Dont waste your money

kneecole4200 · 9 years ago · v1.2.1

Its absolutely torrential down pouring and the app says 7%. Its never actually gone over 20% even when its POURING. Waste of money.

Battery killer

chris@bloxers · 11 years ago

Uses full location services even when app is closed. Not worth it.

Wonderful

carbunkulous · 11 years ago

This app is simplistic and beautiful. Edit: 100% shows up as blank! :/

Great, but

Jasmith8 · 11 years ago

LOVE the angle here. Rain is a regular worry where I live, so I am always monitoring the chance of rain. This is the only app that leads with that data point. BUT, I also really want to know the current temperature. And this totally ignores that. Which is weird. Those two data points seem far more telling combined than each is individually. Please add the temp and youve given me everything I need in a weather app all wrapped in a really great minimal design.

Nice

D4rks1d3 · 11 years ago

This is a nice app that works great. What I want to know most often, the quickest is; is it going to rain? It would be nice if they add a little graphic for temperate too.

Almost Perfect

KASP3R 0426 · 11 years ago

Very beautiful design & love the Notification Center widget. Ive just noticed that the chance of rain updates very slowly or hardly at all. Please fix this to where it will update more frequently.

No updates unless app is open

DesertDog2k · 11 years ago

The app badge and the widget do not update unless the app is running in the background. What a hassle. Take a queue from the Fahrenheit app and do it right.
