It's accurate enough for me even tho it's not exact, but it constantly freezes or crashes, and within 2 mins of being on the app, too. That's enough time for me to see what I want, but I may still delete this app soon because based on other reviews, and since my phone is old software now. I don't think this app will be updated again to fix this freezing and crashing issue me and others may be having.

What is with all of the ads?! I used to rely on this app but now it's a nightmare to use. I get logged out daily for no reason. The app has so many ads that take over and I can't switch to see hourly/daily without an ad popping up that I can't get rid of. I can't check the weather once without a problem due to ads popping up so it looks like I'll be finding a new weather app to use. Thanks for wasting our time

Monthly payment for no ads? Seriously? Look, I am happy to pay a 1 time fee for no ads to support the app, but paying a subscription just to get rid of the ads is a no go. I loved the app, but the ads have gotten annoying, please change this. I don't want to change apps because of being forced to either deal with ads or pay a subscription. I never stay with apps that go down that path.
