Love it - new update made lines in earth and slightly distorted globe
Love it on the iPad Pro 12.9. This new update created a line on the globe going from north to south. You can also see the blocky blending especially in the southern and northern end of the globe. Maybe it’s just this big beautiful iPad screen that I noticed this, but it would be really nice if the club was more fluid in reel looking.
I really wish your icon would go back to the original, or at least change the color tones. It looks like a strange blue.
You guys have done it right. Great appShow lessBad Ace!!!
My Favorite App for the Last Ten Years
I look at one feature or another numerous times a day. It shows what’s happening to the Earth from so many different perspectives, from simple weather forecasts to storms, temperature views, fires, air quality, and much more. I feel like it is the most reliable real time record of climate change that we have. A huge thank you to the developer. By the way, I have never felt moved to write an app review before, but this earns my heartfelt endorsement.Show lessBethmi451
Works as expected
Just like it looks in the pictures. The clouds shown on the Earth are the actual clouds in the sky! You can even brighten the clouds that are in darkness to be able to see them better.
Only thing it’s missing is the moon among the stars in the sky (though it will show you the phase of the moon and so on) and no Antarctica weather information (except the clouds, which it shows).Show lessRarrikins
Beautiful App
I thoroughly enjoy using this app to keep up with weather events. The realtime view of the globe is stunning and the color overlays are really cool, too.
As a resident of Interior Alaska, I wish the developers would add some script to automatically adjust the hourly forecasts to keep up with sunrise and sunset. The result of not having this is that our hourly forecasts all summer long in this, the Land of the Midnight Sun, display nothing but he moon icon - all day long. I contact them, and they fix it (thanks for the update, folks), but given that the app displays sunrise and sunset, it should be possible to integrate that data into the daily app icon displayed. We do have short days in the middle of winter, but it’s never the case in my area that the moon is the only orb potentially visible between sunrise & sunset. Is it safe to assume that the same issue arises in all subarctic regions, north and south, for users following the weather in those locations? This can be resolved programmatically.Show lessiaminak

This should be fixed in today's update. Please let us know if you see it fixed and thanks for letting us know about the issue!Feels like temp inaccurate
I have used this app since before you also reported the weather. Unfortunately, lately the temp is way off. The “feels like” temp in Tiverton, RI has been 49 degrees F all morning. Accuweather for my location says 64 F. Accurate temp has been a problem for weeks. Not sure whether this is a function of “feels like” vs. current temp, or whether the local Accuweather feed is bad. I also would like to be able to choose whether the app displays current or “feels like” temp.
It’s a beautiful app, and when the weather is working, my go-to.Show lessEMBA5
Very Nearly PERFECT...
I love this app. It gives so much information about the world: it gives worldwide weather conditions & temperatures, and mean temperatures; developing storms can be pinpointed (you can also keep track of storms as they grow into hurricanes or typhoons, or sputter out); population centers are indicated by concentrated areas of light (but only on the dark half); the app can easily be set to show specific cities that you program in; cities are marked by a small, round “light,” (though they’re unnamed!?), and more.
There are features that I would love to see added, though. I’d love to have the option to use the globe for geography AND weather, plus a view showing BOTH together. For that, they would have to add a view with nations, cities, & land and water features marked. It’s the same with other views; high/low, and median high & low temps, for example, would be even better if a view showing the exact places - the names of nations, cities, mountain ranges and rivers, etc. were added.
Maybe these things are available on PAID versions of this app, but I haven’t looked yet; besides, I think they should appear on the free one. I’m going to go check out the paid version[s]! But even as it is, for free... I love this app!Show lessLaudes
Very useful
I use this app several times a day. First thing in the morning to check the temperature and see what the day will be like. I like to see what the week ahead will bring so I will know if I might need to change plans. I also use it to check the weather in cities along my route when traveling. The app is always accurate and agrees with the local TV weather guys.
I have noticed one little peculiarity lately - the low for the day is sometimes not listed as the low for any of the times for that day.Show lessTrvlnldyl
Most beautiful alarm
This app gives the most beautiful interface of any alarm I’ve ever had. Awakening to your own choice of music or different alarm sounds is great. Getting a quick fix on the weather before bed and upon awakening is a great bonus. I love also having an up to date picture of the world’s cloud cover and storms.
Sometimes the advanced features of the alarm cease to work when there is an iOS update, but customer service actually responds when you give feedback through the app, and they have fixed bugs quickly.
I only lower the rating to 4 stars because I wish there was a “sleep” feature - to allow me to fall asleep to 30-60 minutes of soothing music or nature sounds, then awaken to an alarm of choice. Maybe in a future update?Show lessDemBones61
Temperatures are not accurate for current location
I was very excited to use an app with live clouds and tropical storm alerts, however the temperature for my location is off by nearly 20 degrees. I can't use an app that forecast inaccurate temps. Oddly the temperature for places like chandler Arizona and Den Haag holland were correct. Hmph! Guess I paid 2.99 for other accurate information. I have been cross referencing the information with weather underground, which I have been using for years and LOVE, as well as the weather channel app.
Purchasing this app is your choice but I would like my $$ back.
I purchased this app because I wanted the sunrise and sunset times for each day. It was a bonus when I read it's other features.
This review is not properly structured but a rather ramble from my thoughts in between my work break. Thanks for reading.Show lessSamantha&Matt

Sorry about the forecast issues for your location. With our latest update we've made conditions and forecasts more accurate - they should match what you see at wunderground.com for your location. Please let us know if they're more accurate for your location. You can email me at contact@radiantlabs.io for any feedback. Thanks!Almost a Good Nightstand Clock
The app is beautiful and works well, however it's not a very good clock app. The time can't get big enough that I can read it from across the room. Also, when the globe is bright the numerals are washed out and unreadable. They need to have a drop shadow or background for the numerals.
It would also be great if they had calendar integration and allowed the world time to be viewed at the same time as the weather.Show lessJFoDizzle
