Rainbow Weather: AI Forecast 4+

Good But Needs Improvement

The app is super accurate. I use it more the the Apple weather app. The only thing I don’t like is the radar only goes 1 hour in advance. I would rather get rid of the 1 hour past for an extra future hour.

Seems to do what it says, but not enough daily value

I am on day 4 (3 day trial and I allowed 1 month subscription that I have set to expire after that). So far, the app appears to do what it says (2h rain satellite and 1h rain forecast), but 3 days trial is definitely not long enough to correlate whether it is accurate or not, hence I paid for a month. But CAD $7/mo, or even a little over $2/month if paying for a year, is way too steep for the offered functionality. Even if turns out to be 100% accurate, seeing precipitation 1h in the future is just not enough value for almost everyone. I do have an situation that I will probably use it for, however (and if accurate): boating. Knowing whether it will rain 1h ahead accurately, exactly where you are, and in real time is quite valuable to maximize time on the water without the unpleasantness of getting caught in the rain. But while this is great, it is a rare and very intermittent use case and I’ll only use it and pay for it during those specific situations. The developer needs to either drop the price drastically (like absolute max $1/mo and even that might be friction) or add enough value to be useful and sticky daily rather than just rarely and episodically. By the way, examining thedeveloper’s website, it is clear they intend to target businesses with an API integration. This makes quite a bit of sense, but considering above, it implies that they will likely let this app die once and if the business side takes off (i.e. this app is just a showcase or a sales tool for the B2B operation). Understandable but unfortunate for those that might start to rely on the app. Instead, I encourage the developer to commit to continue to advance the consumer app with actual added value rather than abandonment in liu of B2B.

(NOTE TO APPLE: allow paragraphs in reviews!!! WTH with the wall of text reformatting!)

Not the best

Just cancelled my trial subscription. I absolutely love the app, but it doesn’t give me daily forecast nor future. I have no idea what the difference between the regular and premium subscription
