Ratings and reviews

Though this has been my preferred weather app, I am disappointed that my purchase of the ad-free version seems to provide only temporary relief from ads. After a few months the ads started reappearing. I've tried choosing "go ad-free" but receive an error message. UPDATE: uninstalled and reinstalled twice. Back to ad-free. thanks!

Good for what it does, but don't expect bells and whistles from it. What this app is, is a honest reporting of the freely available information from the NWS. What it is not, is fripperies and doodads to animate things or pretend it can forcast for 45 days. I do wish, though, I could set an auto-update schedule for the notification bar weather (like every hour, or when the reporting starting updates) which is why I withheld a 🌟 and call the app good, instead of great.

This app has always worked great for me, but starting a couple of days ago, the widget defaults to Saturday, October 1, 2022. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, which seemed to work for a little bit, but then back to the same. The app itself is showing the correct dates for the next week but is showing the temperature to match the widget, which, when compared to other weather apps, is incorrect. This appears to correct itself when deactivating the notification temperature alert.
