Tapping anywhere - on the x, near the x, on the area to get the advertised app, nothing works . Restarting the app doesn’t change the behavior. ### 1/5 — Horrible ad program *2021-07-13, version V1.2.6* The program won’t even load because of a required Ad they want you to download before it even finishes loading. Horrible, don’t waste your time in this. ### 1/5 — Can’t get past the ads *2021-06-21, version V1.2.6* I understand free apps often have ads but it wouldn’t allow me to close the ads after they displayed, only close the entire app instead. So after 5 time of this I deleted the app. ### 1/5 — Can’t even access it *2021-05-10, version V1.2.6* I downloaded this app and when I went to open it, a borderline pornographic ad started playing and then froze. I force-quit the app and another ad appears but it’s also frozen and I can’t actually get into the app. Seems like spam, totally not legit. ### 2/5 — Definite not a true ambient thermometer. *2020-09-01, version V1.2.6* It will not report on ambient (ie “immediate surroundings”) temperatures as it requires location authority to report the local /outside/ temperature (not that if the ambient environment of the phone. If it had no cell/WiFi/mesh signal but still reported, then I’d believe it reported ambient temperatures. ### 1/5 — Didn’t work at al *2020-08-31, version V1.2.6* Real time thermometer functions are not even available for anything other than the same cities you find on every single app. I tried to use it for the room temp and live thermometer options they say it has. Total waste of time. Those options are not here. Only the stuff that my free weather app gave me with my phone. Useless ### 1/5 — Hijacking Instagram *2019-09-03, version V1.2.6* I don’t know if it was a bug or a an inappropriate function but this App would attempt to open whenever I would click a link to Instagram and iOS would ask if I wanted to open the App. If it does this for other people something fishy may be going on. Anyway, this app is basically pointless since it just reads the local temperature from other services. Avoid it. ### 1/5 — Not as described! *2019-07-21, version V1.2.6* Downloaded this app to see what the temperature was in the room I’m in. (The app claims to give you current ambient temperature using the built in thermostat in my phone). All it would give me was the temperature outside my location. I already had an app for that! Hope I didn’t have to PAY for this mistake!! Very disappointed!!! ### 1/5 — FRAUD APP! *2019-07-16, version V1.2.6* I’m contacting the Better Business Bureau ASAP. Total SCAM! Does nothing that free weather apps cannot do & DOES NOT give any option to find your room temperature as advertised. My recommendation: Do not buy any of this developers apps. I want a total refund & hope to discredit this false advertiser which makes so many of us hesitant to ever purchase an app again. ### 1/5 — False advertising! *2019-07-08, version V1.2.6* This app made me so furious. I was duped into thinking that this is an app that detects indoor temperature per their description. It says “this app can turn your phone into a real-time temperature checker with ambient inside temperature and feels like body temperature”. The description made me believe I was buying indoor thermometer which is what I typed when I searched for such app. I searched for indoor thermometer, and this app came as second in the list of results. It promised everything I was looking for. But to my chagrin its a false advertising! I was duped. All it gives are temperature outside in your city! This thing does not tell you anything you would already get from free app like Accuweather. What a waste of time and money. If there is a zero I would give a zero. So very very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Total scam app *2019-06-10, version V1.2.6* Don’t waste your money. I needed to check the temperature on the inside of the building so I downloaded this app. Next thing I know is filling my phone up with Ads for washing machines weight reducing formulas and a ton of other crap offers.. This kind of app should be illegal. Don’t waste your money....oh yeah, it also cannot read indoor temps! ### 1/5 — Terrible *2019-04-16, version V1.2.5* This app did not even show a price but instantly loaded on my phone when I touched for information. I thought it was free??? Then when I open it nothing shows up on my phone at all except a blank black screen. Thermometer never appears ### 1/5 — Also not impressed *2019-03-29, version V1.2.5* App did not do anything until I input a location. That’s not ambient temp, that’s the city’s recorded temp. Sitting in the same location but entering a different city, I got an ambient temp measure of 24° lower. Wow, I did not feel that 3-second cold front blow through!! Will be deleting this app as I already have the weather app. It did NOT do what it advertised. ### 1/5 — Don’t fall for it *2019-03-22, version V1.2.5* I wasn’t sure what iPhone sensor it was going to use to measure the temperature but I needed the interior temperature so I tried it. 42 degrees inside my office? Uh, no. I’m assuming it grabs a temperature from a local weather station. So, it doesn’t work, but at least there are a ton of ads to watch. You know, if that’s your thing. ### 1/5 — Frustrated *2019-02-23, version V1.2.0* I was hoping for an ambient temperature app, that can measure the temp in my room. Of course it cannot do that. No idea what it’s like as a weather app, but honestly weather underground or similar will do a comparable job with a smaller number of pop-up ads. The app description needs to be more precise. ### 1/5 — Awful *2019-02-16, version V1.2.0* Nothing like an app that pops up multiple ads prior to even showing the functionality of the app. I still don’t know if it works because the ads kept getting in the way. God awful. Should advertise as app for adds not a thermometer ### 1/5 — Just a basic weather app *2019-02-15, version V1.2.0* This app just gives the info off the nearest weather station, not your actual location, and certainly not the ambiant in your house. I tested it at known temperatures. Save yourself the frustration of plowing through their ads, and just use your on-board weather app. ### 2/5 — Needs Serious Repairs *2019-01-15, version V1.1.9* My temperature sensor isn’t working on my truck so I loaded this app. It worked fine for whatever state I was in. After a couple weeks, they added advertising. Fine. Except the advertising is the first thing that comes up. When I close out of the initial ad, the app crashes and closes. I can’t even get the local temp anymore. Bye bye. ### 1/5 — It’s not a thermometer for inside rooms *2018-12-13, version V1.1.9* I downloaded this app, I thought this would measure the temperature of inside the room, but it don’t do that. Instead, this app is a simple weather app, which your phone already has it. So plz don’t bother and don’t download it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Please Optimize *2022-12-11, version V1.2.6* This app had several ads with “close” button options that did not respond to the touch of my thumb. It also shut down multiple times and kept displaying ads. I’ve never gotten to see the functionality of this app at all. ### 1/5 — Will not open *2022-05-11, version V1.2.6* I tried to open the app, but keeps taking me to other adds which require me to add those apps if I want to proceed. I refuse to be held hostage. Probably an Apple Store issue so sad that this app suffers the consequence. ### 1/5 — It only plays advertising *2022-05-10, version V1.2.6* It only plays advertising. it doesn’t do anything beyond that. It will display that you can skip the ad after 5 seconds, but it won’t. it just keeps playing until the ad is over and nothing else happens. ### 1/5 — Fake! *2022-02-23, version V1.2.6* Its just an actual game. After the full screen game ad times out you still cant close the ad So you will just keep trying and refreshing the app meanwhile playing their ad over and over I should have known better ### 1/5 — Does Nothing Except Show Ads *2022-02-02, version V1.2.6* It starts off with an ad…and then never goes anywhere. The close button for the ad is non-responsive. The ad doesn’t even work and take you to what is being advertised. Worthless. ### 1/5 — Beware *2022-02-01, version V1.2.6* After downloading this app from the AppStore, it is impossible to open as it forces user to download other dubious apps. Not able to report problem either. ### 1/5 — Fail *2022-01-18, version V1.2.6* When I open the app, it gives me a commercial that I can’t X out of. Not a timed app, but ones with Xs that don’t work. Tried multiple times, got multiple apps that I couldn’t X out of. Gave up and deleted. ### 1/5 — App didn’t work *2021-12-14, version V1.2.6* You open the app, watch an ad, you can’t “x” the ad when the seconds go to zero. The app never worked for me. Don’t bother downloading, you will delete it in less than 3 mins. ### 1/5 — Not Working *2021-12-09, version V1.2.6* iOS 14.2. Installer app. Won’t run. Initial screen displayed with progress “button”. After a few seconds app closes. Still won’t run on IOS 15.1.1 and iPhone 13. Should be. 0 stars since all that is displayed is start up screen and the app closes. Don’t waste time with this app. Find one that it least starts. ### 1/5 — Would Not Recommend *2021-11-15, version V1.2.6* I was never able to even see what the app had to offer because as soon as I would open it, an add would start playing, and it wouldn’t go away even after I clicked the X. When the add would finish playing, the screen would stay frozen and unresponsive for several minutes before I’d eventually give up and close the app altogether. I tried it again the next day and had the same issue. What a bummer :/ ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good App *2018-05-29, version V1.1.3* This is a good app. I wish it would turn when I turn my IPad but that is not a big deal. ### 5/5 — What you see is what you get *2018-03-14, version V1.1.3* Gives you the current temperature in the places you are interested in. ### 5/5 — Accurate *2018-03-04, version V1.1.3* Seems to give the correct outside temp Wish it could measure the temp inside But the iPhone is not capable So it will do for now ### 5/5 — So far it is good *2018-02-04, version V1.1.2* So far this app appears to be working. I’ll write another review after a week of use. I purchased the “Thermometer & Temperature” app, it stopped working after I paid for it. I downloaded this app with optimistic hope that I will have a better and pleasant experience. ### 5/5 — Same as the Weather Apps, but smaller *2018-01-26, version V1.1.2* Smaller app than TWC and the one included with the iOS, so more practical and easier on the phone’s resources. Haven’t got any glitches so far, can’t say the same with TWC which can’t handle iOS 11 too well. This one hasn’t had any issues. And changing predetermined cities is as easy as a finger swap of the screen. ### 5/5 — Temp *2018-01-03, version V1.1.2* So far, so good. North Tx in unusual cold snap & app has been accurate to local news & my back yard thermometer. Great cuz I don’t have to go look at back yard temp. Too cold when I’m under electric blanket! ### 5/5 — Simple temp app. *2017-12-29, version v1.1.0* Just wish it showed accurate temp on the app icon instead of having to open it. ### 5/5 — Good app *2017-12-11, version V1.0.9* Simple, easy and accurate to quickly check current temperature. ### 5/5 — Fazlur Rahman *2017-10-20, version V1.0.4* It works great and is very convenient. I would provide 5 star. Thanks to developer of this great application. Keep up good works ### 5/5 — CamperGal46 *2017-09-28, version V1.0.4* Love the thermometer. The most accurate I've found. Great when traveling! Thanks. Good job, you guys. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
