The worst

This has to be the most inaccurate weather forecast app ever.

Screen/Alerts

Menu screen doesn’t fit on standard iPhone. Alert sound is incredibly alarming.

Was great, very slow load now

I used this app religiously and now it rarely even opens. The screen is black and just stays hung up before anything is presented.

Wonderful

I love the layout, it’s easy to use and it seems more accurate than others I have used

$7 a month & no family sharing

$7 a month, Apple Watch doesn’t show celcius and family sharing not supported.

The App is okay

The app cannot be blamed if the forecasts it is fed are inaccurate. I use this app to plan outings and lately the forecasts have been very poor.

Just lost me as a customer

Subject: Lost customer due to intrusive mobile-app experience
I’m writing to explain why AccuWeather has lost me as a customer. The repeated prompts, interruptions, and aggressive messaging in the mobile app felt less like customer engagement and more like harassment. They significantly interfered with simply checking the weather.
I have decided to stop using the app—and cancel my subscription, if applicable—because of this experience. Please share this feedback with your mobile product and leadership teams. An app should respect its users rather than repeatedly pressure or interrupt them.

Love the app hate the pressure and not worth it

Latest Screw Up

With the latest update, the app will no longer open the right way even after force closing it and then reopening. And not to mention that the app doesn't work based on geographic location unless you pay for it but you can't see what the weather is like where you are at or even while driving, which for truckers like myself, would be awesome to have that.

So I am deleting this app as it is NOT accurate as it says!

Not good on iPhone

I have both an Android and iPhone and on iPhone this app widget has been terrible in the past 6 months. It randomly will switch to Fahrenheit despite the app and phone settings being Canada and Celsius. Stays that way then after doing a reboot or double check my settings it goes back to Celsius. Then, again randomly, it acts like it’s just been installed and I need to open the app to start using the widget. I don’t like Apples weather widget and app but I might just start using it.

Slow, glitchy

I don’t appreciate 30+ seconds of blank screen when I open the app. I need information quickly, often to answer to my boss or to make a quick work decision and this app regularly leaves me hanging. I wonder if paying for it would help, but if it does, then that’s even more messed up.

😃 great

Awesome radar !!!

Ads on paid upgrade?

All of a sudden I am undated with ads despite the paid upgrade. Why is this happening now?

Weather

Seeing how you can’t get the Weather right why would I listen to you about El Niño?

This was Always my Go to App Now they have Changed and not for the better

I been using this App for YEARS. always Love the 45 day out look now it’s back to 30 days. It hasn’t been really accurate lately very disappointed.

Now PAY to get previously included information

I noticed I was not getting the information I received before particularly the hourly updates were cut off after three hours. I opened up my store to see that there was an update and it is now $40 Canadian a year to get what I was receiving before not sure if I will get their premium plus or not there are other apps.

Great app!

Full screen ads are intrusive or of give it 5 stars. Forecasts are accurate. 17 Pro Max.

USED to be good

They took at the features away unless you pay for it! Can’t track hurricanes how you used to , only able to see an hour into the live radar, ads ads ads! Their greed has really taken a toll

Awful

Doesn’t work as a widget on my Home Screen

Doesn’t work on a Mac anymore

This app was my goto for weather for many years and after the latest update no longer works on my MacBook Air M2
