I really like the app, though I'd have couple of things what *I* would consider to be tiny improvements. You could move the settings on the toolbar menu, probably does not look too polluted. I found myself searching for it awhile. Second one is super trivial. The links in the third-party modal under settings, could be at least selectable with long press or even clickable. Love the app anyway, thanks. Really well-made :)

Sometimes when pressing the refresh button on the widget it breaks with "missing location" error. Error persists until the app is opened from the application drawer, and there is no error in the app itself. Also it when the app is opened it is blocked by fullscreen "finding your location" overlay for several seconds. This is very inconvenient, since most of the time my location is the same so this delay is useless. These things should happen in the background.

Generally a really good weather app with a nice UI and widgets. Althought it's missing humidity in the forecasts which they do show on the website. Also I'm not sure I like the new look of the graphs. They're esthetically more appealing, but look less detailed/accurate. Also in the last version these graphs would be much larger vertically if the changes were extreme or lots of downfall was expected, which was very useful to know when extreme weather was approaching.

I like the app, and I still use it as it gives reliable weather forecasts. However, the widget keeps having bugs. It doesn't display anything (no temperature or the clock) and the only way to make it work is to open the app and then it sort of refreshes the widget as well. But after a while the widget goes blank again and I need to do the same thing all over. I will change the rate as soon as this is resolved. Thanks

a Norwegian app, which gets Norwegian weather wrong most of the time. Google weather app gives better accuracy.

app used to be great now it just takes to long to load, when ever I open it it just sits loading forever and I give up!

Great app. One annoying thing is the truncation of the time in portrait mode. Plenty of space for the time column to be made wider to show properly.

recently this app changes every day twice a day one minute it shows no rain, the next it shows 60mm in an hour and neither end up beong right.

Better UI than DMI, but this is just another one of many apps that says "no precipitation for at least 2 hours" while it's raining cats and dogs, and there's not a single way to send feedback on current weather or using Netatmo weather stations.

Accurate for wind and temperature. Rain seems like a pure guess. Biggest issue is that for the last year or so, it takes about 30 seconds to open. All app and phone updates are done.

Maps still not working in Android. Hope log in does not become a requirement.

Excellent weather app with easy to read. Presentation on all pages. Would like the ability to remove parts of the other screen as webcams are of no interest to me and too far away from my location to be of any help. Other than that an excellent app

This web app is seriously impressive—accurate, reliable, and probably one of the best I've used so far. Great job to the developers!

v6.0 made the temperature in 3x1 widgets much smaller. Not good - don't want to resize the widget larger for no extra data.

Don't think it's truly accurate. For example, recently, Ireland had temperatures over 20°c but YR is saying 12, with clouds even though the sky is blue all week! Additionally, it takes too long to load information.

I love how this app is set out. Everything works super well except..... the forecast. It used to be an incredibly accurate app, to the minute, for rain. But in the last 12 months, roughly, it has seriously deteriorated for accuracy. Check it one hour, and it might say 10mm for the day. Check it a couple of hours later, and the rain has disappeared, completely, to a sunny day. And the same with the weekly rain. I don't know what has changed, but please go back to how you were!!!

Good, clean app. One suggestion on the graph view, showing the exact value when you touch/tap an area within each graph would be a nice feature. Overall great design, no ads and no extra clutter is good to see. A bit more customization would be welcome, solid black theme with color selection(color on table text) possibly. Different map views, more customization on a sky tab. Just a few examples.

I appreciate that the government weather service has made this app for free, without ads, and has made it useful around the world. Despite enabling background location permission and allowing precise location, and restarting the app, there is no widget visible anywhere on my Pixel 3a (which was updated last week). That is literally all I want out of a weather app - for it show the current temp on the lock screen and in the task bar next to the clock. Table is too detailed with 4 temps for each day, hard to scroll through the week and make sense of it. Need option for just one or two lines per day with high/low temp, forecast precip, and wind speed/direction. Easier to grok the whole week that way. Graph is okay but only shows next 48 hours. My Locations keeps adding an additional one nearby and I keep deleting it, I don't want to see it. When I edit locations list, there is a hamburger menu icon for each location that does nothing when tapped. I figured out once how to just add a location by city, but now I can't find that option. All in all, a frustrating user experience.

Nice basic weather app that, unlike other popular ones, doesn't sell users' location data. You don't even have to allow location data if you type in your city and save it. And no ads! The only other things I wish it has were radar and humidity. But on the occasion that I really care about those things, I can check mobile.weather.gov for more detailed info.

On launch it says "Finding your location..." and never finds it. I can type a location by hand, but that takes extra taps every time I launch it. I turned off "Location based forecast". No good. I set default start page to "location list". It ignores it. I'm still giving four stars since it's otherwise a nice app, and I like that it doesn't sell data. Could you add a version of the widget with a five day forecast on one line, showing low and high temperature for each day?
