Max Defender 8 Weather App App Reviews

I have an older iPhone 8 Plus and the app and radar has worked flawless. I haven’t had a single crash and it’s very accurate. I used the Weather Channels app for years but it isn’t accurate, I could be in the middle of a thunderstorm and the radar would show clear skies and not a cloud within miles. This app as of July 2021 is dead on with clouds and rain radar, I love it and almost didn’t download it from the bad reviews, maybe people have old phones or bad internet.

Helps me keep track of the storms as I sit on the beach in Pinellas county. I LOVE this app and Newschannel 8

Since the last update I have not been able to open the app. I had to delete it and I’m going to try it one more time.

It’s mediocre at best, compared to what’s already native on your phone. The radar is a still-frame snapshot, not live. The temps and weather predictions are nothing that you don’t already have on your Android or iPhone home apps. Worst of all this thing is riddled with advertising and annoying pop-ups.

I was a bit surprised to see so many negative reviews at first. If you use the app yourself you will see why. The app just doesn’t seem to be built well. Slow, a lot of functions are buggy. There’s also a lot of ads.
