User Reviews

YoWindow Weather offers a visually rich, immersive forecast experience with customizable backgrounds and ambient sounds, plus cross-device usability. However, it suffers from lack of ongoing updates, incomplete feature parity with Android, and gaps in widgets and per-city localization, with some reported weather inconsistencies. The concept is loved by fans, but concerns about long-term support and cross-platform feature parity remain.
Pros
  • Visually rich, unique interface that feels creative and fun to use.
  • Dynamic weather visuals with live landscapes and minute-by-minute precipitation.
  • High degree of customization, including using personal backgrounds/photos.
  • Ambient sound effects and calming background audio add immersion.
  • Works across Apple devices and can be used as a TV screensaver.
Cons
  • Stalled development and aging features; limited updates and Android parity lag (missing Live Landscapes, grandparents, etc.).
  • No widget support and lack of per-city localization or precise city weather.
  • Occasional weather inaccuracies or inconsistencies between phone and TV versions.

Love it! My only wish is that this version was updated like the Android Version. Missing Live Landscape backgrounds for example. Love the grandparents in th Android version. Why are they not updated together? Android has more this this version.

Whether you need a Weather app or not. You’ll WANT this one. I love how I set the background to be my cabin and trees. So beautiful and how you can see the rain or snow fall to the minute it predicts it. It is my absolute favorite weather app! I’ve shown all my friends, and they have it now too.

I got frustrated with Apple weather because the low temp had nothing to do with “how cold it will be tonight,” and usually “how cold we predicted it would be at 12:01 this morning.” Not helpful! Instead, I got this delightful interactive app which reminds me that weather is nature, and nature is outdoors! The bonus is that if I am wearing headphones, there are little sound effects. I just wish the audio loops were smoother.
