Price: $ 2.99

* HOLIDAY APP SALE! *
To celebrate the holiday season, Storm Shield is on sale now for a limited time (December 28 through January 5) at $ 2.99, 40% off the regular price!

If you received a new iOS device for the holidays, now is the perfect time to make that new device a potentially life-saving tool. There's no better way to get severe weather alerts for your exact location and keep your family safe.

Severe weather alerts for your exact location. Storm Shield Weather Radio gives you storm-based alerts for tornado, hurricane, flood, thunderstorm, winter storm seasons and other life-threatening weather events via voice and push notification.

Storm-based or polygon alerts help reduce false alarms by alerting you to severe weather based on your exact location within a county. Most other apps and sources still use county-based alerts (meaning you'd get an alert even if your location in the county is not within the threatened area).

What people are saying:
• Storm Shield "alerted our family of the Broken Arrow, OK tornado, faster than the TV and tornado sirens." – Robyn, Broken Arrow, OK resident

• "I was in Oklahoma City during the tornado… we were right in its path. Your app literally was a life saver." – dcalk12

Additional features include:
• Get NOAA alerts no matter where you are in the United States.

• See Hurricane and Tropical Storm forecast tracks from the National Weather Service (NWC).

• See where NOAA watches and warnings are issued by switching between map overlays.

• Save five additional locations to make sure friends and family at home, work, or out of state stay safe.

• Voice alerts can wake you in the middle of the night or give you information when you can't stop to look at your phone.

• School Closings for Baltimore, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Denver, Detroit, Indianapolis, Kansas City, and Tulsa.

• Watch live video streams when available (usually during local coverage of severe weather in Scripps TV markets, listed below).

• Current Conditions, 7-Day Forecast, and Hourly Forecasts

• View weather photos and submit your own weather photos (available for Scripps television and newspaper markets).

• Share a view of your map screen to let friends and family know where severe weather is happening, especially if it affects their location.

Battery tips:
• Storm Shield uses iOS Location Services to balance location accuracy and battery life.

• Turn off Location Tracking and instead set one of your five locations to where you are most often.

• You can throttle up or down Storm Shield's Location Tracking to balance location accuracy and battery life.
