Description

Recent Android changes are keeping widgets from updating. You must turn off power saving features in Settings to keep this and other widgets from not working.

Keep up to date with the latest Severe Weather Outlooks from the Storm Prediction Center. See the latest Mesoscale Discussions, Watches, Day 1, 2, 3, 4 - 8 Day Outlooks and Storm Reports at a glance on this Home Screen Widget.
Press on any image to go the SPC webpage for more details.

Settings include options to update every 15 minutes, 30 minutes, every hour, twice a day or once a day. Hit the Refresh button on the widget at anytime to see an instant update of the most current information. Play a sound at every update (veteran chasers will recognize this sound!) or uncheck sounds.

Instructions for install:
1) Go to your apps button (On KitKat and greater after long press on the homescreen you'll see widgets at the bottom of the screen.)
2) Select the Widgets tab. Long press on the SPC Widget (light blue background).
3) Drag to the area you want it on your homescreen.
4) See the config screen and choose your settings for update frequency and sounds.
5) Save and then see it on the screen.
6) Long press again to resize.
7) Long press and move to trash can to delete.
8) Repeat 1) - 6) to add again.

To reconfigure:
To get back to the config screen you have to delete your widget from the screen by dragging it to the trashcan then install a new one. Then you will see the config screen again and can set a new update time or disable the sound on the new one.

On June 21, 2018 the widget stopped updating it's images. Version 1.7 now fixes this problem and shows the images again.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Awesome. Just one question. How do I go back to configuration? Id like to disable the sounds. Cant find it.
1 ★Always disappears from my screen or stops working
5 ★I'm in to storm chasing & this is the perfect app where I don't have to go to several different pages to find info that I need
1 ★App is not opening.
4 ★Great app
5 ★The great thing about APEXICE apps is they do exactly what you need in a simple way. This app will deliver the NOAA Storm Prediction Center's overview products such as Daily Outlooks, Mesoscale Discussions and Current Weather Watches all in a simple widget you can glance at without opening 11 different webpages. You can have a small widget or re-size it to fill the entire screen. This app will also refresh at times you determine and play a sound when there is an updated product. It is best suited for people who want to know where the "hot spots" for weather are nationwide at a glance such as Storm Chasers and Meteorologists.
5 ★For those who want to check out SPC pages this makes it simple and fast....no pulling up browsers and going here there and everywhere! A+++
5 ★Simple and effective, just what it should be!
2 ★As title, but the notifications are spurious + you can't see what it claims is updated. As such is less use than spc homepage or twitter IMO.
5 ★Does exactly what it claims, and I didn't have to click on eleventy-billion links to see all the SPC pages.
1 ★Oh sorry app will not let you put it on your home screen
5 ★Great and very useful app!
