    It has stopped working on MacBooks. Deleting and re adding it does help. Tech support is not answering emails.
  • Data Rich!

    Have been using this for a few years now as a paid subscriber. So much information, great UI and very easy to use - just click the icon in the top menu!
  • Features okay but cost too high for them.

    Some nice features but way too expensive for what it offers.
  • Replaced native weather app

    Really like this app, cool design choices and customization options make it a great alternative to the native weather app. Im having a reoccurring glitch where the app quits itself upon changes the preference settings. Nothing relaunching it cant fix but is slightly annoying (i am using a macbook 2017 era intel running 13.7.4 so that could be the case). Would also like for it to be easier adding custom icons and wallpaper. What it comes with is a large selection but needing to email our uploads first to get it approved seems a bit much but nonetheless i like the app and pay for the subscription
  • Used to be great but now buggy & inaccurate

    Forecast Bar auto-renewed weeks ago and the AppStore billed me for it, it became buggy, listing inaccurate dates, times & temperatures, & also loading a big annoying popup telling me to renew the app. I thought they would fix this by now but they haven’t so I found another weather app. $8 down the drain.
  • Great App, but now has a problem

    I have used Forecast Bar for several years and have been very happy with it. I like the customization of it, the detailed information, and its interface. However, in the past few weeks, it fails to display properly. I have several (6) virtual desktops. In the past, regardless of which virtual desktop was on, I could click on the menu bar icon and it would pop up. But now (since the release of macOS 15.2?), it displays ONLY on Desktop #1. When on any other virtual desktop, the menu bar icon dims but no display.
  • Both Mac OS and iOS Versions Outstanding

    I rarely write reviews BUT both versions of this app are outstanding in presentation and details. The standard weather app I’ve used up to now would rarely get the predicted or status of snow and rain right and living in Montana, this is a big deal. Forecast Bar gets it right every time!
  • A little buggy lately.

    For the last few days, I’ve had to restart my computer to get the app to open. I have used it for a few years now and it is well designed and has functioned very well.
  • Only so-so

    looked at the app at 8PM and noted that the forecast was very different than the evenings weather. the foreast was last updated at 830AM and had since changed significantly. Pretty much worthless
  • Was perfect, now broken

    This app was great, the low profile way it integrates with the menu bar is amazing. However, it now seems to have a problem on MacOS with CPU threads running away and the app becoming unresponsive. This has been happening consistently across multiple machines, and is only fixable by killing the process in Activity Monitor and restarting the app, which wouldnt be a huge deal if this wasnt necessary like once a day. I've emailed the devs for almost a year about this with no response.
