I plan to send pics to the developer for further explanation and advise to better fine tune my settings ### 5/5 — A Must! *2026-08-16, version 12.6.0* I have been using the Drive Weather app to drive across country and it has given me accurate and descriptive weather, warning us of possible dangers, etc, along with options for lodging. Several occasions, the creator has gotten back to us right away when we had a question about the app. Definitely worth the purchase! I have suggested it to dozens of people. ### 5/5 — Spot on! *2026-08-16, version 12.6.0* This app is so accurate. I never leave home on travel without it. ### 2/5 — Terrible predictions *2026-08-15, version 12.6.0* I’ve used the app 5 times. 3 times it told me no rain and I got stuck in the rain. 2 times, I took the truck because it called for rain. Could have had a beautiful ride today. Just annoyed. ### 5/5 — Like this app *2026-08-15, version 12.6.0* Great for traveling ### 5/5 — Works well *2026-08-13, version 12.6.0* I can see weather and wind, which is important for driving my EV on road trips ### 5/5 — Great app for planning drives! *2026-08-13, version 12.6.0* I’m a fan and regularly recommend this app for anyone who wants to know about the weather when they are traveling. I have also found the developer to be responsive when I had issues. ### 5/5 — Wonderful to be able to prepare *2026-08-13, version 12.5.0* It’s wonderful to know what you’re driving into. The app also shows you a map so you can see where you’re going and what the weather will be when you’re driving through. You can plan stops around weather. You can also pick when you’re leaving so it’s not just in real time. I love the app! 💕 ### 5/5 — Best Travel App! *2026-08-10, version 12.5.0* I have been using this app for several years. It is by far the best, most accurate, most user-friendly, and easiest approach to projecting weather for upcoming travel days. A+++++ ### 5/5 — Helpful for our RV trips *2026-08-08, version 12.5.0* We have been using this app to plan for our RV travel days. It’s very helpful to see the weather and adjust the times. We need to leave in order to have the safest trip. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-08-08, version 12.4.2* The title says it all. Drive weather is the perfect app, if you travel a lot. It’s very accurate, and has helped me avoid severe weather on several occasions. It also shows a route that is t in my google, or maps app. ### 5/5 — Mom *2026-08-07, version 12.4.1* This app is great!!! ### 5/5 — A Must Have *2026-08-07, version 12.4.2* A great tool for travel, especially for motorcyclists! ### 5/5 — Best *2026-08-07, version 12.4.1* Accurate and reliable ### 5/5 — Very handy for road tripping *2026-08-06, version 12.5.0* Downloaded the app to my iPhone and realized it had real potential running through CarPlay for our road trips. I purchased a subscription to unlock all the features. It ran great on the phone but there seemed to be issues with CarPlay. But a couple emails with the app’s tech support and they quickly solved my problems (operator error 🥴). Now all the features are running smooth on both platforms. Super handy app for car travel. ### 5/5 — Don't travel without it *2026-08-06, version 12.4.2* I've come to depend on DriveWeather to help me avoid weather-related hazards on trips between 50 and 2500 miles. ### 5/5 — Drive Weather is great app *2026-08-02, version 12.4.1* Love this app! Accurate. Easy to use. ### 4/5 — Easy to use and mostly accurate. *2026-08-01, version 12.4.1* Saves multiple tracking records by checking each City separately. I like that it does show when rain is on the route. Minor bug that some cities don't show in advance. Only if you are actually in that City ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Requires a credit card *2026-08-16, version 12.6.0* Just to register for free version requires a credit card. Why?? No one needs your credit card for a free version of their App, I don’t care that they say it will not be charge if you are using the free version. There is No need for our credit card information. ### 1/5 — Buggy *2026-08-05, version 12.4.2* Paid Pro version does not work properly on iPhone 8 with IOS v. 16.7.16 . Cannot access either the Presentation menu or the Drive Summary text, despite updating, reloading, rebooting, etc. Very frustrating and a waste of time and money. ### 1/5 — Completely useless with CarPlay. *2026-06-25, version 12.3.8* You have to use your phone to enter your destinations which completely defeats the purpose of CarPlay. All other map applications let you enter the destination from your CarPlay screen. Could be a good app if it was useful. ### 1/5 — Don’t serve for nothing *2026-06-19, version 12.3.7* Useless ### 1/5 — Only usable if you pay *2026-06-16, version 12.3.7* Unless you pay, you can’t use any and I mean not a thing can be used on this app unless you pay ### 1/5 — Mr. Mom *2026-05-31, version 12.3.6* Did not see a radar anywhere in the app on the non paying version. ### 1/5 — Must Register *2026-05-22, version 12.3.4* Ads…and too many steps to start route. ### 1/5 — What happened? *2026-05-17, version 12.3.2* … this is a cursory review- the APP started off and ran like a champ for some time- then now suddenly I don’t have and weather icons on the display- so what gives- folks?… was it me/my fault/something I did?… thanks! ### 1/5 — Not a great experience *2026-04-25, version 12.2.0* D iffficult to use ### 1/5 — Gulf of America???? *2026-03-15, version 12.0.1* Shocked you CHOOSE to list whatever people tell you to and not a fact. Since you choose to list, opinion, opinions, and no facts, how reliable is any of your weather data? I put it to the test on a drive across this country and it was not accurate, just like Gulf of America is not accurate. I have selected a new weather app using facts, not politics. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Vital data for driving long distances *2026-08-26, version 12.7.0* Absolutely love this app! Use it when driving our car, motorhome, and pulling trailers. The app allows me to change % of posted speed limits which is different for all the types of driving we do. Love that I can see estimated temperatures, wind speed and gusts, and precipitation! ### 5/5 — Perfect *2026-08-24, version 12.7.0* The title says it all. Drive weather is the perfect app, if you travel a lot. It’s very accurate, and has helped me avoid severe weather on several occasions. It also shows a route that is t in my google, or maps app. ### 5/5 — Like this app *2026-08-22, version 12.6.0* Great for traveling, gives me a heads up what to expect along my drive ### 5/5 — Good for planning drives *2026-08-21, version 12.6.0* I’ve enjoyed using this app to plan ahead for when I want to leave on a long drive. I like how simple it is, not trying to do anything else, just showing weather along the driving route really cleanly. ### 5/5 — Wonderful to be able to prepare *2026-08-20, version 12.6.0* It’s wonderful to know what you’re driving into.

If you’re a frequent driver of long distances, you can’t afford to be without this app. ### 5/5 — Great *2026-08-18, version 12.6.0* Was going to buy an updated sync 3 module so I could get weather on the info screen and they wanted 600 bucks for just the module. I paid the 20.00 bucks for a year of Drive Weather and am totally happy with it. ### 5/5 — best weather app *2026-08-18, version 12.6.0* Connected to car play .. incredible app. works and saved me knowing a storm brew up ahead before i could seenit ### 5/5 — Just great *2026-08-18, version 12.6.0* Very helpful with our various long distance trips! ### 5/5 — Love the app *2026-08-18, version 12.6.0* I travel in tornado alley and this helps me determine when to hit the road.
