Right location, wrong weather. Here it is, summer in New York. Currently 75Β°. But regardless, the temp on this app stays at 24Β° no matter how I try & customize it. So 1 Star & uninstalling.

Disappeared from my screen. When I went to reinstall it, it stays won't work with go launcher and to update it and there's no place to update anything, neither amber weather nor go launcher. Never had issues until now. Can't even contact support. These apps nowadays are a complete joke.

Does not always show my current location, most of the time the location shown is within 50 miles. Location setting is turned on in my phone. Always have to type in current location in order to get weather updates.

I Love this app, but on my current new phone SAMSUNG GALAXY S20 ULTRA WIDEBAND (UW), the live weather scenery doesn't change from day to night or the current weather conditions. Also I would appreciate it if you would add the types of moonπŸŒ™πŸŒšπŸŒ•πŸŒ˜πŸŒ—πŸŒ–πŸŒ”πŸŒ“πŸŒ’ that it currently is, also I would appreciate if you would add an easy to view live weather conditions and movement map, because I'm not someone that understands the symbology that those meteorologists are trained to understand.Thanks CHUCK

Cannot install this app on my Galaxy 10 note nor my galaxy A51 with the updated Android and I've had the pro version for the last 4 years cus of the variety of the widgets it had but even with the VIP add on, ad block, and 2 other amber apps I just wasted 15$ so that when I hit VIP access to widgets it just keeps asking for a redeem code. I've never had this issue in the last 4 years. What exactly am I paying for? If I can't get access to the widgets I'd like a refund please

It has very cool widgets but lately a lot of them are crashing, "space & home" and "Christmas" can't seem to keep them working, what a shame, such cool moving widgets. Can you fix? I have a Galaxy note 8. Thanks!

Seems to be okay. As far as I know it's accurate. Though today the app is crashing so I had to change the widget. Trying to locate the local weather today and it's giving me options and not the weather so hoping that that adjusts itself soon. I still look good up I guess.

For me this weather app works perfect. The Temperature and wind are accurate. The hourly forecast is is accurate. The Background weather photos are nice, maybe they'll have more weather photos when it gets updated. Keep up the good work. πŸ‘

Great! Love being able to view not only my city, but where friends and family are as well. I did request to stop one aspect, it stated I would not longer receive, but it still shows up.

Wish App Descriptions were better! Most photos are the same & all the descriptive text says the same thing for every widget & weather app. Crazy! You've got to install an app to see what it does & sometimes there's no change. Why must you make it so difficult? Why does an app for a widget skin advertise that it offers hundreds of different looks? No it doesn't! It offers 1 look! Each app is 1 widget image. & when are you gonna update fonts? There's a whole list but they look the same.
