StationWeather - METAR and TAF for Negative User Reviews

Cool features but incredibly unfriendlyI’ve used the app for almost a year now and it’s been great, but with the latest update it’s become incredibly user-unfriendly. I can’t set the airport I want to see on the iPhone lock screen widget, the information is never up to date, constantly having to refresh… what happened??.Version: 9.2.3

Integration with Apple Watch doesn’t workDeveloper doesn’t seem to provide any assistance with troubleshooting bugs in the app. Long story short the complications on the Apple Watch do not update. Was pointless buying the app..Version: 6.2

Apple Watch still not working!The restart, or relaunch as recommended by the developer DOES NOT work…. Disappointing.Version: 7.5.5

Good app but units are flawed. Also wx out of date.It’s a great app, but why show visibility as “6e+03 m” ?, it just looks stupid. Also, watch app sometimes refuses to auto update or even force update. Weather is often more than an hour old even at larger airports. Such a shame because this is a potentially great app. But I’ll not be renewing my subscription..Version: 8.7

Nice Wx app, but slow update on weathetVery good app, I take a peak before every flight, but the biggest problem with this app is that the METAR update is very slow so that it makes me turn on a different app to check weathers.. Other apps like Aeroweather does get updated as soon as I open the app. Please do update to fix this..Version: 6.1.2

Cool but will not work on Apple Watch.I love the idea but bought it specifically for my Apple Watch and the feature does not work. Just says “check subscription”. Well I have the subscription! Hopefully it’s fixed because it would be awesome!.Version: 8.1.1

No good useSo sadly this doesn’t work very well (almost not usable) on the cellular Apple Watch without the iPhone tethered to it, if I have my iPhone on me anyways it easier to just look on foreflight, so there’s not much of a use for this app, Windh seems to do the same thing but actually works on the Apple Watch when it’s solo, as does NRST for frequencies and a heading and decent rate to the nearest field. On a good note, the GUI is kinda slick.Version: 9.1.6

Need update improvementI love that it integrates with the watch, and that’s primarily why I purchased it. The layout and overall features are decent. My complaint is that it doesn’t update often enough on the phone and hardly ever on the watch. I’ve had outdated METARs of over an hour during Wx changes and a METAR of over a day on the watch. Frustrating..Version: 5.2

RtFails to update so useless..Version: 8.8

Watch complications are buggySpecifically with the info graph watch face, I like to have the local winds show on the sun dial top position and it’s now allowing me to click my sundial right app (which is my stop watch for procedure turns) I’d like this to be evaluated please. Also, I get weather reports of zero wind a lot. I work at my home airport, and have access to the AWOS. I know the winds aren’t zero. Please look into this..Version: 9.2.7

Runway numbers...As runway numbers changed about two years ago, no update has been done. F45 changed from 8/26 to 9/27 and 31/13 changed to 32/14. KPBI the same so did every airport.......update needed..Version: 7.2.1

Why did you change it?The old layout was so much easier to see the weather at a glance. This change is terrible and makes it harder to read quickly Not a fan of this layout. You’ve stripped it down and made it way more difficult to read. Will probably stop using the app.Version: 9.0

Maybe good on the iPhone, not the Apple Watch.I wanted to try this app to have a widget with the METAR of the nearest station. It looks great, but after 3 hours it stops updating and the widget keep showing the same METAR......Version: 7.4.3

Good but CrashesBasically, Its a wonderful aid to quickly look at multiple areas at a glance. I fly with a company whose weather minimums are more strict than legal definitions. So having the availability in this app to change how VFR, MVFR, IFR, LIFR are all categorized is AMAZING. Because I then set anything less than company minimums to IFR so I can quickly see what works and what doesnt along my route. The Bad: It crashes when you create different binders (clips). It crashes and need an entire reinstall for it to work again. So as long as I never make or attempt to make another binder, Im good..Version: 6.2

Good app with a greedy subscription policyFree version is ok, but the app is just greedy. I understand that the developer wants recurring revenue, but you can't just ask for a "subscription" for a normal app, which is not even a service. I'm all for paying for good software, but that's just classic "ahh, they have money for the plane, they won't mind another yearly payment". Nope. Pass..Version: 8.1

Apple Complications InopApp itself if fine but the reason I got the app was for the Apple Watch complications. The app just shows “checking your subscription status...” without ever updating. I have the one week trial as well as was the to the 2 month reoccurring after the trial ended..Version: 7.2.1

Still It crashes after latest updateCrashes after opening the app.Version: 8.2.4

Watch app totally nonfunctionalThe Apple Watch app just hangs on a “Checking your subscription...” message and will go no farther. (My subscription is active). I’ve tried deleting and reloading to the watch and get same result. Developer responded saying restart the app. Yeah, I’ve tried that a half-dozen times both before and after restarting the app. Same result..Version: 7.5.1

Good app, very handyLike the large text. Makes it easy to read on the go. European IATA codes aren't appearing if you could fix please. Would be nice if you could swipe from station view to see next station view on the list..Version: 1.3

Too many features require paymentGood things: there are no ads, and the user interface is aesthetically pleasing, more so than the competitor app AeroWeather Pro. Unfortunately, I feel this app tries way too hard to nudge me into subscribing. The very first time I downloaded the app I was immediately shoved a modal dialog to accept a free trial, and when I dismissed this dialog, a different subscription with a free trial was offered. Then all throughout the user interface there are places where you can be swept into the subscription signup flow. Below your list of airports, in the settings, when you tap on certain icons on a map. At least let me look thru the app in peace the first time I open it, and maybe down the road I’d be glad to check out the pro features. And of course they make you pay to use ANY widget functionality at all. I would consider paying for this app but I’d like to just buy it and not have to keep opening my wallet up every so often. Guess you can’t do that! What’s to prevent the price from sneakily being raised before my next renewal date, like the scams run by so many newspapers these days?.Version: 9.2.8

No good on Apple WatchGood on the phone but not on apple watch It never shows updated info on the screen of the watch.Version: 5.2

Missing maps with frontal positionsTetrahedral on display is backwards. The point of the tetrahedral is pointed into the wind. What is displayed is how a wind sock behaves. Think of the point of the tetrahedral as the nose of the airplane. That helps the pilot to visually see from the air which runway to select..Version: 9.1.5

Pluses and minusesI like the visualization of the ceiling and the color coding App updates inconsistently and also some of the graphics need a good legend in order to understand..Version: 5.1

OkHas problem of not opening. Must close and re open several times to get TAF..Version: 7.4.3

No weather reports?Why does it say no weather reports at every single airport I choose? Literally every Airport isn’t working..Version: 8.1.9

Apple Watch issuesGreat App, but recently I got a problem that I cannot fix: The Apple Watch complication does not show the airport as selected on the Flight Clip on the phone. It shows only SFO and LHR, the default ones for the app. Looks like it doesn’t update from the phone. iOS 14, WatchOS 7, tried everything, from reinstall eto reset 🙁 Update: Just got message from developer, he is trying to fix it. That is great news, would make the App perfect👍 The suggested procedure to restart the App did not work either🙁 That’s what I call great support !! Developer just updated App to fix issue mentioned above!! Working flawlessly now 👍.Version: 7.2.1

OK App, Garbage BusinessI got less than 6 months of use out of this app before the developed decided to break the pro version and demand subscription fees to make it work again. Bye Felicia..Version: 7.5.1

Buggy - CrashesCrashes on viewing certain synoptic charts..Version: 3.0.2

This app is awesomeHope the developers get this message as I cannot contact you any other way. I have a subscription but since the last update the app crashes as soon as it is opened. Please help. I have an I phone 12 with latest software..Version: 8.2.3

Has potential ..butThis aviation weather app has potential. They use an interesting visual approach to conveying weather information but a lot of the interface feels clunky and not intuitive. And sometimes it is buggy when launching. Today, it presented a OSH discount promotion to sign on for the premium subscription but the Dismiss button does not work. They don’t appear to be properly testing changes before releasing a new version..Version: 9.2.6

Clips frequently appear outdatedThis app is great overall except for fact that the flight clips don’t always update properly. I’ve had some get 60+ hours old with the update interval set to 1 minute. I know the information is being updated by the airport because I can check the raw feed on the internet, so the problem must be with the app..Version: 8.6.1

UnstableLatest update as of March 28, 2022 is unstable. Won’t stay open..Version: 8.2.4

Good app, didn’t want to be forced to review it.After being promoted 6 times in a row between switching stations, I gave in and rated it. 4*s for the app, 0 *s for the annoyance..Version: 6.1.2

Doesn’t refreshYou mean to tell me there’s just no METAR available for DFW, a crazy busy hub? Or any of the 15 airports around it? Even though the AWC has it? Uh huh, okay. Piece of junk..Version: 7.4.3

Won’t updateSince yesterday morning no weather will update..Version: 9.3.1

Great app, butGreat weather app for 7$/year but if you are using ForeFlight, there is nothing more than what you're already have..Version: 9.1.4

Promisingly app, But...If you disable location services for this app, anything you do after results in a pop up asking you to enable location. I like the layout of this app, but don’t appreciate a pop up, every time I try to access data, reminding me to enable location for this app. You guys have a great app here. It will be greater when you remove that nagging pop up..Version: 7.5.2

Great app - butWorks flawlessly on iPhone. But crashes and won't work at all on watch with cellular..Version: 6.0.1

Doesn’t load info when not on WiFiGreat when your on WiFi... however if you try to update when on data it keeps saying it is unable to load anything..Version: 5.2

Great app but it glitches!I want to give this app 5 stars but it glitches all the time and closes automatically after 2 seconds. Please fix it.Version: 8.2.4

Where the 2 stars?Where are the 2 stars that darkens? First,the star darkens because this app seems like to crash when I click add station secondly,I believe the star will come back if everythings is fix..Version: 4.0

Nice app but slow weather updatesNoticed that there are inconsistent and sometimes slow updates or metars. AeroWeather is almost always updated within 5 minutes of a metar being published. I have experienced delays of 10 to 20 minutes at times with station weather pro. Improve reliability and speed of updates and I would rank it 4 stars..Version: 6.1.2

GlitchGlitch! Keeps shutting down. Developer in process of working it out. Otherwise, amazing weather app..Version: 8.2.4

Airport Chart UpdatesI’m a Corporate Jet Pilot based in Canada that would use this app on a regular basis if it could be trusted. The StationWeather Pro App doesn’t appear to update its charts. For example, Charlottetown Airport (CYYG) located in Prince Edward Island, Canada lengthen Runway 10/28 from 5000’ to 7000’ over a year ago. The chart for the Airport layout, however, shows it’s still 5000 feet in length. I did go into the settings and updated the Charts Database. After I did that, a little window opened showing, “Charts database updated”. I then went back into the app to check the information for runway 10/28 and saw it hadn’t updated. The airport diagram layout still showed that runway 5000’ in length not 7000’ as it should be. It leaves me to wonder how many other Airports in the StationWeather Pro App That may be in accurate and therefore unreliable. For that reason, I cannot use the App for Flight Planning purposes until the update charts feature is fixed..Version: 6.2
