1. ★★★★★privacy and excessive permissions

   Privacy issues. Please don’t use an app that tracks you even when not using the app. Egregious behavior should not be rewarded. Why ddi you need to surrender your privacy to see if it will rain?

2. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Why?. You see this app will not let me go on it and when no, it won’t it won’t let me see the weather. I have to sign up for pro and it cost money but guess what I don’t have any money. I’m just a 10-year-old kid how am I supposed to have money on an iPad, my mom is always watching.

3. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

   I don’t think it works says -cannot connect to server!. I loaded the app I checked location my Internet service is full bars full connection. I have Wi-Fi at home so I could use that. I don’t think it’s using either and saying the -not connect to server, just seems like it’s not working on their end?? I just want to know what time it’s gonna rain!!

   Only one. الاشتراك مبالغ بسعره جداً. التطبيق يعطيك تقرير لمدة ساعتين قادمة فقط مع الاشتراك وبعض التطبيقات تعطيك اكثر من ذلك مجاني. مافيه أي ميزة تشجعك على الإشتراك. غلطه لن تتكرر. لا يوجد أقل من نجمة للأسف.

   No Live Radar on Apple Watch, many problems. 1. Does not show active current screenshot of radar on iPhone widget. Have to tap to open and still no active live current radar screen until you hit the play button. This is very poor. 2. Cannot choose “current location” have to choose specific location. Very poor. 3. Apple Watch complication with radar does not show radar until you tap the watch, then tap radar. Very poor. RadarScope shows you live active screenshot of radar on Apple Watch without tapping anything. Look at Watch. It’s there. Your app is not competitive.

   Waste of space on phone. Worthless garbage only notifies me when rain stops, it never tells me when it’s going to rain

7. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   This is barely Accurate. So I just downloaded this app I live in the uae and all the apps were only for America and tonight at 4 am there’s heavy rain so I downloaded this app and then I went to the weather check and it says there is nothing no rain at all so i went to the Weather App and it does say that there is heavy so I think ppl living in the uae should stick to the Weather App

   Doesn’t work. This app just straight up doesn’t work. Shows rain when it’s not, shows clear when it’s raining. Can only see ahead on the radar like 1 hour and it hasn’t been accurate the last 15 days I’ve checked it daily a single time. Pretty awful

9. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

   Crippled by Ads. Great app concept - but the entire product is crippled by forcing users to pay premium for basic features that are widely available elsewhere, and polluting a weather app with ads. I would happily pay a one time fee, but a subscription for a rain app isn’t worthwhile in California, and limiting to a 1 hour future radar makes this logically usable.

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    تطبيق مُخادع للأسف !. بعد أن اشتركت معهم لمدة عام، ودفعت مقابلها، قاموا بإلغاء ميزة الرادار برو !! وعي أهم ميزة في التطبيق ! وهذا غش وخداع 👎🏼👎🏼 لا أنصح بالاشتراك معهم إحذروا ‼️‼️

11. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Ads galore. This ain’t a weather app, it’s an Ad app. Seriously, every 10 seconds the same add pops up for 6 seconds. Good thing it can be REMOVED.

12. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Spam attached. Update: Developers reached out to me. No longer see the fake note about Apple Pay. App rocks! Just downloaded. Program has a scam attached alerting to an Apple Pay charge, with bogus number to call. I doubt developers are aware?

13. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Free version is spam. Tried to use free version with intention to purchase app. But, ads are so intrusive, I cannot evaluate adequately. Importantly, the frequency of the “ this iPhone is at risk….update now” scare spam has accelerated. Just make full version free for a week. Everyone should and likely will delete a free version with malware, like this.

14. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Ready to delete!. As a pilot, I need useful WX. This is too cumbersome to use effectively.

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Crashes. I really want to like this app. It appears to have great features. After 3 tries, however, all I get are crashes when I launch the app. Too bad.

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    تطبيق فاشل. التوقعات غير صحيحة

17. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Nope. This is a whole bunch of fill screen ads with a little weather occasionally thrown in. Like most weather apps, it's not worth more than a one-time purchase of $1.99. A subscription is laughably ludicrous. 'Developers' who obtain weather data for free, act like they're coding Red Dead Redemption II and you should pay them every month.

18. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Premium no longer recognized. I am having to restore my purchase every time that I open the app.

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    أستغلال للأسف. لا أنصحك بشراء التطبيق لانهم كل فترة يغيير الشروط ويشيلون مميزات ويحطون اخرى ويقول ادفع لتحصل عليها ، كما وأن التوقعات صارت ضعيفة وغير صحيحة كم مره يكون عندنا مطر والتطبيق يقول الجو مشمس ، تطبيق طقس الايفون افضل منه و موجود به جميع الميزات ومجانا.

20. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Doesn’t work. App crashes every time I open it. I have deleted and installed it again multiple times with no luck. Used to be my go to app - won’t be anymore. Stay away.

25. ★★★★★subscription and paid restrictions

    Constantly crashing.. Have a iPhone 15 Pro. This is a nice app, but I can’t take the constant crashing, and having to always restore purchase! I shouldn’t have bought the year subscription.

    Jeddah. بطيئ جدا ومعلومات غير دقيقه وتنبوائته اغلبها خطأ

    constantly wrong. This app is constantly wrong. It will literally be raining and the app says that it’s not. And it will literally not be raining in the app says it is raining.

29. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Needs work. Consistently lower temperatures compared to other apps (5-10)degrees.. Needs work. Consistently lower temperatures. Not happy about this app.
