You can verify this by using the history feature in the app. There is also NOT a subscription fee, and the app currently has a large enough user base such that it has provided alerts up to 30 minutes before the standard NOAA sightings are issued. Also, the Missouri tornado mentioned in the comments was published (picture and all) well before the NOAA sighting.

    This app is timely and pinpoints tornado location(s). This is a very trustworthy app that a person can depend on.

    I've had this app for quite a while. Some of the information is very helpful; however, the app has always been clunky to use with views of the map too obstructed by buttons. There are much better apps for weather radar and weather radio. This app runs slow and the developers have not updated it for several iOS versions.
  • Very useful; some quirks but worth it

    I like it during tornado storms. It lets me map sightings near me exactly with the map range I care about.
  • Good but not great

    Very useful! I don't live where there are a bunch of tornados because I live in Carlsbad,NM but I like to see where there are tornados. I also travel to Nebraska so it's good to keep track of where they are.
