Ratings and reviews

A very good app and definitely on what I would consider the right track, the widget is a bit wonky as it doesn't show the forecast very well and when resized it freaks out a bit. I understand why he has a subscription for this app but I would be more inclined to pay a one time fee. i personally would pay $20 usd for an app like this to be able to use it indefinitely.

Best weather app I've found so far, will be my go-to from now on. The health option is very helpful as a person with chronic conditions that are surprisingly greatly impacted by pressure; this app has a very easy-to-understand graph for air pressure. It also has UV index and air pollution which are also important to know about when you deal with health issues! Love this app so far! I would really appreciate the addition of widgets!! It would be a very nice feature to have!!

As an enthusiast of off-road riding on the mountains of Colorado and Utah, I find this app to be extremely useful. it takes the place of several hardware devices that I use, and by the way, it's a really cool weather app too. Really liking the daylight and windspeed tracking data.
