User Reviews

User reviews repeatedly cite recurring issues: billing traps and immediate charges for trials, difficulty canceling, and refund woes; paywalls and persistent ads limit free use; radar data loading and accuracy problems with limited time windows and missing updates; location-based notifications mis-targeted to other regions; and outdated or generic forecasts. These recurring problems overshadow any positives and heavily impact overall usability and trust.

Pros

Cons

Billing and trial issues: immediate charges for a 'free' 3-day trial, difficulty canceling, and refunds denied
Paywall/ads gating most content: many features are inaccessible without subscribing and reviews mention unending ads
Radar performance problems: slow loading, limited 10-minute intervals and a 40-minute window, with data sometimes missing or outdated
Location/notifications mis-targeted: alerts and data appear for places the user is not in, causing spurious notifications (e.g., California) despite using precise location
Forecasts and data may be outdated or generic: several reviews criticize outdated forecasts and generic content

It says that you can use it for free that you don’t have to have pay for the premium, etc., etc., but there’s no way to use it for free. It just says free for three days then you got to pay it automatically will start charging you so that doesn’t make any sense when the creator or whoever it is, it keeps saying to everybody’s review that you can’t use it for free meaning no charge to use the app. It’s only the premium if you use that you pay. That’s a lie cause there’s nowhere on there that says you can use it for free gives you the option of the only free it shows three days that it starts charging so I’m gonna put this out there. Nobody use it because it’s a lie. It’s all a lie.

4/27/26- just downloaded during the big storms and warnings. Was skeptical due to reviews. There’s a FAINT “X” at the top left of the screen (Apple) to get past the pay wall and use free version. Radar tracks the last 40 mins in 10 min intervals. So right now it’s 11:57p and I can only see 11:20-11:50p in radar. All forecast is below and like most generic forecasts. So far it probably will not replace my go to of Weather4You. Wanted an easy to use app, this is easy… but W4Y has way more features and is free even if browser only. Will update as I continue exploring and comparing.

I saw this when we had some bad weather coming our way. Thinking it’d be perfect to stay ahead and have an app for this kind of thing. Once I downloaded I realized you get nothing without paying. The free weather app on your phone does the same if not a little more. I’m disappointed since I had very high hopes.
