iRain UCI

However, the Google maps interface has not been working for quite some time… Hope there will be an update soon

Previously was a GREAT app - but somehow I’ve lost the underlying map! Can see the colors of the rainfall (what we have had in this #ChevronDrought), but not map to see where that rain has fallen.

There’s no way of determining regional rainfall totals without a scale or any geographic layers to depict locations.

Very useful for travel planning and knowing weather conditions.

At appears that the developers of this app have stopped supporting it and there is no longer any meaningful data to be gleaned from it. It’s a shame because it was a useful app for determining past rainfall amounts at any location, and seems to be that no one else is doing anything similar

This app is wonderful for someone like me who forgets when it last rained in my region and want to forage mushrooms. This app has pointed me to search specifically in areas with recent rainfall to much success! A great tool for this purpose, also helps with deciding if I need to water the garden.

The worst app I have been seen and really inaccurate.

I don’t know why the reviews are so high. The rainfall data seems totally wrong.

Why do people post into the App Store apps that are half finished? I can’t tell for sure how much precipitation in inches has come in my area in the last couple of days enough to be able to decide whether to turn the sprinklers on this morning or not. I only get two days a week I’m allowed to turn the sprinklers on, and I don’t want to turn them on and waste money if I don’t need to. The so-called animation doesn’t do anything, and I cannot really tell what is going on with this app. I am glad that they gave us and them. Imperial units option. But that’s something that should’ve been done before they ever put it on the market in the App Store. The fact that people had to ask for that is appalling, considering we don’t live in Europe. And I still would like the whole app to work before they provide it in the App Store. It’s very important to find some app that will make it very easy to tell whether I need to turn the sprinklers on or not and that depends on inches of rain reported in the past 24 hours. I don’t understand why I am supposed to be reporting rain since I would have to stand out with my hands out in my yard all day long to know, and I have no idea whether it rains or not, except when I happened to be standing outside.

Thank for making a useful app for precipitation monitoring. Looking forward for new features.
