User Reviews

Users praise Pinpoint Weather for its strong radar capabilities and customizable overlays, offered for free and historically reliable. However, widespread full-screen ads and hard-to-close interruptions severely degrade the experience. Updates have introduced feature instabilities, especially with lightning data and radar, and several reviews question the app’s forecast accuracy. Overall, many feel the app has declined due to ads and reliability issues, prompting consideration of alternatives.

Pros

Powerful radar capabilities with helpful overlays (precipitation, clouds, temperature) and storm tracking, including lightning data.
Customizable map overlays and controls for quick access to specific weather data (e.g., storm track and lightning overlays).
Free app offering a robust set of weather features without needing a paid plan.
Historically reliable and long-used go-to weather app with strong radar features prior to recent updates.

Cons

Intrusive, full-screen ads and video ads that disrupt usage and appear frequently.
Ads are hard to dismiss or close (often you have to wait or restart) and can block navigation or viewing of forecasts.
Recent updates have introduced stability issues, such as lightning icons not showing time/type and radar glitches.
Forecast/radar accuracy concerns; some reviews say it isn’t as accurate as advertised and doesn’t always match other sources.
Perceived degradation of the app over time, with some users shifting to alternative weather apps.

Recent reviews

Agree with the guy from Denver. Not only do the pop up ads ruin the app, they also come with loud volume, which is really annoying if you’re just trying to check the forecast without drawing attention to yourself!

When tapping the 3 dots to the right of a city in the place list, the menu appears for a fraction of a second, then disappears. From the looks of other reviews, it looks like one of the older versions should be put back up while this version gets fixed and TESTED.
