About this app

WeatherAlarm helps you follow the weather at home and at the other places that matter to you. Add a parent’s house, a child’s college town, or anywhere you want to keep an eye on. Each saved place has its own alerts, conditions, forecast, and weather context. All for free, with no ads, no subscriptions, no tracking, 100% free, like apps used to be.

When the National Weather Service issues a warning, WeatherAlarm checks the places you monitor and sends a location-specific alert. Open it to see what happened, which place is affected, and the latest available storm context.

WHAT’S NEW IN VERSION 3

Apple Watch: See your saved places and their warning status in the paired Watch app. Add a complication for a quick glance from your watch face. Set up and manage places on iPhone.…

Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.

In the app 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, not a finding.

Version 3.1 · 2026-10-08
Severe weather alerts for the people you love. COMING UP: THE WEEK AHEAD, FOR EVERYONE YOU WATCH A new card at the top of the Alerts tab tells the week ahead across all your places in one glance. Expand it for the Storm Prediction Center's Day 1 to 8 severe storm outlooks, heavy rain and flooding, snow and ice amounts, winter storm impacts, heat, air quality and the longer range. Each outlook has its own map and a detail screen that reads like the forecasters' own. WHAT THE FORECASTERS ARE THINKING Open a location's Additional Details to read the local National Weather Service forecast discussion, in the forecasters' own words.

Method and limits

What this report can and cannot show

What a missing label means

Not yet tested. No analysis has been published for this app, so there is no method to describe for it yet. A missing label is not a clean bill of health: it means nothing has been read, not that nothing is wrong.

Limits of this report

  • A package scan is static. It identifies code and text in one Android build. It does not measure a live ad session, test a deletion request, or count the steps needed to cancel.
  • Reviews keep their sample. A review-only charge shows distinct reviewers, the share and the sample size, and is published only once it clears that label’s published threshold. Calibration labels are machine-drafted and not yet confirmed by a person.
  • Not assessed is a state. It is never a zero and never a pass.
  • A missing label is not a clean bill of health. It means the evidence did not support one, not that the app is problem-free.
Not yet human-reviewed. A human review gives an app hands-on, recorded measurements. None has been run for this app. Hands-on inspections are not yet open.
