Independent evidence report
Evidence and review signals
This is where the page changes from an app-store listing into an evidence report: findings, important reviews, pricing and a dated history.
What we measured
Each line is a measurement published as a measurement, never a verdict.
Each line is a measurement, published as a measurement. Where we have not looked, the line says so rather than reading as a zero.

Themes reported by reviewers
No theme reported
Counted from the reviews we have read for this app. "No theme reported" means no theme reached our reporting threshold — it is not a finding that nothing is wrong with this app, and we do not say it is.
Five-star share of ratings
65–79% five-star
Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.
In the package we scanned
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence about the app, not a finding about it.

Highlighted reviews
Representative public review excerpts shown as user reports, not Appworthy audit evidence.
“Increasingly intrusive ads — The app itself is alright, the ads are getting out of hand. I had a full screen ad come up while watching the radar today. Time to look for an alternative I guess.”
“Can’t exit from ads! — Great app but recently you added advertising videos that is annoying and I can’t exit out on it cause the little x is too far up and to the left I can’t get out of ad ( ad for a game) ( iPhone 12)”
