### 4/5 — The best app for weather

*2026-08-23*

It’s a good app, but sometimes it lags and I can’t search anything. Also sometimes it lags about weather. But overall it’s a very good weather app, I recommend!

### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-08-17, version 2.83.0*

I use the free version and the pop up ads don’t allow you to use the app 60% of the time. You have to hold close the app and restart it, then hope an Ad doesn’t pop up again.

### 3/5 — Hi

*2026-08-15, version 2.83.0*

Less adverts

### 5/5 — Good access to data

*2026-08-12, version 2.83.0*

### 5/5 — Amazing detailed forecasts

*2026-07-23, version 2.83.0*

This is the most comprehensive forecast data of any app or weather service out there and it is completely free. It is also very customizable, as you can edit what data shows on the Now, Daily, and Hourly. This app is very unique.

### 5/5 — Accurate

*2026-07-22*

Most accurate and complete weather app I have ever used.

### 5/5 — Very accurate & filled with useful info

*2026-07-22, version 2.83.0*

This app is easy to use. It has an hourly you can change the view to your liking. It has a graph tab with highs and lows color-coded I highly recommend this app

### 5/5 — Étonnante précision très appréciée !

*2026-07-18*

Application qui m’était complètement inconnue jusqu’à maintenant…bien malheureusement, car c’est finalement la plus précise que j’ai testée. La possibilité de rajouter uniquement les spécifications météo que l’on souhaite rend la lecture de prévisions très lisible. A noter les observations, plus ou moins complètes, mais systématiquement proposées par ordre d’éloignement du lieu de prévisions. Cette fonction est très utile pour comparer et ajuster ses propres prévisions. Bravo pour cette application météo très complète !
