The widget needs to be reset everytime. It's useless.
Mine stopped updating yesterday 11/20/2019 :(
No more updates
The update interval is set for 1 hour but the widget seems to update whenever it feels like it. Sometimes every hour but most likely every 3 hours or more. This is the only widget I have trouble with so I don't think it's something on my end.
I very much like the immediacy and accuracy this app has, but miss the visual way other apps display the data. 1Weather for instance, shows more visual information for 'at a glance'. I also am unable to figure out how to tap to refresh (no indication it refreshes and mostly launches app). It'd be great to have the ability to be more granular in choosing what data to display (don't care about sunrise / sunset for instance). An indicator of how big the widget will be when choosing data would be great too.
Content wise, this app is great. It's my go-to app for reliable weather info anywhere. The fact that it gives me weather details that are accurate to the MINUTE is amazing. But, I do place it on my last page due to design. I bought the Pro version to support continued development. I'd just like to see some improvements to the overall design. Widgets are just Ok and they don't have uniform font sizes when you add multiple content. Summaries are perfect. Widgets need some cleaner theming.
On Note 3. Unlike Note 2 widget graphics fit fine but will have to choose another weather app until this is fixed.
I was buying pro version for customized refresh intervals. Still has inconsistent interval as free version; Set notification priority to low, didn't show icon on status bar. Nexus 5 4.4.4.
I use this app constantly since I recently moved to New England and the weather is - umm - highly changeable. I had one problem (due to my own error) and the developer responded quickly with a fix. Five stars.
The widget was hard to find on my S4 for some reason, but I found it. I do like this app. I will be traveling soon and I'll put it through it's paces and give a full review soon. I don't want to review it based on the initial experience at this point.
Great app, the forecast is always accurate and the information given is exactly what you would want from a weather app. The only thing I don't like about it is that the UI is pretty drab and could use some color
The ads come back, and when you email the developer about it they ignore you.
Very impressed with the free version so I want to support the work. I love the options and the notification bar icon is great.
I like this app a lot. Decided to purchase it so I could change the update frequency. My only real issue is that the widget sometimes won't open the app when tapped, other times it will. (on a Note 2)
I've downloaded this but I can't find the widget on my Samsung s4. Can you please help. I will review when I have the app up and running.
I took off one Star because it crashes often. There's a problem when using widget, the app crashes. All else is perfect!
Wish they would have fahrenheit in celsius displayed together side be side not have to keep changing in settings all other is good.
This is a great app! Buy it! Widgets that let you know exactly when its going to start raining on your home screen
I would like to suggest more color options for the application and widget. The widget especially could use this and perhaps a way to make the text and icons bold.
Widget is not getting updated every 30 min - I bought Pro version - please fix this ASAP - Thanks
I love this app. If I were being cheeky, I'd love an option for a rain radar map in the pro version. Still, this is great!
I love how this app functions with the notifications however if there was a radar that would be so much better. If there is one and I don't know about it please tell me!!
While the added features are enough to reason to purchase the pro key, supporting a hard-working developer who cares about what they put together is that much more reason. Live the app, love the pro features, and I'm sure you will too!
Liked the app so much I got the pro version. Strange that when adding the widget it says "Last update time - will disable touch to refresh for pro users," but you actually need to check that box to ENABLE refreshing via widget.
I love this app. I'm so glad that it exists. For me, the only thing that it is missing is Pebble specific notifications. I'd love to get an alert on my watch when it's about to rain.
App no longer supported, apparently. Radar maps stopped displaying 6-8 weeks ago, and developer does not respond to emails. Sad, because this used to be an excellent weather app. Don't pay for upgrade expecting all features to work/be reliable.
