Ratings and reviews

App crashes probably 50% of the time when initially trying to load. it basically opens and then just closes right away. if I open it back up it works fine. It's really not that big of a deal. Otherwise the app works great. The people saying it's hard to navigate the app must have other issues because it's pretty straight forward if you use common sense and give yourself 10 or 15 minutes to actually figure out where everything is.

Was a 5 star until the update of January 2024. Loads very slow. Saved locations are put in a random order, not the order I added them in. I used this app to check on weather in cities I'm traveling through on regular road trips. Also only the high temperature are shown. If the forecast calls for rain it'd be nice to know if it's going to get to freezing. Really sorry I updated this app. I switched to Weather Bug. Works much better!

I hate the new updates! The dark background is awful and I started getting alerts for places that I'm not even near at the moment. When I went in to find settings, I discovered that you can no longer choose which alerts you want, and that getting all alerts for all the places you've searched is on by default. I don't need to know about lightning near Grand Rapids when I'm in Lansing! I'm off to find a weather app that can be customized--like this one used to be.
