User reviews

was much better before recent changes

I am not happy about giving this app two stars... it was five stars for simplicity and thoroughness until the new version which is busy, cluttered, and the menus are unclear. what used to be simple and intuitive now takes much more study.

To add insult to injury, options that used to be free are now only available with a subscription model. I am going to be looking for a different app for Weather. I can understand why an app like this might charge an initial fee and maybe an optional update fee every few years. But like many others, I really hate monthly or yearly subscriptions and refuse to be involved with them with very few exceptions. Please consider restoring the original version as an option and maybe charging a fixed fee for it– like something under $10. You can still make money. You can sell hundreds of thousands that way. that's traditionally how apps worked.

Terrible Update

I hate the new update the radar is not user-friendly and looks like something a professional meteorologist would use to do their job and not something for the average Joe. I removed this app from my phone because it’s so terrible

No connection when you need it

Servers issues? Who know. All i know s it won’t work. Garbage

Weak app

Rain aware has gone from mediocre to awful. No clear information and too many obscure symbols and useless icons.

Use to like this

I hate the new layout. It’s hard to find anything. I usually just use the basic weather app that came with my phone now, instead of getting frustrated with this app
