Optimal devices

The WeatherCall® Mobile, WeatherCall Lightning, and WeatherCall Mobile Plus services perform optimally on smart phones which can report their location, such as the iPhone and Android platforms.

Confirming if your notification services are on or off

When you are viewing the WeatherCall Mobile home page on a smart phone, you will see a black square with a green rotating radar image (if there are no current warnings for your currently reported location) or a red rotating radar image behind one or two warning icons (if there are current warnings for your currently reported location.

  • You can turn your notification services ON or OFF by tapping on the red My Settings button and check or un-check the Enable SMS Notification or Enable Phone Notification boxes.
  • If you uncheck both boxes, and update your settings, a red line of text appears on the home screen stating Notification Services are OFF.

Compatibility tests

To check if your smart phone is compatible with WeatherCall Mobile, open a web browser on your smart phone, go to http://www.weathercall.net/mobileapptest, and then follow the instructions on that web page.
