Use a Fascist Map

Hello Weather uses a stupid map with renaming of Gulf of Mexico and Lake Ontario. Ended subscription due to their bootlicking.

From an academic.

I appreciate a privacy policy respecting the spirit of privacy law.

Superb

Cleanest interface. Simplified excellence without all the noise others have. Quickly shows what I need with detail just one click away

So Good

The interface is very well designed to clearly show the information you’ll need and give easy access to other information you might want. And their support is superb!

Love hello weather

Great weather app without the massive personal data theft…what more can you ask for? If you don’t know what I’m talking about ask an AI murder not what most weather apps do.

slay

it’s slay. very slay

Greedy

The dev’s are getting greedier and greedier, and now they’ll blame on either Apple or Source Data providers for “fees increase”. Used to be nice app, not worth anymore because of the greed.

Best weather app

Excellent weather app accurate informative everything you need on the go 👍👍👍👍👍

Useless

Can’t even use the widget without paying. First thing you see when you open the app is them begging for a subscription

No widgets in free version

Really nice forecast graphics but I primarily downloaded the app for a home screen widget since my local forecast app doesn’t have any widgets. I would gladly pay a small one time fee for a widget but there’s no way I’m paying for a subscription for this. Deleted the app.

Amazing

do yourself a favor and just buy a lifetime subscription. you get access to a ton of different weather sources and it feels like a must have for a weather nerd with tons of different layouts really cool app icons and just simple clear weather widgets.

Awful

I don’t know how this app works elsewhere, but it is absolutely useless in Guanajuato, Guanajuato, Mexico. It’s never once been anything close to accurate. I’ve cancelled my subscription.

Was terrific. Now gives erroneous display of thunderclouds

Not sure what happened but in the past two minutes nths the thunderclouds that bring heavy rain don’t display on the map,even when it is raining. It used to be great.

My favorite weather app

I really like this weather app since it gives you options to select the data source and compare forecasts. The graphics are slick and the customization lets you see what matters most to you.

Awesome!!!

I had given up already on the topic of weather apps after trying lots of them (nearly everything popular and professionally looking) over the past decade and had settled with using the Apple built in solution.
But somehow this app occurred in my App Store recommendations.

I’m blown away. It is kinda minimalistic in very positive way and usability seems to be very well and clever thought through. The design follows the iOS standards (lots of competitors try to reinvent the wheel here and fail in my opinion) and the information is presented clean and focused on the absolute essentials you want to know each time when opening a weather app. But more details are always available when needed. And absolutely brilliant is the possibility to switch the data source with one tap. You can compare forecasts from all kinds of providers easily. Outstanding idea for a feature! And as icing on the cake there is here and there a sense of humour built into the app communication.

It looks for me like someone put a lot of heart into coding this app.

I would probably buy a lifetime subscription if there would be one available.

Thank you and please keep up the good work!

Response from developer

Hello! Thank you for this — reviews like yours keep a small team going. And good news: a lifetime purchase already exists! It's on the upgrade screen next to the monthly/yearly options, and the Help/Support screen can surface it even if you're already subscribed. Cheers!

Not helpful without subscription

Basically gives you the right now weather without any options to do anything else until you buy the subscription

Subscription required for use

Cool concept but every single feature is hidden behind the subscription. The base app without subscription uses apple weather, yet has about 5% of the data that apple wether provides. Requires pro to even see wind speed. Makes zero sense.

No accurate

No accurate

Happy with the app

Tells me the weather in an easy to check manner

I love this app

Hello Weather is without question the best weather app I have used. The interface is clean, fast and thoughtfully designed making it easy to find exactly what you need without the unnecessary clutter. The forecasts are reliable and the app strikes the perfect balance between simplicity and detailed weather info.

What sets this app apart is Trevor, the developer who listens to user input and suggestions and replies to your emails almost immediately.

If you are looking for a weather app that is accurate, beautifully designed and backed by a developer who truly cares about his app and his users, Hello Weather is an easy 5 Star recommendation!
