## Review summary

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).
