### 1/5 — V1.7 broken

*2020-05-19, version 1.7*

This version does not appear to work on iOS 13.4.1.

### 5/5 — Does What It Claims To Do

*2020-03-06, version 1.6*

Impressed!  Downloaded this app and looked at the screen (i
Pad) and there it was.  All of my current weather information.  No setup, no messing around — it was just THERE.  Thanks for an app that works like a Apple product should.

### 1/5 — Needs Aesthetic Upgrade

*2015-02-05, version 1.3*

Boy if there was ever an uglier weather app I haven’t seen it.  I have quit using it and instead use PWS apps that hook into Weather Underground.

### 1/5 — Just doesn't work

*2014-10-09, version 1.3*

I'm feeling ripped off. I can't receive data on my local network. So I certainly don't expect anything via http.

### 4/5 — Does not work on "local"

*2014-10-05, version 1.3*

The 1.3 version is a nice improvement on the earlier iPhone app. I really appreciate the two Internet addresses that can be stored. I use them both on a regular basis. However, the local network connection never works for me on 8.0.2. Not a big problem since I can use one of the Internet addresses to connect to my local weather station.

### 5/5 — Great improvement for Weathercat users

*2014-07-08, version 1.2*

Huge improvement. It had been annoying me that this hadn't been updated in so long, but it's a niche market with likely few users...but this improvement is great.

### 5/5 — Love the improvements

*2014-07-05, version 1.2*

This version utilizes the extra iPhone 5 screen size, accommodates more than one weather station, allows you to see the Min and Max weather data and more. It also appears to have solved the annoying requirement to edit the settings to include Good Data, Comms Errors and Sensor Errors if the iPhone has to re-establish the network connection. If you run your personal weather station using WeatherCat, this is nice upgrade for a quick check on your main weather data points from your iPhone. If you are using a previous version, upgrade. If you are using WeatherCat but haven’t tried the iOS app, the price is perfect.

### 5/5 — Great for remote monitoring if my weather station

*2012-10-20, version 1.1*

Gives me the piece of mind that my setup is working OK.

### 4/5 — Great first version

*2012-09-30, version 1.1*

This is a great first version if the WeatherCat mobile app.  Could use some additional bells and whistles like a quick switch from Local to Internet button. Also analog gauges and alerting for set thresholds would be nice too. Works well.. Looking forward to the next release!
