TornadoSpy with AccuSpy™ technology gives you the power to report and view official and user spotted tornadoes instantly.

This is a frequent occurrence since user reports are submitted and viewable immediately.
Sightings are filtered through state-of-the art AccuSpy™ technology to prevent false alerts and only send you the most accurate sightings.

Latest reviews of TornadoSpyLite app for iPhone and iPad
It does what it says, it shows areas with Tornado warnings and watches around the world if you want to see whats happening all over. If you see a Tornado you can also input your siting which shows up as a different tornado color. Before using this app it always asks if you want to upgrade. Small inconvenience for a free app.
Why doesnt this work for Canada
So maybe Im not smart enough. Or maybe this didnt load right. But the lite version on my phone, well I cant seem to do anything but go to the "check for" and "report sighting" pages!! No other maps, settings, past sightings, etc. I got this version to test it out. So far I WILL NOT be upgrading. And I SHOULD NOT have to contact them to figure things out. Ive NEVER HAD TO DO THAT w/ any other app. Sorry guys. Ps-Apple, you need to make it so you DONT HAVE TO GIVE A STAR AT ALL!!!!!! I would not have given this one even half a star!!
It does what it says, search for tornadoes, report tornadoes, and even has photos if the spotter took one. Did the upgrade and got more features.
i wont even open for me!! i click on it and it crashes!! it seems cool though!!
