4 me always right

I can count on weather bug to always have the right weather for wherever I am. It amazes the peeps I know. You should try weather bug to be amazed too!

Quality is dropping

Lately the radar hasn’t been that accurate and today proved it 100%. Huge massive storm was heading right for me and it didn’t show on the app. I go inside a restaurant to eat and minutes later we get hit by a massive hail storm. And still nothing on radar. Not sure what’s up but this let me down so much. I’ll check the car tomorrow in daylight for hail damage.

Good App

I paid for the premium subscription back when it first launched but now I can’t find it anywhere. The basic service is Good Also

Ms crissy

I love WeatherBug. So accurate Thank you

Great App!

I use this app every day. It’s accurate, easy to navigate and reliable. All my friends use it, too. Not paid for this review. Fantastic app, 10/10, highly recommend!

Temps Inaccurate, staff argumentative

My last review was deleted but here’s the gist. For years temperatures were most often as much as 10-20°F below real. I know. I have a weather station properly installed and working plus I monitor temps at 2 other locations on my property. When putting this kind of review I always get told to let them know via email but when I do they argue with me that I don’t have the means to prove it and say the temperatures ARE correct. Lately there have been instances of accuracy but only in the last couple months. Even though CalTech is the one providing temps to WeatherBug, the temps are often so simply inaccurate it’s clear that the sensors must be located in very sheltered locations where temps are oddly extremely cool. I’ve been living here for a long time and we are most often 90 or higher in summer months while WeatherBug will reduce that to 80 or 82… it’s just ridiculous, unreliable, misleading, and plain sloppy. I only use this app for Doppler radar not temperatures (current or predictions) because them telling me I’m wrong repeatedly doesn’t make their temp right; it makes their app unusable. I live in pasadena and unless they continue reporting accurate temperatures all the time, I will never rely on them again for that or their forecast because they’re plain wrong. And telling me to email them about it is just a request for me to water my time because to them I’m just wrong although I know I’m spot on. 2 thumbs down for WeatherBug

Accurate and User Friendly App

Easy to navigate the Weather Bug website. Pretty accurate forecasts. My go to weather app!

Terrible On iPhones Good on Android

Amazing that this app works terribly on Apple platform .

I’ve deleted & reinstalled 5 times and it keeps giving me errors when I navigate to change the settings for Celsius to Fahrenheit then logs me out and will not let me log back in for the past 3 weeks!

Fortunately I have a Galaxy 24+ that is right next to it and it doesn’t have those issues!

You would think with the AI/SI they would have agents handling this ( I’m also speaking of DOZENS of large companies that I deal with weekly!

Shockingly but I came up with a solution for them if they are interested. 🙏

Praying for their Right Minds as I have recommended to quite a few people to use WB & delete the others. It’s getting embarrassing
😉💯

Pretty accurate

Pretty accurate especially the snow fall amount hourly right down to fraction

Forecasting

One of the best apps for determining how the weather will affect your location!

Alerts Alert Alert Alert Alert Alert

The alerts are so repetitive that I have to shut them off. It’s constant and distracting and annoying. It would be nice to know about sever weather coming my way but I can’t stand all the alerts. Other than that it’s wrong a lot about the weather also but the only app I found ok enough to keep using.

lightning radar is cool and that’s it

Very inaccurate rain predictions… also won’t let me change my location. It has defaulted me into the town next to ours and will not let me change it.

The Only App That Works

WeatherBug is the best weather app that gives me everything I need.

Alerts Is Missing.An Alerts. Please Fixed It..

Alerts is missing an any alerts. I love this app so much.

Meteorologist Mark Schulz 👩🏿‍🦼❤️. Please fixed it for Alert, immediately for new updates at anytime.. Please…

Hurricane Proof Weather app

We took a direct hit form a Cat II and knew what was happening before it happened and before the news team could tell us it was heading our way.

Good forecasts for exactly where you live

I live in a city where the weather downtown and at my house can differ dramatically due to altitude and a nearby mountain. I can select weather in specific areas of the city that are accurate for what I need. In addition I love the overall features of the website, particularly the ability to easily pull up the radar, as well as keep a lot of locations as favorites. In addition to the towns where my family lives, I use it for winter road trips. I keep key towns near passes and other winter driving conditions along my route to see when snow or ice might be a problem.

Cannot delete locations

Cannot delete locations - pop up says must have at least one location. I have 5. Informed app devs and they said they’d fix it. Never happened.

Great app!

I really enjoy using this app :)

Was the best. Now the worst weather app

This used to be the best weather app I had. I don’t know what happened but now I don’t get any weather updates or warnings. I cannot select weather stations. It used to give me the daily pollen count, daily weather report and more. Now, it doesn’t do anything. I’ve switched to the Weather Channel. I’m a lot happier with it
