Disappointed

Claimed it had very detailed weather, it’s just the basics. And you have the pay $5.99 a year for the customisation. And it doesn’t include last seven days. Like if I am feeling hot, I want to know what the weather was like today to figure out whether the apartment got heated up etc…

Also the interface is ugly. Very little customisation, just lists what options you want to show. I liked that I could set humidity as a top option next to temperature. But that’s all I liked. So I wasted a heap of money o. This.

Almost Great…

…But absolutely needs lockscreen widgets. I currently have the stock apple small circular widget showing the low/high for the day, as well as the current temperature. However the current temperature is different to Snowflake, and really jarring seeing 19c on the lockscreen and 18 on the homescreen. Subscribed for a year, but not sure I’ll last that long if it’s not included in an update.

Most accurate weather app I’ve found

I live in a rural area, and the major weather apps report the weather from the closest city, which isn’t very close.

Snowflake is more hyper-local, I assume because it is based on DarkSky weather.

Works well with Apple Watch as a complication, though it helps to have a more modern iPhone than my previous XR.

crashes on startup maybe every 5th time

mostly fine, works well, seems to have a different source for weather data than Apple’s weather app. accurate enough for my needs. my problem is that about every fourth or fifth launch/relaunch, the app will lock up for ~45 seconds or so and then drop me back at the springboard like nothing happened. if i launch it again, it opens quickly and correctly.

been like this for a LONG time.

No Updates for Over a Year!

I’m a subscriber and have used this app since it’s initial release. The weather app market is very saturated. I used this weather app because I liked the simplicity of it, how I could keep my locations, etc. Anyway, this app is falling behind with no widgets, no updates, etc. I cannot recommend it anymore because it appears that the developer has stopped supporting it.

MANY other options out there that are IOS 16 friendly and allow for widgets, etc. Come on man! Update the darn app.

Works again!

Had a period of nonfunctionality but seems to be up again! Great weather app with a useful widget

Spinning wheel

wonderful app, very detailed information, but lately there is only a spinning wheel and blank screen, and the widget doesn't work either

You make great apps BUT!

Seems like all your applications in the end become dead projects, which is sad to see the only one that continue living is istat.

Sadly I have to switch back to CARROT Weather due to lack of development on this one. I tried hard to love it I just can’t.

meh!!

I will probably not subscribe again, despite the fact that it is not expensive. The app looks nice, and the charts are pretty. Problem is: everything is extremely difficult to read: better explanations on the charts would help. Each time I use this app I have no better idea what the weather is going to do.

Outdated

It's now over a year since an update. Missing many features that are now standard in iOS 16. I'm going to have to cancel and if the dev decides to update the app regularly then I'll consider subscribing again.
