But for the last couple of days, it doesn't even respond. Iphone 14, iOS 27.0.1. Will update rating when fixed. ### 2/5 — Just plain wrong often *2026-10-15, version 6.4.0* This app looks real pretty, but boy is it wildly inaccurate much too often ### 3/5 — Have used this app for years but poor search function has me going elsewhere. *2026-08-28* I’ve found this app to be reliable over the last 7 years in both New Zealand when I called that home and now Canada. However as a frequent traveller I’m often searching for new places and this is where to app falls short. The search function is unusable! I’m in Kamloops right now, and I want to look up the weather in Clearwater, about 1hr north and where we are heading tomorrow. I type Clearwater, then Clearwater BC, and the results show everything but where I want. I’d imagine the app can be intelligent enough to show close results first and not some place in Florida. I’ve had this happen so frequently with places that aren’t by any stretch “remote” and I’ll now be looking for a new app. ### 2/5 — Cannot switch between saved locations! *2026-08-05, version 6.3.6* So, I set up this app and saved a bunch of locations … but then there seems to be no way to access or switch between my saved locations! The Android app has a 'hamburger' menu for this, but not here. Very disappointing. ### 2/5 — Rubbish *2026-07-30, version 6.3.6* Like every weather app. A complete waste of space. Said no rain for 24 hours. An hour later, it’s throwing it down. If you can’t forecast correctly for the next three hours, what really is the point of you. ### 3/5 — 훌륭합니다 *2026-07-07* 훌륭합니다! 다만 강수량에 대한 정확도는 조금 떨어지는 것 같습니다 ### 2/5 — bad interface *2026-06-29, version 6.3.6* difficult/impossible ? to change favourite location ### 3/5 — Once the best… *2026-06-05* I downloaded this during Covid and it was the best weather app I’ve ever had. Far more accurate than any other. But recently when going to the 10 day forecast it now sticks on table rather than graph. And it seems to be something I cannot change, which is a terrible shame. Can’t understand why people can read numbers better on a forecast than visual representation. ### 3/5 — Excellent on iPhone, not so much on Apple Watch *2026-04-17, version 6.3.2* Works well in the iPhone, better predictions than the met office, and a nice UI. Unfortunately on the Apple Watch it seems to default to Fahrenheit, with no way to change it. The mobile app is set to Celsius, and works fine. ### 3/5 — Iphone app and widgets *2026-02-24* What to know. Well if it worked it would be awesome. Widgets do not work unless you sign into website, they advised cookies was the problem, i have removed cookies and all protection from their site and still no difference. So just use it the best you can on a normal app and avoid the widget’s. Not many allergies listed either? (Ash & Olive please.) ### 3/5 — Rain, what rain? *2026-02-16, version 6.2.0* As a refugee from the now horrible Met Office app I really like the look of this. Unfortunately the precipitation data is partial or missing. Not usable until fixed unfortunately. ### 2/5 — Accurate, but saved locations are missing even when logged in and can't be saved within the app *2026-02-15, version 6.2.0* I've tried multiple times and in a multitude of ways to save locations to the app, but it simply will not work. Locations saved to my account are accessible with a web browser, but not with the app, despite definitely being logged in! It's a real shame saved locations don't work because the forecasts are very accurate and the app is feature-rich. I'd happily give five stars if the locations feature was fixed. ### 3/5 — Good *2026-02-12, version 6.2.0* Good, but can’t get the detailed forecast so end up using a browser instead ### 3/5 — Promising, not quite there yet *2026-01-27* Given this a quick try. There’s a lot to like; and a different approach that works (and covers UK) but takes a bit of getting used to. However, the locations are nearly unusable - hard to find and swap between. They should be accessible (and editable) from Profile, and probably from the top centre drop-down. ### 3/5 — Bugs *2026-01-05, version 6.1.4* App looks great and is accurate in the UK but the temperature is stuck on Fahrenheit when viewed on the Apple Watch app. No matter how many times I delete and install it still doesn’t synchronise with the iPhone app. Please fix ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — The worst weather app *2026-08-21, version 6.3.6* This lousy app can't even predict the weather for the same day. They forecast in the morning sunny day and a few hours later, it's pouring rain. ### 1/5 — Buffering *2026-07-22, version 6.3.6* It refuses to load, my internet speed is sufficient but I have even tried uninstalling and reinstalling and the only graphic I get is the exciting spinning wheel on the screen! ### 1/5 — Inaccurate *2026-04-14, version 6.3.2* This app is very inaccurate, it is telling me that the it is raining but there is only a little bit of clouds and sunny. Please fix your predictions ### 1/5 — Celsius????? *2026-03-01, version 6.2.0* I like the app on the iPhone. I can set what units I want, metric/ISO always. I now login to the app on the iPhone. The iPad app appears out of date. There is no way to select metric units and it displays Fahrenheit which is completely incomprehensible to me. I live in the UK, a metric country. The app support button in the App Store takes me to pages that are out of date and do not relate to the current version. I’m disappointed. ### 1/5 — Incorrect map *2026-01-01* Map of India is incorrect portions of Jammu and Kashmir are wrongly depicted Correct it on priority ### 1/5 — Highly inaccurate *2025-11-08* Tracked the forecasts with actual results over three weeks. YR app was only about 18% accurate. Not worth the trouble downloading it. ### 1/5 — Wind direction arrows completely misssing *2025-08-03, version 6.0.3* Nagging to sign up for features that CLEARLY don't need it is nasty from a government owned entity. Do better ### 1/5 — Can’t get forecasts for *2025-06-21* I downloaded the app to get forecasts for places in Norway that I’ll be travelling to, but it forces you to turn on the phone’s GPS and only gives you a forecast for your current location, which is useless for me. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-02-26, version 5.15.2* I was hopeful this app would give me local weather in Norway when I’m on vacation. Unfortunately it won’t even load. I repeatedly hit the button to give it location access, it does nothing. The app is up-to-date as is my phone. Very disappointed. ### 1/5 — Totally pointless *2024-08-08* I had read about the app and how good it was so thought I give it a try. The UI is very pleasant, I like the way the information is provided. However, the forecast I get here in the Scottish Highlands is based on Kinloss on the Moray Firth, “only” 54 miles away. Given that the weather up here can change three times within 10 miles travel the weather forecast is generally useless. It may be accurate in the South or Norway, but you live in the North of Scotland forget it! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-09-29, version 6.3.8* It’s truly exceptional. I had over 12 weather apps installed on my phone, but none match the accuracy and finesse of this one. Ad-free, free of charge, and unpretentious—yet undoubtedly the best. Keep up the great work. ### 5/5 — Bonito e preciso *2026-07-26* Visual ótimo e interativo, temperatura precisa. Só uma coisinha, não tem a opção de mudar entre as localizações favoritas, se houver, está difícil de achar. ### 5/5 — the best *2026-07-19* melhor app de meteorologia disponível, confiável, grátis e super bonito. ### 5/5 — Excellent ! *2026-06-03* Rarement mise en défaut, données fiables ., cela fait des années que je l’utilise. C’est une collègue de mon travail qui me l’avait conseillée , elle même l’avait déjà utilisée depuis plusieurs années. ### 5/5 — Love the UI/UX of this app *2026-05-16, version 6.3.5* Really great app. I usually use the Apple Weather app, but I found it not sufficient to give an accurate forecast of the weather in Oslo. So I downloaded YR and it’s been great to give me a more accurate forecast of daily weather. The UI/UX is fantastic, especially with the functionality to drag left to see upcoming hours/days. Great work! ### 5/5 — Cephalic Vein *2026-03-29* New to this App use multiple sites including paid ones. This is excellent, easy to use, so much better than most including the new Met Office. Great app for general use and possibly specialist use . ### 5/5 — Best *2026-01-09, version 6.1.4* Best weather app on the market. ### 5/5 — IDIOMA *2025-12-22* Atualizar para idioma em Português Brazil ### 5/5 — Accurate *2025-12-13, version 6.1.3* Over the years I have used many weather Apps YR has been far more accurate and trustworthy recommend by a friend in Sweden. ### 5/5 — Unexpected *2025-11-25, version 6.0.7* Wow- right off the bat, this app floored me. There’s such a cool interface, and multi hour weather, and live webcams. OMG! I love it!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
