### 4/5 — Wonderful app... poor customer service

*2023-05-30*

I LOVE weather nerd. It worked perfectly until it was time to update my subscription. I paid- actually twice. Still can't get the app. I deleted it and tried again. No luck. The developer does not respond to requests for assistance. Apple tried to help as well. No luck. This is an epic fail for such a splendid product. Why be mediocre with an excellent product?

The app seems to be on the blitz again

### 2/5 — Please fix the app!

*2023-05-09, version 3.9.62*

This is a great app but it no longer works correctly. Please fix it! There really isn’t a substitute. It does a great job of allowing you to quickly visualize the weather for the day.

### 2/5 — Weather nerd not up to par

*2023-04-25, version 3.9.62*

This used to be a great app but it doesn’t work well anymore

### 3/5 — Oops only shows details in Canada for 3 days

*2023-04-19, version 3.9.62*

Strange

### 2/5 — Ok, but not accurate-keeps showing yesterday as today

*2023-04-10*

Thought I’d give this app another try. It’s been less than a week after renewing my subscription-despite restarting, and doing all the normal stuff to re boot, keeps telling me the weather for yesterday as todays. Sadly tomorrows, which is todays(yeah, confusing), says it’s going to be 22 degrees colder and snowy….it’s morning and it’s already close to highly, 70+, from yesterday, completely blue sky's, ect. 
Sorry, too many other weather apps out there and no time to ask for help-nothing on app to help-moving on. I’d look for another app-especially if you are going to pay.

### 2/5 — Hmmm

*2023-01-02, version 3.9.62*

Can’t get the radar to work

### 3/5 — Sort of works

*2023-01-02, version 3.9.62*

Love the App but every few days I can’t open it.  The screen just goes black.  I have to delete and reinstall the app to get it to open, annoying.  Please fix this.

### 3/5 — Long in the tooth

*2022-12-31, version 3.9.62*

This once was a great weather app. Their daily forecast visualization is perfect for a glance and seeing what’s in store. Unfortunately since everything else is either outdated or not nearly as advanced the several years of neglecting this app are really showing now. 

I finally sunset it as my primary weather app today. Sad day indeed.

### 1/5 — No support no radar

*2022-12-13, version 3.9.62*

Support link doesnt work. Radar doesnt work. Please fix this or I am cancelling.

### 1/5 — Why does the radar no longer work?

*2022-10-15, version 3.9.62*

Used to love this app. Is it still supported?  If not supporting, it should be dropped from the App Store.

### 4/5 — Best weather app except…..

*2022-10-08, version 3.9.62*

It now shows me it’s going to be a low priority of -132 degrees.  We live in San Diego.  Better bring a jacket.

### 1/5 — There is no more support

*2022-10-07, version 3.9.62*

The last update was two years ago. The weather map provides no indication of storms or anything. The map is there, but there is no overlay of anything. I followed every suggestion and nothing would make it work. There is no way to contact the developer because their site does not exist. Don’t waste your money.

### 3/5 — Radar Did Not Work

*2022-09-06, version 3.9.62*

Radar did not work and cannot get refund. Last app update was 2 years ago so may not work on your device.

### 3/5 — Radar still not working on iPhone

*2022-08-28, version 3.9.62*

What happened and why have updates fixed this issue? As of 8/28 app is crashing even after restarting phone😜.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work!

*2025-01-04, version 3.9.62*

Waist of money!

### 1/5 — Paid for subscription app doesn’t work

*2024-12-23, version 3.9.62*

Paid for subscription app doesn’t work. Subscription shows up on Apple Store was charged for it but app doesn’t recognize it. There is no way to contact developer. Reached out to Apple but they couldn’t help.

### 1/5 — Don’t get this

*2023-05-02, version 3.9.62*

It hasn’t been updated in two years, some of the features no longer work because DarkSkyAPI was shut down by Apple. 

It’s not terrible, but the fact that they’re still charging money for an app that’s clearly abandoned is pretty crappy

### 1/5 — Disappointing - weather forecast details stop after next day

*2023-05-01, version 3.9.62*

Top rate

### 1/5 — No radar

*2023-05-01, version 3.9.62*

The radar does not work and the app has no way to access assistance

### 1/5 — No support

*2023-04-26, version 3.9.62*

I used to love this app. Then it stopped working. Doesn’t get fixed. No one cares.

### 1/5 — What broke?

*2023-04-25, version 3.9.62*

This used to be one of my top apps. At some point anything out three days broke. It has been broken for probably two months. Subscription cancelled. Maybe this will get fixed and I’ll reconsider.

### 1/5 — FIX RADAR

*2023-04-18, version 3.9.62*

Awesome app but my radar stopped working last year and nothing I do fixes it. Please fix the radar!!!!!!!!!

### 1/5 — Great Way To Check Weather!!

*2023-04-07, version 3.9.62*

This app was my favorite for a long long time. Lately it’s driving me crazy because it’s never got the right day. It’s always a day beh! Today is Friday but it thinks it’s Thursday!! I deleted it and reinstalled thinking that might fix it, but it hasn’t. I’m extremely disappointed and frustrated! :-()

### 1/5 — Today’s date

*2023-04-05, version 3.9.62*

There is a glitch with the Today’s date showing yesterday’s weather.

### 5/5 — Best Weather App out There

*2023-05-01*

I'm a longtime weather head who has tried every weather app I've come across. This is the best of the lot. There are a lot features that don't jump out at you at first, a part the interface's aesthetic. Its rich set of functionality surfaces over time. The presentation is beautiful and informative. Love being able to check what the weather was in the past and the "Nerd Out" page. And yes it has radar behind the "Hour" button. I have one suggestion: Please find a way to add Dew Point data on the Today and Tomorrow pages -- even if that means you have to bump Humidity. Thanks for the great app. One problem is that every now and then the weather data won’t load. That’s frustrating. But it’s only once in a while.

### 5/5 — Best weather app ever

*2023-04-27, version 3.9.62*

As a cyclist, I consider myself an amateur meteorologist. This app gives provides the best weather stats, displayed in the coolest way possible. I’m thankful that the developer’s sister can’t live without this app either, or it might not exist. Please stick around!

### 5/5 — Greatest weather app ever.

*2023-04-14, version 3.9.62*

Hope they keep updating it.

### 5/5 — The best, most accurate and detailed

*2023-03-15, version 3.9.62*

When I need concise, up to date, forecast info this is the app I turn to. Extremely stable and very reliable… well worth it

### 5/5 — Best I've used

*2022-12-15, version 3.9.62*

Nerd is accurate and the nerdy part is awesome. Goes beyond the typical weather app. I rely on it. Worth paying a few bucks for.

### 5/5 — Several great features

*2022-10-16, version 3.9.62*

I love that the app clearly compares today to yesterday, and tomorrow to today. The comparison of today to yesterday is especially useful, and is something that no other app highlights so well. I also love this app’s week view and the overall ease of navigation. I find it well worth the subscription.

### 5/5 — Great Weather App

*2022-08-10, version 3.9.62*

By far the best simple to read graphical forecast app in the app store from this users opinion.

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2022-08-02, version 3.9.62*

So much data and flexible in that you can design what you see to focus on your weather interests. Very comprehensive.

### 5/5 — This is the best!

*2022-07-23, version 3.9.62*

Easy to use, clear, simple... the best!

### 5/5 — How is this not a Top 5 app???

*2022-03-12, version 3.9.62*

Beat weather app on my phone…and I have downloaded a lot of them. This one has everything I need. Accurate and well laid out. Lots of info at a quick glance. Easily my go-to weather app!!
