Ratings and Reviews
Accurate weather info!
As a traveler I have very much appreciated having this app. When it has said rain will start at 1:00, the rain has come within 5 minutes of that. Now, that’s handy!
It’s fairly easy to use as well.
Privacy is clearly not a priority
Despite paying for the ad-free version, technical ad delivery is always on. As is something about linking devices, device identification and maybe 100+ cookies that seemed to be tracking more than strictly functional. You can “reject all,” which surprisingly seems to apply to the poorly named “legitimate interests” cookies as well, so that's actually good. Jury's still out on whether this applies to new ad providers when added, or if they default to opted-in (as they do when you manually manage cookies).
If you’re OK with the tracking bits, it’s a fine app. Locations are hard to search for and it covers fewer days than Yr (but seems less pessimistic).
This is Our Go-To Source in Our Farming Community
The farmers in this area of Co. Fermanagh go to this source for their forecasts, and this app makes it easy to get detailed weather reports with videos and graphics. Very reliable and worth a try.
