Way too difficult
I'm not stupid but I could not get this thing to work. Just says "fail" every time I try to link the app to the WiFi. Fix It!!Photo plumber
Fix it!
Loved this app and my weather station......at first. Now it seems that instead of fixing a problem for us that have the original they just simply want us to buy a new weather station and use the new app. Not cool or good service in my mind. The weather station still works great just will no longer hook to my WiFi. Really wish they would fix this!!Show lessttsouthern
No software quality control
Unable to even get past the screen asking me to enter my wifi password because it wont even show the name of my network that is currently connected. The spelling mistakes in this app tell a tale of cheap chinese-made trash with no quality control whatsoever. I guess I’m sending back the whole weather station, I can’t use it at all.Show lessDragonsmoke6
Gotta use an Android Device
So after no luck changing the SSID (like every other review, it kept thinking my SSID was “Wi-Fi”) in the app, I tried to setup the station using my work ANDROID phone and sure enough it worked.
So morale of the story, use an ANDROID device to set up your weather station.JSPARKS!
JUNK APP
The fact that this product/app has issues with dual radio signals should tell you something. Even after disabling the 5Ghz network this crappy app would not recognize my network and would only display “WiFi” as the SSID. They don’t even give you the option to CHANGE the SSID in the app to allow the unit to login to the correct network. Tried multiple times with same results. Would be nice if they fixed this as the weather station itself is AMAZING...just a crappy implementation on the User Interface side of this app.Show lessmilesfam
Don’t Bother with this App
This app automatically assumes that your router SSID is Wi-Fi. Everybody knows that every single router has a different ID. Since you cannot get past that point… The whole rest of the app is worthless!Goldenneko
Quit the changes
This operated will with my weather station until the update. Now you can’t retrieve the rain history except on a graph. Horrible.

Great Weather Stations and app
I now have two of the Ambient Weather stations, and they are great. When I got my second station set up it took me only about 5 minutes to connect to the app. As I discovered on the first station, it’s important to turn off the 5ghz radio on you router while your connecting the station to WiFi. Once it’s setup you can turn the 5ghz radio back on. The instructions do tell you this, but somehow I missed it on the first setup. Second time was a piece of cake!Show lessGrandpaArizona
Worthless App is a understatement !!!
Will not connect even when all the settings are correct finally had to go to my computer put the same settings in connected right up. All one has to do is look at all the bad reviews.RF 2000
Should be compatible with any mainstream router.
Only compatible with slow routers. In a high speed world, this is unacceptable.Genesis5020
