Terrible app. Hail sizes are wrong. The app never opens and is always crashed. I have a galaxy top of the line droid cellphone and it never works even if I'm connected to my home's wifi. Total waste of money

Does not work on Android at all. I have a flagship android phone (Galaxy S10+) so it isn't due to lack of performance. You might as well open Chrome and set to Desktop mode and use interactive hail maps website. Wish there was more convenience in my day to day canvassing but there isn't. Have even written the developer's to no avail. I NEED this service but am forced to a second rate way to get it.

Great purchasable map app to track prior and recent hail, tornado and other damaging weather events. Tools to pull home owner info, including email, phone#, home value and other pertanant information for roof salesmen. Tool to produce, print and share Hail-Wind Reports from National Weather Service, spotter data and radar reports for specified area acceptable and used by insurance adjusters to determine claim approvals

It appears after reading other reviews I'm having the same problem everyone else is. I saw one review that said it works better on Apple rather than android. Is this why I can't sign up??? There's no way to sign up! Fix this or help me solve this problem, and if you do I'll change my 1-star to 4 or 5.
