Very useful for my community garden plots
May 26, 2018 Once you sign up online (it’s free!) and create your farm locations, they will appear on the app and give you very useful data in the last 24 hours worth of rain at each location. I haven’t checked for accuracy, but this is very useful for me to know if I need to drive out to water my beds. Additionally, it sends you an email report (if you want it to) with today’s projected rain, max temperature, rain expected for the next 7 days, and a few other rain data points. So useful! I’m very grateful for this tool.more -
Accurate
Mar 14, 2020 This app is very accurate! It tells how much rain fell in a 24 hour period for whatever location your in...my farm is basically 4 square miles and I have rain gauges at each end of it and more and after a rain where my gauges are at it always jives with what each gauge is showing.. the gauges are usually never exactly the same but the pocket rain gauge agrees every time with my actual gauges.. so I know it’s accurate...and a keeper...very handy and cool app!!more -
Throw away the plastic rain gauge
Oct 17, 2017 Even during major rain events over 3" has been within a few 1/100ths of neighbors pro weather station and let's me look at what happened wherever I go. -
Usually pretty accurate
May 9, 2020 I like this app because it’s usually pretty accurate, but I guess last night’s wind interfered with the official gauge (wherever that is). Our bird bath was half to two-thirds full and our physical rain gauge in the backyard registered about 1.17” of rain.more -
Good for home use
Aug 31, 2019 I would like to see it work with Siri & Alexa

Super slow updating
Aug 8, 2020 It’s been an hour and a half since our thunderstorms and it says we’ve had no rain. Once it updates, though, it’s pretty accurate. I’m checking the Weather Channel’s app for a more real-time update. Although that could be better, it’s better than this.more -
Worthless!
Aug 7, 2018 We received over 4 inches of rain and this device showed only 1/4” of rain. It shows wrong location, and I can not log into my account. I will delete this app because it does not work at all! -
Please customize total rainfall duration not 24 hours
Jul 11, 2020 Only gives 24 hour rain fall which doesn’t mean anything. Please add custom duration such as total rainfall in a week or any reasonable time period. Not a rocket science, you just need to add! -
Send just ok but missing things
Aug 18, 2019 Seems good for what it does but I just wish it would have rain data for the pst 7-14 days not just the pst 24 hours. -
Always wrong
Aug 17, 2020 Never seems to show anywhere near the correct amount of rain. Currently says 0.0” when its been raining for hours.

Horribly Inaccurate
Aug 27, 2017 I don't know where their data comes from but I can get over an inch of rain and it will only tell me I received less than a 1/4 inch
