### 5/5 — Does the job!

*2024-06-03*

This app is fantastic! It provides clear yes/no/maybe recommendations for drying conditions when hanging clothes outside, with accurate, user-friendly local weather insights. People really need to hang their clothes outside more for all of its benefits (ex: fresh scent, money saving, mindfulness, etc), so it’s really awesome that this app is available out there

### 1/5 — Ad heavy and lacking useful detail

*2023-08-30*

To be fair, this is billed as a single-issue weather app. However, it appears to give a constant forecast of “no rain for the next nine hours”, it won’t update and the video ads are frequent and intrusive. Not particularly useful, sorry.

### 3/5 — Same every time

*2023-03-13*

No matter what the weather temperature wind etc it has only ever said “maybe. Hang lightweight items…..” so todays washing including jeans has been out for 5 hours and dry!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2023-02-21*

All the useful info to help dry washing in one place.

### 4/5 — Location not working

*2022-12-15*

Just happened recently. I apparently live in the North Pacific Ocean now. I tried to change to the correct location and the app has reverted back. Please fix as I use this app regularly.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2022-10-29*

I’ve found this app very helpful so far. But it is very early days for me using it
