### 4/5 — I like it

👍🏻👏🏻

### 2/5 — Paid to unlock but nothing new on ipad air

*2026-06-30, version 2.9.1*

Have this on my android phone and subscribe yearly.  Got this for ipad air and paid 99p to unlock destinations but nothing happened.  Also does not centre on screen so hard to select options on right hand side.  Have asked for a refund. Shame as is brilliant on my Samsung phone.

*2025-12-23, version 2.9.1*

I have this app for many years after the first 6 mos decided to buy without apps. I’m so glad I did.  Ads ruin the experience.  Indulge enjoy this weather experience.   U won’t regret it ,

### 5/5 — Wonderful!

*2025-07-31, version 2.9.1*

I’ve been looking for a weather app for ages and came across this on Threads! I love it. Very well thought out with all the necessary information available, aesthetically pleasing and accurate! Thank you very much

### 4/5 — Add  winds in animation?

*2025-07-19, version 2.9.1*

I had YoWindow since many years, just add some objects to show the winds will me make happy.

### 5/5 — Different style

*2025-07-16, version 2.9.1*

This is a different view of predicting the weather. Take it for what it is. Very creative. Great for vacation. Love the positive presentation of this style.

### 5/5 — Schade

*2025-07-16*

Benutze dies App schon seit über 10 Jahren. Eine tolle App.
Wäre super, wenn es endlich wieder mal Updates gäbe.
So etwas tolles darf man nicht verkommen lassen.
Diese App sollte wirklich an das neue iOS angepasst werden, damit wir noch lange Freude daran haben.

### 3/5 — Needs to be a widget

*2025-07-13, version 2.9.1*

Other than no widget option I love how accurate it is

### 5/5 — Peaceful

*2025-05-13, version 2.9.1*

Such a pleasant scene.

### 5/5 — Liebevoll gestaltet

*2025-04-21*

Je nachdem wo auf der Welt ich mich aufhalte, ist die Vorhersage vielleicht nicht so exakt. Aber ich rufe die App eigentlich jeden Tag einmal auf, einfach weil ich mich darüber freue, dass man Wetter auch so schön präsentieren kann. Vielen Dank an die Entwickler.

### 5/5 — Prévisions correctes

*2025-04-16*

Quand j’ouvre chaque fois votre application,je me souviens,il pleuvait tous les jours et vous m’indiquiez qu’il ne pleuvrait pas un après-midi,c’était pour aller chercher des poutres à l’extérieur d’un magasin de bricolage et véridique,il n’a pas plus,on vous a fait confiance et on n’a pas regretté.Merci…

### 5/5 — Top App!

*2025-03-28*

Das ist die ultimative Wetter-App. Hervorragend genau und mit ein wenig Spaß dabei. Mit frei wählbarer, interaktiver Landschaftsanimation und die Bedienung wird ebenfalls auch sehr gut erklärt! Ich finde Sie daher 1a und sie bekommt deshalb von mir 5 Sterne!Sie läuft bei mir tagein, tagaus auf einem alten iPad direkt an der Wand! Man kann die Menschen lachen lassen, Hunde bellen lassen, Autos halten lassen usw. indem man sie berührt. Man kann des Abends in den Wohnungen das Licht an oder aus machen, man kann sogar die Flugzeuge einen Looping machen lassen. Die App ist die allerbeste App., die ich kenne. Man kann auch die Landschaften wählen. Ich liebe diese App.! Könnte man 10 Sterne vergeben, würde sie von mir auch diese 10 Sterne bekommen! Die beste Wetter-App. die ich kenne, eine andere brauche und will ich nicht! Vielen Dank!

### 1/5 — Avis

*2026-03-10*

C’est dommage, c’est une belle application, mais il manque des points obligé d’ouvrir l’application pour profiter de ces images cinématique avec météo intégrée dommage de ne pas mettre ces images cinématique en fond d’écran sur écran de verrouillage écran d’accueil et ne pas le mettre uniquement en widget !! pourtant pour les utilisateurs d’Android sur le Play Store il existe beaucoup de ces applications comme par exemple l’application Weather live Wallpaper où on peut mettre les thèmes cinématique en fond d’écran sur les appareils Samsung sur Apple, c’est très limité nous n’avons pas ce genre de choses nous sommes obligés d’utiliser la météo d’Apple qui est fade ou ça manque de jolie paysage avec météo intégré il serait temps de créer des applications avec de beaux paysages pour les mettre en fond d’écran sur écran de verrouillage sur l’écran avec la météo intégrée et ne pas s’arrêter qu’à des widget !!!  pour profiter, ça nous oblige juste à ouvrir l’application

### 1/5 — Фотографии.

*2025-12-22*

И где же фотографии  городов? И почему картинки не увеличиваются? Очень мелкие

### 1/5 — App Keeps Reinstalling Itself When I Delete It, Won’t Launch When Tapped

*2025-06-20, version 2.9.1*

Using iPad OS 15.6.1, app wouldn’t launch after updating, tapping the icon did nothing. So I tried reinstalling, but the App Store said it was still installed (only Open button was visible), and on restart of iPad, icon would reappear on the Home Screen.  Using Settings > General > iPad Storage > YoWindow > Delete App also would just flicker the app in the list, and it would refuse to uninstall no matter how many times I select it and tap Delete App (shows it’s still using 197 KB for Documents & Data).  Restarting iPad would just bring back the icon on the Home Screen again.
Would like it to work again, or at least let me uninstall it.

### 1/5 — Not accurate

*2025-06-06, version 2.9.1*

The yo window app on the TV is perfect with the weather outside, but the phone app does not match it and as inaccurate

### 1/5 — No photographs

*2025-01-14, version 2.9.1*

Paid for the remove adds and it say over 700 photographs but theres nothing showing apart from the 8 animated images. Or am I doing something wrong

### 1/5 — 垃圾、垃圾、垃圾 重要的事情说三遍

*2024-06-28, version 2.9.1*

为啥不支持小组件？也不支持精准定位，你不知道一个城市的天气是多样化的吗？可能城东艳阳高照，城西却是大雨瓢泼，你这只显示一个地区的天气情况，能准才怪了～

### 1/5 — Fake weather

*2024-02-01, version 2.9.1*

App show me sunny but rainy weather 😂😂

### 1/5 — Yowindow

*2023-01-23*

Черный экран. Приложение запускается через раз. Сбиваются настройки выбора серверов погоды. ios 16.2

**Developer response:** Здравствуйте! Спасибо, что написали нам. Мы сейчас работаем над новой кросс-платформенной версией YoWindow, поэтому временно не обновляем текущую версию. Удалите, пожалуйста, приложение и установите его заново. Это должно помочь справиться с проблемой. Извините, пожалуйста, за доставленные неудобства. Мы стараемся как можно быстрее выпустить новую версию YoWindow.

### 1/5 — Weather

*2022-11-04, version 2.9.1*

This app is so lame!  I looked at it just now and it said we were getting light rain.  No, it isn’t light rain when it is heavy snow and has been snowing constantly since last night.  Everything about it is wrong.  The only good thing about this app are the pictures when you turn the app on but even they are never depicting our true weather.

### 1/5 — Sadly inaccurate

*2022-07-26, version 2.9.1*

It’s pouring outside and the app tells me sunny. Happens a lot.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2026-06-13, version 2.9.1*

I’m using this app from a long time ago I’m very pleased and the app is very precise.
I recommend this app for everyone

### 5/5 — Favorite Weather App

*2026-04-06, version 2.9.1*

Love it!
My only wish is that this version was updated like the Android Version. Missing Live Landscape  backgrounds for example.
Love the grandparents in th Android version. Why are they not updated together? Android has more this this version.

### 5/5 — Wonderful Weather app

*2026-03-16, version 2.9.1*

Whether you need a Weather app or not.  You’ll WANT this one.
I love how I set the background to be my cabin and trees.  So beautiful and how you can see the rain or snow fall to the minute it predicts it.
It is my absolute favorite weather app!  
I’ve shown all my friends, and they have it now too.

### 5/5 — Лучшая!

*2026-03-13*

На тв пользуюсь как заставкой экрана. Обожаю! Спасибо!

### 5/5 — обновления

*2026-03-01*

для ios ждем обновления!!!

### 5/5 — Класс !

*2026-02-05*

На сегодняшний день самое точное приложение, редко когда прогноз не совпадает .

### 5/5 — Useful and Cheeful

*2026-01-31, version 2.9.1*

I got frustrated with Apple weather because the low temp had nothing to do with “how cold it will be tonight,” and usually “how cold we predicted it would be at 12:01 this morning.”  Not helpful!  
Instead, I got this delightful interactive app which reminds me that weather is nature, and nature is outdoors!  
The bonus is that if I am wearing headphones, there are little sound effects.  I just wish the audio loops were smoother.

### 5/5 — Great App—Where’s Grandma & Grandpa

*2026-01-27, version 2.9.1*

I love the app, but I was disappointed when loading it onto my phone that I discovered Grandma and Grandpa are not there.  I vote for you to add them. 😁

### 5/5 — Super live weather

*2026-01-08, version 2.9.1*

Love this weather app had it awhile now great an accurate 👍👍👍👍👍

### 5/5 — This is different.

*2026-01-05, version 2.9.1*

The interface for the app is both unique and intuitive. I love this app.
