The time of day disappears when scrolling. It didn’t use to do that. Now it can’t even show the weather for anywhere displaying an error. This also happens frequently when years ago it never happened. To bad. ### 1/5 — Not working anymore *2021-06-29* The app is not retrieving server information anymore. Long time with no updates. A pity because the app was nice. ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2021-06-27, version 3.2.0* Worked well for a while then stopped retrieving data. Won’t show any weather now. ### 1/5 — Best weather app- Currently not downloading data *2021-06-27, version 3.2.0* Best accurate weather app ever- BUT - Has not worked in the Carolinas since May 2021- will not respond to inquiries!!! ### 1/5 — What happened?!? *2021-06-26, version 3.2.0* I used to love this app and I would vehemently defend it as the best weather app on the market but something happened and it no longer works! There's a consistent error saying they can't access my weather data. On the rare chance that it does work the time of day no longer scrolls along with the graph, making the beautiful design pointless. But mostly it doesn't even function anymore. This makes me sad as this was the only weather app I use ### 1/5 — No longer works *2021-06-23, version 3.2.0* Do not buy. Over four years since it was updated. This app used to be my go to, number one, weather app, but it no longer works. About a month ago, the app started getting occasional errors, but its now completely unusable (it will open, but it will not gather weather data). Is the developer still alive? Who has been collecting royalties? Should be pulled from the app store until its updated. ### 1/5 — Can’t load weather lately… *2021-06-20, version 3.2.0* I really enjoyed this app, but think it might be out of date. The last several months have been hit or miss in terms of being able to load or not. The last month or so it’s exclusively a load error. Suggest a better supported app instead. ### 1/5 — Broken *2021-06-18, version 3.2.0* I used to use this app often, but it seems to be completely broken now. Either that, or the temperature in my area really is “Sorry, but we failed to retrieve the weather data.” ### 1/5 — It used to work great. *2021-06-18, version 3.2.0* After last update. Nothing works. 3 up to 9 reboots just to get it to work. Best app ever just went to pot. ### 1/5 — Broken app *2021-06-18, version 3.2.0* This app used to be great, but it’s been broken for months on end. ### 1/5 — Péssimo *2021-06-14* Parou de funcionar desde a última atualização. Mais de um mês sem informações. ### 3/5 — Used to be great - now broken *2021-06-14, version 3.2.0* I’ve been using this app for several years. I love the clean approach to displaying graphed weather forecast data. Recently, however, it has become very unreliable, frequently having difficulty pulling up current data. It has not worked at all for several weeks. Much as I liked it, I’m looking for a replacement. ### 1/5 — Broken, I wish it worked = Broken, don’t download *2021-06-13, version 3.2.0* If it worked it would be really good. No wonder it’s free! Tell the developers to hire somebody that cares to make it work again. I removed it and re-downloaded this APP and it is still not working like can’t find my location. It can’t load Data. visualizations of temperature, precipitation likelihood and amount, wind, humidity, sunrise/sunset times, "feels like", cloud cover, snow accumulation and more integrated into a 7 day minute-by-minute minimalist graph. I fell out of love. Broken now and for the week now nothing works. 😞👀🥲😔😩😓😴🙅🏽🙅🏻‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷🏻‍♀️ ### 2/5 — Weather Error - Sorry we failed to retrieve weather data. *2021-06-12, version 3.2.0* Needs fixing. Failed to retrieve weather data error. Good animations. ### 1/5 — Will not load locations! *2021-06-12, version 3.2.0* Used to be my favorite weather app but for the last month it has failed to load locations so I deleted it. ### 1/5 — Used to work… *2021-06-12, version 3.2.0* Thus stopped working for me so I deleted the app and reinstalled. Will not let me download my previously purchased version as it cannot find me. Wants me to purchase again. Nope. Big ‘ole failure. ### 1/5 — No longer retrieves data *2021-06-10, version 3.2.0* This has happened for three weeks. Bummer. ### 1/5 — Great app now defunct *2021-06-10, version 3.2.0* This app no longer works with current ios versions. ### 1/5 — Broken *2021-06-07, version 3.2.0* It used to be a great weather app, but it doesn’t work any more. App is support is nonexistent. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No longer updated *2026-08-08, version 3.2.0* Why is this app still available in the App Store? As of 8/26, the app hasn’t been updated in 9 years and it can’t retrieve weather data. ### 1/5 — Wanted to like it *2021-07-26, version 3.2.0* This app is ancient and hasn’t been updated to support iPhone X or later displays. It doesn’t load weather data anymore. ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2021-07-13, version 3.2.0* This app hasn’t loaded in months for me. Too bad, I enjoyed it. ### 1/5 — Broken *2021-07-09, version 3.2.0* Useless, does not load weather data ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2021-07-09, version 3.2.0* My app has stopped working. I’ve tried to reinstall I had several cities selected in my list and a few months ago it stopped showing data for some of them. Now none of them show data. I just get an error message when I select one. Too bad. I used to use this app daily. ### 1/5 — Loved this app two years ago… now it’s no longer working *2021-07-03, version 3.2.0* So sad, I just purchased this app only to find a blank screen… it says it cannot find weather for my location. I live in New York City. Very unfortunate. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work anymore *2021-07-03, version 3.2.0* I paid this application and also it was really good but it is stop working recently. Developers need to update it. ### 1/5 — I used to love this app… *2021-07-02, version 3.2.0* I loved it, until it completely stopped working. I use an Apple 12-Pro, and would love to have Fresh Air back on it. Unfortunately, awhile back it started failing to update, leaving me with the forecast for the day before. That was good compared to what I now see— a screen, attractively graduated from orange to blue, with no data on it at all. If I remove the app from my iPhone altogether and reload it (which I’ve done multiple times, including twice in the past couple of hours), I get an error message: “Weather Error— Sorry, we failed to retrieve the weather data”. [Strangely enough, the weather radar map does seem to work, and focuses down on my home address. So something is getting through.] I’m using another weather app instead. It’s inferior in every way but one. It works. ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2021-06-30, version 3.2.0* It used to be lovely and helpful but now it is a dud with zero communication from the developers. Bummer. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on my iPhone 8 *2021-06-29, version 3.2.0* My husband has an iPhone 6 and it works great. Not on my 8. Once you start scrolling, the time of day disappears so not at all helpful. Have tried deleting app and reloading, but no joy. Love the concept. Update: He’s got a new iPhone SE and it doesn’t work at all. Tried emailing their “contact us” for help and the email got bounced back undeliverable. Really?! Guess they are no longer supporting this app. Kind of gives you a clue when you see they haven’t updated it in 4 years...😒 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — No longer works *2021-07-07, version 3.2.0* This app used to be my “go to” place for weather. However, a few month ago it stopped loading weather data altogether. Perhaps it has been abandoned? ### 5/5 — 🌈🔍(๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)👍.｡· *✨ *2021-05-11, version 3.2.0* great for finding the weather for exact time you are interested in... by example one such for instance ☝🏼🕶💭 .•🤔❓ our MrEMann is going out at 3:57 am... after a quick check on fresh air he knows he should throw on a poncho as well as his burglar uniform and mask ~ cos it's gonna rain from 3:58 till after he get arrested for stealing Milk!•. #ready for everything ### 5/5 — Clean and fluid. *2020-04-12, version 3.2.0* On opening my weather folder recently I realised over the years I’d collected 12 weather apps. I got rid of all but three, Dark Sky, Wunderground and Fresh Air. Fresh Air has a design and feel of an Apple product, aesthetically clean and wonderfully clutter free giving you exactly what’s needed and no more. Only one bug, the time off day stays static so disappears as you scroll to the right, surely that can’t be right? ### 5/5 — Thank you and 2 problems *2020-04-11, version 3.2.0* Thank you. Excellent idea. Like very much that there are no advertising! For iPad Problem 1: the time stays at the current time and disappears on the left. Problem 2: leave feedback function does not work. ### 5/5 — Not accurate in prediction *2019-12-18* My app don’t show anymore the time at temperature graphic. ### 5/5 — I love freshair *2019-12-11, version 3.2.0* I love your weather app. I think it’s the best weather app out there. One of the last iOS update broke your app (the time of day doesn’t follow you when you scroll) is there any way you could fix this? I’d be willing to pay. Or if you’re no longer developing the app, would you sell it? ### 5/5 — Favourite weather app for seeing how day progresses *2019-09-29, version 3.2.0* Love it ### 5/5 — Best user experience *2019-01-30, version 3.2.0* Beautiful visual interface accurate, intuitive to use one of the best out there 5 stars ### 5/5 — Stunning *2018-12-01, version 3.2.0* The most beautiful way to check the weather. ### 5/5 — Fresh air *2018-11-27, version 3.2.0* Great app love how you can scroll hourly to see the weather. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
