The map itself could use a bit of an overhaul, too.

The app has had an overhaul, namely:

It's not clear what the "subtleties" referred to above are, but if it relates to difficulties interpreting the map marker colours (and distinguishing erroneous precip anomalies), then the current version should have reduced them considerably. That said, it is not a bad idea to have a brief in-app help/how-to page.
