It has everything from the free version, plus: • 15 additional radar products: — • Composite reflectivity — • Radial velocity — • Precipitation totals — • Echo tops — • And more! • Local storm reports • Radar filtering • Clean, ad-free interface Customer ReviewsUsed to love it (2 stars)Bring back the old version, made the mistake of upgrading-now I lost the radar returns, all that shows up is pixel noise around next rad sites and the tracking lines for cells that don't appear (5 stars) I love it! There is nothing around like it. Way to go weather Tap.com!!! Full of potential (2 stars) This app is full of potential. Sadly that's where it ends. Very slow to load on open, slow to refresh, and zooming in and out takes forever to resize properly. Radar is dim, fuzzy, blurry. I understand this is the free app, but I think storm reports should be included. Those are a very important part of storm tracking and truly understanding the severity of a cell. I shouldn't have to pay to know baseball sized hail is moving my way.
