App crashes a lot

Not sure what’s happening but this app has started crashing quite frequently. Happens randomly while scrolling through the 7 day forecast or toggling between the Home Screen and map.

Forecast literally change from hour to hour

This app is useless. The forecast will show rain at 4 PM, 4 PM will arrive and no rain, then it will say it's going to rain at 5 PM, 5 PM arrives, no rain. And on and on and on. It is impossible to plan out your day or your week based on this app's prediction of the weather. Often it will also show that it's raining when it is not at all

Inconsistent

This app regularly provides inaccurate weather reports and radar for my area. For instance, when it has rained the past couple days the app said “cloudy” for my location and the “Wundermap” was also inaccurate.

NEED WIDGETS

I like your accuracy but I need a widget for the lockscreen and/or Today View.

My favorite!

My go-to for weather, anywhere in the world. I’ve used it for years.

No few points on graphs

Not being able to view dew points on the graph is annoying. Desktop version and even mobile website version has it, but not the app. Lame.

Still Constantly Crashing

The iPadOS app still consistently crashes after viewing the weather map or extended forecast windows and then closing it. This has been going on for years after multiple reinstalls and updates of both iOS, iPadOS and the app. Please fix it.

Inaccurate

Over the last year this app has become completely inaccurate. Obviously this app is using an AI model to run its predictions and has gone from one of the best to one of the worst. Two day predictions used to be very accurate but now it changes hour to hour. Delete.

Excellent weather app

The layout and feel of this app are way better than the TWC app even though they are run by the same company. I like the fact that there is no future radar that in the TWC app is actually forced upon you before seeing the past radar. I find the future radars are largely gimmicky and look almost cartoonish. The 10 day forecast is very nice how you can see exactly when during the days the highest chance of precipitation is forecasted at a glance on a linear graph. The advertisements while always present seem to be minimally invasive. Mostly this is all my personal preference of course, but if you’re searching for an alternative weather app I would give this one a try.

My favorite Wx App

I have been using this app since before the name change. As a former pilot I enjoy having the level of weather detail and knowledge at my fingertips.

A Mislabeled Random Number Generator

I cannot tell you the number of times that their precipitation estimates have been off by a FACTOR OF 10! Not days in the future. No, that would be an excusable occasional error. Just hours away, and they are so ridiculously wrong. I would hope that people get fired over things like that, but they seem to get promoted.

They just changed my rain forecast for the next few hours from 2.70 inches to 0.01 inches. Nice to have a 270X error range. This app would be better as a random number generator.

Autoplay video ads are annoying

Decent weather app but the incessant autoplay video ads are so annoying as to make it unusable.

Gerry

I’ve had this app for ages. It’s precise, and accuracy is important in weather, especially today as global warming is turning our world off its axis. Terrific app!

Good forecasts

Still no dewpoint in the app. Why do I have to go to the web to get this?

Terrible

This app can’t predict the weather 30 minutes in the future. At noon 100%rain chance 1.6 inches . At 4:00pm 30%chance .05 inches,at 5: 00pm 100%chance .6 inches. No rain fell at all , how do you make plans with junk like this? NWS said 30% all day long and were correct.

Doesn’t work anymore

With the last update to Tahoe 26.1.2, a blank screen comes up when I try to run the app and I have to use “force quit” to get the screen back.

Forecast Missing Dew Point

My only complaint is that the 7 day forecast shows “feels like” and humidity but living in MN, I’m more interested in knowing the dew point for the week

bad

not only they take your money But..ads COVER the screen ..luck to see a sliver of weather . shameful

Keeps crashing and closing on me.

Keeps crashing and closing on me for a couple weeks now. And why no widget yet?

Vacation

I’ve been all over the US and several countries in Europe, what a great way to start my day knowing exactly what the weather will bring.
