  • Well done app

    So far excellent. Due to health issues I very much appreciate a detailed & reliable weather report. This app does the job. I also appreciate the moderate advertising & the details on the widget. I tried several other apps & this one is a winner! Good job, guys. Thank you.

    Spoke too soon. Once I gave it rave review, the aggressive full page timed ads started. They even are timed so you cannot get rid of them until they run their course. I get it that some advertising is necessary for the free version, but then again the deception as well as the aggressive ads... well, you be the judge. I’m uninstalling. Back to the drawing board. 3stars for the excellent layout.

  • Good

    I’ve only had it for a little while yet but it gives a great amount of detail. Definitely an improvement over the stock weather app on the iPhone, although it doesn’t have the option of having all the different ‘current conditions’ pages for different locations. I didn’t use that much anyway so no big loss there. There are a couple of ads that come up when you go to the radar page but they do go away and aren’t too very annoying. Good app overall.

  • Superb

    Best weather app by far. I was looking for an extended forecast weather app and thought I would give this one a try. I’m impressed by it’s features and clean look which is intuitively navigational. Everything I wanted and more. I’m a happy camper! I previously only used the “my radar” app and love the radar but it didn’t offer the extended forecast. I’m going to recommend this to my weather junkie friends.

  • Add that kill the UX

    I downloaded this free app based on the stellar reviews. Yes it has lots of bells and whistle‘s which looks great but the free version is broken. I open it up and it tries to display an ad right off the bat... fullscreen and then freezes. The only way to get rid of it is to close the app. And then try again and sometimes you get lucky and actually get into the app. They have focused so much on delivering advertising that it obstructs access to the weather part of the app and have broken the user experience (UX.)
    I understand the need to provide advertising for free apps to survive but not at the expense of obstructing access to the app 50%+ of the time.

  • Best weather app!

    Really the best weather app I’ve found, used m a n y of them trust me! Lots of information at your finger tips and the best part is the map loads instantly and the interactive map repeat is lengthy giving you enough info on the weather pattern! The location service allows you to choose a local weather station rather than finding one for you. Can’t say enough, just download and you won’t be sorry 👍

  • Really great app.

    Great app. Like the way it is laid out. Easy to use and understand. Two observations. The temperature seems to be off. In testing out other apps your wind chill reading is the temp that matches up with other apps. Your main temp reading is always high. On your storm tracks it would be neat if when you click on one it would also list the towns or cities in it’s projected path. Again, it’s a great app.

  • Great app. Better customer support.

    I bought this app for its ability to show storm tracks on the radar. So I was disappointed when I downloaded it and they didn’t work. Thinking it was a setting I couldn’t find I contacted customer support by email. They immediately responded and told me that their source for the tracking info had been discontinued and they were searching for a new one and it would be deployed in a future update. A couple of weeks later I received another email from them informing me the new source had been found and the update would be rolling out soon. Sure enough a day later it was ready to update. They’re attention to my problem made me feel like I was their only customer and they were personally taking care of me. 5 stars well earned!

  • Accurate. Easy reading. Comprehensive. Unique.

    Few days ago, when all the others on my wife's iPad said 26° WeatherMate said 42° which was spot on with the TV weather dude. Best presentation of Weather Underground data. Why? You can actually pick *exactly* which weather station you want to use. (Check the Weather Underground site for a map of the ones nearest you.) I keep coming back to WeatherMate. Easy to read. Plenty of detail, even for weather geeks. Tried 20+ other weather apps: no kidding. Some pretty good ones, some trash. I’m a weather geek. I put it on mi esposa’s iPad, she prefers it too. Let's face it: other weather apps are simply inferior. WeatherMate sources from the nearest station. (In our case, a mere half mile away.) Makes a huge difference in our hilly desert southwest. The software is nicely done: smooth scrolling, comprehensive detail (even travel planner with historic norms). Access to long text and suspected hourlies is easy. Selection among a plethora of display elements is easy. The widget is great. Support is generous and courteous. 😊 WeatherMate, rain or shine. 🌤

  • DLROLLH

    I’m rather fussy about my weather apps since I live around 100 miles from any place that has a TV station to get a report from. I could depend on the local radio guess but I think it’s taken from a crystal ball or something like that. This app has everything I want or could possibly ask for in information about my local weather, will give me reports from anywhere in the world, and is more accurate than any other app I’ve found. You can’t ask for more than that. This is the app for me and you!!

  • First weather app I just might pay for!

    I’ve had this app for a couple of weeks now. Replaced ‘storm’ that has been sold so many times I get tired of the changes. At a glance, I can see the most pertinent and current information. With the swipe of a finger I can see the rest. Very user-friendly and easy to read. I love the ease of this program and all the information it provides without having to search for it. So far it works seamlessly with my phone and Apple Watch. Accuracy seems spot on. Ads are a pain as always - but I like this app so much I’m considering actually buying it. I would love to have a temperature alert - that I can control (so I know when to cover plants or blanket horses). I live in Florida we have very erratic weather! The only thing missing is the push notifications if bad weather is coming but I haven’t double checked my settings...
