Good enough and gets the job done, but could be so much more. But the worst part is that they still have not fixed the age verification bug that constantly asks to verify if I’m old enough to look at the content….of a weather app. I shouldn’t have to disclose my age to open an app to view my own weather station data. The other aspects that are mid include the maps, which are lame or really just a single map of temperature. Also it’s not clear why Davis AWI data are not included in national stats and I see no way to view Davis AQI data nationally. For a company that is fairly prosumer the features are pretty entry level ### 4/5 — Very Pleased! *2026-07-09* To have mobile access to not only my weather station but all the others in the area, or when I’m visiting elsewhere, to have access to the mosaic of conditions in the area is fantastic! Loads of high quality point specific data!! The app is somewhat dated compared to what’s available out there. Looking at Carrot Weather that is built by a one man show, there is tons of room for improvement. Also would love to have an Apple Watch version, just simple data available at the quickest glance. ### 3/5 — Age questions again?! *2026-07-09, version 2.2.24* I’ve been a long time user of Davis systems. I don’t recall when it started but I now regularly am required to enter my age range or confirm it. It’s so annoying- this is a weather app, not OnlyFans! I’ve tried changing my settings to “always allow” sharing and I still get asked. Please fix this. Don’t irritate your customers. ### 3/5 — European users *2026-04-19, version 2.2.22* Apart from the issue with IOS 26 release that 3 weeks later is still not completely resolved, I am talking about charts. Can, I a future release allow Europe users to see the date in the weather forecast as day/ month and not month/day. Apart from these gripes, the app is snappy and very informative. ### 2/5 — Was Good but issues with IOS *2026-04-18, version 2.2.22* Taking way too long to address known issues with iOS updated versions. In app messaging saying working on a resolution is almost 2 months old and still not resolved. Deserve a discount on subscription fees. ### 2/5 — Ver 2.2.22 does not work with iOS 26.4 *2026-04-14, version 2.2.22* The update was supposed to fix the problem but it doesn’t. ### 2/5 — Problems, problems, problems *2026-04-09, version 2.2.22* The issues with this app have gone on long enough. 1st it just wouldn’t work with the latest IOS versions, ow it works…. Sort of. The graphs don’t work and Davis is moving like a sloth to fix it. All of this for a service that charges you to use your own data. Enough Davis, fix it already! ### 1/5 — Theft *2026-04-05, version 2.2.22* I pay for this service and the app does not display graphs!! ### 1/5 — Seems like a private equity app now *2026-04-04, version 2.2.22* The app was never amazing but at least it worked. Now, it requires screen time age verification and has error message at top. I guess customer satisfaction is no longer a value-add for the business model. Please fund your software development team. ### 1/5 — Poor Release *2026-04-04, version 2.2.22* Could you please not release updated apps that are inadequately tested. This new release is unacceptably bad…. ### 1/5 — Graphs Update? *2026-04-04, version 2.2.22* The app has been threatening to update the graphs and charts for over a week and no progress. In the meantime, no charts and no graphs. How long should I hold my breath? ### 3/5 — Age?? *2026-04-04* Use this app a lot. In the last few weeks it has started demanding to know my age. It’s a weather app. It doesn’t matter if I’m 2 or 102. Would have rated higher if it wasn’t for this ridiculous question. ### 1/5 — Ask for age verification? Why? Lots of reviews state this, Davis won't fix it! *2026-04-04, version 2.2.22* I've had this app for a long time. Now it sucks! You go into the app and it asks for age verification, and it says as soon as you open it "Age-Appropriate Experiences in Apps Share that you're an adult so you're not limited to child and teen content in apps." It's a weather app, that I guess you need to be an adult to see because of the content. I'm so tired of this app. There's lots of reviews like this, Davis won't fix it. ### 1/5 — No graphs since IOS. 26.4 *2026-04-02, version 2.2.22* Used to be a fair app At least it worked. No graphs since iOS 26.4. Send your developers to WWDC this year to learn how to make and maintain a good app. ### 2/5 — Speed optimisation *2026-03-29* Please get rid of the front page screen "lets check the weather" and open the stations straight away please. ### 1/5 — Unusable *2026-03-28, version 2.2.21* App asks to update my birthday each time open and then freezes. Complete junk! ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2026-03-27* Come on Davis, get your act together and sort out this app. Your weather stations might be top notch but your app is prehistoric and stops working every time Apple update IOS. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Flaky *2026-07-28* Keep getting age appropriate dialogue on iOS 26.5.2. No avenue for feedback from app and app support page link in App Store is a 404. Could be a lot better. ### 1/5 — Not responding to taps in a quick manner *2026-05-13, version 2.2.24* Used to be a fair app At least it worked. Not responsive to clicking as it was before. Please update ### 1/5 — Update 4/28/26 *2026-04-28, version 2.2.23* A few of us in these reviews requested landscape mode but fell on deaf ears. But the Smartmixin app covers it so that’s good news! Update: I have the River level and Flows app that was portrait mode only. So I contacted the developer and let them know the app was very difficult to use because of the iPad sitting in a keyboard. Within 24 hours they have a landscape mode version that will be released after Apple approves it. Funny that I’ve been asking Davis for landscape mode for WeatherLink for years and still waiting. Unbelievable!! UPDATE: I now have no chart data on this app. Emailed support several times but no reply. I am now done with Davis. I went with the SmartMixin app $8.99 a year for everything. Charts, forecasts, etc. it also supports landscape mode 👍👍 ### 1/5 — Update age? *2026-04-28, version 2.2.23* Each time I open this app it requests me to update my birthday. ### 1/5 — You better be an adult to look at this app. Ask for age verification? Why? Davis won't fix it! *2026-04-22, version 2.2.23* I've had this app for a long time. Now it sucks! I just updated to version Version 2.2.23 hoping it was fixed but Davis won’t fix it. You go into the app and it asks for age verification, and it says as soon as you try to open it "Age-Appropriate Experiences in Apps Share that you're an adult so you're not limited to child and teen content in apps." It's a weather app, that I guess you need to be an adult to see because of the content. I'm so tired of this app. There's lots of reviews like this, Davis won't fix it. ### 1/5 — Data issue *2026-04-18, version 2.2.22* When is the data issue going to be fixed with Apple , went down 26/3/26 and is still not working ### 1/5 — Fix it *2026-04-13, version 2.2.22* App was great until a minor OS update, now it’s been weeks without a fix to make the app whole again. Paying money for a half assed app. Fix it. ### 1/5 — Broken app *2026-04-13, version 2.2.22* This app has not functioned correctly for a long time. Please fix it ### 1/5 — Incompetent Non Existent Product Management *2026-04-12, version 2.2.22* Title says it all. Along with non existent testing. Perhaps someone needs to look at management because it’s hard to achieve such incompetence without seriously misguided direction. ### 1/5 — Fix the app *2026-04-08, version 2.2.22* What's taking so long guys?? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Not bad after 26.4 debacle *2026-05-02* Been using this app since 26.4 come out. I reported it to Davis support that it was not working and to be fair, they responded with a acknowledgement of the issue. We are now in a resolved state and tbh, the app is pretty good, gives the information I need. I have 3 airlink monitors and they all integrate seamlessly. ### 5/5 — Top 👍 *2026-04-22* Seit dem heutigen Update funktioniert endlich wieder alles wie gewohnt. ### 5/5 — ios fixed *2026-04-22* kudus to Davis who acknowledged a problem with ios 26.4.1. issued a fix for data display but still no charts again acknowledged the issue latest release fixes all thanks for addressing a problem the right way. ### 5/5 — WeatherLink *2025-12-19* I find this app very useful because you can set several areas to predict real time wind ### 5/5 — Apple Watch *2025-03-29* I have used the app on my iPad and my iPhone for years. Pretty much satisfied, feel comfortable using it. I would like to see if Davis could put an extension to the Apple Watch so you could see a few of the values. For example. Temp, current condition, wind speed, or what would fit nicely. ### 5/5 — Eight years running *2024-11-25* I bought my Davis weather station in 2016, making it 8 years in service. I use Meteobridge flashed onto a router to upload to several weather services and the Weatherlink program on a computer to upload to Davis. I have had minimal issues with this setup. The app on IOS could use a facelift but has functioned fine. ### 5/5 — Love this app and weather station. *2024-07-29* I love this app it gives me specific information for my neighborhood and I can see other Davis weather link stations in areas I plan to visit. Living in the Midwest were the closest town is over 35 miles away we find it very useful. Thank you ### 5/5 — Love this app and weather station. *2024-06-15* I love this app it gives me specific information for my neighborhood and I can see other Davis weather link stations in areas I plan to visit. Living in the Midwest were the closest town is over 35 miles away we find it very useful. Thank you ### 5/5 — Omg *2023-08-09* Great app very awesome davis sir is very great probably greatest of all time ### 5/5 — App is great *2023-01-24* I have had a Davis Vantage Pro for many years, I don’t send weather data to the internet, but find it useful to compare my readings with nearby stations and also calibrated Met Office stations too. The app is easy to configure and use. Great for free. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
