Tropical Hurricane Tracker
Tropical Hurricane Tracker
Tropical Hurricane Tracker provides the most up-to-date information about hurricanes, tropical storms, and disturbances in the Atlantic, Central Pacific, and Eastern Pacific basins.
Most apps are overly complicated and cluttered with information. Tropical Hurricane Tracker offers the unique ability to easily navigate through multiple data points to find the information you need to keep track of these potentially devastating storms.
At JPL Tech, we are committed to learning and improving. We welcome feedback that will help us continue to develop this app to best suit the needs of our users. Our goal is to create an app that is easy for everyone to access, especially those in hurricane-prone areas. If there is a feature you would like to see, please let us know by contacting us within the app.
Features Include:
• Hurricane Tracking Maps by Region (Central Pacific, Eastern North Pacific, Atlantic)
• NOAA Forecasts
• Interactive Global Map
• Push Notifications
• Ensemble Models
• Historic Seasonal Maps
• Historic Storm Tracks
• Saffir-Simpson Scale
• Safety & Preparedness Information

Why Data Collection and Sharing Matters
If not managed properly private data can expose enterprises, customers, employees and partners to breach and compliance violations.
Network Connections Observations
DETECTEDNetwork analysis has detected communication with external servers and data transfer patterns.
Observed During Analysis
Connected Hostname:
- amazon.com
- google.com
Server Locations:
- Mountain View, California, US
- New York City, New York, US
- See Your App’s Risk Profile
Why Network Connections Matter
Uncontrolled communication with external servers by an employee-used app could expose sensitive business data to unauthorized third parties. This unauthorized access can lead to data breaches, regulatory non-compliance, and damage to your business's reputation and financial standing.
Privacy Declarations Observations
NOT DETECTEDThis test did not detect a discrepancy, indicating all required declarations are disclosed.
- See Your App’s Risk Profile
Why Privacy Declarations Matter
Declarations matter because they provide transparency on how apps collect and use sensitive data. iOS requires Privacy Manifest declarations, while Android requires Data Safety disclosures and manifest permissions.
AI Observations
NONE DETECTEDNone detected. Further analysis recommended.

Why AI Matters
AI features can process sensitive data in unexpected ways, potentially exposing proprietary information or creating liability.
