### 2/5 — A good start, but not worth paying for

*2024-03-03*

I like the start to the UI, but that’s really all it seemed like : a starting point.
It doesn’t fully fit on one screen and the UI isn’t intuitive.
Of course I compare everything to how wonderful Dark Sky was, so maybe that’s not fair.  But this really isn’t worth paying for yet.  Seems more like a first draft.

### 4/5 — Good

*2024-02-13*

Easy

### 5/5 — Saved Locations

*2024-02-04*

How do we save locations so we don’t need to re-key to check our other repeat locations?

**Developer response:** I have not implemented that, I'll implement that in the next version

### 5/5 — Saved Locations

*2024-01-25*

How do we save locations so we don’t need to re-key to check our other repeat locations?

### 3/5 — didn’t load

*2023-11-06*

I had this app sitting on for phone loading for about 30 minutes and it never loaded. This is terrible. Once it did open the UI was pretty good.

**Developer response:** I’ll take the blame. Initially I built this app for me only as the Apple weather app sucks, I didn’t put a lot of effort or expected people to like it but apparently a lot of people do. I’ll work on it this weekend to fix that issue you’re seeing

### 5/5 — Dark cloud

*2023-09-27*

Love the ease of using this app

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work well

*2023-09-25*

Many times this app defaults to “somewhere” and will not let you search an actual location, so it is fairly useless.  I would say this happens at least 69% of the time.

**Developer response:** I’m sorry this happened to you. I pushed a recent update recently to fix this issue. If this happen again send me an email to naticio@icloud.com

### 5/5 — Nice to have something that's clear and  simple, that works well.

*2023-09-06*

Nicely done.

1) the temperature is listed in feels-like;
present temp in feels-like and F or C. I find that (now) I find the feels-like more to my liking.

2) if rain is imminent a graph of time vs intesity is displayed.

3) A dark cloud icon appears in the bottom left of the screen. When pressed it displays a gps map of the terrain and weather at your location - when zoomed it displays ground features with the highest resolution I have ever seen.

The animation is subtle but useful, and can be refreshed by changing zoom levels.

I love the simplicity of this app.

Roger Miller

**Developer response:** thanks for the kind words. I'm working to improve the animation of the clouds (which is surprisingly difficult, now I understand why Apple struggled with this). 

if you have a feature you'd like to see send me an email

### 5/5 — Great !

*2023-03-09*

It’s great, so simple to check the weather

### 1/5 — Is This A Joke?

*2023-02-28, version 2.8.1*

Installed app... opened it up, attempted to scroll through the information and the app crashed. It crashed every time I touched it to do anything and THEN told me I had already checked the weather 10 times and had to either 1) wait until tomorrow or 2) pay money. This app should be reported and removed.
