User reviews

Multiple users report this app forcibly reorganizes their phone's home screen and app icons without consent, making it difficult or impossible to uninstall through normal methods. It runs intrusive ads and pop-ups, negatively impacts device usability, and can cause distress especially among elderly or non-technical users. While some find the weather data reasonably accurate, overall it is criticized heavily for its invasive control and poor user experience.

Cons

App forcibly rearranges and reorganizes all app icons and home screens without user consent.
Cannot be uninstalled easily; uninstall option is hidden or disabled.
Causes confusion and distress, particularly for less tech-savvy users or elderly due to major phone interface changes.
Frequently displays intrusive ads and pop-ups even when not in use.
Limited functionality in terms of location options and weather details, less accurate compared to other weather apps.

if I could give this app a lower rating, I would. Accidently installed while panic downloading Watch Duty. It reorganized my apps and made it so I couldn't even check my local weather because the city I am in is not listed. Trying to uninstall but didn't have the option on the local app, it was only here in the play app. Might have to factory reset. Thanks. I hate it.

It's not nearly as accurate as my weather info that's already on my phone. The highs and lows change throughout the day. Plus it only shows you a few hours at a time. My original weather app is very accurate. The highs and lows stay consistent throughout the day. Plus I'm able to see on mine, many hours ahead. This is the worst weather app I've ever used
