Parfois, visualiser les fronts ou les précipitations serait plus rapide que de tout lire. ### 3/5 — Good. Could be better *2024-08-20, version 6.27* Does not always update. ### 2/5 — Can’t send a bug report *2024-06-11, version 6.24* Tried to send a big report as the app will no longer let me search new airports, but the bug report doesn’t work either. Please fix ### 4/5 — Nice *2024-02-28* A few long to refresh sometimes, need more velocity ! ### 3/5 — Weather data fetch takes far too long. *2024-02-21, version 6.18* I only have two airports configured, and they are both major airports in the United States (Texas). Upon app startup, a fetch of current weather data begins. That fetch usually takes several minutes to complete. At this writing, I have a fetch underway that has been running for 8 minutes. That’s far too long. ### 2/5 — Can’t restore *2023-11-04, version 6.5* Was a good app and I enjoyed using it. I purchases the pro version 6-8 months ago, and after recent app upgrades, I’m unable to restore my purchase basically making the app useless. Searched but can’t seem to find a way to contact app developer. Seems like this is a common theme with other recent reviews. ### 5/5 — Additons *2023-10-26, version 6.4* So far I liked the app enough to purchase it. Anyway you could add a couple of IFR airports for me? KCBK KGLD ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work! *2023-10-18, version 6.3* App fails to restore purchase to Pro after last update… don’t waste your money ### 1/5 — Bad app *2023-08-17, version 5.8* Not very easy to get around. Only 1 airport time to delete and get another FAA weather app. ### 4/5 — Needs a way to refresh the data. *2023-08-16, version 5.8* I agree with others that this is a great app but it doesn't update the information provide. I usually 'kill' the app and then restart it to get new info. A ridiculous method. Swiping down for a refresh would be great. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Limit on favorites *2025-04-28, version 6.35* Being able to favorite multiple airports to get a quick idea of the current weather is crucial in go no go decisions. This app for whatever reason decided to put that behind a paywall. Other apps do this for free. ### 1/5 — Slowpoke weather app!! *2024-11-18, version 6.29* App works very slow, not what I thought I paid for. I wouldn’t buy it again. ### 1/5 — Trash don’t get *2024-09-05, version 6.27* Got the pro version and it won’t let me load any new airports. Waste of money if you ask me ### 1/5 — Slow updates *2024-03-31, version 6.22* I’ve used several different metar/ Asos sites. This is by far the slowest to update for new data. Sometimes doesn’t even update. Definitely find a new one that’s faster. ### 1/5 — Does not do what it is meant to *2024-02-05* Does not provide METAR TAF or NOTAM data from an airport that has this information available ### 1/5 — Upgrade-seems backwards *2024-01-29, version 6.14* The upgrade limits the number of airports I can get data from ### 1/5 — Broken *2023-11-08, version 6.7* Update: developer fixed the bug to restore purchase but still can’t view full metar or taf. Was great. Bought the pro version. Now after updating can’t restore my purchase. Can’t view full metar, cant view taf. ### 1/5 — Broken *2023-10-28* I purchased this app a few years ago. Since the update I have lost my purchase. I have tried multiple times to restore the purchase but it won’t work. Avoid this app until it’s fixed or it’s just a money grab. **Developer response:** Dear Doc_Bishop, Thank you for your feedback. We fixed the bug, please update the app. Sorry for the inconvenience. ### 1/5 — Buyer beware *2023-10-28, version 6.4* Liked the format overall. However, the second I purchased it, the favorites option would not let me store more than one airport. That was the whole point in making the purchase……to save more than one favorite airport. ### 1/5 — Easy Aviation pro *2023-10-26, version 6.3* I just purchased the easy Aviation pro app. It is not working and I can find no where to get Support to help solve the problem. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Wetter-App für Profis *2026-03-01* Schneller Zugriff auf METAR und TAF, alles übersichtlich aufbereitet. ### 5/5 — Best quick weather check *2026-02-26, version 9.40* I rely on this app daily for flight prep. Fast, accurate, and simple to use. ### 5/5 — Favorite pre-flight tool *2026-02-25, version 9.40* Simple, clean, and fast. I use it daily before any flight. ### 5/5 — Accurate TAF forecasts *2026-02-25, version 9.40* The TAF predictions have been spot on, even for smaller airports. Very reliable. ### 5/5 — Instant METAR lookup *2025-10-28, version 6.38* I can pull up airport conditions in seconds. Clean interface, no delay. ### 5/5 — Quick station search *2025-10-25, version 6.38* I typed in a small field’s code and got its METAR instantly. Didn’t expect it to have that kind of coverage for rural strips. ### 5/5 — Good widget *2025-04-10* Good widget ### 5/5 — Good *2024-04-18, version 6.23* Good ### 5/5 — They fixed it! *2023-11-09, version 6.8* Edit: They fixed the app! Thank you for actually listening! I purchased this app a few years ago. Since the update I have lost my purchase. I have tried multiple times to restore the purchase but it won’t work. Avoid this app until it’s fixed or it’s just a money grab. ### 5/5 — Unable to restore *2023-11-02* Hello, due to technical problems with my phone, I was obliged to reinstall all my apps, but it seems to be unable to restore my pro purchase. Otherwise, the app is quite good. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
