Very frustrating when I used to be able to use this app with little to no disruption from ads. ### 3/5 — Popup ad with every click *2026-06-29, version 2.0.1* Information provided is solid but I received a popup ad every time I clicked on something — some without a clear way to close. I deleted the app and check the website instead, since I know how to block popup ads there. • 5 stars for information. • 1 star for functionality. • Average is 3 stars. ### 4/5 — Exceptional App Broken Widget *2026-06-02, version 2.0.1* It’s highly accurate very helpful as someone with extreme allergies. However the widget doesn’t work anymore and I need it for my healthcare which is very delicate and complex. ### 4/5 — Omg *2026-05-10, version 2.0.1* I have extreme allergies that affect my balance. So knowing exactly what to expect can save me unnecessary misery ### 4/5 — Mold *2026-05-10, version 2.0.1* I wish the app would forecast mold. ### 1/5 — Got a warning of EIGHT viruses *2026-04-27, version 2.0.1* Then the app tried to open safari which blocked it for… viruses. ### 1/5 — Apparently hacked *2026-04-23, version 2.0.1* Trying to access advanced features pops up a bogus Apple security alert. Frustrating. Guys, go review your code. ### 1/5 — Ads have taken over *2026-04-19, version 2.0.1* I really like this app, but the ads are high jacking my phone. Had to finally delete as I could never get to the allergy forecast. A couple of ads are ok, but this is ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-04-11, version 2.0.1* Popup ads take up the whole screen and you can’t X out of them, I am deleting the app ### 1/5 — Ads are RIDICULOUS!! *2026-03-21, version 2.0.1* Way too many ads! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads pop up and wont go away *2026-08-16, version 2.0.2* The ads come up and never leave. App it u usable. I am removing it from my phone. ### 1/5 — Not working properly *2026-08-10, version 2.0.2* I am no longer receiving pollen information throughout your application, and especially in my account information, where an error message is displayed on that menu page (zero info about me). Plus the help menu on the app doesn't work either. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2026-08-06, version 2.0.2* Can’t set a location. Says it can’t locate the server. Newest version doesn’t load past the intro screen. ### 1/5 — Scam Ad *2026-05-15, version 2.0.1* Used Allergy Plus for a few days now, but I just got a “message” in the app that my iPhone had 8 viruses and that I should click the button to receive instructions on how to remove them before system degradation led to me losing my data (fear mongering!). I googled it and learned that it is almost certainly a scam and was sent as an ad via their ad network or something like that. Do NOT click that button if you get that message! Ask Google AI or some other AI for instructions. I’ve deleted the app because I can do without headaches like that. ### 1/5 — Displayed ads that are malware. *2026-05-12, version 2.0.1* The app itself was fine, but it displayed malware ads, which means they aren’t controlling advertisers and malware ads are getting thru. Hence the poor rating. If you want a free allergy app, I’d look else where; maybe the paid version is ok, haven’t tried that. ### 1/5 — App is Serving scam adds *2026-05-10, version 2.0.1* I encountered a very concerning issue in the app. After clicking “View All,” I was shown a fake security warning claiming my iPhone had been hacked and instructing me to install a cleanup app from the App Store. This looks like a scam advertisement or malicious popup and seriously hurts trust in the app. Please review your ad providers and fix this immediately. ### 1/5 — Scam advertising *2026-05-08, version 2.0.1* Scam-like advertising is now appearing when I open this app. I no longer trust the app. ### 1/5 — Bogus Malware *2026-05-07, version 2.0.1* I installed the app along with two other apps. I thought it worked great and showed me valuable information. However, after a few days it would give me pop ups every time I opened it saying I had malware on my phone. Then it would open a page in the App Store for a Malware Cleaner app. Very sketchy. Wouldn’t recommend downloading this ### 1/5 — Ads even if you pay for it *2026-05-07, version 2.0.1* I expect to not get ads if I pay for an app. ### 1/5 — Great app, but broken *2026-05-06, version 2.0.1* App seems to have become compromised by bogus ads claiming your phone got hacked. Attempted to submit a report to the developer, but their submission form is broken. Placing a review here since there wasn’t much else to do to warn other users or the app developer. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great Way To Gauge A Day *2026-08-17, version 2.0.2* I’ve used this app for several years to enable me to plan my days outside enjoying nature without the effects of an allergic response to the day. ### 5/5 — Allergy Plus *2026-05-21, version 2.0.1* Great App for Sneezers ### 5/5 — Very helpful *2026-05-13, version 2.0.1* Allergy Plus is very useful in warning of conditions that may merit taking allergy meds. I use it daily in high pollen seasons. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-04-28, version 2.0.1* Use it every day. A great benefit. ### 5/5 — This is why it’s good *2026-04-13, version 2.0.1* Very good bc I am allergic to pollen so yeah ### 5/5 — Real time pollen counts *2026-04-07, version 2.0.1* I was feeling poorly and checked the pollen count. It had shot up and I was able to counter it, thanks! ### 5/5 — Not optimized for Mac but it works *2026-03-27, version 2.0.1* Not optimized for Mac but it works ### 5/5 — More accurate than others I’ve used *2026-03-27, version 2.0.1* I can see why I’m feeling the pollen clearly! Other apps not nearly as good! ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-03-25, version 2.0.1* Great app ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-03-03, version 2.0.1* I always know when my allergies will act up thanks to this app. Very helpful and efficient --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
