  • Takes way too long fetching data

    Good concept but waiting 20 to 30 seconds to fetch data far too long on something that should take milliseconds since it’s only text data being pulled in and parsed. I’m on fiber optic network using iPad Pro, 2nd edition.

    One station never pulled in, was stuck at fetching data.
  • Great simple access to forecast discussions

    My only wish is that on the iPad you could have the selections and discussion all in one screen without the overlapping. And perhaps allow the default view to be set (eg single page)
  • Easy to use

    Simple interface but easy to find locations to gather weather information as a weather junkie this app makes it easy for me to fly around the country and gain a sense of current weather analysis to build my own local forecast if you enjoy understanding the whys of why the weather works as it does this app is a must!

  • Good, but weird text parsing

    Deep Weather is improving but is still lacking in polish. For example, in the list of forecast discussion sections, each list item is very tall. The preview text in them is of limited benefit, so I’d rather see just the headings and keep the list to a single page. (I love the list icons, though!)

    The thing that bugs me the most, though, is how the text itself is parsed: every sentence shows up as a new paragraph. This makes it so much harder to follow and completely fragments the flow of what the forecaster was saying. Please fix it so it shows the paragraphs as written!

    Overall, a good app with plenty of opportunities to become even better!

    I appreciate the feedback! Check out this latest update (Version 3.3.1), where I've made some improvements to the formatting that I think you'll like. :)
  • Information not found often

    It amazes me that with the abundance of weather apps out there, very few have this information, the weather service discussion, available full time. Some apps have it if an alert is issued. That is a small step but insufficient. Use this app, read the discussions, and start understanding the weather.

  • Love the app for AFDs, now with favorites option.

    Update! Wow, that was fast! So easy now to toggle between my favorite NWS stations with the heart icon on the bottom toolbar. Thanks for the quick turnaround on that request. // My previous review: One of my go to first in the morning to read local NWS Area forecast discussion's. I have only three requests for hopefully future updates... The option to store favorite offices, push notifications when a new discussion is available for one of your favorites and maybe and option for the previous discussion from that office. Love the app. Clean and quick to load data on my iPhone and iPad.

    Thanks for the feedback StormVisuals! I'm actually already working on a "favorite stations" feature, which should be rolled out soon. Thanks again!
  • Great Upgrade!

    Thank you for this fantastic upgrade! Being able to access favorite weather data is important for keeping up to date!
