  • Most accurate weather app I’ve found

    I live in a rural area, and the major weather apps report the weather from the closest city, which isn’t very close. Snowflake is more hyper-local, I assume because it is based on DarkSky weather. Works well with Apple Watch as a complication, though it helps to have a more modern iPhone than my previous XR.
  • crashes on startup maybe every 5th time

    mostly fine, works well, seems to have a different source for weather data than Apple’s weather app. accurate enough for my needs. my problem is that about every fourth or fifth launch/relaunch, the app will lock up for ~45 seconds or so and then drop me back at the springboard like nothing happened. if i launch it again, it opens quickly and correctly. been like this for a LONG time.
  • No Updates for Over a Year!

    I’m a subscriber and have used this app since it’s initial release. The weather app market is very saturated. I used this weather app because I liked the simplicity of it, how I could keep my locations, etc. Anyway, this app is falling behind with no widgets, no updates, etc. I cannot recommend it anymore because it appears that the developer has stopped supporting it. MANY other options out there that are IOS 16 friendly and allow for widgets, etc. Come on man! Update the darn app.

    3/4/23 For me this remains a niche app because there is no key to the display. What do lines and color represent. Nothing in help files to clarify main display. Each time I open app hoping to find ‘incredible detail’ I leave disappointed because now way to drill down to what is being displayed. Of course picking location is important but help me get a handle on it - provide axis labels, a key or help file. Perhaps show label with long press. Don’t leave me to guess and close the app again disappointed. 5/16/20 I am at a loss interpreting many of the pages. They have unlabled lines running up and down and colored fields with neither label or value scale. Clearly there is a lot of data here, but I had hope by now they would clarify what the various lines and colored fields on the pages stand for. Humitity, rain probability, A lot of data appears to be her, but without labels and scales how is the user supposed to know what it represents? The only way I could find out how to search for weather in a remote location was to browse the reviews and find the developers response to a complaint by another reviewer. Settings/location is where the search field is located. For me that wasn’t intuitively obvious. I read all the online help and how to search for a remote location wasn’t discussed. I’m OK with the app cost so far. I did buy a one year pro subscription. As a long time user of iSTat I’m confident it will may become my go to weather app. Time spent with documentation is time away from development, but user support before people complain is probably more efficient than the time it takes to respond to individual queries.
  • Widgets broken iOS 16

    I’ve been running the beta all summer and widgets are broken. However, I waited until the iOS 16 release to give this a poor rating. The fact that it’s been broken since the beta dropped in June and there is no day one patch in September to fix it is ridiculous. Is this developer still alive? 9 months between updates doesn’t cut it in 2022.
  • Lots of data, but no snowfall amounts?

    By bradleythegeek
    I realize this isn’t a big deal everywhere, but it really is here in the northeast. As far as I can see, there is no indication anywhere of expected snowfall amounts. There also doesn’t appear to be integration with National Weather Service alerts. In 2 days we’re expecting 8 inches of snow. Nothing in Snowflake warns me about that incoming storm. “Rain mixed with snow” is it’s report for that day. I found out about the storm from AccuWeather, which shows snowfall probabilities across the range of likely amounts and provides the NWS alerts. In places where “a dusting to an inch” can become 12”-16” of snow because of a last minute change of storm track 24 hours out, this is really important data. I might use this app a lot in the summer, but not at all in the winter.
  • Glad to see this app get an update

    I really like this app. It’s hard to find a privacy focused weather app, and when I do they usually charge way too much for features I don’t care about. Glad this app sticks to the basics.
  • No Weather Map Included

    Well this app has very detailed information about the current weather, and does allow you to change the location, it does not include a display of radar. In order to see that you must pay an extra fee. Many other weather apps include radar at no cost, including those apps like weather underground that are a free download.
