User reviews

Ads made this app insufferable

Used to LOVE this app as it was super reliable, but now that I can’t skip these ads they force you to sit through if you don’t want to pay $12 a year for ad free weather info, it’s horrible. I’ll stick to going straight to NWS for my information. Weather information should NOT be monetized, you all pay taxes that go towards incentivizing this information… why pay more?! Paying for this information to avoid sitting through ads is just revolting to me as a meteorologist.

Go to weather.gov to obtain your weather information that is readily available (ad free).

Forecast in 5 minutes

Used to be a good app. Now they added advertisements that are broken. So I have to restart the app, watch another ad, and hope it works.

No longer forecast now, it is forecast in five minutes, maybe.

Favorite Weather App

I have used a lot of weather apps and Forecast Now is my favorite

Hard to read forecasts.

The letters on the forecast are way too small.

Ads

Was a good simple app but recently was changed with more intrusive ads. You often can’t just open it to see the forecast. Now you get blasted with a loud ad with no way to short circuit. It’s a shame because I really like the app.
