User Reviews

Yr.no is praised for its sleek UI and strong multi-hour forecasts with features like live webcams, but many reviews cite accuracy and reliability issues—especially with widgets, location updates, and Apple Watch integration.
Pros
  • Excellent UI/UX and standout home screen widget.
  • Granular, multi-hour forecasts with visuals, rainfall potential, and live webcams.
  • Free, ad-free experience with a unique interface.
  • Some users consider it among the most accurate weather apps.
Cons
  • Forecasts and temperatures are often inaccurate or off by several degrees; precipitation predictions can be misleading.
  • Widget reliability issues: wrong or stale temperatures, requires opening the app to refresh, and cannot easily move or update the widget.
  • Location usage problems: app won't load or won't use current location; stays at the first set location when traveling.
  • Apple Watch integration issues and occasional reliability problems after updates (missing configuration, watch app not functioning).

Really great app. I usually use the Apple Weather app, but I found it not sufficient to give an accurate forecast of the weather in Oslo. So I downloaded YR and it’s been great to give me a more accurate forecast of daily weather. The UI/UX is fantastic, especially with the functionality to drag left to see upcoming hours/days. Great work!
