Netatmo Weather 4+

Love netatmo

We have had our Netatmo for several years and I love it. We live in the Denver metro area where temperatures and weather conditions can vary greatly across the area. I can check the temperature outside my house and then look at the temps across the area. I can see how much colder it is in the mountains than on the plains or between where I live and Boulder (this is in the map portion of the app). If you swipe left in the app, you can see pollution levels (helpful if you like to exercise outdoors). I love how the device warns you when the CO2 level is too high in your house. I also like that I can see noise levels. The app will alert you to any hazardous weather conditions in your area if you turn on the alerts. We recently purchased and installed the wind and rain gauge. Hopefully, we will love them as well. I find Netatmo an extremely useful device.

Notifications still not 100%

Notifications appear again, for the most part. The alert badge on the app icon does not yet work. (Yes, I have notifications set to add the badge and have toggled it off and on and still nothing).

Old review, but still true...
The temperatures are highly inaccurate. It was in the low 80's yet they listed the "Feels Like" temperature at 117. The temperatures on all units are off by about 2-2.7 degrees. Still no way to initiate an immediate reading from the app. You must rely on old data or physically access the base station to request a reading. The additional units lack in functionality. I thought they included decibel meters but they are only inaccurate thermometers and supposedly measure CO2 levels. Those are also insanely inaccurate. Their support department takes about a week to respond and doesn't actually help you with the issue. I'd avoid the app unless you are only wanting inaccurate temperature readings. The other information is ridiculously inaccurate or just completely fabricated. I hate my Netatmo paperweights.

Developer Response ,

Hello, thank you for your review, our teams worked hard on resolving this situation quickly and the notifications are working properly again. The accuracy of the measurements taken by the station is a priority for us, if you notice incorrect measurements, contact us at contact-weather@netatmo.com we will help you resolve this.

Great App, grossly misrepresented in '1 star' reviews

As found by the most reviewer, I've had no problems on iOS 9 and beta 9.1 and the properly uses the screen real-estate on iPhone 6, or 6+ as well as both current iPads. As to 'tips' the user just needs to disable them. Or if you find you can't reinstall the App. My install has not shown them since the original installs. I find it a great intuitive app and as a developer has a very usable well architected UI. As a former Naval Aviator and weather nut I've installed 2 systems already at home and a family vacation home. It's a must have 'gadget' and app.

Still love the system and the software has only gotten better with each release.
