RadReady is an information tool, not an emergency service. In an actual emergency, follow the instructions of local authorities and official broadcasts. Do not rely on this app as your only source of guidance.
Acceptance
By downloading or using RadReady you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
What RadReady is
RadReady presents publicly available preparedness guidance and public data, and models the effects of a hypothetical nuclear detonation using unclassified, published approximations. It is intended for education and preparedness planning.
No warranty on the information
The guidance, radiation readings, shelter locations, weather alerts and blast calculations in RadReady are provided "as is" and without warranty of any kind. Specifically:
- Data comes from third-party public sources that may be delayed, incomplete, offline or wrong. Radiation monitoring stations sometimes report nothing for months.
- Blast modelling uses simplified published approximations, and the fallout plume is a rough sketch that predicts no dose. Real outcomes depend on weapon design, height of burst, terrain, weather and structures, and will differ.
- Shelter listings are drawn from public datasets and are not verified. A listed building may be closed, unavailable, or unsuitable.
- Potassium iodide information reproduces published FDA and CDC guidance. It is not medical advice. Take potassium iodide only when told to by officials or a healthcare provider, and consult a doctor or pharmacist about your circumstances.
- Readings from a connected radiation detector come from that instrument and the app's conversion of them, and are indicative only. RadReady is not a medical device.
Do not make life-safety decisions on the basis of this app alone.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, the developer is not liable for any injury, loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, RadReady or the information it presents.
Subscriptions
RadReady Pro unlocks additional live map layers and planning tools, as an auto-renewing subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. The complete survival guide — before, during and after — is free and always will be.
- Subscriptions are offered as monthly or annual auto-renewing purchases. Prices are shown on the purchase screen before you buy, in your local currency.
- Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase.
- A subscription renews automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends.
- The lifetime purchase is a single payment with no renewal. You can manage or cancel your subscription in Settings › your name › Subscriptions on your device.
- Family Sharing is not available for RadReady Pro. Refunds are handled by Apple under the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, which govern your purchase.
Acceptable use
You may not use RadReady to plan, assist or encourage harm to anyone. The blast modelling exists to help people understand risk and prepare, and for no other purpose.
Not affiliated with any agency
RadReady is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by FEMA, the US EPA, the National Weather Service, the CDC, or any other government body. Their names appear only to attribute the source of the information shown.
