### 1/5 — No feedback or error report mechanism

*2026-04-15, version 3.15*

Adelaide airport readings wrong for 5 months but no way to report this bug.

### 1/5 — BOM rain radar stopped showing up

*2021-10-23*

Rain radar no longer works. It was the best weather app before it broke :(

### 4/5 — Ban Advertising

*2020-05-20*

I prefer this App to any others BUT it has just started very loud & long advertising that I cannot stop. I’ll go back to another App now and junk this one.

### 1/5 — Has stopped working

*2019-10-27*

Either it hangs at startup/splash screen and requires the app to be killed or it gets to the radar page and sits there forever “loading”. After 10 minutes I kill the app.  Was useful but not if it doesn’t do what it used to. Was a 5 star app. Now zero stars

### 3/5 — Weather Alert Ads

*2019-05-19*

The Ap is awesome especially the prediction looking ahead. The Advertising is a real pain as they are full screen with 10 seconds delay, and often loud music.

Have tried to pay for Ap with Ade free this is not available, I always close the Ap down and go to a different Ap.  Just happened now, intend to delete Ap......it’s a waste of time and so annoying

### 5/5 — Spoken rain alerts are awesome

*2019-03-30*

The talking rain alerts are awesome and very accurate. Gives you enough time to run and get the washing off!  It means you don’t need to constantly watch the radar and estimate how much longer you have.

Terrific application.

### 5/5 — Review

*2019-03-28*

Easy to 'read' informative accurate and interesting

### 5/5 — Use it All The Time

*2019-03-27*

Love it very easy to use.

### 5/5 — Overworked!

*2019-03-20*

I’m in the wet tropics, this app is overworked!
Continually alerting me!

### 5/5 — Graeme

*2019-03-12*
