### 3/5 — Fun but pricey

*2026-08-25, version 6.8.0*

Would be a better app if it had more free features

### 4/5 — Need some work

*2026-08-24, version 6.8.0*

Doesn’t work very, very well with a VPN keep forgetting location and layout.

### 2/5 — Issue with rain cloud icons

*2026-08-23, version 6.8.0*

Maybe this is unique to me but I live in the midwestern US and lately this app is showing rain clouds and thunderstorm icons at dry times. I’m literally looking at the precip chart showing 0 all afternoon and it’s still rain cloud icons. The UI is super cute and good, but i NEED them to fix this for it to remain usable. —a decade-long user

### 2/5 — Trim and focus and make it cheaper

*2026-08-20, version 6.8.0*

I literally just did a review then an app update came through stripping even more features!

I’ve had this now for a couple of years, pay the price as it makes me smile. I pay £19.49 a year, now, for the weather, something readily available for free from lots of places, so that’s a lot!
I’ve watched the app get stuffed with unnecessary features, get messy, and slowly things getting stripped away for ‘ultra’ even basic things or just handy things like Apple car play. Now that the edge of the comedy aspect and pretty graphics is wearing off this is beginning to really annoy me, the weather accuracy has also gotten worse and having just done the app update you’ve stripped away multi day on the sonar, what next! I mean, come on. 
So, I’ll give it 6 months, I hope you’re the type of developers that look at reviews and take on board the criticism from your loyal customers … whether you act on it is your choice, but I will be cancelling and deleting if things don’t improve.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-19, version 6.8.0*

Good

### 5/5 — I like it 👍

*2026-08-17, version 6.8.0*

Really good app that tells the real temperature other than those default apps that have no entertainment with them. The creator(s) put a lot of thought into this app but the one thing I don’t really like about it is that we have to pay money for almost everything. Five stars overall 👍

### 5/5 — Pedro

*2026-08-15, version 6.8.0*

Pedro

### 5/5 — The Best

*2026-08-14, version 6.8.0*

I wish I found this app sooner!

### 5/5 — GET IT NOW

*2026-08-12, version 6.8.0*

Finally a weather app that also takes care my self deprecation monologue which  saves me a lot of time. I love a multiple purpose tools. I unfortunately only retain information if it is present in a way that degrades me. 

Serious Note: it’s a damn good weather app, lots of details and lots of little features that are genuinely really nice quality of life and information I didn’t even know was possible to obtain on the weather. 

I don’t have the notifications on as I use another weather app for that as you can see little crazy here so got to work with I got but this app is awesome and I only have the free version should probably pay for the membership as I use it multiple times a day.

### 4/5 — Fantastic weather app

*2026-08-10, version 6.8.0*

It’s one of the best weather apps ever. My husband, son and I have used Carrot for almost a year. It works great, adds humour to checking the weather and is always accurate, but for a family subscription it’s too expensive. Please can you look at reducing it slightly,  even if only £10 less? Regardless, thank you dev for the awesome work on Carrot

### 2/5 — Paywall

*2026-08-10, version 6.8.0*

I don’t see the point of this over WeatherCanada if everything is paid

### 2/5 — Feature request totally broken alerts you needlessly!!!

*2026-08-08, version 6.8.0*

Ok, you go to feature request and it tries to make you add your email. I USE THE GMAIL APP BECAUSE POP3 ACCESS IS STUPID IN 2026!!!!!  So no, just give me the email address?  No, fine, negative review then!

What’s the request?  Do t send me alerts for my county if I’m outside the alert area.  I DON’T CARE!  I’M OUTSIDE THE ALERT AREA, WHY DO TOU THINK I NEED AN ALERT?!

I mean come on, this is pretty basic human factors.  I start ignoring everything from every notification, because all I get are useless carrot ones.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-08-08, version 6.7*

I’m scared

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2026-08-30, version 6.8.0*

My partner has been complaining that Carrot is inaccurate when compared to Weather and BBC Weather. So I installed it and we compared what the values for today in the exact same location were. Completely different results. In every list of values, hers diverged from mine. Which is insane. How can we rely on this now?

### 1/5 — Rating

*2026-08-27, version 6.7*

Totally Underwhelmed… if this is how AI performs, I’ll just ask my cat the next time I have a problem.

### 1/5 — used to be good

*2026-08-23, version 6.8.0*

but is terrible now

### 1/5 — Worst weather app of all time

*2026-08-21, version 6.8.0*

Sunny day all day, no clouds in site and the app still shows a big cloud with rain.  Happens all the time.  Terrible app

### 1/5 — Bad customer service for 10 year customer

*2026-08-14, version 6.8.0*

I paid for the app, the app bundle even, at the time of purchase (as were all apps at the time) purchasing the app included all future features. Now they turned to subscription base model i have to pay more money? Fat chance. I paid for all these already. You cant just decide 10 years later you want to retroactively charge people more. Alot of these apps are now doing this, taking away feature that were originally paid for, claiming they’re new and making you pay for what you already had access to. Just last year i was able to customize the app and now thats a premium feature? Gfy 😂 ill keep the app downloaded CAUSE I PAID FOR IT, but will forever use the free weather sites. Good job at losing your longtime customers, warning to new ones: itll be you eventually. Also $30 for things you can get for free online? Get bent!

### 1/5 — Calling for violence

*2026-08-12, version 6.8.0*

Why is this app calling for riots?

### 1/5 — Wokity-Woke

*2026-08-07, version 6.8.0*

So many little woke details, including distortions of sex (referring to the company as “her”), prideful logos, and I am afraid to hear what the “snark” is. How depraved can a weather app get? Download and see.

### 1/5 — Unattractive app

*2026-08-07, version 6.8.0*

Doesn’t look pretty but keeps getting rammed with more and more features. Inappropriate humour and political statements in the app too.

### 1/5 — Feels like temperature not representative

*2026-08-02, version 6.7*

Feels like temperature not representative of actual feels like temperature, always underestimating the actual feel like temperature

### 1/5 — A dead bird could do better. GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK!!!!

*2026-07-31, version 6.6.1*

I Think I Said It All In The Title. My Wife is a lawyer, so…

### 5/5 — I used to use CARROT Weather because it’s funny…

*2026-08-30, version 6.8.0*

Now I use it because it’s the best weather app I own, and it gets better with every release.

### 5/5 — Most funny app

*2026-08-28, version 6.8.0*

Whenever I check the weather I just have a smile reading the conditions it describes. Very accurate weather and looks amazing and modern love it and minimal to no ads whatsoever much better than apple weather. Highly recommend.

*2026-08-28, version 6.8.0*

I gave it to my kid, now an ai hive mind

Most accurate weather app by far using any source you want, best visuals and iOS integration, and it even integrates your home weather system if you have one

### 5/5 — Greatest Weather App Ever

*2026-08-25, version 6.5*

Who doesn’t need a little snark in their life?  The customisation available it what sets this apart.

### 5/5 — This is the best weather app, most accurate and most funny

*2026-08-24, version 6.8.0*

I would definitely recommend this weather app. It talks all the Weather app accuracy and humor is definitely a good mix 10 out of five stars.

### 5/5 — PUFMAC DADDY

*2026-08-23, version 6.6.1*

This meat bag is the bomb he needs to listen to me more to polish up on his jokes he’s way off key must be the weather or his small computer brain

### 5/5 — Meatbag enjoys

*2026-08-22, version 6.8.0*
