The data in this app is pretty good, though users should be aware that as this data is provided by a grassroots network, it does not cover all areas. I watched lightning strike a mountain in east Idaho and had it on the map before the thunder got here (and minutes before RadarScope). As far as the app itself goes, it is certainly functional, but could use some work. Thus far I have not been notified for a lightning strike within my set range, and when you zoom in and out the map struggles to load older lightning strikes. It would be nice to be able to center on my location, or to be able to set the alert to always be at my location. It would also be cool if this app used the same map as is available on their website, instead of using Apple Maps. All in all, definitely worth it, but if you want dependable functionality probably just use the website. I look forward to seeing updates that improve this app.

This App is incredible with its ability to advise exactly where lightening strikes are happening, i.e. actual locations on a customizable map, the frequency of strikes, the magnitude & even the ages of strikes. So many customizable settings with great visuals & audible alerts. Taught us so much about the Lightening-Thunder phenomenon. Blitzortung is not only an educational fun tool, but one which can early warn of potential dangers from strikes, telling us, “hey it’s time to get inside & take shelter”. We’ve used it for 2 years now & count on this App as our Thunderstorm forewarning. If you’re a boater, golfer or just like exploring the great outdoors, it’s indispensable. The visual maps & the ability to customize notifications is incredibly helpful. We just love this App.
