I use several;
Weatherbug, accuweather but if I'm tracking rain, I always pull up RadarScope.

It's a paid for app. Friend of mine is a FedEx pilot and he told me that is what they use. It cost $10, when I got it probably 12-13yrs ago.

Worth every penny as far as I'm concerned.

I use weatherbug for temperature, but for tracking rain, I use Radar Omega. I think it was $7.99 for the basic app (I don't need any of the advanced features).

I still miss Dark Sky. to Apple!

Weatherbug will never, ever, be installed on any device I own. I remember how many tickets had to be opened at many corps because of shady shite their browser add ons and whatnot did. It was essentially mal-ware when mal-ware didn't have a definition yet.

Since Apple bought Dark Sky, it's pretty good. My other is Storm Radar. I'm trying out MyRadar, as it can show you precipitation on CarPlay, but haven't used it as much as I thought I would.

It was damn near impossible to remove it all from your system. I have never used it again.

And I was tech support, and had to remove Weatherbug, "free font" plugins for Outlook, and all that garbage day, after day, after day.

Fox4 WAPP has everything I want in a clean package and clearly bounds weather warnings unlike most. It’s not really local to DFW. Works same everywhere. No intrusive ads, reminders, or upsells.

Another free radar app some of you may be interested in is WeatherWise. It is pretty good for a free app.

RadarScope is the best app of any kind on my phone.

RadarOmega

That's what a lot of storm trackers/tornado chasers use.

I love showing it off to my radar challenged friends.
