Ratings and reviews

The app was working fine, until mid October 2022 when it just stopped working. Up to that point, the only complaints were, it needed location to be on, which reduced battery life, and a particularly days data couldn't be chosen, you had to check and if a record of the data was needed, a screenshot would need to be taken before midnight. However now the app doesn't even work, it won't take data from the WU website, dispite configuration. I am now using the WU website instead. App uninstalled.

The app has mostly been superceded by the WSView Plus app, but this doesn't really tell you that. This app has access to most of the settings that are in the ecowitt device, but doesn't know about some, so you come back 10 months later and discover the device has reset its yearly rain totals in February 1 instead of January 1, and there's no way to change it from this app.

It works, once you've guessed what the app wants you to do (connect to your station's wifi), but it's a bit of a mess. One particularly annoying quirk I'm getting, is that my device list is empty. After the initial setup, there's no way to change the station settings, and for example add a server, without going through the whole setup again. I hope this can be fixed, but it doesn't seem this app is getting much attention anymore.
