Yahoo Weather for Negative User Reviews
✓ InaccurateI use 2 other weather apps, and Yahoo is always way out in temp and forecast. Example: tomorrow the other 2 apps (One of them is BOM, the govt weather bureau) predict 60% chance of rain. Yahoo?? Zilch chance. Sorry Yahoo, your useless.Version: 1.13.1
✓ Beautiful but useless.Gorgeous to look at and use, but provides totally incorrect info (at least where I live, which is Auckland, New Zealand). When compared to the local Met Service App, the info and temps Yahoo offers are completely different, and completely wrong. I have no idea where it's pulling its info from, but it sure ain't Auckland. Fix that and it's great. Without that, it's completely useless, which it is for me right now..Version: 1.0.2
✓ Has stopped workingThe app has been working okay on my phone. It often doesn’t refresh on my Apple Watch. I now can’t get it to work at all on my watch. It just shows the loading screen with the cloud and the suns moving and that’s it. Have tried uninstalling and putting it back on but no help or change. How can I fix this ?.Version: 1.15.0
✓ Wrong city notifications - why?!Keep repeatedly getting notifications of a city I visited many months ago. Have removed from my list - uninstalled and reinstalled the app - have tried all to stop this so why do you still keep sending me updates for that particular city!? Pls fix in your next update otherwise I have no option but to delete this app. Otherwise no complaints. Thanks.Version: 1.26.0
✓ Please improve the mapThe map is lousy. It only shows clouds and wind. What we NEED in a weather map is the Radar map that shows PRECIPITATION. Then this app would be perfect. What good is a weather map that doesn’t show when it’s going to rain or snow?.Version: 2.4.4
✓ Yahoo weatherPrevious was much better.Version: 2.0.4
✓ Continually using location servicesI’m not sure if there was a recent update by this app is constantly accessing my location even though I’ve changed to “only whilst using the app”. Never noticed this before..Version: 1.19.0
✓ Can be disappointingSometimes the app will not appear at all. Therefore, can be disappointing when you want to see the current temperature..Version: 2.18.0
✓ Picture quality poorGreat app and I do use it but why are the large pictures in SD, surely in this day and age they should be HD. Makes the app look old..Version: 1.28.5
✓ Not happy with new lookJust opened the Yahoo Weather App quick love way better than the Weather App on iPhones but I’m sorely disappointed with this new look. No more curves of hourly temperatures. Now everything needs to be in a box and there’s absolutely no more flow to the hourly temperature and precipitation through to the rest of the day. Big thumbs down!.Version: 2.0.3
✓ Weather showing problemIt shows fake weather.Version: 1.28.4
✓ Unfortunately not what it used to be!I have used and recommended this weather app to others for years. That was until recently. Of late this app has been unreliable and well just getting the weather wrong 👎🏼 It’s raining heavily where I am and has been all afternoon, the app though says it’s cloudy. The new design is not great either. If things don’t improve I’ll soon be looking for a new weather app.Version: 2.0.7
✓ A review for the “new” look. This app USED to be great....You changed the app so it looks more kid-friendly. Wow. And, in the middle of a pandemic, you decided to shove the corona virus stats down to the bottom instead of front and center like it was 3 days ago. (Sure, THAT will make everyone forget.... just in time for....). Ok, I accept that not everyone wants to see the covid-19 stats every time they look at the weather. But WHY have you removed my State and the USA stats? Do you think each of us only cares about our city or county? What if we are in a hot spot and think the whole State is a hot spot when it’s not? Or, worse, the reverse? Please go back to giving us the information that we all need. The coronavirus hasn’t gone away. It’s still here and it’s still taking lives - all over the USA. AND, people are recovering all over the USA. Give us back our unadulterated stats! Please!!!.Version: 2.0.4
✓ UV index erroneousNot a bad app except for the fact that the UV index can display “low” when in fact it is ”extreme”. Fix it Yahoo, I wouldn’t want to be in your shoes when litigation starts. (Try Elders weather app if you require an accurate UV index)..Version: 2.2.6
✓ All style, inaccurate contentI've verified time and again that the forecasts are usually wrong. Sometimes more than others. But this summer it became obvious, with the temperature extremes, that time and again the forecast temperatures were just plain wrong. Today was the last straw when it was off by 8C! That is a lot! Also, the ads are just too intrusive. There are much more accurate weather apps out there, e.g. WeatherPro, which is also free, has no ads, and is much more accurate (the most accurate I've found — yes I was sad enough to trial and record forecasts from a few weather apps side-by-side for a couple of months, to check which was most accurate)..Version: 1.19.0
✓ Still too show since the graphic updateSince the graphic update the app is still soooo slow / almost unusable on my iphone6s I might have to switch to another app. Maybe the images in the bg are too high res? I don’t know but the app is too slow to wait just to get some weather info.Version: 2.3.2
✓ Widget UI issueThe widget cannot be displayed correctly on iOS 15, with a black corner on the top left..Version: 2.4.1
✓ Sunny when cloudyI have used this Yahoo weather app on and off for the past few years, and today will likely be the last day I use it. I woke up to cloudy and cool weather, so I checked the Yahoo weather app to see when the possibility of rain will be. Upon opening the app, it said “sunny”, with a clear bright sun icon. What? So I thought oh, the app probably didn’t have a chance to update, so I checked another weather app, immediately the other app showed cloudy skies with possible rain in two hours. This “other app” also showed the exact temperature that my home thermometer was showing too. So I went back to the Yahoo weather app...doink! It still showed the weather in my area as sunny with not even a cloud underneath, and it also showed a much higher temp than what I showed in our area. This is typical of the non-accurate Yahoo app that has disappointed me as in many times past. There are many other weather apps out there that I have found to be more accurate than this Yahoo app. Maybe for other people it is different than what I stated, but for me it has proven to be mostly inaccurate..Version: 2.4.1
✓ What have they done?Update as of 30 June. Even worse now in that the app shows blank pages a lot of the time. PLEASE READ ALL THESE REVIEWS, TAKE NOTE, ADMIT THAT THE UPDATE IS A FAIL AND REVERT TO THE ORIGINAL.. Better to acknowledge that a mistake has been made and put it right than to blindly blunder on. This has been my number one go-to weather app for years. Just updated 3 days ago and now has the appearance of a children’s colouring book. IMO more difficult to quickly pick up the information you need. Most serious people don’t have time for fluffy-wuffy ‘colourful’ graphics. We just want clear and concise information. A great shame, will have to rely on ‘Dark Sky’ now..Version: 2.0.6
✓ Style Over SubstanceA very pretty app with nice scenes to go with your weather forecasts. Unfortunately those forecasts are often (in some cases, nearly always) inaccurate. So if you value visuals over facts, this is for you; if you want accuracy, look elsewhere..Version: 2.0.6
✓ Recent changes not great.Still simple to use with precise details, however the recent changes: Fonts, Icons and pictures done to this app makes remember an outdated Power Point slides from 2000..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Stop advertising gambling.Simply put, stop advertising gambling to me. Stop advertising gambling all-together. Thousands of years have proved gambling ruins lives and doesn’t benefit anybody - apart from the greedy gambling company. You’ve been advertising gambling to me so often, for years actually. Stop doing it. It’s a weather app...that simple. I have emailed you many times, you have not ever replied..Version: 1.28.5
✓ The latest redesign is not good.The latest redesign has made the app less useful for me. It’s showing me less information in less space. It used to use the whole screen to present more data, now it uses half the screen, in a centered column, to show less information. You have to scroll quite a bit to see everything. In some parts, the text scrolls past the window it’s in and you can’t scroll to see the rest. Without the animations this app is far less “delightful.” I think the App Store editors should reconsider their praise for the design of this app. Update: they’ve expanded the “centered column” of info to fill the whole screen, so there’s less scrolling and info seems to fit in each frame. I still miss the rain graph which showed precipitation as a graph under the temperature graph. Now I have to read the percentages and process that info. A minor complaint, I understand, but “at-a-glance” info was the appeal of the app for me..Version: 2.0.5
✓ Would be nice if there was a legend for the symbols usedMost of the symbols used, like a cloud with rain, or sun are easy to understand, but sometimes there are symbols I have no idea what they mean, like the 3 wavy horizontal lines. Fog? Is that the weather forecast for the entire day? Fog? Wind maybe? It’s my forecast for tomorrow but I can’t get enough details about tomorrow to make a determination as to the meaning of this symbol that represents the day. Also, looking at my town as my current location I see 20% chance of rain for tomorrow afternoon. If I flip the page to my town by name (same place as my current location) it says I have a 68% chance of rain for tomorrow afternoon. That’s quite a difference for the same place! I don’t find this app very accurate wrt what is forecast and what I observe..Version: 2.15.0
✓ Yahoo weather appWas great until recently. When i tap the icon now it wont load up then after about 30 seconds just goes back to home screen. On the occasions that it does load up, it then freezes. So i did a software update then uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but still no joy. What is going on with it, would someone PLEASE explain how this can be fixed once and for all, because i really like this app! 🤗.Version: 2.15.0
✓ Beautiful, but buggy!Update: Lately in the past couple months I am getting notifications saying rain is forecast in the next 15 minutes, which is great, except the city it says it’s going to rain in is 300 miles away, and not a place I’ve been to/through/heard of. I even deleted and re-added the cities (only two along with current location), but it didn’t change anything. It’s also doing the same thing for next day temperature alerts. Original: There's nothing better than opening a weather app and seeing a beautiful picture associated with the location you've chosen, along with the temperature! No wonder they won a design award, this is by far the best design I've seen so far!.Version: 1.24.0
✓ Added adds made it annoyingI used this app before on my old phone now I have an iPhone and installed again but when I opened I saw in the middle of the page one big square section just for stupid adds! I saw advertising for Final Fantasy XV then I swapped to the next page I saw advertisements for Über, instead of checking weather I spent some time looking at these adds I forgot why I opened this app for! And because of this reason I uninstalled..Version: 1.15.0
✓ Beautiful app but not functionalThe esthetics of this weather app are phenomenal. I don't like ads on my apps and would gladly pay development to be able to remove them but it's a minor gripe. The main concern is over the functionality, specifically in the maps. For one, it uses satellite maps which makes it look antiquated and hard to pinpoint where I am in relation to everything else. Second, the accuracy of the radar seems to be off at times and doesn't show rain when there clearly is. I like my apps to have options as to how I want to view the data but with yahoo there is none. Sincerely hope that the devs read reviews and decide to add some better and more useful features than just a pretty app..Version: 1.12.2
✓ I turn my back...For just a minute and too much is thrown out. My city is no longer recognized so my weather has disappeared. It still looks great but I’m no longer included . And for heavens sakes moderate the suggestions “forum”. It has clearly been ignored, is an utter mess. Obviously from the condition of it not a single suggestion has been looked. V unprofessional. But 3 star coz it is still the best looking and best set out app. I am deleting it though because there is no point in using it..Version: 1.22.1
✓ Weather app on iPadI have hunted high and low for a weather app that is equal to that available on my iPhone Unfortunately there is nothing even remotely close, this app is very poor quality and on a score of 1 to 10 is about a 2 Looks like I will have to use the mobile for the foreseeable future.Version: 1.23.0
✓ Fabulous when it worksGreat graphics and info - when it works. So long as you don’t want/need current location or info in notification, then this app is good. Current location won’t stay on. Doesn’t update in notifications for today says “unable to load”. Deleted app and tried again but still no good..Version: 1.14.0
✓ New look not that good. Very inaccurateI I liked the older look as it had a better look. Was smaller and easier to understand. You used to do a quarter of a day but now like all other weather apps you try and be too clever and too local and fail miserably. You cannot predict the weather for every hour four days ahead. It keeps changing by the day. Your only accurate about an hour before when I can just look out of the window. All weather apps seem to suffer from this to be honest. . No change from the above. Not accurate but that’s endemic of these apps.Version: 2.14.0
✓ RemovingIt was my favourite weather app for many years. With the latest update it became horrible, the standard weather app now even better than this. Who designed it? It just looks sketchy.Version: 2.0.4
✓ App frozen like the weather in WinterIPhone 8 app does not work anymore - you open it and it’s frozen - can’t see the weather can’t click or scroll - app isn’t doing its main purpose. I have tried reloading still doesn’t work - please fix..Version: 1.13.0
✓ Horrible Design UpdateThis weather app used to be the best visually appealing of them all. The design, style and graphics of the icons and the overall aesthetic of the app was better than any other weather app I’ve tried. That was until after the most recent updates. Unfortunately I will most probably be moving on from this and finding a new weather app as it’s so much harder to read and uglier to view. As the saying goes: if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. In the recent update version notes, it mentions that it reads easier at a glance and make for a better experience throughout, but this is further from the truth. The new weather icons look incredibly childish. If this new design is kept and not reverted back to the old style, then there should at least be a toggle button in the settings along the lines of ‘switch to classic’ mode, for the (majority of) users who prefer the original design..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Fahrenheit?The app asks my location and then gives me results in US measurements? Why isn’t this app smart enough to provide metric degrees? Why isn’t the default Celsius?.Version: 2.16.1
✓ Removed due to Oath Privacy PolicyHad this app for years but, as someone who values privacy (a main reason I stick with iOS/iPhone), I have now removed it due to the change in Privacy Policy. The Oath Privacy Policy introduced across all Yahoo content is made in such a way that it is deliberately difficult to adjust your preferences and I don’t support such interfaces, so the app is now deleted from my iPhone. Shame as below is the previous 5 star review I had written several years prior. ———- This is a beautifully presented weather app both aesthetically pleasing & packed with info. I particularly like the background photos of each city you are monitoring as well as those from your local area. The pictures change given the time of day & current weather conditions. You can even add your own photos for consideration on Flickr by posting to a group called, "Project Weather".Version: 1.20.1
✓ Won’t show current location accuratelyI went on holiday for a few days 130 miles away 2 weeks ago and now it’s still showing my current location as if I’m still there. Even after updating app a few times, it still won’t show my current location accurately therefore I’ve deleted it from my phone.Version: 1.26.1
✓ Why does my location need to be on 24/7?I used to love this app but recently the widget stopped working and now only works if you have your location turned on (which drains battery life if kept on all the time and also allows apps to track your whereabouts). Yahoo Weather used to allow users to manually set their location in the app and have that be the default location displayed in the widget, but now the widget only work based on “current location” regardless of whatever location a user has manually set as their default location in the app. This means users are forced to turn on (and keep turned on) their location in their iPhone’s privacy settings in order to get the Yahoo widget to work, and I’m not doing that. It is disappointing because this app really did used to be awesome and easy, but now I’ll have to rely on a different app..Version: 2.7.0
✓ From nice and stylish to ugly. Deleted.Fire your graphic designer..Version: 2.12.0
✓ NooooH.Version: 2.0.12
✓ MrsFfanofweatherPApp stuck on permanent refresh. Using too much data and power in background. Can't access info on it. And Can't DELETE The Darn App now Either. I want to get rid of this app. Yahoo and Developers Do Something about this Now!.Version: 1.18.0
✓ Poor forecastNo rain in your forecast , and it rained.Version: 2.4.0
✓ Absolutely HORRIBLE updateI’ve been using this app on my iPad for a couple years and have LOVED it. This morning, I opened the app to find it’s been completely overhauled, updated, revamped. Honestly, this update is horrible. It looks like it was created by a grade school kid for some computer class. Absolutely HATE the app now. Deleted it. Now searching for a new Weather App..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Best weather app by farNot bad but needs to be a lot better to meet yahoo’s reputation or industry standards..Version: 2.15.0
✓ AdvertisingI don’t like ad so I deleted it immediately !.Version: 1.19.0
✓ One small(ish) complaintI realize that this is primarily a weather app, and as such it seems to perform well. But it’s also an aesthetic object, meant to enhance our experience of weather information, and in this it often fails. For the past few weeks it has fed me the same, very boring background picture on each of my chosen cities. Whenever I update the information it gives me the same boring picture again (it used to give me a new picture every time I updated the screen). I wouldn’t mind so much if the picture were a good one, but it’s a terrible picture - just a flat piece of ground at the very bottom and bland, grey sky above. Am I being punished for not having a Yahoo account? Did the world suddenly become flat and bland, with a grey sky? Who knows..Version: 1.12.2
✓ Enough to with the new BANNER ad!Instant delete and back to Apple’s stock weather app due to the over large and irritating banner ad halfway through page!.Version: 1.27.5
✓ Display color issueThe color of temperature number in widgets cannot been seen clearly. As the back ground picture is dark and the number is black color as well. Please change the color to white or something else so that the temperature number can be seen..Version: 1.26.0
✓ RadarOn your radar map it’s hard to read because even the storms are in green matching the land surface!.Version: 2.12.0
✓ Used to be really great....I really liked this app after I removed one that was way more ads than info. This one is starting to annoy me now 😞. I would like the older version that would allow personalized settings that would stay put even after closing the app. And getting really tired of the ads again.... Maybe time to look for another new one. Wouldn't mind paying a small fee to keep what I liked. But this is no longer that app 😞 Update...Still hating the ads 😡. Getting more frustrated with each new update. How about a pay version to REMOVE THE ADS?! And thanks for adding Corona virus back but I liked it at the top not mixed into the crappy ad space. If you want to do a positive thing how about adding the date to the days’ temps..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Used to be 5 starWhy exactly did you change the UI? There are a few issues here. The bars for each hour of the day... time is continuous and the graph for this should be as well. Nobody thinks about weather at the top of the hour. That area also used to integrate a clean view of precipitation probability. It’s lost. The hours of the day in each bar took me a minute or so to figure out. They are single numbers and not in time format. It is not intuitive. Also, the new “colorful” cloud and sun graphics in next section lack contrast and are seemingly bad for the color blind. This entire refresh seems to be design over function. You used to be five star and the only solid app yahoo had but now I’ll have to find another weather app. Remember when the app launched and the kudos it got? It was because the UI. You just erased that advantage and that is all that’s different from app to app. IMO, with this release you’ll lose some of your base (at least me) and the design lacks function so you’ll lose out to other apps for new installs. Remember when snap unnecessarily changed their design and nose dived? You were over 4 stars and your new designer might have harpooned you..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Warning about Privacy Settings!Thanks for not disclosing that you snuck in ad tracking, search history and location tracking by default. Very sneaky as this is NOT mentioned at all in your version updates. All users should go into the app’s internal settings > privacy settings and switch them off one by one. Like others have said, the new icons and font look awful. Congratulations, app deleted after 5 years!.Version: 2.0.15
✓ Regrettable RedesignVisuals have gone from being sophisticated and relaxing to childlike and cartoonish. Deleted..Version: 2.0.1
✓ I WishI wish the radar would work, I wish the rain was not the same or similar colour as the green land background, fix it, and it’s a great app…...Version: 2.15.0
✓ App Broken/DeadApp has been broken/dead x 1 month. It states “Updating” at the top of the page and “Unable to retrieve the forecast. Please check your connection” at the bottom of the page. It doesn’t update nor connect if you stay in the app. Please fix!!! I used to love this app & especially all the different photos that were submitted for each location and I used it daily. Deleting & reinstalling app does nothing to fix this issue. Was a 5 star app. Will update review to 5 stars if app is fixed..Version: 2.0.8
✓ The Ads are too muchI would give it a 5 star if there were NO ads. I would be willing to pay to get rid of them. Will be using an ad free Ap for weather.Version: 1.23.0
✓ From Best to Worst.This app just had a major transformation into something that is much less useful. Putting the awful presentation aside, there’s no longer any % for rain over the course of the day. To be honest, I don’t care if they put the rain info back. I’m deleting the app, as I clearly don’t care for the decisions that were made in this change. I can only imagine there’s a lot of ‘yes’ people involved in this design -if people could not stand up to the trashy decisions being made, then they don’t get my support. I can not see how is could be changed into to something salvageable..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Once gorgeous -- now junk ware with ads -- let me pay to remove the adsI loved this App. Then Yahoo Destroyed the GORGEOUS UI. Then Yahoo added horrible ads that truly distort the experience. I feel sad. And I'd gladly pay to kill the noise. Anyway I'd gladly pay to stop ads. Even $10 because I love this App. Now I can't stand it. Pollution..Version: 2.16.1
✓ InterfaceUsing 2.0.3. What used to be a simple and professional interface now looks like an app designed by an child. Revert back please. New font is terrible too. How do changes like this make it pass quality control??.Version: 2.0.3
✓ What could make a difference!!??Yahoo weather is my go-to; Numero uno. Next the NYTimes and puzzles and news and so on. For me, I always look at the weather with attendant moon, tides, air and natural phenomena. However, the Covid 19 has taken precedent to everything else and I sincerely am thankful for your daily updates on relative vital statistics on the county level, the state and America. However, there is a glaring omission that I feel could be easily corrected, which would be helpful and illustrate and underline the message. POPULATION NUMBERS and % I have a list of the population of each state and the county where my family and my friends live.l This gives me personally a more conclusive look at the concern I have logistically for family, for friends, for my world as a whole. I even have the populations of most of Europe, which inform me as to how California stacks up. The message is, that Pam Dixon is not unique or very different in many ways from millions of others who are probably writing in to tell you how they cherish their Yahoo Weather News, yet, there is something missing!! Thank you for being so ‘present’ for all of us, for we are all in this together. Happy Holidays! Pamela DixonThis never got ‘sent’. ? And now phone won’t ‘flip’ to other weather locations I have checked. Maybe a menu would work if the phone is dumbing down?!.Version: 2.5.0
✓ It’s raining!It’s raining & yahoo weather app isn’t even showing the storm we are getting!.Version: 2.14.0
✓ Useless predictions about the local weather.You have no problem giving steam bath heat weather predictions,but what is more important is rainfall locally,easy to say it’s 30c plus anytime,but your predictions about rainfall are pathetic,what’s the point of saying you can expect 40-50 per cent chance of rain,but we end up getting enough to fill a tea cup..Version: 2.6.0
✓ Strangely good, but snippet lacks informationThe app is strangely good and beautiful, with clean and accurate information. Very well designed. Sadly, the snippet doesn't have enough information and you need to open the app just to see basic forecast. That makes it course to useless for me..Version: 1.14.0
✓ Makeover has negatively impacted unique featuresIt's unfortunate that this app got redesigned. Pre-redesign it got 5stars, hands down. The original graph that combined temp, cloud, wind and rain was superior to any other app. Easy to scan, professional looking and super easy to get the weather data for the day/next 24 hours at a glance. The new design has simplified this both in terms of data presentation/visualisation and visual aesthetics in general. What previously looked like a data-driven service now looks like a tonka toy app for kids. As a UX designer myself, I struggle to inderstand the rationale behind this shift. It's now pulled out the precipitation graph and relied on simplified bars to represent temperature. The problem with this is that scanning the data is difficult now. I've given the change several weeks to adjust/settle with me, but I still think this app has lost what made it unique and useful. There's a few steps that can be taken to achieve former glory. I urge the design team to look at the previous design and features and bring them back into the new aesthetics. Loose the individual bars by joining them, angle the segments to bring back the ebb and flow of temperature change and reintegrate precipitation. Lastly the advertising! Offer an in-app purchase to remove them. The way you've gone full on tabloid with edge to edge paralax scroll ads is cheap and nasty..Version: 2.0.9
✓ Aug 2020: what was your design team thinking?What happened in your update? Where’s the data, the Coronavirus stats??! This looks like a kid’s book now. Ridiculous changes and design decisions in this update. It’s bulkier and gives less info at a glance. What a disappointment. This used to be my go to app. I loved its concise data, small hourly view of the weather, and general appearance. There’s little left from the original version to keep me returning now. I have no idea why you would ruin a good layout and design. Your design team missed what people want. With the most recent update this month (August 2020) The weather icons are chunky, and fill up the screen. No appeal whatsoever. The original app was beautiful to look at with local photos that changed about every 30 seconds, pulled in from Flickr. They gave a personal view of the area with a stunning overall effect. I loved checking the weather just to see the photos in an area, too. That changed a few years ago. Now I rarely see any local photos and the ones selected rarely change or have nothing to do with the region. Often they weren’t even taken in the same country. I have no idea why each update has become less appealing. What were you thinking? Two stars. Downgraded from five. I think the weather is about as accurate as it used to be. But I can get that elsewhere..Version: 2.0.11
✓ Why did the age rating change?Today I updated the app, and when I went to check the weather I couldn't find my app all of a sudden. I searched for the app in the App Store. Once I found it the download button said open. I clicked on the download button (that said open) and a message popped up on my screen. It said that I cannot use this app because of the age restrictions. I'm pretty sure this is because of my data plan. (It's one of the child ones.) I LOVED this app so much to begin with! I found the pictures to be beautiful and the weather forecast to be (decently) reliable. If there is anyone the age rating could be changed that would be amazing but I'd also understand if that's not possible! I'm still pretty confused why the age rating went up to a shocking 17+! It said it was for unrestricted web access, which is even more confusing. I will be giving this app three stars. The first star I took off is because the app only worked on WiFi which was really annoying because I'd use it in the car a lot to see how I should lighten my load. And I'm taking the other star off because when you make an app it should be usable for everyone, not just those who have data plans that are for over eighteen. I'm very disappointed that this age rating occurred. Overall though this was one of the very best apps I had on my phone, and I recommend it to my friends and family 24/7..Version: 2.0.7
✓ Great photos, poor metric conversions.Also the forecast temperatures almost always seem to be out of sync with other apps I use on other devices and - almost always wrong..Version: 1.23.0
✓ Don’t like new updateAfter last update App stop showing COVID cases, new design looks like a kids cartoon, app can’t show my correct location (before update was no issues). Already downloaded previously deleted Apple weather app. Yahoo weather app already out from my shortcuts..Version: 2.0.0
✓ Tracks you, impossible to restrict who tracks youLove this app on the iPhone for so long that I did not notice their user tracking policy has changed. so downloaded for the iPad and was given a consent form for some content/user tracking service called Oath! You have to agree to it to use the app. Clicking the link to the trackers, you get a whole load of the usual suspects who make the internet such a difficult place to navigate without being watched. They all feed to Google the blurb says and google distribution link is another list. Deleted..Version: 1.23.0
✓ LocationIt only does major cities I think it should have more towns.Version: 2.15.0
✓ Fahrenheit bug- please fix!!!!Agree with all other comments relating to this issue. I loved this app. It looked great and always worked at least up till the last update... Then suddenly we are all left feeling frustrated and annoyed that every time we open the app it shows the temp in Fahrenheit and not Celsius. What's going on? It doesn't matter how many times I set Celsius in settings after closing app and reopening I get Fahrenheit again!!! This is really irritating and I am now in search of a new weather app. Fix it please and I may start using it again..Version: 1.7.0
✓ Yahoo WeatherYahoo weather was really good when I first got it , but now is terrible. You can’t swipe from side to side to the next city. It is so annoying trying to do this. Very disappointed..Version: 2.0.13
✓ WeatherExcellent reporting , useful information usually correct as to the actual weather. I’m quite happy with the weather reporting.Version: 2.16.1
✓ I’ll just look outside....On the positive side I like that I can add and click on certain cities to see what they’re weather will be or that when traveling the app “usually” maintains good location services, but sadly more often than not—the forecasts aren’t very accurate. At home I can almost NEVER get active radar and sometimes can’t get any weather info at all. I can check and literally watch the apps forecast change, but like today the forecast called for no rain and partly sunny yet their radar clearly showed a band of showers (although it wouldn’t show active radar—again) it was pouring down rain and 10 degrees cooler than what the app showed. Sadly, this is typical for this app. It seemed pointless to give feedback when—apparently no one either reads reviews or does anything about the complaints. So, I’ll just look outside and check the temperature on our outdoor clock. Forget planning ahead..Version: 2.2.4
✓ Photo'sWhen I first downloaded this sight it had great photo's of my area and others in NZ now there isn't any, so not happy about that, please return the photo's, then I will give you 5 stars... Again please please put photo's back to all areas, like it was in the beginning....its a very good app but I am disappointed about the lack of photo's...I will defo give you 5 stars when you do...Version: 1.6.9
✓ Apple default App Way BetterDon’t waiste your time downloading.Version: 2.18.0
✓ Ads Annoying AdsGive us the ability to remove ads for a fee. Until then this app is deleted..Version: 1.27.0
✓ ExcellentDoes exactly what it is supposed to do and is reasonably accurate (which is presumably a comment on the source of data not the app!). Even better THERE ARE NO ADVERTS - this gets extra points. Revised review... The map display is not working properly. You only get random squares showing temperature, wind and cloud cover; the download doesn’t complete. I would like to send a screen shot but apparently not possible..Version: 1.19.0
