Ratings and Reviews
Love this app!!
I’ve really enjoyed this app for early season winter, both for city and mountain weather conditions. Two comments:
1) I would love to see snowtel data incorporated into the app somehow so that you can also see snow depth for a given area.
2) the hourly forecast feature has lots of great data points, but when scrolling into the future it’s easy to forget what each of those variables actually correspond to. It would be great to see the leftmost column that specifies these values become a “floater” so that you can always see the title of the value on the left hand side. Please reach out if you have any questions!!
Developer Response ,
Thank you for the review! I’ll take your suggestions into consideration for the next app update. Please email me at mwnbdc@gmail.com, as I’d like to get some additional information about the specifics. Thanks again.
Lots of limitation notices
I like the long explanation messages about NOAA updates because they let me know when there will be an update and the limitations of the data (staleness, accuracy, originating weather station.) It appears that the developer is willing to listen to customer feedback. The price of the app is for convenience of viewing the free data in a mobile format, and I am fine with paying a small upfront price for convenience and no ads. The data could be displayed a little more concisely in a bar graph (like an old 32-bit iOS snow app), but overall this gets the job done.
My go to weather app
This app consistently provides the most accurate weather info in my area (North Idaho) of any app I have found and I have tried several. The fact I can pinpoint local areas as opposed to only more regional forecasts is really helpful, and yes the reports are nuanced in these areas, not just regional repeats. Highly recommend this app if increased accuracy and better report detail is important to you.
