  • I have BE weather, WB elite, TWC, Elecont, a number of apps I've deleted, and various advanced radar apps. So far this is easily the best all around weather app for me. The radar is quick. The widgets are fantastic. The accuracy is excellent. I wish the lightning plugin that existed for the my-cast classic version was available, and I prefer the "text" portion of the classic app to this version, but the newer version is much more streamlined and includes widgets. The widgets give you a nice view of the upcoming days, at a glance, as well as your choice of radar. Both are 2x2 format, so they aren't a sleek 4x1 panel like some, but in my opinion it's for the best. By using the radar widget and the extended outlook, side by side, you have a very easy to see combination of what's happening now, and what's coming over the next few days. I haven't tested the alerts yet, as I use another app for those exclusively, but it appears to all be standard NWS/NOAA info, which is a good thing. In order to get current lightning strike locations, or "push" alerts, you have to subscribe ($10 a year is not a lot of money, but it's one more recurring subscription I'd rather not have). -- Very pleased
  • After a year of using the ad-supported Lite version for a year, I finally ponied out the dough for the ad-free version on my HTC mytouch 4G ! I'm glad I did, too, as simply freeing up the extra display space makes the info easier to read!! Plus, this paid version offers an enhanced radar, slightly slicker icons, etc that make this my favorite weather app!! Of course nothing is perfect, but this app's intuitive, easily navigable screens can be customized to display info scourging to your priorities!! Bravo!
  • This is the third weather app I have tried over the span of two years and I have to say, it's close to perfect. Its a little costly if you want the push alerts, which was a must for me as an avid outdoorsman. I struggled at first to discover that not only do you have to enable the push alerts at a global level, but also at the individual location level. (why don't they default to 'on' per location?) Once I got that figured out, I can't see myself ever using another weather app. Kudos!
  • The ability to subscribe to instant push alerts is an excellent feature. Most other apps I've looked at that can warn you of dangerous weather only check at preset intervals. For something like tornadoes you need to know instantly, not in 15 minutes. My-Cast alerts are instant. There is a recurring fee for this additional service but that's normal for this kind of alert and the price is competitive.
  • I have had my-cast on every phone I have ever had... even before the term "android" ever existed. My-cast has always come through and never has issues. Wish the observation map was on the new version but no biggie. DROID bionic.
  • This app has every feature one would need for a really fun, casual storm chase. The lightning map is great and shows the precise location of all strikes on a minute-by-minute basis for the past hour when animated/looped.
  • Is there anything this app can't do? True that radar products are slightly limited, but this is an app that can't be beat. 5 stars hands down!
  • Great Application!!! As a landscaper this app saves so much money especially in the area of pesticide application...
  • I like that can get live radar updates, Saves my fishing trips all the time. I can decide when and where to go.
  • My cast is the best weather app I've ever had keep up the great work! Works great on my galaxy s us cellular.
