## Review summary

Users praise the app for a vertical 10-day forecast, quick access to current conditions, and richer daily details, plus a simple interface. However, multiple reviews point to ad-heavy experiences, inconsistent forecast accuracy, frequent app instability after updates, a cluttered navigation, and nuisance notifications as major drawbacks.

### Pros

- Vertical, easy-to-scan 10-day forecast showing the whole week at a glance.
- Current temperature and conditions are visible on opening.
- Expanded daily forecast details for each day (more information per day).
- Simple, easy-to-use interface with a clean vertical layout.

### Cons

- Ads and intrusive video ads degrade the experience.
- Forecasts are frequently inaccurate or unreliable.
- App is unstable after updates, often not opening or freezing.
- Navigation/UI is cluttered or has changed, making it harder to use.
- Push notifications are annoying or irrelevant (e.g., alerts for rain/lightning).
