The default option is to search for the fastest local server. Others, like the windows version, select the previous server connection. This makes the Android version way faster to use.
Another top-notch feature is that it adds selected apps to a safe-list. When these apps go online, Hotspot Shield protects them with no intervention required. The VPN can be set to deactivate when the phone is in sleep-mode to save battery power.
It can also be set for automatic activation depending on the specified network, for example, mobile, unsecured, and secured networks. Privacy is a prime reason for using a VPN and, at first glance, the company promises to prevent data logging. There is, it seems, some logging going on, though. The company states that all data generated by online activity gets deleted from the servers once a session closes.
Data logging defeats the purpose, in a way. There is a free version, but all the interesting features are available across 1-month, 6-month, and month plans. However, this application still stands out amongst the crowd. Highly Recommended I can't say it enough, some people don't pay attention to weather.
Continue your daily routines and let Storm Shield monitor the weather for you, this app might save your life one day! Thanks so much for your kind words and for recommending Storm Shield!
We're so glad to hear the app is helping keep you aware of nasty weather with its fast severe weather alerts, and informed about what's going on with the weather in general.
I have loved this app for a little over 2 years now I believe. So much so that when our friends from California moved here to Tennessee with no experience in severe weather and were nervous about the weather, I recommended it to them to keep them up to date on watches and warnings and give them a heads up if there was a tornado warning in the middle of the night to get to the basement.
Got us all set up with locations picked, alerts turned on and everything and felt good about it, until last night when tornadoes went through the area and there was not ONE alert that popped up for any of us other than the tornado watch that came through like 3 hours after it was issued.
We never got any alert for the severe thunderstorm warning or the special weather statement that came and went. And thank the good Lord the radar still worked because I had to watch it all night and just happened to notice the red box pop up when the tornado warning was issued right over their location, and was able to call and tell them to get them and their kids downstairs in time for their area to get hit.
Thank you for your comments! We're aware that some Apple iPhone or iPad users may have received weather alerts that were delayed in recent severe weather events. We're working with our weather alert provider to investigate this and identify any potential causes.
Apple's push notification service, which Storm Shield iOS relies on for delivery of its severe weather alerts, is a "best-effort" service, meaning that Apple makes its best effort to deliver all notifications for iOS devices, but cannot guarantee delivery.
To be clear, we're not pointing the finger at Apple's push notification service we're still investigating ; rather, just trying to explain how the push notification process works. Please rest assured that we're working diligently with our weather alerting partner to ensure that everything that we can control is functioning properly, so that future weather alerts will not be delayed.
We understand how important it is that alerting works properly, so if you continue to experience missed or late alerts, please reach back out to us. While this experience you had is the exception rather than the rule, we're confident that you'll see this from our past app reviews over the years.
Thank you again for helping us strive to be even better! Updating my previous review and adding a star for great customer support! Within hours, the developers responded directly to my review, noting a temporary server glitch that prevented me from adding new locations.
Works now! I figure the other issue re: dark vs. No big deal. I may keep Storm Shield for local weather monitoring and still stick with my old standby Storm Radar for a global view and peppier radar. Intellicast was the best weather app hands-down, but since its demise, no one has been able to match it.
