Recent reviews

I've had this app for years. As of a couple months ago, I noticed the temperature wildly fluctuates at times and does not agree with other local weather, saying it's raining with nothing on your own radar, and now I can't get the temp to show in the status bar. reinstalled at least 5 times. I'm guessing the app is no longer monitored and maybe it's just AI now? 🤷

This weather app is very easy to use. The forecasts are reliable. The radar maps are clear, and the hourly updates help me plan my day. The app loads quickly. Highly recommended for anyone who wants dependable weather information!
