It's the only damn app that's doing it. And I made sure the pref in the App Store settings was unchecked. I don't know why this dumb developer thinks he's entitled to circumvent system settings. I'm sick of this constant behavior. And this dumb developer can go screw himself with his stupid app. ### 4/5 — Allow precipitation (Snow & Rain) to be selected in inches, as does the “Whether” app *2026-03-14* Sorry I updated 4.0.5 to 4.1.0. What did you do to the radar? It’s awful. Area of radar is too far off; seems pixelated, an way outta focus. Takes too long to load. Liked better the temperature conversion °C to °F on opening of app. °Kelvin— meh! Please ### 2/5 — Always 5 degrees off *2024-09-14* What's the purpose if there's a 5 degrees discrepancy between this app and the actual temperature? I might as well look somewhere else. ### 5/5 — Favorite weather app *2024-07-01* I’ve probably had this app since iPhone 2, or whenever the App Store became a thing. I’ve tried others, but this one is to the point but also lots of info if you want to look at it. ### 2/5 — Radar only has past history *2024-05-27* I purchased the Pro App long ago and even though they don’t offer it anymore at least I don’t have to see ads on the basic app. But the Radar view only shows the previous 6 or so hours. Nothing about Radar map showing the next 6 hours which many weather apps do. Sorry, but I already know if it rained in my area 3 hours ago; i just want a Radar forecast showing whether it’s going to be raining in 3 hours from now!! Guess I have to move on to another app; wish I could get a refund for having paid already for an upgraded app that is now just a basic app with less features than I paid for! ### 3/5 — Just ok *2024-05-02* Pretty good app. Just wish it would display a weather forecast for more than 24 hours. Difficult to plan ahead. I end up using the apps from the Weather Network and iOS a lot more. ### 3/5 — Not as good as iOS weather app *2024-02-12* Not as good since at remote locations where I work it does not get current conditions as well as iOS weather app. ### 5/5 — Atmosphere *2024-01-17* Love this weather app, lots of info, especially the weather that has occurred in previous hours ### 5/5 — Best Canadian weather app! *2023-04-19* Fantastic weather app -- ad free, any Environment Canada location, and the whole week at a glance. Would be nice to have a flip screen or something that would display the text descriptions as well! ### 5/5 — Montreal weather *2023-03-22* The most accurate app on the net. I will recommend this app to my friends! ## Frequently asked questions about Atmosphérique ### What kind of weather information does this app provide?
