  • Love it! How do I pay for it?

    I love this app! Being able to see the week’s weather forecast at a glance is amazing! The way it’s visualized just works for me.

    I’ve only had it for a few days, but I’m already sold… but I can’t figure out how to make that in-app purchase? Give me a button to click, and I’ll pay that annual subscription!

  • Nice implementation

    I like the way this app looks, almost hand drawn in places. Some improvements for someone who doesn’t always wear reading glasses is larger text sizes for the data above the scroll. Also the wind direction indicator could be larger and clearer. The text bubbles in the scroll occasionally overlap making them unreadable. Still it’s nice and to the point.

  • Simple wonderful and deeply thoughtful

    I think this might be weather data, perfectly visualized. The attention to detail is outstanding. I can’t think a single thing to complain about*.

    Well done developer!

    * I lied. There is one small thing. Very small! Tiny even. Ridiculous to even mention even. The “i” button on the right feels unbalanced visually by the update timer on the left. The “i” also doesn’t feel quite ios-like in style either.

    That's really nice to hear! The "i" button has now been replaced with an app settings button and you can toggle the legend labels by tapping them.
  • Great for visual people

    I love the way this app is laid out, the interface is simple and straightforward. My only critique would be able to have a military time option. Otherwise fantastic and I appreciate the ad free experience without random tracking stuff.

    Edit: Developer will be implementing 24 hour time on the next update. Thank you for reading the feedback and taking the time to action this request!

  • Great app, could be even better

    Love that this app gives hour-by-hour data for your current location straight from NOAA in an easy-to-read graph for temp, cloud cover, chance of rain, amount of rain, and UV index. I’ve found it to be immensely helpful—this quickly became one of my most-used weather apps. My only complaint is that there doesn’t seem to be a way to search for other locations beyond finding them on the map and there doesn’t seem to be a way to store a list of locations you look at frequently for easy access. You can drop a pin on the map and save it for future use, but you still have to scroll across the map to find your pin. Hopefully those features will be added in the future!

    Good news! Weather Strip can now search and list locations by name — including cities, addresses, parks, lakes, and more.
  • Lovely and useful

    This is the easiest-to-use display of the weather forecast I’ve seen. My only gripe, and it’s minor, is that the underlying forecast is from the U.S. Weather Service, and there are other sources that can do better. It’d be great if I could select other sources, though that would probably require some tough licensing negotiations.

  • Amazingly Well Done

    I’ve been using another, shall we say, vegetable related weather app for years now, and while I do love it (even though it wants to kill me), I find myself using this app even more. It’s just beautifully designed, and so perfectly well laid out. I really wish it wasn’t subscription-based, but I will I know people need to make money so, the cost is not so onerous.

  • Intuitive and easy! Needs widget and watch functionality!

    First off, kudos for the privacy focus and 30 days free!
    I like this a lot! It’s easy to use and read and loaded with great info!
    Suggestions: in an unused portion of the screen, perhaps offer space for 2-3 saved locations to easily update the weather. For instance: home, work, and current. Allow custom labels for these. Also, having a widget and watch complication would be great and would take the place of what I’m currently using for both!

  • Beautiful and…Peaceful

    I saw the write-up about this app on a Mac publication and decided to give it a shot. I am very happy that I did. The app is beautifully designed, simple to use and informative. Best of all, there is no noise (read, ads and obnoxious pop-up screens) to bother you. I will happily subscribe and contribute to the future development of Weather Strip.

  • Beat concept, bummer execution.

    This app is one I have dreamt about for many years. As a meteorological enthusiast, I tend to like some of the raw data that the National Weather Service and the NOAA provide. Are use their charts and graphs on my computer regularly. But I’ve always been frustrated at trying to use that on a mobile device.

    In fact, I wanted this app so bad I asked some friends of mine who are software coding brainiacs whether or not we could build this exact app ourselves even if only for our own personal uses.

    Needless to say, I am a fan of this concept. However, only after downloading the app have I realized that I can’t choose the data being displayed. The Dew Point data set being the most important to me.

    This could easily be down to operator error. If it comes down to that, I will instantly change my rating to 5! I’m hopeful that the functionality of being able to choose what data is displayed will be added soon if it’s not already a feature.

    I'm happy to say the latest version of the app now includes more summer metrics including dew point! Tap the "humidity" readout to see all available options. Thanks for the request!
