  • Decent

    I have had this app for almost 10 years and is mediocre at best. Seems to crash a lot and in the last month places my location in Nebraska. Radar is above average for accuracy and forecast usually is pretty good. This app would be much better if the forecast section auto updated without having to switch location and it didn’t log you out.
  • Crashes often, does not always work, does not always tell you how much it rained

    Crashes often, does not always work, does not always tell you how much it rained, struggles to load information when it does work, called dtn and struggle to get someone to look at the problem, when they do it is a hassle to get it fixed, not long till another problem arises
  • Slow to update

    It is very slow to update the forecasts. It can take up to a week for it to load a current forecast. The only good part is the radar.
  • Not good

    Won’t send push notification. Not worth a crap. And judging by the ratings, you don’t care.
  • Add the drought index

    I really enjoy your app. It’s very informative especially when it comes to gardening. You offer a good amount of information. Where it comes to the gauge if you could include the drought index. I can understand that would be a tough job. People like farmers & tree farmers would understand that number. As would some of your app users like myself. I was doing some reading and I would be interested in some classes & seminars. Have a great day and I look forward to using your app even more.

  • A 5star except

    After I loaded this app it took me a few days to find all the features. Very accurate forecasts. But it says in app purchases, so I was disappointed when (after a free trial period) the app stops functioning and asks you for a $16.99 subscription to continue to use it! It would have been nice to know that up front! Too bad they don’t offer a lower price (or free) option for basic information, then add-ons for more features
  • Great weather terrible subscription process

    I have paid for the year subscription twice now and it won’t work. Can’t get ahold of anyone to help either. Seems like a bit of a scam if you ask me
  • Well thought out weather app

    Great app for weather with a very user friendly layout. Information presented in an easily digestible manner and is one of the most accurate at forecasting. I do wish it tracked lightning but everything else is spot on.
