EXTREMELY inaccurate

The app shows current temp 91f, RH 54%. Wet bulb SHOULD be 78f, but the app shows 87f.

That’s just WRONG.

Extreme long loading times

Extreme long loading times

App sucks on iphone

This app would be good if it works on the iPhone, but it sucks the big D on the iPhone, the wet bulb pops up for a second and then it disappear

Used to work

I used to love this app. But now it won’t stay on to even see it. It blinks info and then goes blank. Thought of paying for it but others who have paid have same problem

app not working (paid)

app shows data for a second, then screen goes white.

Finally- wet bulb temp forecast

No nonsense…. Delivers wet bulb globe temp now and 4 day projections to plan outdoor activities….

Location is jumpy

The location keeps changing and I cannot manuallyy enter my zip

No longer usable

Ads made this app difficult to use, so I paid $6.99 and the app fails to load data. I’ve tried restating the app, uninstalling and reinstalling, waiting a few minutes, and it continues to preform unsatisfactory. The data will appear for a split second and then black out.

Great app

Great app

Bugs fixed, thanks!

Upgrading my 2-star review to 4 stars because the latest version fixed a crash problem and also the place search. It now works well to indicate heat risk where you are or elsewhere in the US (only). Upgrade to ad-free was worth it for me.

Easy to use. Good info for a runner…and a chemical engineer

I use this app to get the WBGT before I exercise outside, or when I’m spot checking the cooling capacity of a cooling tower

Doesn’t always work

Won’t pull up report every time

Does the job.

Nothing extraordinary, but it works as intended. I just wish there were less paywalled features.

Easy to use. Good info for a runner

I use this app to get the WBGT before I run/excercise outdoors on a hot day! The app is reliable and easy to use

Buggy

Wanted to like this app but it has issues. Entering cities in Alaska causes the app to crash. No matter what your city’s temperature is, even in the 60s, the heat zone shows in the “potentially dangerous” yellow range.

Response from developer

For some cold locations in Alaska, the National Weather Service doesn't regularly publish wet bulb temperatures, and we've updated the app to properly handle those locations. Thank you for your feedback.

Worked GREAT until a couple days ago?

This has been my go-to app for heat index/wet bulb temps — straight-forward, simple graphics, etc. But all of a sudden it “attempts” to retrieve the info but fails to provide it. I’ve done nothing different, it — just — stopped — working.
Major bummer.

Doesn’t work all the time

Will not give readings all the time.

Not working

Only worked and showed values 1 of 8 times I tried to use it. In a place with a strong signal but I just got the wheel of death 7/8 times.

No Reading

I can’t get the app to work.

Does Not Work

App was fine when I first got it. Now it never updates when asked to get latest readings. Just get the Pinwheel of Death. The app doesn’t help anyone if it doesn’t work.
