Unfortunately, doesn’t start on my iphone

Not working

Not working on iPhone

Nice design

It reads easy and serves my needs well. The app on ios has some bugs. For example, if you switch between two locations, bot all data refreshes. You have to repeat the new location selection to complete the data refresh.

Not accurate or helpful

The daily forecast and hourly do not match. Example being the daily telling me rain is 79%. But the hourly is telling it will sunny all day and into the next day. So which do I believe? The daily or the hourly?

Great App Before it Crashes

I’m finding this app crashes and freezes up frequently

False Mapping

The Gulf of Mexico is still listed. The name was changed over a year ago it’s “The Gulf of America”

Soooooo

I purchased a Vevor weather station, set it up, registered for a weather underground account, and synchronized my station with weather underground using the station id and station key.
Do they allow me to see my own weather station data? No. I assume they want me to subscribe, but as long as they’re using my data, I should have access to it on their app. 👎👎👎

Never ever accurate

One minute it says its sun shining the next its storming and says its supposed to be clear. I don’t expect it to be perfect. But this is a normal occurrence.

They do great!

This app has screwed me over more times than it’s helped me. They flirt that we’re going to get rain, then it doesn’t happen. This is hands down the least consistent weather app.

Location!

Not thrilled that I can’t enter the closest location in the app! San Jose is a large area and being on the SW side the temps can be quite different than SJC area. I think the website has more options though I can’t view it right now to know for sure.

Not happy

The daily does not match the hourly at all also they want you to turn your location on all the time

Nope

Named after a terrorist organization. Don’t use this app.

Adblock App causes this app to crash

Adblock consistently causes the “Weather Underground” App to crash on both my iPads and phones.
I’ve tested it at least 10 times: AdBlock running, “Weather Undeground” app crashes
Adblock NOT running: “Weather Underground” NEVER CRASHES.

There’s your culprit ..

Sells your info to third parties

Like most apps these days, the app itself is secondary. The main purpose is to collect data from your devices and sell it to third parties.
Uninstalled

Fix freezing on app open, otherwise good

An app with a paid subscription should not freeze on opening so often.

Crashing/ Inaccurate and Super Disrated

This App Always Crashes and When I go to a different city on your app, I have to Reset the program every time I want to see the forecast, and air quality and constantly Glitches. This forecast is very inaccurate too. When there’s a thunderstorm on your forecast, There is nothing. And you keep delaying Your weather symbols. It does not say “ Supercell “ Instead of “ Heavy Thunderstorm/ Heavy Rainfall”. That’s Not very good.

Can’t stand the latency

I thought this was better than the Apple weather only to find this requires a change of location then back to my normal town to see the actual for current conditions…not a high bar to clear. Is it really too much to ask for a freakin weather app to update WHEN YOU LAUNCH THE APP???

The worst

Worst weather app in USA. 1 star is way too generous. They shadow ban my reviews too so I’m curious if this will show up. I am a farmer and grow crops and use this app for my business which is my livelihood. Do not use this app unless you live in opposite land. 100% chance of rain means 0% chance

Hard to provide feedback.

I’ve been using this app for a while. Overall, I’ve enjoyed it. But occasionally I encounter issues or notice something that isn’t working properly. The app/company doesn’t provide an effective means for providing feedback from customers on issues. Their system requires that I provide them my personal email and an information before I can try to help them. All I want to do is send a picture of the issue and provide a brief comment with no personal info tied to it.

One of the recent problems I noticed is that their air quality gauge is not move in line with the numerical air quality value that they provide.
