## Review summary

MeteoSwiss is praised for reliable forecasts, strong warnings, broad station coverage, and appealing visuals, making it valuable for outdoor activities and travel. Recurrent drawbacks include language localization problems, a cumbersome UI, performance issues and post-update feature regressions (watch widgets, location limits). Addressing language options, usability, and stability would align its forecasting strengths with a smoother, more consistent user experience.

### Pros

- Highly accurate and reliable forecasts with strong weather warnings.
- Broad geographic coverage with many weather stations, plus support for multiple locations and side-by-side comparisons.
- Engaging visuals including smooth animations.
- Very useful for outdoor activities and travel planning.
- Rich data access from high-level forecasts to detailed information.

### Cons

- Language localization issues: German default with limited or unclear options to switch to English, and missing Fahrenheit support.
- Cumbersome UI/UX and navigation: buried controls, lots of tapping to see daily weather, and overall clunkiness.
- Performance and stability problems: crashes after updates and slower performance on some devices.
- Feature regressions after updates: watch complications removed, widgets not working, missing first-screen temperature box, and reduced saved-location limits (e.g., 5 instead of 20).
- Mixed forecast accuracy reports: some users experience inaccuracies despite others praising accuracy.
