Hi Product Hunt, I'm Kane, and I build Kinwarn on my own.

It started with a gap I didn't expect: your phone's Emergency Alerts only go off where your phone is. When a tornado warning covers your parents' house two states away, your phone stays quiet. And many warnings never trigger a phone alert at all: from 2022 to 2025, about 98 in 100 severe thunderstorm warnings and over 2 in 3 flash flood warnings came without one.

Kinwarn checks every address you add against the warning's storm polygon from the National Weather Service, so you hear about the homes that matter, with the minutes until the storm arrives.

A lot of older parents don't want another app. So with Pro, Kinwarn phones them during the most dangerous warnings and tells you whether they picked up. If they don't, it calls you.

Kinwarn now also works in Canada outside Québec, with warnings from Environment and Climate Change Canada. And it speaks Spanish: the app, notifications and emails follow your iPhone's language, and each phone number can get its calls in Spanish.

Free covers 2 places. I'd love your feedback, especially if you look after family in storm country.
