notifier. I choose not to run my weather apps with their notifications enabled. Such notifications from weather apps in addition to my location enabled are unnecessarily demanding of my battery. This app is accurate, dependable, and very easy on my battery and other system resources. It serves flawlessly its intended purpose for this ham radio operator.
