User Reviews

Users generally praise MeteoSwiss for accurate, informative weather data and a feature-rich interface with multi-location planning. The app is commonly described as having a clear UI and no ads. However, it is hampered by frequent crashes and instability, buggy location management and widgets, a divisive redesign, occasional forecast inaccuracy, and limited control over warnings. Stability and UX improvements are needed to fully leverage the strong data offerings.

Pros

Very accurate and informative weather data across Switzerland.
Rich set of weather features and clear information presentation.
Generally good UI/UX and design.
Free to use with no ads.
Useful for comparing multiple locations at a glance.

Cons

Frequent crashes and stability issues, especially after updates.
Location management and widget controls are buggy and inconsistent (cannot remove/reorder locations reliably).
Criticism of the latest UI redesign; usability and information density reduced compared to the old version.
Some users report forecast inaccuracies, particularly for short-term forecasts (1–2 hours).
Cannot mute/disable weather warnings for certain locations.

Recent reviews

The best weather app. period. Well designed, lots of data, and thoughtful visualisations. Every national weather service should be copying this.

s hon wieder. Seit einigen Tagen zeigt das Widget nur noch "Daten werden geladen". Trotz Neuinstallation keine Änderung. Warum muss alles immer verschlechtert werden?
