But a few suggestions… *2025-02-22* I love the 8-bit vibe of this app. But here are a few suggestions: - main index (scrollable temp, air quality, forecast, etc): allow uses to decide what to display and the order in which they are displayed. For example, I have little need for an air quality or UV index, given where I live. - add a weather icon legend under the gear menu: like, why does a rainbow signify “fair” weather? In winter, no less. - add a way to view dew point, wind gusts, and barometric pressure. In Carrot you just tap the day’s temp and a separate screen opens which allows one to view the above measurements all together (I use their Dark Sky copy for my layout…I miss Dark Sky!). In fact, it would also be nice to also be able to add these separate data points onto the scrollable index. For example, I could choose to first see the temp, swipe to see the dew point, swipe again to see the forecast, etc etc. I’m thinking of trying to figure out how to buy (or build?) a Pixel Weather Station…is there someone who builds them for you? But I do love the look of this thing. Sorta wish I could mod the colors, but no biggie. ### 3/5 — F to C *2021-09-07, version 5.3.3* How to change Fahrenheit to Celsius ? ### 3/5 — ipad pro无法显示在主页面 *2020-04-21, version 3.10.2* 之前可以在第一页上面直接显示天气 现在一直是无法加载 不是断网不是没网络 卸载重新安装也没有用 哎 ### 5/5 — Fantastic App *2020-03-14, version 3.8.0* I love this app. It’s minimalistic and to the point. I love the 8 bit theme too! Weather is accurate as well. ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2020-02-11* The only thing I would like is for the music to automatically be on when you open the app. It shuts off after awhile and you have to go into the menu to turn it back on. **Developer response:** Thanks for the music 😄 ### 4/5 — cute app! but just a couple of requests... *2020-01-31* i love the retro feel to this and the weather is pretty accurate :) it would make it totally better if it had the sunrise and sunset times (like on the default ios weather app) and a dark mode for the widget. this is also just a preference wise thing for me, but it’d be nice if there was an option for an hourly weather status on the widget (take hello weather’s widget setup for example). other than that, the developer really did a nice job with this app! totally recommend it :D **Developer response:** Sunrise and sunset added in new update, also for the moon 😄 ### 5/5 — Great App! *2020-01-24, version 3.8.0* A night theme, or dark mode would be awesome I’d possible. But this is a awesome app, love the 8 bit design! ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2019-12-26, version 3.8.0* 😀 ### 5/5 — Neat way to get the weather!! *2019-12-08, version 3.8.0* Fun intuitive little app to mess around with. ### 5/5 — 很棒 *2019-12-02, version 3.8.0* 很棒、很喜歡 ### 5/5 — Very cute. *2019-11-20* I really like this, it’s super cute and ALMOST does everything better than Sunny Weather, except it doesn’t tell me when the sun sets or rises. If it told me when sunrise and sunset are, then it’d be pretty much perfect. **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback. Will add sunrise and sunset feature soon (Update: Sunrise and sunset added in new version, also for the moon) ### 5/5 — REVIEW. *2019-10-27, version 3.7.0* Cute. I love my new little buddy!!! Thanks. Great App. Love the colors. ### 4/5 — Love it but... *2019-10-21* I literally love pixel style. So bought this with in a second haha. I think the one person mentioned a weather map. Untill now iv used “the weather channel” And that has a map u can watch the radar move in and how the forcast will play out. I think thats wat he means Basically “the weather channel” In this pixel format. Then 100%. Still love this app tho **Developer response:** Thanks for your feedback:) I checked ‘The weather channel’ and its ‘Maps’ feature. It has many detail weather information. Will find some useful functions and add in future. ### 5/5 — 少少意見 *2019-08-14, version 3.7.0* Widget按顯示較少資料時，會阻擋字體，不美觀。 Widget增加兩個地區天氣資料，會實用很多。 添加其他地區不能隨意排列，希望加上排列位置。 搜索地區時，在地圖上可直接按住地圖位置添加地區，不用打字，更方便。 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2021-09-10, version 5.3.3* I purchased this specifically because it said it would work on my watch. It won’t even open on the watch. Money badly spent. I’m mad disappointed. ### 1/5 — It won’t load *2021-07-17, version 5.3.3* I wanted to love this, but it literally just sits there with no weather info and never loads. Am I doing something wrong or did I just pay $5 for an app that doesn’t work? ### 1/5 — Crashes on Apple Watch series 1 *2021-01-14, version 5.3.1* App launches, a spinner appears, then crashes. It will not load on my watch running watchOS 6.3 ### 1/5 — 😕😕😕 *2020-05-07, version 3.10.3* 天氣地區定位超慢，去到某區走都未定到個區天氣，bad ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2020-04-19, version 3.10.2* I thought the app would have a watch complication that I could see on my watch face in order to use this I have to select the app on my watch. Not what I wanted wasted my money. ### 1/5 — Bad *2019-03-09, version 3.5.0* Soooooo badddddd I just use my regular phone whether ### 1/5 — Where is the Air Quality Data Coming From? *2019-01-28* There is no indication in the app where the air quality data is coming from. Unless the sensors are at my house (which they are not) then there is no way they can be providing data that is relevant to my location. It’s absolutely essential to be transparent about where the sensors are because particulate data and the other gases that they display in the app can be very different within small geographical areas due to numerous factors. **Developer response:** Apologize for the inconvenience, the AQI data from weather.com based on your/selected location. It is real time data but not so accurate as sensors displayed. ### 1/5 — За что? *2018-07-11, version 3.0.2* Скачал, попробывал, удалил. Вроде бесплатное приложение. Теперь списали деньги. ? ### 1/5 — 體驗極差 *2018-02-16, version 2.4.0* Widget的aqi有數值但軟體本身都是0，重整幾遍都無用，apple watch也只有顯示溫度，其他資料都沒有，數據資料與中央氣象局及環保署都有誤差，不知數據資料源自哪邊。 ### 2/5 — Could be better but the app is not fun *2020-03-23, version 3.8.0* I had this app and now it’s boring to use and it has been a bit slow ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 預報精準備 *2025-09-11, version 7.0.3* 感覺預報不太準，常常寫著下雨卻整天都是好天氣，參考性不夠，但介面很不錯，資訊也很完整 ### 5/5 — 請問中號小工具問題 *2024-11-13, version 7.0.3* 請問中號小工具的款式能不能考慮新增 星期一到星期日降雨機率之類的，或者是X時陰天 X時晴天這樣 ### 5/5 — The Weather That Keeps On Giving *2023-02-19* I got this weather app because of its cool retro vibe. It looks like the love child of Prodigy and a Nintendo. It dares you not to take it seriously, but then you find it does a great job of telling you the weather. Then add in that it has all sorts of features, information, and hidden gems. What’s not to love? Seriously, I just want to live inside of it. **Developer response:** Thank you for your favorable review of the application. In future updates, we will add more interesting elements and features to it. ### 5/5 — Humidity watch complication *2023-01-13, version 6.0.2* Hi, love the app! Could you please add humidity as a watch complication. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Gran aplicación *2022-12-24* Agreguen el idioma español, combinación de colores y de iconos para la aplicación **Developer response:** Bien, gracias por su feedback, se programará la adición del español más tarde. ### 5/5 — Really nice design *2022-06-15* I love it! **Developer response:** Thanks ❤️ ### 5/5 — Very cool app *2021-01-03, version 5.3.1* I love the pixel theme in this app,Its a very cool app. ### 5/5 — 位置切换 *2020-10-04* 位置切换真的是太麻烦了 我希望能添加一个随着地区的变化然后自动变化的 不像现在第一个锁定后那个就没办法改变然后自己又去手动选择新的地方 望大哥参考 **Developer response:** 第一个位置选项确实是自动获取当前地址，需要开启定位权限给 App 即可。然后在 GPS 有信号的地方点那个刷新的圈圈就可以获取当前位置了。 ### 5/5 — 加入小工具 卻顯示無法載入 *2020-04-08, version 3.9.0* 從開機還是一樣 到底是為什麼啊啊啊😭 ### 5/5 — 可以自己更改配色嗎 *2020-03-19, version 3.8.0* 如題，希望可以新增夜間不刺眼的配色～～ --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
