### 2/5 — No longer accurate

*2023-12-01*

This app had been pretty good for a while but for several months now accuracy of both current local conditions and forecasting has been consistently poor. Back to Weather Underground…

### 1/5 — Boo to the latest update

*2023-07-19*

Been using this app for years..last update caused the radar to open in a browser and it’s chuggy and completely useless now..unfortunately I’ll have to find something else :( fix the radar and put it back in the app please!

### 3/5 — Drop down location

*2022-11-26, version 5.9.1*

Since updating to iOS 16 I can no longer change location using the drop down menu. Hard to plan out of town activities.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2022-08-14, version 5.9.1*

This app gave all the relevant information I needed but after a few tasteless ads appeared within the app itself I couldn’t keep it.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2022-07-30, version 5.9.1*

Gross disgusting misleading ads pollute the page

### 1/5 — Awful

*2022-04-10, version 5.8.1*

Doesn’t even know you’re not at same place, even though you’ve traveled lots of different places, and even when you add place you’re at now it still just gives weather at place it had. 
Worst app and weather ever.
