Users praise Drops for accurate rain alerts and metric-unit support, but repeatedly complain about privacy-invasive data collection and regional inaccuracies. Some reviews report the app stuck on a privacy screen and questions about support quality. The consensus is that the product is reliable in some locales with a smooth interface, but privacy issues and regional accuracy limitations are the most frequently mentioned concerns.

- Inconsistent accuracy across regions (regional/local forecasts unreliable)
