App does not work No aspects of the app works. Unable to load map data, no current or forecast data, unable to find location. Poor representative of a Jamaican public institution.

User Reviews
Users find the app promising — accurate forecasts and useful weather details with respectable visuals — but many report repeated failures: error messages loading forecast or map data, poor location search/switching, and general unreliability and UI polish issues. Several users have uninstalled until stability improves.
Pros
- Accurate/consistent forecasts (several users call it reliable)
- Provides comprehensive weather details when working (useful information)
- Visually decent/pleasant design and a promising early release
Cons
- Frequent errors — 'Error loading forecast data' or map data; app often won’t open
- Location handling is unreliable: poor search results and problems switching locations
- Unreliable uptime/performance and timeout issues; feels like a beta with UI needing improvement
Recent reviews
