Ratings and reviews

I really like this app. It seems to be free from glitches, it has a clean user experience with an intuitive layout, and has a particularly innovative and clever 5x4 widget. Also like the interactive map with easy to access future radar and lightning information. Only additional requests would be info around air quality/allergens and more detail (wind gusts, cloud cover) on the hourly forecast.

I agree with other reviews - it was working fine until recently. It won't access my location, but luckily I added my home address to my locations so I am always get it. The past two days, the app told me there was an update, but when I try to get the update it doesn't do anything! It says it was updated on August 23,but I don't know if that's the most recent update or not.

I've given this app enough 2nd chances. Totally inaccurate most of the time. Says its raining when the sun is shining, and vice versa. Radar shows rain in "x" amount of hours, doesn't rain. Don't depend on it. In fact, don't bother downloading it. Giving this, & the AccuWeather app the boot. Both are trash.
