User Reviews

Brella is praised for its beautiful, colorful UI and playful, personalized weather notes that make daily forecasting feel fun and useful for outfit planning. Users especially like the customization and mood-boosting aspects. However, several recurring issues reduce satisfaction: unreliable or absent notifications, crashes or bugs (including Feels Like and startup problems), and inconsistent weather data (wrong temps, odd wear suggestions). Location accuracy problems and requests for more clothing options and clearer layering/categories are also common. Overall, strong design and personality are offset by stability and data accuracy concerns.
Pros
  • Beautiful UI/design with colorful forecast
  • Fun, personalized daily notes and witty humor
  • Helpful for deciding what to wear and daily outfit planning
  • High customization options (UI tweaks, layers)
  • Positive mood-boosting feature and enjoyable forecast personalization
Cons
  • Notifications don't work reliably or fail to appear
  • App crashes or bugs (startup crashes, Feels Like issue)
  • Weather data accuracy can be inconsistent (temperatures and wear recommendations)
  • Location tracking can be inaccurate (wrong location)
  • Limited clothing options and layering categories; desire for more items and clearer categorization

Now, don’t get me wrong: this app is amazing. I don’t even recall an app like this that tells you what to wear for the day, especially not in such a witty way as this. I’ve used to for what to wear, of course, but I’ve also used to to determine which kind of armor I should wear (Survivalcraft style) as well as any extras that might be crucial in a more extreme situation, such as a diving suit, or a dust mask, or anything for life-or-death situations, such as a gas mask or fire suit. That being said, though, the app only earns a good rating because it could utilize a whole lot more than just the basics. For example, it could warn me about severe weather and abstain from telling you what to wear during the emergency. Another feature it could have is more options for clothing items, such as for wind and UV index, as well as more options for specific layers of clothing such as outer upper body, or even better, the user can create their own layers each with their own recommendation conditions. There’s so much potential with such an old app. Overall, nice app to have, but there should be an option for those dedicated meteorologists and weather fanatics to have more specific clothing recommendations for more specific weather conditions. Plus, it once has a crash with the Feels Like setting, which normally I’d say that they probably didn’t catch that during testing, but given how it could’ve bricked my app for good, and how easily it should’ve been noticed, that’s another reason why it only earns 3 stars.
