Ratings and reviews

Juste to ask. Untill the last server service, the app worked well. Since then it is asking for the acceptance of cookies, and i accept them, and the cookie page keeps reappearing, hindering the possibility of using the map of the app. It takes half the page, and visibly the app works. What can i do? I did uninstall it and reinstall, with no change to the problem

Easy to use and navigate, multiple options and info layers, interface menus in English and Hellenic/Greek, fast and simple. Overall, best weather app.

Lately it stopped storing my preferences, like language and last visited location. Otherwise a great app with very accurate data.
