User Reviews

Overall, reviewers praise Forecast Now for accurate NOAA/NWS data, a clean UI, and dependable forecasts, with some liking an ad-free paid option and responsive support. However, many report intrusive ads, UI regressions (smaller text, missing dates/details), stability issues (slow loads or blank forecast content), radar/map outages, and trouble locating multiple locations. The sentiment is mixed: high data quality and usability in a clutter-free design are often overshadowed by ad pressure and periodic performance problems.

Pros

Accurate, trusted weather information directly from NOAA/NWS.
Clean, uncluttered UI with easy navigation between forecast types and locations.
Ad-free option via paid plan to remove ads.
Dependable forecasts and useful data for planning.
Responsive developer support and quick issue resolution.

Cons

Intrusive ads, including audio ads and long countdowns, creating a frustrating experience.
UI/readability regressions after updates (smaller text, missing dates and forecast details).
Stability and performance issues (slow loading or app not displaying forecast text, only images).
Radar/map reliability issues and outages.
Difficulties with locating multiple locations or quick navigation between locations.

Recent reviews

Used to LOVE this app as it was super reliable, but now that I can’t skip these ads they force you to sit through if you don’t want to pay $12 a year for ad free weather info, it’s horrible. I’ll stick to going straight to NWS for my information. Weather information should NOT be monetized, you all pay taxes that go towards incentivizing this information… why pay more?! Paying for this information to avoid sitting through ads is just revolting to me as a meteorologist. Go to weather.gov to obtain your weather information that is readily available (ad free).

Used to be a good app. Now they added advertisements that are broken. So I have to restart the app, watch another ad, and hope it works. No longer forecast now, it is forecast in five minutes, maybe.
