Unnecessary permission needed

My hometown is quite fixed and I want to know the location of the weather of particular cities whose locations are also pretty fixed on earth so asking for location permission to everyone is really not necessary. I cannot even open the app without granting location permission that I do not grant to any app in fact, my location is always switched off. I hope to be able to use this app someday.

App opens only once every 5min

31/12/2025 update: Weather loads now but if I close the app and open again, it keeps showing a blank white screen. I have to wait 5min and then open the app for it to load and show weather. Very annoying. This doesnt happen on your Android app then why on Apple??

Original review: Not showing weather for the past couple of months. Weather for Lucknow, UP keeps loading forever.

Did not get any data

App did not show anything in Jaipur, just spinning for 30 seconds. Search did not work as well. This was on iPhone pro on Airtel

Location compulsion

Can you make the app so that it works with the location settings off. Why is it compulsory to switch on location for the app to work? Also u can add an alert option for weather warnings.

Great Predictions but Needs UI Improvements and Speed Optimization

I personally felt a bit confused while logging into the Mausam app. I was expecting to receive an OTP on my mobile, but there was no prompt or clear message indicating that the OTP was being sent to my email instead. This caused confusion.

While the app does provide fairly accurate weather predictions, I found that many of the options/features are not working properly and take too long to load. The user experience could be significantly improved with better guidance during login and faster data fetching.

I hope future updates address these issues because the core functionality seems promising.

Decent. Can be improved

# Improve look and feel. Icons, fonts and colour
# Allow selection Location with increasing radius.
# Allow choosing multiple locations.

Pathetic user experience when it counts the most

The sign up function fails to work. A mandatory field for State and District for user registration is not enterable using for the iOS version of the app.
There are validation errors and the app is made like a college first year student’s pet project.

Very useful app

Provides rain updates with in 20km range. To
Understand how the alert system of this app works, Go to settings —> rain alert—> Information icon (i)

Location

The app asks to use location always even if I am not using the app which is an unwanted thing , see to this , using our location always will drain the user battery

App takes longer to load content

App taking longer time to load the content to show. Sometimes it will not show the information at all. App needs to be fixed out of all such major issues. UI is also not promising. I doubt how frequently the weather info is being updated promptly.

Not working anymore

Not showing weather for the past couple of months. Weather for Lucknow, UP keeps loading forever.

Not loading inspite of repeated attempt.

May be this is a good initiative by GoI, but issues like loading and clicking the options does not function.
It needs a detailed testing. As per description, the app appears fantastic but first… it should open

This application is not accessible at all for visually impaired people. If possible, work should be done to make this application accessible, otherwise this application is very good.

Requesting a Feature.

I have newly installed app on my device . Like how government is investing in app development. I would love to see a widget for this app , a simple new looking widget ui with nice icons tells about weather update realtime , widget goes warning with warning icon and reminder to leave early from office incase if rain is about to start with in a hour.

Need widget

Appreciate the app. Please develop a widget that can be used in screens rather than opening the app every time. You can add more info such as pollution, UV index to make it more informative.

Average UX, sensible suggestions

So Bangalore is a super rainy place at times, the rains can be patchy at times, it might be raining in one main road and it might be totally dry barely a km away. I like that this app rightly gives an estimate about the rain timings and intensity. It is sort of right, moreover it’s a nice app from government agencies which are known for their poor sense of design but at the same time, it does the job it’s supposed to do.

Needs upgrade

Data is not dynamic. Refresh does not get upto date information. Many locations are not covered. UI can be better.

Apple’s built-in weather app is better looking.

1. My location is not listed
2. Weather indicated does not have value and instead shows “- -“
3. The grass in the background is ugly
4. Unfriendly user experience
5. Alerts should show on the top and not in the menu
6. Adding Multiple locations is not available. Instead uses device location or the selected city
7. Couldn’t find Air Quality Index
8. Hourly Weather Forecast needs to be among the basic features but seems to be missing. At least I couldn’t find it because of the UI

I am trying to give you constructive criticism for improvement by being critical, and not trying to shame the app.

Thanks!
