### 2/5 — No Longer Useful

*2021-09-28, version 9.0.93*

This app was fairly accurate with weather but now seems to force you to purchase NOAA Weather and Radar or it doesn’t work. I’m uninstalling. What’s the point of even having this app if you buy the other one? They also do not have any privacy policies that are viewable.

### 2/5 — Not Reliable; Constantly Reverts Settings

*2021-04-30, version 9.0.93*

Aside from the fact that ANY weather forecast isn’t very reliable, the app itself is not reliable at all. 

When adjusting my settings for min and max temps, wind speed, etc. it constantly resets these to default after a couple days. I just want to be able to view the outlook for the next ride according to my saved settings. Unfortunately the app doesn’t preserve my preferences for more than a day or so and I’m constantly distracted by the misleading information. It’s very frustrating and I hope this is something the devs can fix with an update.

### 1/5 — Very inaccurate

*2021-04-29, version 9.0.93*

This app is not even accurate. It’s telling me I can ride my bike on days that’s suppose to rain. 4/28 it had told me to drive my car and it didn’t even rain all day. And today 4/29 it’s telling me to ride my motorcycle in Houston and it’s suppose to be 50% rain. Not even worth using. Just check your regular weather app.

### 5/5 — Use it everyday

*2021-01-28, version 9.0.93*

I use this app everyday. It’s the ipfirst app I open when I wake, as I ride my bike everyday.

### 4/5 — 1 Opportunity

*2020-04-20, version 9.0.93*

Great app, just needs sunrise and sunset times.

### 4/5 — Decent app

*2019-11-27, version 9.0.93*

The app is pretty good, I like that it breaks up the weather by hour, making it easier to plan. The icons are helpful for an “easy to glance at” decision making. The biggest issue I’ve had is the setting never seem to stay.

### 1/5 — Location

*2019-07-29, version 9.0.93*

The app suddenly doesn’t let me set my location and accept it-this app is  no help for me anymore

### 3/5 — 3 stars...maybe

*2019-06-18, version 9.0.93*

Decent app however when you customize the settings it always go back to the default settings later.

### 3/5 — Not currently working

*2018-09-21, version 9.0.8*

Not working with WiFi or data.

### 3/5 — Settings won’t stay

*2018-03-10, version 9.0.8*

I love the idea of this app. The way it is setup is great. The problem is, the settings won’t stay. I set it to let me know to ride my bike between 60 and 100 degrees. Every time I open the app, it has gone back to  the original setting of 40 to 95. I have no interest in riding in 40 degree weather. So, instead of just seeing the motorcycle and knowing I can ride, I still h e to open it up and look at each hour. So, I’m the end, it defeats the purpose.
