Solid but room for improvement
The app works just as advertised and is worth the dollar. For me it would have been 5 stars if the app would automatically locate the nearest airport base on your location and change the metar automatically instead of manually doing it every time I land at a different airport. Hopefully they can update the app and it be perfect!

Thank you for your review! I will look into adding this feature, but it’ll take some time to properly implement. Thank you very much for your recommendation!
Display issue
I love the app and it may just be me but the widget is not fully displayed. What I mean is on my lock screen it is cutoff short and the rest is behind a “…”. I also can’t choose a bigger option and tapping it only refreshes it so I can’t see the full thing. It’s probably still being worked on so it’s not a big deal.

New UPDATE live! Problem Fixed! Thank you for your review! I appreciate your recommendation, Apple strictly limits the sizing of widgets on the lockscreen. But I found a few solutions! Thank you!
LOVE THIS
What a great and effective app. As a pilot of course I always need to know weather for any preflight and I love having this saved to my Home Screen for readily available access. Great app highly recommend!
Excellent
Works great! Have a full page dedicated to 5 airports! Would recommend!
Works Great does what you’d expect
I love using it for flights haven’t had any issues worth the dollar lol
Keeps METARs updated
The app works great it’s simple and keeps the metars updated I just starting my pilot training so this is a nice easy tool that is definitely worth the dollar
Ai Slop
Clearly “vibe coded” by Claude. Doesn’t work.
Response from developer
Nothing in the app was “Vibe Coded” by Claude. I’m sorry you feel that it was necessary to leave a 1 star review. Apple highly throttles Background Refreshes on newly downloaded apps. Did you allow 24 hours? Was your phone on Power Saving Mode? What didn’t work for you? Reach out and let’s fix this! verticalweightbalance@gmail.com
Awesome metar widget!
I have this widget on my iPad Home Screen. Currently working on my instrument rating and this is super helpful. Great idea, awesome app! Highly recommend
Super helpful!
This is a fantastic app that made getting all ,y aviation weather quick and easy! I love being able to add the widget to my lock screen for quick access. No more having to open apps to find my airport and look at the weather. It’s available right away!
metar at a glance!
app is amazing, i set up my metar widget on the lock screen so i can see it the instant i tap my phone. the app keeps the metar information updated at the top of every hour sometimes even sooner depending when the metar is issued
Works great, super easy
The app works great! It’s super easy to use and you only have to set it up once, after that you can see the current metar just by clicking on your phone. 10/10 would recommend
