A beautiful and very accurate weather app. I love the tiny details on the locations and that the app updates your wallpaper with the weather. The information is presented very clearly. The app stills plays sounds when I have my phone silenced so I can't use the sounds. The app does not include weather alerts. I wish it showed daily low forecast temperatures. Still, this is my favorite weather app. It is near perfect.

Just downloaded today and so far I love it. I have been looking for an app like this for years! Is there a plan to add a fog effect? Maybe below the horizon line? I see there is everything else (rain, snow, clouds, lightning) The location is being broad. I am located on long island and shows my location as long island. I would like for it to show the city so I can have different landscapes for different places, all on long Island.

This used to be a great weather app for it allowed me to chose from a list of private reliable weather stations close to me which gave results that were far more relevant than some reporting station 20 miles away. No more. The developer lost access to the detailed local stations so now the app will default to the closest generic weather station which is d far away from wherever I'm located. I really enjoyed using the app for years but now it has been neutered and rendered useless.

Coolest weather app I've ever used! I love the animations in the landscapes, especially in the town ones where the people use umbrellas if it's raining and wear coats in the winter. My favorite landscape is the Americana one. I do notice though that the flag sometimes disappears when using it as a live wallpaper. Other than that, this is a wonderful, entertaining app. Great job!

Really creative app. I appreciate the effort that has gone into this thing. I like the ability to choose the weather provider... Always a welcome option. Radar is not working, but assume that's a temporary issue. Knocking a start because I simply can't figure out an easy way to see high and low formatted temps easily. That feels like baseline info that should be easily found in a weather app.

The temperature in the notification bar never updates on its own anymore, I have to open the app to get it to update. (Edit- the ongoing notification is already turned on) I've tried so many weather combinations and it's rarely accurate anymore. The radar is not very good. The only thing that's still nice is the live landscapes.

Love it! I had it for only a few minutes and decided to buy it. It's very accurate and allows you to see hourly weather with just the slide of a finger. Customization is very easy, and you get to choose your own animated background. Like most weather apps, you can set alarms. With this one, you get to set the sound of the background you choose. The best thing, though, is how CPU-friendly it is. This app eats surprisingly little. I've tried other weather apps, but this one is by far the best. And it's powered by Weather Underground, whom I have trusted with my weather for years. Great job, developers!

This app was everything I wanted it to be- live wallpaper, screen saver, simple weather icon on my lock screen, plus beautiful scenes and graphics. Plus, so fun to use. Great job w this app, and great attention to detail! Update: Lately the app's current temp. has been approx. 10 degrees less than the actual. Not sure what's going on, but the weather forcast isn't reliable anymore :(

This is a great app and works perfectly on a wall mounted tablet. A fun and fast way to quickly visually see the days weather. Developer obviously put some time into this one. Added things I would like to see would be ability to change temp and time display fonts (size and color) and be able to tell it which direction the photo was taken so that sun and moon would be oriented correctly -not a small endeavor I am sure, but would be super cool. :-)

I need a widget with all the information I use to prepare for my bike commute. Temperature, precipitation, humidity, and wind speed help tell me how much I'll sweat, what I should wear, and how hard it will be to breathe. Any app without these available within a widget is immediately uninstalled, and there's been exactly one so far out of at least a dozen that fits the bill: YoWindow. I do have some minor gripes with it, but it still wins every time I reevaluate weather apps about bi-yearly.

Wasn't impressed. My actual location "doesn't exist." Unlike other paid weather apps, this one doesn't allow u to easily navigate and change/swipe right or left, to add and see other locations. Maybe I should have played around with it more, but paying for something you have never used, and it's other what you want, I'm not keeping it. I suggest a free version of this for future customers

It's worth the premium version. The ability to use metric units, and so much drill down configuration is welcome. Installation is super easy, even upgrading from the free version was automatic! I haven't even tried the different backgrounds (live backgrounds are included), as the default one is actually cute. It's a great replacement for Daydream on your TV. While no app is perfect, I have yet to find anything to complain about, so I won't =D

I really love the widgets, notifications, and the daily shuffling pictures for your background. My biggest complaint is that out of all of the weather services, all of them are inaccurate to a pretty large degree so I can't actually tell what the weather is like, or get an accurate forecast. I've tried all five of the weather services and all of them are wrong.

I've used this app off and on for years. Appearance is amazing. Smooth animation and a variety of wallpapers to choose from. My biggest gripe is the app itself crashes every 45 min or so. It always starts back up just fine, and realistically wouldn't even know if my phone didn't give me a notification about it when I'm doing whatever it is I'm doing at the time but it does. Also, I know there was a pc version at one point dunno if it still exists but I couldn't find it and would love to have it

I have used this app for four years. I love the backgrounds and the weather data is plentiful and easy to read. The weather data is reasonably accurate. But I am giving up. The landscape I like is being randomly replaced by a picture of my city. The wrong background is often showing. Now with this new update, I can't turn off the extra notifications. I don't want to see an umbrella picture indicating rain. This app has lost its focus on weather and can't seem to control its extra features.

I've had this app for years and I love it! I can quickly glance at my homescreen and see an overview of five days of weather. In the app, I love that I can move the screen for many hours to see what the weather might be like at a certain hour. The "Town" landscape has evolved so much over the years! It has people walking, cars driving, a faux movie or ad banner which changes, etc. There are now a lot of landscapes to choose from. This app makes checking the weather a fun endeavor.

Worth the one time $10 (lifetime) fee to have full access to all of the interactive backgrounds and features. I love being able to tell the app what the weather in my neighborhood is actually doing because no weather forecasting service gets it right 100% of the time. I just wish I could tell the app if it's windy or there's hail. Also different degrees of rain and snow would be useful. There's a big difference between light drizzle or flurries and downpours and heavy snowfall. 😊💖☮️
