Named by Time.com's @Techland as one of the best weather apps for your iPhone and Apple Watch. Severe weather alerts for your exact location. Storm Shield gives you storm-based alerts for tornado, hurricane, flood, thunderstorm, winter storms and other life-threatening weather events via voice and push notification. Storm-based alerts help reduce false alarms by alerting you to severe weather based on your exact location within a county. County-based alerts can result in false alarms, warning you when your location in the county is not within the threatened area. What people are saying: • Storm Shield "alerted our family of the Broken Arrow, OK tornado, faster than the TV and tornado sirens." - Robyn • "I was in Oklahoma City during the tornado... we were right in its path. Your app literally was a life saver." - dcalk12 Benefits: • Get voice alerts just like a NOAA weather radio via push notification anywhere in the United States. • With Apple Watch, get a tap on your wrist when alerts are issued for your locations. • Add Storm Shield's widget to your Today screen to get quick access to active alerts for the first location in your app. • Touch Storm Shield's app icon on your 3D-Touch enabled iPhone for widget access. • Hi-Def radar map is your home screen so you can quickly see what's going on at your locations. • Fully supports Dark Mode in iOS 13. • Long-tap on the map to get current conditions, hourly and daily forecasts. • Save additional locations to ensure family members stay safe.

This app is flexible and easy to use and reliable on communication alerts.
Dear people that made this app I wanted to say thanks for making this app because when I had guest over and when I was around my guest it sent me a tornado watch before the sirens gone off so thanks for keeping me and my family of the wolf pack aka in the house safe 😃
The app is very well done except for one big issue. The selected warning layers do not retain their selection choice. If you close the app then your selected warning layers return to the default settings. I contacted support a few weeks ago and they are aware of the problem. So every time you open the app you may need to re-select your preferred weather warnings.
I’m blown away by the accuracy and the features this app has! I absolutely love it!!
I’m so happy for you guys to be able to warn people of storms
Very nice replacement for the defunct Weather Radio app that I used to use. Problem: I get double alerts for a remote pinned location. [I can understand getting two alerts if I have a pin on my house AND I’m home (which would be my current location), but I shouldn’t get two alerts if a pinned location is out-of-state.) Thank you.
Lately so many times I get weather alerts for my current location but when I check to see what the alert is there’s nothing there.
StormSheild is the best fit for my weather needs. It tells me what I need to know and can be configured to avoid distracting me.
I have had this App for a decade now on my iPhone. Once again, though my settings are correct, I’m not receiving warnings! Yes, I have it set to “Precise Location.” I’d be happy to update to 5 stars if you could tell me what’s wrong!
Having this app could save your life I mean you never know. And it is really nice because it says like if you are in the car it will say take shelter. This could really help if you are in the car and there is really a bad tornado 🌪️ coming your way… so this is why it’s good to have this app. For safety ⛑️
