User reviews

Doesn't work at all. I have the latest and greatest Win 10 and PC and Chrome, but no data is ever displayed, and the new Weather Widget Chrome tab page is also a formatting mess.

It is not working at all, cannot search for a location, google spits out an error.

Loads quickly, does not require excessive permissions, the weather forecast is accurate, and the weather forecast is easy to read (glanceable). I knocked off one star because the 'footer' for the new tab page has a bunch of unneeded text (search bar, my address, 'powered by Dark Sky', 'powered by Google', etc).
