Weather Live° - Local Forecast for Negative User Reviews
✓ Looks aren’t everythingLooks great, and nice features if they worked. Unfortunately the weather displayed is very inaccurate and doesn’t pick up on many locations that other apps source data from. I’d probably subscribe if the data was reliable. Radar information isn’t available and overlays on the maps don’t work other than precipitation. Please put more into working functionality now you have the pretty design handled..Version: 7.2.8
✓ What a fall from grace.I’d been using the original App for ever, for all the time I’ve had iPhones , going on maybe 9 or 10 years, but it started crashing on opening so deleted and decided to try this version. Have to say that I am definitely not a fan of forced advertising, I don’t mind adds on the page that you can clock to view but apps that force you to view something before continuing is an absolute turn off for me. I’ll keep it installed for now, but will not be my go-to weather app anymore and will likely be a deletion if I need to free up space..Version: 6.18.0
✓ Shows hurricane warnings ... & updatesThis is helpful & informative ... However when you attempt to look at this update of hurricane warning you are pushed to a map and then bombarded with a series of pop-ups telling you to upgrade to the premium app now 2-3 I might of been able to overlook but to be fair I must've been bombarded with 15 pop-ups in less than 2 minutes.. if you don't want to allow people who are not on the premium upgraded version to see the maps then don't make it a part of the notifications that pops up on someone's device!!! I would never recommend this app to anyone. The developers need to do better!!.Version: 5.20
✓ Used to be goodI’ve had this app for a long time now (over 5 years) & the accuracy has gone completely downhill. For example, my forecast says it’s currently overcast with zero precipitation yet for the last hour (literally) it has been pouring rain with thunder & lightning. The “upgrades” to this app have been really disappointing. It’s a shame because I used to love the Weather Live app..Version: 7.2.7
✓ No goodSiking bad.Version: 7.16.0
✓ Why?Why would anyone download this nonsense and potentially pay for it? What is wrong with people?.Version: 7.16.1
✓ Still prefer the Apple weather app.Reply to devs: I’m not going to both contacting support as they’ll just say the old app is no longer supported. I have tried in the past to report bug with the original app & the emails were either ignored or I was informed of the above. The problem affects all locations. It works to pic up the first location when setting up the app but does not pick up any other locations & yes location services are on. Not accurate. Often says there’s no rain when it is raining or thunder when there’s none. I send feedback on this every time but app still inaccurate. I would return to the original weather live app but this has bugs & does not change the weather when I move location..Version: 7.19.0
✓ Glitching AGAIN!I deleted this app a few years back after having it for several years because it crashed completely. I kept hoping it would get back to functional but after six months I gave up. I just recently saw that it was available in the App Store and I immediately deleted the replacement weather and ought a subscription. It’s already glitching again and I am thinking I made a mistake. I can’t afford to pay for two different plans so I’d like to see this one working right ASAP. I don’t know how else to contact you people and when I tried to connect this way a few days ago your system kept indicating every user ID I tried was already taken. I found that suspect but I am trying again anyway. Wow, now even this isn’t really working. It’s a beautiful app but I NEED A RELIABLE, FUNCTIONING WEATHER APP. It is now a full week since I last attempted to contact you people and your app isn’t working at all. I guess Apalon just isn’t a top rated organization and you don’t know what you’re doing. I really hope you you can get it together. I will investigate other avenues of communication as well as warn everyone I can that signing up for your service is perhaps a risk of security and possibly a scam at worst or a poor investment at best. I am very disappointed and sorry I let go of the premium service I had with another weather app..Version: 7.8.1
✓ Wind speed is not even close to accurateI’ve tried many weather apps. Whenever I find one I like it seems the next update messes it up and I have to go looking again. I decked to try this one. I live in Michigan on on one of the Great Lakes. Our backyard actually backs up to the lake. Wind speed and direction information is very important. I need to know the current data as well as an accurate forecast because our backyard can flood and we often need to put up extensions on our sea wall to minimize the flooding. The past 24 hours our wind speed has been from 14 to 18 mph from the NE (got the correct info from another source)which can put massive amounts of water over our wall if we don’t have the extensions on top. The app has given me info that the wind is 2 to 3 mph the entire time of this weather event despite (and this is a good thing) giving me an emergency warning notice for shoreline flooding. The developers need to fix the wind speed glitch, and it would be much more dependable and useful for me..Version: 5.13
✓ Lovely to look at but . . .There’s a lot to like about this app—the paid version—like the animated radar map, the extended forecast, and the beautiful backgrounds. But I have three major issues: First, it always sets my location for a nonexistent city, Belleview, TN. I have no idea where it thinks I am. Second, the 14-day temp projection doesn’t match the hour-by hour projection. For example, the daily projection might show a high of 37 on a given day, but the hour-by-hour shows temps reaching 42 on that day. Also, it would help if that long 14-day scroll had the date more obviously attached to each hour; it can be confusing to pinpoint exactly what date you’re looking at. Finally, the third and most serious issue: The app simply isn’t accurate. At this moment, the daily current conditions says my area is experiencing light rain, and the radar map shows medium to hard rain over the entire area. In fact, it is sunny/partly cloudy with no rain in sight. Every other weather app’ radar is completely different from Weather Live’s..Version: 7.2.3
✓ HorridI loaded forty dollars iTunes onto my phone I tried the paid version for a day and then deleted it thinking that was it but no it’s taken the money out of my account and I don’t have the app anymore don’t want to put more money on my phone as it will keep sucking please fix this issue.Version: 5.13
✓ Pure crap!!Pure crap!! Money grabbers! Soooo inaccurate!!!.Version: 7.2.8
✓ Good weather app but.....I like this app but I'm over the adds that constantly pop up. Every time I open this app I get numerous pop ups and Ive had enough. There are other weather apps that are just as good that I don't constantly get adds in my face for things I have no intention of down loading or paying for. Am deleting!!!.Version: 5.8
✓ There’s better weather appsThe weather app is okay if you have the free version. Premium upgrade is not worth it. Accuweather is better..Version: 7.16.3
✓ 날씨지금 날씨는 좋고 파란하늘인데 날씨 앱에는 구름이라고 되있음..Version: 7.4.3
✓ Publicité agressiveBelle application mais développeur assoiffé d'argent. Publicité bien trop abondante et agressive et trop cher pour une simple application météo..Version: 5.4
✓ Very nice but heavy battery drainThis is very nice, lots of details, even sun/moon and wind. This is very good. Ability to add other locations, animations on or off. Very nice. However, it is heavy on the battery, even with animations off, now only beneath safari for usage and it’s been looked at a quarter of the time. Please reduce its battery drain. Also, I would like to upgrade to remove ads, as this app is good enough for me to consider upgrading, but you only offer subscription - I want to buy with a one-off payment only. *update* after a few days, the forecasts are not accurate not even for the present moment. It says sun but it’s raining and full cloud cover. Other apps I have used were not this wrong. I have deleted it. Answer to developer - thanks, i dont want to spend £5 on a weather app! The inaccuracies are because you are using a weather station that is 40 miles away, and here, the weather is quite different region to region. I’ve deleted your app..Version: 5.8
✓ Don’t think it works in AustraliaI put this on thinking it would give me alerts while I am travelling. The second day I got an alert Thunderstorm warning. Well the storm was 24 hrs before the alert. Then it showed up as cloudy. Not a cloud in the sky. Tonight another thunderstorm warning. Well no thunderstorm last night. Not going to happen tonight maybe it is for tomorrow night. Just unreliable. Sorry guys.Version: 5.8
✓ Not workingMy app has stopped working. When I open it, it stays on its Home Screen for a second then closes. The Apalon help page in the App Store offers no way to contact them to resolve the issue. So I am left with this review to state my problem. And it won’t let me give zero stars. A non working app is not worth one star, but I have to give it one just so I can submit this “review”. When it works, I love the app and would give it 4 or 5 stars..Version: 7.1.1
✓ Beware of being charged for this appI downloaded this app thinking that it looked good. But I then discovered that I had been given a 3 days free trial, after which I would be charged a monthly subscription. This was not made clear before downloading app, otherwise I would not have done so. Also the app is not appearing in the manage my subscriptions section in my settings, meaning I cannot cancel the subscription. It’s going to take me more than 3 days to sort this out, meaning I will end up paying for the app. I do not want this app. I think it is very bad of the developers to trick people into subscribing for something when it has not been made clear at the outset..Version: 5.8
✓ Uninstall is not cleanDownloaded your Weather Live app and it has installed itself at the top of the control centre screen. Uninstall/Deleted the app and Weather Live location app remains. Does this mean you continue to collect location information from users even with the app “deleted”???.Version: 7.15.0
✓ Okay...it’s good, but not any better than othersIf not for the annoying ads and pop-ups, I’d of rated this weather application higher. But to get rid of those annoyances, this App expects to charge you $9.99 per year. While that’s certainly not expensive, ultimately its still JUST A WEATHER APPLICATION, NOTHING MORE. There’s plenty of weather apps are readily available online for free, WITHOUT any of the annoying ads contained herein. So unless you’re just dying to part with $9.99 a year for nothing gained, I suggest that you download one of the many totally FREE weather applications and donate that $9.99 to a charity of your choice, as they’ll probably make better use of that money than supporting another overly rich shmuck. Obviously I’ll be deleting this application, as there’s others that are considerably better that are completely free. And yes, I’ve already been donating money saved from finding outstanding FREE applications vice paying for services that are equally as good for free..Version: 6.12.0
✓ Who would pay for the weather?Ps. Update your app icon.Version: 7.2.11
✓ Love the App - two bummers though...This app is great. I like it much more than all of the other weather apps and I believe it is much more accurate. It also recognizes cities that other apps did not. I also LOVE that there is a setting that shows the current temperature of where you are in the upper right hand corner of the apps icon (just like if you had 5 unread texts or voicemails, etc.). That said, two bummers. First, there are SO many pop-ups and advertising that is actually becomes annoying. Second, as an iPhone owner, I use the Widget page a lot. (Swipe left from your first "page" of apps). On the Widget page, you can only view the temperature in two hour increments, rather than hourly. It is not the end of the world, but it is a bummer. I am hoping that the developers will fix the Widget setting, as I use that the most and have no intentions of BUYING an app about Weather!.Version: 5.4
✓ Loved until crashedI’ve loved this app and used it faithfully and daily for awhile. Even earlier today, it helped. Now, every time I open this app, it crashes. When I went to the Apple store to check for an update, it was suggested to be downloaded from the cloud. Odd! I started the download abs checked on it later. Upon opening the “new” app, it, too, crashed immediately. I hope y’all fix this issue quickly! Thank you. Update: Thank you for responding. I had already discovered the app was up again. I see you’ve made major changes to the app in its downtime. You added more ads, made it more like another weather app/channel I no longer use for this reason- you seem more interested in money than in getting out weather updates. Every time I open the app, I get an invitation to Premium BEFORE I can see my weather! Which do you think is more important? An impending storm or you making money. Come on! Be a good app and go back to being beautiful and efficient! You were far more appreciated back then ... 2 days ago. Unimpressed by the newest update. Taking your 4 stars down to 3. :(.Version: 7.1.2
✓ Bad appKeep asking me to buy Pro and I don’t want to.Version: 7.2.7
✓ Pop up ads make this app annoyingThis app could be great if it were not for the annoying pop up ads. I realize the app is free, and ads are what support the free version of the app. However, when you are trying to look at the weather and the screen changes over to an ad that you have to wait for a few seconds before closing, it gets frustrating. Sometimes those ads open up my internet browser and tell me viruses were detected. While I understand the ads cannot be removed in the free version, it would be better if they were within the weather app itself, like at the bottom of the screen or something. The only other thing that could make this app better was if they provided an hour by hour forecast instead of three hours. Where I live the weather changes constantly hour by hour especially in the winter. I drive a bus and it would be nice to know what to expect throughout my shift instead of trying to guess based off of a three hour increment..Version: 5.6
✓ Just a rip offAs soon as I downloaded this and opened it, immediately I was presented with an add for some oldie space N Vader's type game! Took me ages to close the ad also, then presented with another one not 8 secs after… Also a 3 day trial isn’t enough time to call it a “trial”, as it’s just not enough time to properly go through everything. Not to mention why anyone would pay an subscription for a weather app when there’s loads of better free or one time paid weather apps. Looked good too, especially for the live activities up on the dynamic island which I couldn’t find btw. Avoid!!!!.Version: 7.17.0
✓ Changed business model - AVOID!I’ve been using this app forever, now they’ve changed their business model - without any prior warning - and are wanting a hefty subscription ($7 per week, $29 annually) with constant (whenever the app is launched) and annoying (full screen timed lock out) barraging to unlock what was formally for free. Even ‘unlock for free’ buttons take you to the subscription page. AVOID! I’m going back to Apple’s weather..Version: 7.2.0
✓ Great interface but......accuracy questionableThis app has a lot of great features like showing the temperature without having to open it but today the app forecast for my area states 0% chance of rain when it is actually sprinkling rain as I write this and the black clouds are building. On checking the B.O.M. forecast it states 10% chance of rain!!! Far more accurate I think..Version: 5.8
✓ Too PriceyI understand with the free version ads are necessary. But the volume and sheer overwhelming nature they appear is not appealing at all. I feel they greatly took away from the functionality of the app. They are very pushy and forced making me just close the app sometimes due to frustration of frequency. They launch your browser and take forever to dismiss, banner at the bottom and maybe midway down the page that were not pop-ups would make the ease of use and flow of the app feel more organic. Secondly and maybe more importantly that with so many free apps out there, the weekly fee of $1.99 is just flat out too much!! On that alone I wouldn’t and couldn’t recommend this app to friends. I hope you take the time to consider reformatting the ad display. And maybe adjust the price to appeal to a wider market. Thank you for your time..Version: 5.8
✓ Poor weather predictions.The graphics are nice but the weather predictions are terrible. So unreliable. The companies response about how we should tell them the weather by sending it-I do- but it doesn’t actually help with the issue of why we need a weather app in the first place-to predict and tell us the UPCOMING weather. I live in Tunbridge Wells, Kent and the specific problem was, it told me there would be thunderstorms and lightning days prior to Monday and still said it would happen on Monday and it never did. It was a fair day and a little rain in the afternoon. A few weeks ago it said it would snow heavily almost a week before it actually did..Version: 5.8
✓ AnnulerJe me suis fait avoir car je ne veux pas payer pour ça.Version: 7.16.1
✓ Awe fullDon't buy this app the worst forecasts ever not even close to the conditions in the area If I could get a refund I would.Version: 7.17.3
✓ Beware of advertsWhilst accepting that I will get ads as I have not paid for the ad free I do not accept that you should be allowing ads that direct you to web sites that are classed by Norton as risky or dangerous. You must be more selective in the ads you accept. The positioning of the ads means that it is easy to accidentally click on ads when using iPhones. The app itself works well though I’m not sure how accurate the local information is As the data sometimes differs from my local weather station. Thank you for your response but this does not address the situation. The problem is that you are allowing advertisers with dangerous and unsafe websites. You must stop these people advertising with you as you are risking damage to your customers equipment by allowing these risky web sites to appear in your app. Allowing advertisers with dangerous web sites is irresponsible..Version: 7.12.0
✓ Better weather apps for free.Every time you go to use it the app tries to force a subscription down your throat…there a better weather apps for free..Version: 7.8.1
✓ Reports contradictory chance of precipitationNice layout but obnoxious in free version due to pop ups and had a fatal flaw in how the chance of rain is reported that will leave you trapped in the rain without an umbrella. For example, today’s forecast says 10% chance of rain overall but when broken down by periods of the day it’s as high as 50%. FYI to developers the maximum chance that users will see rain that day is equal the max chance it will rain at any point in the day. No wonder I’ve repeatedly gotten caught in the rain because I’ve looked in the morning and thought it wouldn’t rain because this app says the chance of rain for the day is ZERO. Right now 6:27 PM in Manhattan on Oct 23 your widget says chance of rain zero pct on the collapsed screen. It’s raining and when expanded you widget says chance of rain 40% at 7:00 PM..Version: 5.15
✓ Would be great if not for the ridiculous amount of adsAnytime you open it there’s a 10 second ad. If they were just banners it would be fine, but it forces you to sit through it before you can access the app..Version: 7.4.0
✓ What a waste of time and money!This app is a complete waste of time and money. The free version is annoying because of silly ads every where, the app features are not that good, actually you could get most of these features in BOM application for FREE, additionally this app you can’t select the suburb or town, only the major cities like Sydney are available. Don’t waste your time and money on this useless app. install the BOM application it’s far better..Version: 7.2.6
✓ Nice to look atLove this app; use it at night as a clock. I love the holiday theme but disappointed that it only works on the circle view. I use the hybrid view as it has the best clock display; would love it if you could include hybrid view with your themes..Version: 7.2.11
✓ Charging for TAXPAYER-SUPPLIED DATAAll the info supplied by this good looking app comes from US government's National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration an important agency that saves thousands of lives a year from tornados hurricanes and the like. Thats why we use our tax dollars to pay for it. These days, a part-time web designer/IT firm and a server cost next to nothing - this nice app should cost users @$ .99 to buy, service forever. Five Star design, 0 stars for the greedheads who can't get. it through their skulls that hundreds of thousands of us would pay a small one time fee for presentation pf additional data without ads, and they're losing with an annual fee. Thin I'll dum this for a free coy of Firefox and a bookmark. The "fox is on the hone and bookmarks don't take up save..Version: 5.4
✓ Almost the best, but...This app is frustrating in that it has by far the best interface for both a quick summary of the weather and for looking at the longer term, but unfortunately it is consistently wrong by about 2 degrees C. It regularly reports moderate to heavy snow, yet I look out of the window to zero snow. I regularly receive ice warnings, yet I go outside and it’s clearly not freezing. It always errs towards a pessimistic view, which contradicts the Met office and other weather apps. I keep clinging on to this app hoping it will become more accurate. Lastly, inaccuracy aside, I’d purchase this app to get rid of the overly invasive advertising, but it’s way too expensive!.Version: 5.8
✓ MisleadingThe App Store page seems to suggest that the app is free to use. But that is not the case. You can download it without payment but once you open it are required to subscribe. 3 day trial leads into automatic subscription unless you cancel. Can’t try it out without signing up for a subscription..Version: 7.2.11
✓ Not accurateThis app only shows rain. If there is a chance of rain in one 24 hour period the app shows rain. Instead if showing sun which will happen most of the day. Depressing and inaccurate. Deleting now..Version: 7.6.0
✓ WeatherToo much advertising!!.Version: 5.4
✓ Confusing and expensive pricing structureThe IOS store in app purchase section gives pricing for both Pro and Premium versions with no explanation of each. Also says Premium includes RainScope which I was interested in trying out. So tried the 3 day trial. RainScope non existent so description in Apple Store is incorrect. Still confused by differences between Pro and Premium. For what I saw in the trial never worth what they are expecting you to pay. Cancelled trial to avoid being caught by the subscription charge.Version: 7.16.0
✓ Right but wrong information jWhen you look at the future weather it might just show up as rain. For example - sat- rain. With a cloud and rain for the picture. Yet in reality there are only a couple chances in the morning before you even wake up like 3:am that is gunna rain and makes it sound like it’s gunna rain all day. and than it tells you hourly it’s gunna be sunny but when you see the icon for the hole day it says rain. It makes you think the whole day it will rain but reality there are a couple chances and most of the day it will say sunny out with no clouds. So fix it. Maybe put a sun with a cloud and a rain drop and say early showers or something. Mine says rain Saturday, literally two chances early morning then sunny. Be smart and say Saturday will be sunny. Not hard what’s most likely to happen that day and put it as the icon. I’m a farmer and rely on the weather so when I need rain and it looks like it gunna rain all day and In reality it’s a small chance before I even get up is crap. If it’s gunna rain that day show it but if it’s gunna be sunny show it to. Don’t give me information from the small chances of rain and make it look like it’s gunna rain all day. . Rant over.Version: 7.2.7
✓ Give it a chance…..Been in this app for barely 30 seconds and already I’m being asked to review. That’s after consistent pop ups and ads to sign up to the pro version. I haven’t had a chance to check out any of it as each time I click to see what something is, I’m directed elsewhere. Awful first experience of it. Maybe if you gave people a proper free trial where they can try the app ad-free without interruption for 48 hours, you may get more people buying it..Version: 7.16.3
✓ Beautiful and worthlessLooks great, wonderful layout - and it might even give you an accurate forecast of cloud cover. Of course in the same way a frog could tell you, or scryer stones, or maybe the arrangement of lines on the back of my paternal grandmother’s hand. Really all of these methods would give approximately the same accuracy in results. I just spent more in gas to go look at clouds instead of stars than the premium version of this app cost. All for a pretty app that is just wildly dull when it comes to getting it right. Save your $20, for a mere whatever you feel like donating I’ll tell you what I think the weather will be BUT I’ll also tell you how good you look in that shirt. Sure it’s just a plain shirt but it fits you just right. See? Feels good. Feels a lot better than stargazing at nothing on a “clear” night. Bless this app’s heart I’m more angry than I should be. Furious even. Stayed up late, watch the cloud forecast go to completely clear - nothing at all. Got excited, caffeinated, grabbed my photography gear and drove an hour outside of town so the city lights wouldn’t drown out the NOTHING AT ALL BECAUSE THE ONLY THING IN THE SKY WAS CLOUDS. AGAIN. Well, fool me once - shame on you. Fool me twice, I write a review..Version: 7.15.1
✓ I wanted to see what this app look like but the ads prevented thatI was curious to see if this was any good and may have been happy to pay the premium costs. Unfortunately the bombardment of ads and push to go to the pro version meant that I couldn’t see any of the functionality. It’s a pity because it may have been a good product but I’m not willing to buy without seeing what it could be like..Version: 7.2.8
✓ Look elsewhere… loaded with adsThis app appears to be more interested in money than beauty. it is loaded with ads. the subscription fees are quite high. the built in iOS 15 Weather App is a much better choice with no ads or fees..Version: 7.2.11
✓ Non stop begging for upgrade and “no ads” optionsTalk about no such thing as a free lunch!! If you try and use the free version, its constantly begging you to upgrade and also has a full screen pop up link to get rid of ads. It tries to take u to a web page to buy adblockers. Then it hits you with a phoney countdown timer with an extra discount on the annual fee. One of the most persistently annoying “free” apps I’ve ever come across. UNINSTALL IMMEDIATELY!!!!.Version: 7.5.1
✓ Reverse temperaturesShowed that it’s going to be 12°C at midday but 20°C at midnight in New Zealand in October 2019. I’ve tried deleting then re-downloading the app but was still incorrect. It corrected itself after 2-3 weeks..Version: 6.10.0
✓ Would have been nice…But being forced to get a subscription JUST to see if it will help me???!!!!! Sorry! Not happening..Version: 7.13.0
✓ Visually appealing but overwhelmed by advertisingThe app is visually attractive but not always intuitive to navigate. This isn’t helped by the constant, intrusive and overwhelming advertising in the free version. I understand there’s a need for revenue but this was just over the top. Some very strange forecasts were noted ... things such as extremely low temperatures and thunderstorms predicted when no other forecasts mentioned anything similar and the predicted weather didn’t eventuate..Version: 5.8
✓ What happened?I paid for this app some time ago. I had to reinstall as it kept crashing. I was ten forced to choose between a premium or free trial. Restoring previous purchases does not work. Not paying twice for the weather. Deleted.Version: 6.18.0
✓ Not even closeI had 10 and over degrees discrepancy between app and actual weather..Version: 7.19.0
✓ Overly expensive piece of garbageJust don’t even bother. Way better options out there that cost less than this app..Version: 7.2.8
✓ Not happy about adds on your siteWhenever the app shows,I cannot see the bottom of the screen because google has adds covering it, and it won’t go even when I say I don’t want to see it again, keeps coming up, most infuriating hate it..Version: 6.12.0
✓ No long term free option!I couldn’t get to use this except by a 3-day free trial or subscription! As I was about to delete it, I got a notification for ‘free option’ but that link took be to a ‘reduced subscription’! Update 13July22. After response from the developer, I got to use the free version but this is frequently interrupted with the ‘upgrade’ option. Yes, as before, this only requires to tap the ‘X’ in the top left of the screen, but this X doesn’t appear for a few seconds….annoying!.Version: 7.7.1
✓ More ads than contentSo many ads I and forced subscription messages in the first few minutes of using the program. It’s a bit ridiculous. How about backing off for a day or two so you don’t seem so desperate for revenue and let the user actually experience the app? Developer’s response makes it clear they don’t get it..Version: 7.12.0
✓ Slow to refresh and needs some improvementsTemperature on badge doesn’t refresh frequently enough. Basically, you can’t rely on it, and actually need to open the app in order to know the current temperature. For those who use Celsius, there should be better way of indicating that the temperature is in the negative on the badge, such as reading “110” for -10, since you can’t have a negative number on the badge. Big difference between 10C and -10C. Otherwise, you need to frequently open the app and wait. Also, it would be good to know when dawn is. Early morning people such as runners would want to know when there is first light rather than when the sun gets above the horizon (sunrise). Otherwise it is OK..Version: 6.12.0
✓ Bait & Switch?I paid for this app a while back and went to download it on a different device but when I did I got endlessly hassled to subscribe and constantly bombarded with ads. Since I previously paid for Weather Live I tried to restore purchases, ya know like every other app that goes to a subscription grandfathers in those that paid, not here. What they did was really really crappy they discontinued the old app for the exact same app now charge for it yearly regardless if the consumer already paid for it. I don't know if this is illegal it's certainly greedy and immoral. I would advise any reading this to avoid apalon apps going forward. I'm really disappointed in this company. I am aware that I can download the old version of the app that is no longer supported and hasn't been updated in quite some time. Why don't you reinstate the paid version and just push out identical updates at the same time? There are tons of apps that have free versions with iap's and paid versions on the same release number..Version: 6.18.0
✓ Looks nice but ... location way offNot sure I can use an app which has my location at a minor place more than 20kms away. There is a major town closer than that. You need to get your AUSTRALIA Locations sorted. When typing in a location every other conceivable place in the world comes up first. And yes location is ON. Developer response was to turn off locations and enter my postcode. Hmmm ... guess what? Australian post codes aren't recognised ... unless overnight the pole shift occurred and I'm now living in Bulgaria, Spain or France. Also my nearest major town is not there. Only my nearest city and our weather is quite different. Deleting app again..Version: 5.6
✓ Consistently wrong tempsI love the look and feel of this app but I’ve found that I can’t rely on it for accurately reporting temperatures. It’s a real disappointment. Update: the response indicated they’d like to correct this (temps being off 8-9 degrees at times) but when I attempted to follow up they directed me to “report weather” which honestly doesn’t do much of anything for correcting temps off that much. It’s super unfortunate. If it’s accurate for you then awesome but make sure you are using something to double check. I’d your temp says 46 and it’s actually 38 or 38... that’s a pretty significant fail. Update: I let my paid version lapse due to the inaccuracies. The free version is basically unusable due to the extreme number of ads and subscription update requests. It’s such a nice app and worked well for so long. I wanted to give it a chance and see if the issues were resolved. But it’s just not worth the effort as a free app and I refuse to pay for a weather app that can’t get even the temperatures right. So many others do. Very disappointed..Version: 7.2.7
✓ DisappointedI have been looking for a new weather app ever since Apple pulled the plug on Dark Sky. I had high hopes for Weather Live. I like the layout of the information but have been frustrated with the reliability of the info provided. After buying my subscription I noticed the temps reported were always different than other apps and my own weather instruments. I have found myself going to other sources to confirm the info and if that’s the process what good is it? I live in North Florida so I check the temp and the heat index frequently… every morning I see temps that are higher but close to the actual temp but what excites me is the heat index of 32° which has been listed every morning. Not sure about the accuracy of that..Version: 7.17.4
✓ Pay to get a weather forecast???You must be kidding me.Version: 7.2.7
✓ Constant ads & pop upsCouldnt try it without constant pop ups trying to gete in a sibscription.Version: 7.17.0
✓ Where's the rain?After Weather Underground completely changed their layout, I needed to find a new weather app. I tried a few others, they just weren't quite right. Then I found this app and I thought my search was over. It looked like it had everything I wanted in a beautiful layout. Nothing is as good as WU was before the change, but this was good enough I was even ready to shell out for the subscription. Until I looked for the rain forecast, and it's nowhere to be found. The home screen can show you the current rain, but I can look outside and see that. You can dig around to find the forecast for the day, but it's not up top where it should be. And the weekly forecast doesn't have it at all. What kind of weather app doesn't show you the rain chances for the week? Alas, my search for another app continues....Version: 6.12.0
✓ UnaccurateIt is so unaccurate there’s a thunderstorm and it gives cloudy skies.Version: 7.7.1
✓ Crashes after a few seconds...I’ve had this app for many years, but this morning when I opened it to check the weather it crashed. It was the first time it had done that. Kept trying to open it but constantly crashed so I uninstalled it and installed it again. Now you have to subscribe to use it. That’s not a problem in itself, but after installing it again it constantly crashes after about 10 seconds. All other apps are fine on my phone so I guess it’s Weather Lives’ app that has an issue. Please solve this issue then I’ll use it again because it was good..Version: 6.18.0
✓ Deceptive “free trial”Editing this review to point out that many apps seem to be using this bait-and-switch model. I did like the app, and this developer is only following the standard practice. Still not happy about it, but I have no complaints with the app itself. ====original review==== They essentially trick you into a premium subscription that starts automatically in 3 days unless you 1) start reading the fine print and realize they intend to charge your account and 2) can figure out how to cancel in time. It’s a bit complicated, not at all intuitive — Apple is at fault for making it complicated but this developer exploits that. I actually like the app and the forecast was accurate for my area. I’d have considered the premium subscription IF they were up front and very clear about the pricing options, and offered a trial that is truly “free”. But the deceptive bait and switch, even if commonly accepted as standard practice among app developers, is a big turn off..Version: 5.14
✓ Not very usefulThis app is different from other weather apps as it doesn't provide weather reports based on your current location. For example, the built-in weather forecast on iOS will show the current weather based on your suburb and automatically switch to that area's weather. However, this app only displays weather for cities. For instance, if you live in Western Australia, it will only show Perth's weather, regardless of your actual location. If you want to check the weather for your specific suburb, you have to manually add it yourself..Version: 7.17.3
✓ Annoying drums audioI have been really loving this app and the feature set. However, the drummer audio is annoying and there appears to be no way to silence this even after turning off notifications. Great incentive to delete the app from iPhone.Version: 7.15.0
✓ Weather predictionsHow about trying to be more accurate. Your weather prediction are more often incorrect than not. Makes your app useless..Version: 7.17.0
✓ Too priceyAll those price fouger who want subscription rather than simply selling an app arw too greedy..Version: 7.17.2
✓ Ads diminishLike the presentation, probably the capabilities, although I felt I couldn’t get to them because of the advertising. Prefer the environment and climate change Canada app.Version: 7.16.3
✓ Heat warning?Why is 32 considered a heat warning in August , seems a bit odd. That what temp it has been for 50 years..Version: 7.8.1
✓ No family sharingThis is the first time I have purchased an app that I couldn’t share with my family. I have 6 members in the family and I can’t pay for 6x subscriptions. I ended up buying 2 (the second by mistake on an alternative device). Needless to say at the subscription will not be renewed and already having to look for an alternative. Response from the developer was to change the whole family to one AppleID. For this flippant / useless suggestion I have reduced the app to 1 star.Version: 7.16.2
✓ Too clutteryFirst of all setting it up was frustrating. At first I thought I had to pay. It gave me 2 options. A free 3 day trial at like 3.99 a WEEK after that or X amount per year or something. I didn’t realize there was an option to have a free version at first. But there is a box to click the x to get out of that screen. Don’t get hooked into paying for weather apps. It’s crazy! The app my phone came with has no ads. I just was looking for something a little different. Second of all this app has way too much on the main screen. Scroll and scroll and it’s just a mess. I do like the buttons on the section that shows temp/rain/wind. That was nice. But in the tools area it shows units of how stuff is read and one of them is pressure. That’s important to me because I get severe migraine due to pressure changes. So having a heads up is nice but I don’t see anywhere on the main page where it actually SHOWS pressure. Again, it might be there somewhere but it’s just too cluttery. I won’t keep this app. The main info I was looking for (pressure) isn’t even there. Oh..and ads... plenty of weather apps with out pop up ads. I can handle little ads at the bottom or top of the screen but ones I have to watch?.. no way..Version: 7.2.0
✓ Massive Visual Appeal but....This app goes above & beyond in visual representation of data. Which in & of itself is quite an accomplishment. Especially when you consider this is (or should be) the same data every other wether app is reporting. By providing multiple layout options, customizable features, & an outstanding widget; this app definitely sets itself apart from the ever expanding weather apps group. That being said, I am disappointed with the interactive radar being restricted, available only with a premium subscription. Considering that’s a key component for myself, it’s doubtful I will keep the app. Personally, while I do greatly enjoy other points, they don’t carry enough weight to justify me paying for a subscription. Hopefully the designers will roll out something in the future which will fulfill my “must haves” AND maintain the outstanding visual appeal 🤞🏻.Version: 5.15
✓ No restore purchasesI bought this back in 2017 and i still have to pay for pro?.Version: 7.5.1
✓ AwfulThis is by far the most inaccurate weather app I have, so will be deleting it. I have never found it remotely accurate over the last 4 months and completely inaccurate during the last week or so during extreme weather. I’ve been contacted about this review and I stand by my original review as I’m constantly giving them the actual weather in the area that I am in. Tonight it says it’s -4 degrees when in fact it’s + 5 and pouring with rain. Last night it told me we were having heavy snow despite my reporting back to them that it was a clear sky. I now use weather radar and it’s 99% accurate for the area that I’m in..Version: 5.8
✓ WeatherThis weather network is not accurate at all!!! It was a low of 20 degrees that day and this app said it was a low of 2 degrees. Big difference !.Version: 5.4
✓ Good but not....Okay, down to business. Firstly, a hundred points for aesthetics. Lovely. ☺️ Secondly, WHY do you need to pay to see the rain graphs??? You can see the hurricanes BUT you need to pay to see exactly where they are on the map. ???????? Too much paying, care more for people getting help with the weather than money. SeRiOuSlY, wHaT tHe HeCk, Be BeTtEr PeOpLe, NoT mOnEy-HuNgRy IdIoTs..Version: 7.1.2
✓ New version is awfulAbsolutely hate the new version that came out. It’s so congested and so confusing. And it doesn’t record proper information. Can’t even figure out how to submit the right information like you could before. And all these pop-up ads are getting ridiculous. And that is occurring because they want you to pay to remove the ads, which I’m not doing especially the way the application looks right now. It’s horrendous..Version: 7.0.0
✓ Do not purchase!! This app looks good but performs badI have absolutely no problem paying for an app that gives the user a good experience and delivers the use as purported. I’m afraid this app does not fit the bill it charges you. It is reasonable for any user to be given an opportunity to try before buying. With the constant add Popups ( every 2 seconds) the delays in the cancel x appearing, the use of the purchase functions appearing my stealth trying to catch the user out, are just some of the traps this app brings when you are legitimately assessing the app is simply wrong and against the laws (in this country at least). I will be writing to Apple seeking its removal from the App Store!! Do not buy, in fact, do not even use the free version. It will make you pay!!.Version: 7.2.5
✓ Forced subscription signupI installed the app to try it out and am not happy to see that you have to sign up for the free trial with automatic payments in order to even evaluate the app. I don’t like games where developers are hoping that you forget to cancel the trial in three days so that they make money off you.Version: 7.2.11
✓ RIP OFFBe very careful this app auto renews a subscription I didn’t ask for and it does this every week!!!! As far as I’m concerned it is stealing £2.79 on a weekly basis. Total con do not download. As for your standard response I DID NOT AUTHORISE ANY SUBSCRIPTION! Which is why Apple gave me a full refund. So you can try and smooth it over all you want. Maybe if your poorly preforming app didn’t have as many pop ups trying to relieve people of their money every 5 seconds you wouldn’t need to try and trick people into a subscription, people may genuinely subscribe. (If the price wasn’t so extortionate that is).Version: 5.15
✓ It seems to be crashingI’ve used this app for years with zero problems, until today. When I click on the app, it comes up for a few seconds (enough to see what the temperature is) then it crashes..Version: 6.18.0
✓ So many adsThere are so many ads that using this app is frustrating. Downloaded it an less than two minutes later I deleted it..Version: 7.12.0
✓ Weather all wrong!Weather Live has been my go to forecast but this week it is no use at all - seems to be sending some guesses. It says it is 18 degrees outside today and it is actually obviously only 8 degrees, as confirmed by the other weather apps. Huge difference! It has spectacularly failed to forecast the last few really cold nights too. What has happened?.Version: 6.3
✓ Asking for moneyI’ve had the app 5 min and I’m already getting bombarded with upgrade offers !!!!.Version: 7.15.0
✓ Annoying notificationsNo matter the settings, the app keep spamming me notifications. So basically weather notifications become useless because I have to disable them to stop interrupting and bothering me during the day. Lousy programming..Version: 6.12.0
✓ Good app too many ads...I get it, it’s free so there’s ad’s.....but there’s so many that it’s annoying to use...too many, and I’m even getting ones that say my phone has a virus (which is untrue) I have an iPhone and have never had a virus...so that right there is annoying and it ONLY claims that my phone has a virus when I use THIS app! Anyway I’m most likely going to delete, bc it’s annoying..The Weather Channel is good FREE app and it’s pretty accurate on everything, with out trillions of adds...I’ve had it for had it for a couple years....this app looks prettier and does the job but there’s other ones that do the same with out the hassle...bottom line unless ur willing to pay u get a crap load of annoying and unnecessary adds!.Version: 5.6
✓ Adverts, Adverts & More ADVERTSBeen using this, or should I say persevering, with this app for a month now and deleting it after this review due to incessant adds. Many of the reviews I read mentioned the add frequency but also said they get less as you use it. Not in my experience. A month of regularly using it throughout the day and still FULL SCREEN takeover adds popping up a second after opening then again and during use. It does look great but I’m guessing very few of us are going to pay for the add free version. Just annoying me now so going back to my old app..Version: 5.8
✓ Best weather app among a crowd of awful onesSo, I want to give you more stars, but despite being the BEST single app out of a horde of terrible ones, you guys need to improve, please. What’s missing to make it to 4 stars: * Please stop making “rain map” a default, or let us change that in the settings. It’s nonsense. Radar should be the default, since it’s far more accurate and informative. * Make the animated radar loop an OPTION, not the default. I don’t care what the radar looked like several hours ago, when I’m just checking current conditions. Also, in areas where signal is bad, that loop takes fooorrrrrevvvvvverrrrr, or won’t load at all. Let your users choose the data sucking option only if we really want it. If you want to bump that to 5 stars: * Expand layers to have storm track cones and fronts - you know, like the old Storm app did so well before it went straight to hell by becoming the pathetic Storm Radar. I usually hate apps that are full of ads unless you pay to remove them. But in your case, because you really do have the one decent app in the bunch, it’s forgiveable, and I paid it. I’d just be happier paying for a version with the fixes I described..Version: 5.12
✓ Good, but there’s adsThis app helps in a lot of ways like figuring out on if you should wear pants or shorts that day or if you need an umbrella. But there are so many ads in the app and the only way to get rid of them is to pay money. I go into the app then click on the map, I’m looking around on it and there’s an ad that pops up and blocks the screen, it’s an ad to get premium. That’s okay, I wait about 5 seconds until the x comes up in the corner, I click it and keep looking around on the map. 5 seconds later the same thing happens and it keeps doing that. Also, there’s always a little advertisement on the bottom to get something it’s kind of hard to explain but it’s so annoying. After the premium ad kept popping up, I decided to write this review and delete the app. I’m sure if you’re willing to pay it’d be much better..Version: 7.2.5
✓ GarbageAnything you select come with ads. So annoying.Version: 7.8.1
✓ ReviewHello, just wanted to say since re- downloading the app, much more annoying with frequent questions about upgrading to pro version. This didn’t happen with the previous edition.Version: 7.2.0
✓ Golden Hour gone!!Edit - the developer contacted me, and I checked what they said would fix the issue with the photography golden and blue hours. Everything was already selected. However, it still is gone. You have to pay for it. This used to be included in the free version. The subscription fee is crazy! It is $2.99 a week or $20 a year! FAR too high for this type of app. I am very sad to see that the latest update took away my favorite feature, the photography golden hour times. This was the only app that I have seen this on. Now, to get this information, you have to pay a subscription fee. The fee is way too high for the information that you get. I don’t think I will be using this as my primary weather app anymore, due to the photography info needing a subscription..Version: 6.18.0
✓ ReviewWould be better if I could see the forecast for the week and the following week.Version: 6.14.0
✓ Trashy app full of ads - don’t waste your time.Decided to try this app for its air quality reports, it’s the only feature that’s locked behind a pay wall. Gives an option to “unlock for free” but just brings you to the monthly/annually subscription choice. Every time you open the app you get an ad or their subscription plan and sometimes the cross to exit out of all of that never pops up so I can’t even get into the app..Version: 7.2.8
✓ Major failI’m testing 4 weather apps right now including this one to see which is best and so far this one has a MAJOR FLAW!!! The 3 others are reporting a humidex of almost 10 degrees more for the last 4 days and this app is reporting that there is none. This is NOT ACCEPTABLE!!!.Version: 7.2.8
✓ Way offWe had a thunderstorm last night. The app showed sunny skies and zero rain. This morning it is overcast. The app still shows sunny skies. If it cannot get this part right what are the chances of other data being accurate? Canada..Version: 5.4
✓ It's GoodI bought the Premium version and it's nice. I'm still acclimatising to the amount of data on display. My only disappointment is that, thus far anyway, the images on display are not as "dramatic" as those displayed on the ad for the app. No waves lapping against a seashore yet! I contacted support and was told I would get images which corresponded to my location at that time....but I downloaded the app when on holiday on the Cypriot coast and still got no waves! Nice app though and I certainly don't regret buying it..Version: 5.4
✓ ShaeSnowing heavily and the forecast just overcast. Lately really getting it wrong more than right..Version: 7.16.0
✓ Not accurateDeleted as never accurate. Sit here in the sun while you state its raining? If your a weather app how do you get that wrong? Cool graphics but Im really here for the weather..Version: 7.17.2
✓ FrustratedI love the way the app looks. It also looks nice on the Apple Watch. However,I am really frustrated. I am switching weather apps from dark sky since it will not be supported next year. I purchased the premium weather live since it look like the most promising app compared to dark sky. We had severe weather last night and weather live did not notify me as it was supposed to. I double checked all of my settings and then tons of research to see if I had made a mistake but everything seems to be set up correctly. The wife runs dark sky on her phone still and we were getting constant weather updates from dark sky. The basic stuff on the weather live app he’s really nice and I like it more than dark sky. However, whether live app does not doesn’t even compare to the notifications that dark sky has and also the accuracy. We rely heavily on weather apps since we ride motorcycles everywhere and dark sky has been a wonderful app to let us know of upcoming weather changes. Since switching to weather live it doesn’t even compare. I hope that this will be improved since I’ve purchased the yearly plan but if it continues not giving correct updated weather I’m going to have to move on to something different..Version: 7.2.6
✓ Useless if you don’t subscribeThis is just a good looking app, but that’s all about it if you don’t pay subscription. ‘Hourly forecast’ is every 3 hours forecast only, it’s not hourly! No radar! No precipitation forecast! No satellite, no map! No daily and hourly temperature graph! Pretty much nothing, except current conditions and a forecast of every 3 hours conditions over a few days! Oh, but it has photography and sea temperatures and tides, which I don’t care about because I don’t leave on the coast; Oh, and it also has nagging subscribe full screen windows every time you press the screen, all for free you guys, if you’re interested!! I still have their many years old app (from 2015), which isn’t that “pretty”, but it has almost everything mentioned above, plus a 70 hour precipitation forecast map, all for free! Disappointing! I’d definitely not pay them for these services, since there are quite a lot of very popular apps out there offering accurate and much more detail for free - AccuWeather, The Weather Channel, Weather Mate, My Radar, to name a few of my favorites. Even Apple Weather app has all you need..Version: 7.20.2
✓ Can’t unsubscribe from trial subscriptionI received an email notifying me that I have accepted (?) A 3-days trial subscription to this app but I simply app do not want it. How can I unsubscribe before the 3 days expire to avoid being automatically charged with a 1-week subscription?.Version: 7.2.8
✓ Virus on iPhone ?I really like the weather app. Looks nice. BUT.... today your app took me to a page where it told me my iPhone had a virus. You can't get a virus on apple devices unless you break them and install software from other source than apple. So this page is wrong and misleading. I feel you are reasonable for these adverts. I feel it's totally unacceptable for you app to display this advert and try's and con people into buying and possible installing unnecessary software I now have no choice but to uninstall your app. I don't trust the information you are displaying. Poor..Version: 5.4
✓ It’s okay but needs work...The most frustrating thing is that it shows I have 28 outstanding notifications and I can’t clear these for some reason. But I’ve also realised how much I rely on coloured icons to display the weather - the simple white outlines showing the upcoming forecast require more concentration and I’m not a fan..Version: 5.8
✓ UpgradeBeim I fon 7 habe ich eine 1 mal Zahlung getan wird dieses auch auf I fon 11 Uebertragen ich hoffe es , Vielen Dank..Version: 7.14.0
✓ TerribleI paid for the full version and it hasn’t shown the correct weather once. Shows full sunshine when it’s actually overcast and foggy. Tried changing preferences and still doesn’t show correct weather..Version: 7.2.7
✓ Warning: this is a paid app!!This is not a free app. You have to agree to a subscription to use it..Version: 7.16.3
✓ Previous paid version disabledLike many other users, I paid for the app a few years ago and now we are all being forced to choose either the free app with ads or a new, subscription-based paid service. I understand that the developers wish to profit from their hard work, but simply disregarding current customers by disabling a previously paid-for version without any notice or warning not acceptable. Most reputable software developers don’t disable paid-for previous versions of an app when a new version is introduced, they just offer a new version to those who may wish to upgrade and leave the previous version available and working for those that don’t wish to do so. I’d like the developers to respond to at least one of the previous customers who have this same complaint, since they have so far ignored all of these customers while responding to other users with different complaints..Version: 6.18.0
✓ Incessant adsIncessant ads.Version: 7.16.3
✓ It was good until the recent updateIt’s a good app until the latest update to ios 11. Ads still pop up though i have the paid version from a few years ago. Support gave me a link to download another version but ads still pop up and was told that it is not ad free. Maybe they want me to buy the ad free app again. But if it not ad free why bother?.Version: 5.6
✓ LimitedNo coverage in Canada..Version: 7.16.3
✓ What was wrong with the App how it used to beI’m not happy with the update and have deleted it as it has heaps of ads and things that used to be free you now have to subscribe to get. I paid for this app and was happy with it for a couple of years until you updated it. Don’t download it unless you are happy to subscribe, there are better free weather app’s!.Version: 6.10.0
