User Reviews for RadarOmega

RadarOmega

Without any doubt, no other developer’s radar product has given me the satisfaction in seeing not only the progress of the application’s features but the excellence of the customer service in such a short period of time. Please continue to excel!!Would certainly choose this application over most other apps; the subscription prices are quite fair considering the quality and content and the detailed user’s guide. I’m considering to subscribe again pending authorization of developer given my opinion above.There are a lot of new features that make this application stand out and the staff deserves some kudos for the work they have done. The updated manual will be indispensable to get the most out this high quality featuresI regret the changes in my opinion since the original review. This application is much more suited for a professional meteorologist or storm chaser; their inability to respond as often reflects this. The website needs a caveat informing the subscriber not to expect responses within 72 hoursI suggest that your Radar Omega app description contain a caveat indicating that the software is mostly intended for meteorology associated professionals; this way, the user does not expect to have full knowledge how to operate its many features. It is quite regretful that you had to mention that I asked more questions than anybody else. I hope that your future customers do not find themselves in the same predicament.

Almost Perfect

This app blows RadarScope out of the water, and I’ve been using RS for about 8 years, ever since Moore in 2013. With RadarScope’s base cost, you don’t get SPC products, special weather statements, METARs, or 30 frames of radar data. With RO, you get all that plus a road map that gets more detailed the more you zoom in, making this app preferential for chasers as we can now chase with only one app open. What really sets RadarOmega apart, however, isn’t the radar data. It’s the satellite data that can be added for $5 a month. Keep in mind, all of this except satellite is included with the base cost of the app. So with all of this, it’s cheaper than RS coupled with AllisonHouse.Some things I’d love to see added to the app to make it truly perfect are mesoanalysis, the ability to separate cities and roads to only render one invisible if so desired, METAR wind barbs, and the ability to log into Spotter Network to send reports and position information. If it weren’t for these features being absent, I’d be getting rid of RadarScope tonight. Otherwise, this app truly goes above and beyond, and I can’t wait to try it on my iPad and Windows.

Finally everything we’ve been asking for

RadarScope is the gold standard, but over the years nothing has changed and it’s getting very dated. No street mapping is the biggest downfall of RS when chasing. Also the 10 minute radar refresh makes it almost unusable.I understand that RO is still young and borderline still in beta, but the potential is there! Everything everyone has ever complained about with RS is available with RadarOmega. 5 minute radar refresh and street mapping is amazing. Once spotter network reporting gets implemented I can finally uninstall RadarScope. I appreciate the hard work y’all are doing and the windows app is AMAZING!!! Now if only apple would allow it with CarPlay (we can dream ).

Has Additional Features Compared to RadarScope

The RadarOmega app has improved dramatically over the past six months, there are only a couple of improvements I would recommend:Tropical System Wind Probability Opacity: TSWP’s over 20% cover the locations on the screen, please make more transparent or have a sliding bar for transparency.Update: This issue has been fixed and is modifiable via Polygon Opacity under Tropical Weather OutlooksInclude Hurricane/Tropical Storm Warnings. Tropical Weather Statements (they include information on severity of impacts within a tropical system for a NWS forecast area)Update: This feature has been added under Weather Alert SettingsStorm Tracks: Storm tracks on RadarScope are slightly better as they include arrival times on screen, if a T-Storm is tornadic or producing hail, an animating indicator similar to the ones seen on TV would set the app far ahead of RadarScope.Update: This feature has been added under radar settings.CarPlay (For Warnings Only) (Would be only weather app on iOS that offers this): As CarPlay is very restrictive, it wouldn’t be able to display radar. However, if someone has RadarOmega Always Allow location, they can receive an alert when they drive into a Tornado/Severe T-Storm/Flash Flood Warning, (also could play audio of the alert in the distant future).The developer of this app is the best developer is the weather category and is always working to improve the user experience.Keep up the great work!

One of the better radar apps in the store

I was able to buy this a few years ago when it was $4.99 to download, and sort of let it sit in my phone unused for a few years. Now, it is my #1 go to app for all of weather over the past year. It doesn’t get much more better in terms of having high-resolution radar displays.There are a lot of premium features, to which I’ve tried a few of them, but the meat-and-potatoes version offers both the rain, snow, storms and thunderstorms radar data with warnings and all. It is perfectly fine for my needs, but I may try out the additional features during tornado season here soon. You can cancel them or turn them on at any time.The frames and pixel clarity can’t be beat by another app out there.

Fantastic - a must have for weather!

This app does it all from my perspective. As a retired air traffic controller I was accustomed to having live, up-to-the-second weather when I was working airplanes/talking with pilots. However, I’ve never had anything like that available to me from the comfort of my home or in my hand via my phone. The non-subscription access via this app is excellent. The paid subscription plans are purely wonderful. I love being able to look at anything - historical, current, forecasts, trends, etc. a f with the new features that are or have been recently rolled out it just keeps getting better. Keep up the great work RadarOmega!

Watch out RadarScope!

I don’t normally write app reviews, but I felt compelled to after a recent interaction with support. If you’re familiar with radarscope it is very similar; this app is really catered to Meteorologists and weather enthusiasts, not your average person. I have had RadarOmega for a while now and have watched it improve into a beyond usable app that is threatening radarscope’s spot on my app dock. Only a few months ago, the app was laggy and slow but now it runs much faster. There is a lot more customization and features that are free compared to other similar apps. I also think the subscription prices are very fair, if you buy any subscription you get free access to their Mac/Windows/Linux app. If I had one critique of the app it is that it still doesn’t feel 100% fluid and I do not like the transition when going in and out of the menu it feels slow and dated. I will say if you ever have any issue their team will be more than willing to help you. I emailed about a feature and received a response within 5 minutes! That is very impressive! Overall, this app hasn’t quite earned radarscope’s spot, but it very well could in the future.

Wonderful and Essential!

I can’t say enough positive things about this app. I have no negative notes. I live in a tornado-prone state and I can rest easier with the knowledge I can track the storms around. It’s very robust and interesting. I’m a very novice weather enthusiast and RadarOmega has taught me a bunch. I’ve even been able to navigate multiple tornado warnings on days with outbreaks. The support staff and Twitter account is also super friendly and quick to respond. You guys have given me piece of mind and I’m so grateful. You also don’t have to be a subscriber to get value. Thanks so much for what you do. I will keep this app for the rest of my life and use it when things get bad weather-wise.

Great but a little on the buggy side

So far one of the best radar app I’ve used! I’m coming over from radar scope and I couldn’t be more happy! I was referred by a friend to download Radar Omega. I instantly bought the alpha plan. And I got to say I don’t regret it at all! Radar Scope began to feel limited compared to Radar Omega. So much more is offered here including live streams from storm chasers, live webcams with current conditions (including wind speed, pressures, temperatures, dew points and much more). Another significant feature are the 3D scans from the radar. Unfortunately, the app does have some issues including lag, crashes, and other small bugs that will definitely be ironed out hopefully. Needless to say really great app. Looking forward to future updates. I’m also look forward to using this during the storm season to see what it really can do!

Amazing 3D views, double charged

This is definitely one of the top radar apps out there, and has some great advanced features. This is for more advanced users, so may be overkill if you just want a general idea when precip is coming. For those willing to learn, however, this is one of two I primarily use. I am borderline obsessed with the 3D views on various radars! I also appreciate the free access to the Mac app, but I like using this on iPad above all. That said, be aware, you will be charged twice. Once when you download the app (for recurring subscription apps, normally this is your first week/month/year of service) you get charged, but then once you open the app, you have to pay again for the subscription. (At least this is all I can assume, as Apple denied my request for refund twice, after I was charged a second time, of course with no explanation). I love the app and will continue to use it on the Alpha subscription, but be aware that you will pay double your first month if you want the advanced features.
