5★I only downloaded this a few minutes ago, but I already love it. The format makes sense; I'm not searching around endlessly, trying to find things like I did on other weather apps I was trying out - they are all logically where they should be. Very easy on the eyes, too - nice colors. Only one "forever" payment of $2.99 in total to remove ads AND update to the pro version. I haven't done that yet. So far, I haven't seen any ads at all! I highly recommend this app. 👍

1★It's not very accurate. Sometimes takes awhile to update the real temperature. For instance it's 88 according to other weather apps but it says 92. That's a bigger difference than it should be especially for a paid app. I've tried closing and reopening. There have been issues off and on since I've gotten this app. 60% of the time it's usually accurate but other times not so much. To be fair most weather apps are wonky but you'd think one you pay for wouldn't be.

5★I actually love this app. I have the free version and the ads aren't even bad at all. when I get a little extra money I will be upgrading just to support the app but it works amazing as is. All the information I need is available and it's pretty accurate so far. the notification are perfect they aren't overwhelming but pop up 1x daily for the weather for the day and when something important comes up. Overall 5 starts for the free version and I'll update my review after im able to upgrade.

4★I prefer to observe the day to day (7-day) forecast from left to right, rather than from top to bottom, but the information is well organized and updates regularly. I really appreciate the hour to hour predictions. Another aspect that I'm glad is included in this weather app is details of the wind, and the related wind chill factor, (titled as the) "real feel". I'm considering going 'solar', so the 'sun-up' to 'sun-down' schedule has been particularly useful lately.

1★Ads are deceiving and intrusive. more recently on startup it brings up ads and the only way I could get out of it was to close the ap and reopen. further some of the ads are essentially using scare tactics to try to get you to click on them and others take you to the play store to install annoying games. once I find a different weather ap I like this one is going to be uninstall
