### 1/5 — Terrible predictions!!!

*2026-04-26, version 6.1.401*

End of week 4/25/26 calling for thunderstorms and rain. You know how much rain we got? ZERO!! The wind direction all week 100% wrong!! How can I get a job for this weather service? Even I can be this AWFUL!! WHAT. THE. HECK???

### 5/5 — Easy app

*2026-03-26, version 6.1.401*

Great forecasts!

### 1/5 — Update needed

*2026-03-16, version 6.1.401*

Terrible since last update. Weather map needs to go back to where it was. Now useless. Looking for another weather app.

### 1/5 — What the heck??

*2026-02-21*

Earlier this week, every day, forecast was for “rain / snow “ mix on 2/22/26. Now, on Friday, 2/20/26, this app is calling for 5 INCHES on Sunday, 2/26?  I’ve put up with the predicted temps being wrong on a daily basis, but this is AWFUL!! WHAT. THE. HECK???

### 5/5 — Justin is Back!!!

*2025-03-22, version 5.17.508*

Awesome !!!

### 5/5 — BEST WEATHER APP.

*2025-01-18, version 5.17.508*

This Weather App. Is the best !!! Accurate, 
Descriptive and complete!!

### 5/5 — Fox Weather app

*2024-09-27, version 5.15.409*

I use this app more than any other app I have on my phone. Great to have. Always provides me with updates whenever necessary. Very dependable  app to have on your device. I wouldn’t be without it.

### 4/5 — weather rant

*2023-04-09, version 5.7.301*

Ok here's my little rant. In 2023 how do we NOT know if it's going to rain tomorrow? We have satellites all around the planet. We have access to current temperatures all over the world, detailed topography, wind speeds and directions, cloud cover (speed and direction), humidity levels, ocean tides. Virtually anything that can affect the weather. Not only that, we have decades of historical data, so we know the trends. I don't blame the weather forecasters so much. We're only human. But why hasn't someone written software that can do the job accurately. We have more computing power than ever, but forecasting isn't getting significantly better. And when it rains, why is the timing always off? If your prediction is consistently off by an hour or two, make the necessary adjustment.

### 1/5 — LOUSY PREDICTIONS!!!

*2023-03-27*

App called for consistent rain on 3/26/23 & 3/27/23. 

NOT EVEN CLOSE!!!  Just cloudy!!  Piece of crap!!!!

### 1/5 — Needs to be updated with the newer iPhones.

*2018-10-17, version 4.7.400*

It worked great with older iPhones but since I have gotten a XS the back ground screen makes it hard to see the actual weather. I had tried to send message but received no reply.
