### 4/5 — only one place allowed

*2025-08-05, version 1.5.3*

you can’t add two places or more 
but the app and the wether is great

### 4/5 — It does the basics but don’t ask for more. I’m gonna ask.

*2024-07-01*

Look, guys. It’s a good little app. Can we please have the option to change from centigrade to Fahrenheit and change location to see what the weather will be like where we are traveling to before we get there? It’s not too much to ask is it?

### 3/5 — Crashing Repeatedly after Launching

*2023-09-25*

Not sure what the deal is but this app has been crashing constantly. I open it on my device and it crashes within 30 seconds or less of launch. 

Used to crash once to the Home Screen and work after a second launch, but now it’s crashing all the time. 

Not worth the time to check it if I have to deal with constant crashing. 

I’m giving it three stars for now. If it corrects itself I will raise the review accordingly. If it continues like this I will lower it.

**Developer response:** A new version of Blue is now available on the App Store, and the issue is now fixed! Please accept this weather joke as our apology:

Thunderwear!

### 4/5 — Applicazione fantastica

*2023-06-16, version 1.5.2*

4 stelle perché Manca l’umidità.

### 2/5 — Forecast

*2020-11-19*

There used to be a two week forecast. Why did you take it away? Also, the location should be able to be changed, people want to see the weather at places where they will go, not always where they are. Used to be a good app, now not so much.

### 3/5 — Uhhh...

*2020-04-03*

This app is -ok-. It is super simple -er too simple. It has a lack of customizing and I really wish you could change the location or maybe switch the weather data that’s all though. It is a good app, just way too simple—

### 3/5 — Lack of Customisation

*2018-07-19*

The app is great: easy to use and very simplistic. The problem is that it is perhaps too simplistic. I, personally, would like a little more freedom is terms of customisation like being able to choose the hue that corresponds to the temperature or even something as simple as being able to choose the unit of measurement, for example. The app is exclusively in Fahrenheit, which I think is something that should be changeable.

### 4/5 — Ok

*2018-05-02, version 1.5*

Simple and straight forward aesthetic.

### 2/5 — Weather

*2018-04-17, version 1.5*

Hi
Why is there no Celsius???????????????

### 3/5 — Pretty & clever but not informative enough for me

*2018-04-16*

It’s a clever idea but doesn’t provide enough information for my needs. Also a little disappointed it does not have a guide to the color meanings.

### 4/5 — I Like It, But... by👸🏻♿️

*2018-04-16*

There’s no display 4 humidity. JUST the temp.
2 the person complaining that remembering the colors is 2 much; SERIOUSLY?!?! If it wasn’t 4 color I wouldn’t b able 2 remember anything! Then again, I’m a synesthete.

### 3/5 — Add menú 3D Touch

*2018-03-27, version 1.5*

Very good, but should 3d tocuh

### 4/5 — Add settings support

*2018-01-18, version 1.5*

The app os really great, but I need change the temperature measure, because I use a different region on my device. A easy way to fix it, is add a option in settings giving the possibility of change between Cº and Fº.
Thanks and nice work!

### 4/5 — Add a widget please

*2017-12-28*

Love the app because of its simplicity and everything but when I need to check the weather fast I just go to my widget page and bam there it is all the other weather apps have it please make it

### 3/5 — I need Celsius degrees

*2017-12-27, version 1.5*

Because I’m from Middle East I need celsius degree we don’t use Fahrenheit here!

### 4/5 — Neat app

*2017-12-22, version 1.5*

So far, the only suggestion I have is that it really needs an animated notification center widget. I like the stock weather app widget. Make one kind of similar to that, if possible.

### 4/5 — Minimal and effective but...

*2017-10-26, version 1.4*

But I want to know the custom URL so I can launch it easily from s 3rdparty launcher. Developer??? Thank you!

### 3/5 — Apple Watch

*2017-10-02, version 1.4*

Compatibilidad con Apple Watch!!

### 3/5 — Beautiful but a few refinements needed

*2017-10-02*

Beautiful app. A few refinements: put °C option in the settings app (instead of tying it only to phone’s location settings), and use last known location/data when GPS is turned off.

### 1/5 — No updates ..inaccurate weather...dead app?

*2020-02-26*

I have been a strong proponent of this app for several years now and have found it to be one of the most simplistic yet accurate and useful tools of all my apps. 
You wanna know the temp right now you got it, you wanna know in 3 hours what to expect you got that too, you want to track the start and stop times of some oncoming weather thing and this app was spot on accurate down to within about 10 minutes no joke! 
I loved it but the last two weather events about to roll in my area, and I pull out my most trusted weather app to find out then”real” story,  it tells me no bad weather just a couple hours of light flurries, so the weatherman and everyone are wrong again...within minutes it started to dump snow and the app had it clear or light flurries.  I ignored it as a glitch but today similar thing, schools are closing as a proactive measure and when looking at the app, for a few hours they show a light chance of light flurries then clear! 
Inaccurate weather reports are about as good as a sandbox in the desert! 

Seems there is no support or updates so to me it’s a delete, with a warning to others, I wouldn’t trust this application if I were you! 

Am deleting now!

### 1/5 — Good concept

*2017-12-26*

this app tried to hard to deliver simplicity but fails. First of all, their color schemes need time to used to. For a weather app I just want something quick to scan through. Remembering purple is what, green is what is just too much. Second, it lacks concerns of diversity. For example, not all Americans (well. Anyone lives in the United States) use Fahrenheit. And you can’t even change that in the settings. Since they use your current location to determine temperature units. This really undermines usability.

### 1/5 — Location Spyware?!

*2017-12-22, version 1.5*

Unless you agree to allow it to know your location… It won’t work.

Most weather apps allow you to specify a location, e.g., New York City.

Why does this app require you to allow it to track your location?

I deleted it.

### 1/5 — gps, info

*2017-11-28, version 1.4*

Too 'minimalistic' design, not informative. does not work without GPS.

### 1/5 — No cache

*2017-10-04, version 1.4*

It does not cache the last fetched forecast when you are offline.

### 1/5 — Nothing

*2017-09-24, version 1.4*

All I get is the notice “invalid location” with no way to correct it when I tap on it nothing happens I restarted it still the same just the notice invalid location, for me it doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Can NOT work if you set GPS off

*2017-09-24, version 1.4*

This app Crash when you turn off your GPS

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2017-09-23, version 1.4*

Doesn’t work without GPS. Uninstalled.

### 1/5 — Where's the humidity reading??

*2015-08-05, version 1.2*

The preview images are deceptive -there's no humidity reading, which was the reason for my purchase.

### 1/5 — Stays at loading

*2015-01-05, version 1.2*

Doesn't load stays at the loading page on iPhone 5s

### 5/5 — My favorite weather app

*2020-08-19, version 1.5*

No other app displays the weather this simply! fastest way to get a feel for the weather 

possibly my favorite app of all time!

### 5/5 — Quality app

*2018-05-06*

Blue does everything I need from a weather app. The visual interface is really pleasing. The colors make it really easy and quick to see what the weather trends are going to be. Also, it’s nice to have Dark Sky’s information without paying for that app!

### 5/5 — So Clean & Easy

*2018-04-26, version 1.5*

Against what some people are saying, I love the simplicity of this app. Perfect for getting a quick sense of the weather. Beautifully designed and the visual representation of the weather makes it so easy to understand

### 5/5 — Great and simple.

*2017-12-27, version 1.5*

I really like the idea of colors to tell the temperature. I would love it more of the was a widget I could put as well.

### 5/5 — Best weather app so far!

*2017-12-23*

I love minimalist apps and this is amazing. Finally I am not bombarded with pop-up ads every time I want to check on my weather! Nice job, Blue!

### 5/5 — Perfetta

*2017-11-21, version 1.4*

Grafica molto bella e minimale, perfetta la temperatura e anche quella delle ore seguenti è comunque precisa

### 5/5 — App free, thanks for update for iOS 11

*2017-09-25, version 1.4*

App is free, thanks for update for iOS 11. 
Thanks to for the responsive Developer

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2017-09-24*

I just got this app and I love it!  The temperature is accurate compared with my computer and my Echo.  No extraneous info that I don't need to wade through.  Thank you!

### 5/5 — Lovely

*2017-09-23, version 1.4*

Useful, attractive, functional. Great app.

### 5/5 — Wow, love it

*2015-04-11, version 1.2*

I love this app. Clean, minimal design that is a pleasure to use and look at. Really out of the box UI design. Great work!
