## Review summary

Users praise BOM Weather for being easy to use and good for Australian location coverage, with some reviews noting it handles forecasts across multiple locations and resembles familiar apps. However, recurring concerns center on data accuracy and humidity details: some reports indicate local data gaps and overall forecast inaccuracies, while humidity/dew point data is lacking or unreliable. A few users also report stability issues (crashes) and frustration with forced updates. Overall, the app appears user-friendly with broad location support, but accuracy and data depth remain key areas for improvement.
