Bolted

A real-time lightning alert app that monitors nearby strikes and provides a 30-minute countdown to clear, translating live data into simple statuses like Clear, Caution, and Shelter. It targets consumers, outdoor enthusiasts, and operations teams who need to know when lightning affects specific locations such as home, school, sports fields, or job sites. The app is available for iPhone and iPad, with a Pro tier offering live activities, adjustable radii, and background monitoring. It is positioned as a simple, no-account-required awareness tool, not a substitute for official warnings.
