Probably depends on how you use it. I’ve been using RadarScope since 2010 or so as a chaser and it’s always worked very well for what I need. Radar Omega just seems cluttered and clunky when I need to get information quickly mid-chase. But I can see the attraction of Radar Omega if you’re using it in a statice environment without the multitasking that comes in the field. At the end of the day, it’s pretty much all the same information coming from NWS or AllisonHouse, I believe, so it really comes down to personal preference of how it’s displayed.

r/weather on Reddit: RadarScope or Radar Omega?

April 25, 2023 -

I’m currently subscribed to RadarScope Pro Tier 1 and enjoying it, but am I missing anything by not having RadarOmega? Is one better than the other?

I have both as well. Radar Scope is faster and I prefer the UI but Radar Omrga has a longer loop cycle option and just more options at the base level. Both good IMO

Radarscope or RadarOmega | SouthernWX

March 17, 2021 - I have both, I like RadarScope but the recent addition of new features to their tier 2 subscription only is ticking me off a bit. I’ve been using radaromega a bit more lately, the UI isn’t as good but I love the metar access it has and the higher degree of customization as well.

January 29, 2024 -

I have radarscope on my laptop , and I love it. However, I’m thinking about getting it on my phone, and maybe I should get radar omega instead. Does anybody think that radar omega is better than radarscope? I feel like it has been hyped up by people on the internet with payed partnerships. Thank you.

RadarScope is, and has always been geared toward professionals and amateurs in the weather field, with a ton of Level 2 and 3 radar data. The quality is also top notch. You won’t have the common weird radar artifacts vs a traditional weather radar app. Hands down the only radar app I’ll use (besides GR3 Analyst on my desktop).

I have both. RadarScope is by far a better experience.

You have access to more info, overlays, etc in radaromega. But that also means it’s bloated beyond compare. I have both and use radarscope 95% of the time because radarscope loads in about 1s. Radaromega takes nearly 10s (at least on my 4 years old iphone se). I also happen to prefer the aesthetics of radarscopes UI, but that’s subjective.

r/weather on Reddit: Which is better, radar scope or radar omega?

January 11, 2022 - I've been using RadarScope for years and it's always been great. It's a tried and true staple radar app. Radar Omega has apparently also been around for a while, but it really seems to be the new kid on the block. Honestly, it seems to be the first real contender to offer something as powerful as RadarScope.

I’ve been an avid RadarScope user for a while now, but I’ve also seen some new enhancements in the last couple months to RadarOmega that make it seem like a fairly sophisticated app at this point when it comes to the different types of data you can extract from storms

For those that use/have used both, thoughts on which one your prefer?

Supposedly, the main allure of Radarscope is that it is very simple to use and produces very high-quality imagery/media in a very easy way. Very appealing to the general public and professionals, as well as everyone in between. I've not used RadarOmega, but I've heard of it being compared to Radarscope. From what I hear, it sounds like it's more intended to be a chaser tool, with more overlays and features that are geared towards mostly professionals, not necessarily the general public. All in all, pick the tool for what you need it for. If you're a chaser and want a ton of tools and data and know how to interpret them, go with RadarOmega. But Radarscope likely fills the needs for most weather enthusiasts.

App Store

apps.apple.com › us › app › radaromega › id1439881811

RadarOmega App - App Store

With RadarScope’s base cost, you don’t get SPC products, special weather statements, METARs, or 30 frames of radar data. With RO, you get all that plus a road map that gets more detailed the more you zoom in, making this app preferential for chasers as we can now chase with only one app open. What really sets RadarOmega apart, however, isn’t the radar data.

I was just wondering, which app is better omega or scope in August 2024. I had omega on my last phone a while ago and loved it. I am looking to not spend money on them beside the app purchase. I noticed that omega has a 3.8 star on the App Store and scope has a 4.2, so can anyone help with this decision. I will be using it on my phone.

Hey all - sorry if this has been discussed to death in the past, but I wanted some more recent opinions since the App Store reviews seems to have shifted for both apps as of more recently.

I’m interested in purchasing one of these apps, but not so interested as to buy up into one of their subscription plans.

What plan offers the best bang for the entry level price?

UPDATE:

I ended up purchasing radaromega base app. Thanks all for the input/discussion on this! Really appreciate you all sharing your thoughts and opinions :)

Radarscope is far cleaner and easier to use. That being said, RadarOmega has a lot more features. It's personal opinion. I like Radarscope more personally.

Radar Omega is by far better.

September 20, 2023 - I go back and forth between the two. I do like having the ability to use data layers in RadarOmega on top of the radar data (METARS, surface fronts, storm reports, etc.). RadarScope I use for active chasing since it updates your location for Spotter Network.
