Customisable
Great but needs to avoid getting too complicated. Also watch app notifications incorrectly label temp as Centigrade when show Fahrenheit levels

Good
One issue: can’t customise the expanded widget any more! Selections not working, iPhone X iOS 12
2018-07-07
Slick weather app with lots of customisation.
Probably my favourite weather app to date. Well worth the value of the yearly subscription price.
I don’t have an Apple Watch, so I can’t comment on any of those features, but everything that’s supposed to work in the core app, works very well.
A couple of things though:
1. It has, on very rare occasions, locked up on opening when trying to find my location. It stays like this, even after closing and reopening the app, until I restart my phone. It’s happened twice so far. When it happens, the widget locks up too and can’t find my location till the phone restarts. It’s very rare though.
2. Please give us a few extra commas, 3 would be perfect for me, for customising the widget summary. I have 6 data points I want to include in it, and I can only put separators in for 3 of them. Without them, it just looks too bunched up and confusing. A couple of extra new line breaks would be good too.
3. A better built in option for radar in the UK. I know you can add a custom webpage to link to instead, but a dedicated and built in option would be nice. The custom webpage option you’ve given us is way better than nothing though.
4. I like the inclusion of the background and icon customisation options, but I would really like to see a background image option that changes depending on the weather. If it’s sunny it’s yellow, if it’s light rain it’s blue, heavy rain it’s dark blue, cloudy it’s grey, night time it’s black etc. That would be sweet.
Despite these minor problems and feature requests, I still totally recommend it. It took me only a day of using it before I jumped into the yearly subscription, it’s that good.

Excellent Weather App
I use a number of Dark Sky weather apps and I believe this is the best of them all.

I have found this app to be accurate in its 24hr forecasts, it's graphics are nice and clear, it's a good one to have.

Subscription based
The 'included' or 'not included' settings appeared to have no effect, and I noticed that I had been automatically subscribed for a trial period, which was not made clear on the App Store page. I'd rather own my apps outright, so I deleted this within minutes and bought Dark Skies.

It's not free
Why can't they say it a trial instead of free app. I don't mind the price but they have to be honest about it.
2016-10-16
This is only free for one month...
It's only free for the first month then you need a subscription.
App itself was fine but would like to have known before the "trial" was up.

Best weather app in store
In my opinion this is the best weather app in the store.
It has excellent app control in the settings menu on the phone and the watch widget interface is the best available.
Customer support is amazing.
U.K. Customers have reduced functionality.

Excellent

This has now become my default weather app
This is a very good app, it is very handy in that it can tell you when the rain is going to stop or start locally. This allows you to decide whether to make that little trip out. I do lots of walking locally and so it is very handy to know when to keep that trip short. Still not sure if the in app purchases are worth it but for my needs right now probably not.

Simply The Best
Terrific weather App. I have tried a lot of similar apps, but this is the one that is still on my Home Screen.
I fly FPV Racing Drones and this app is invaluable when I want to check out if the conditions are going to be OK for flying.
Simply The Best, I love it 👍

Another great weather app to my collection
Not sure what it is about weather apps, I now have 14!!
I was gifted an iTunes voucher, so thought I'd check it out. Really glad that I did, it uses Forecast.io which is used by all the best weather apps on iOS. Looks great too, very clean, no mess or annoying charts/graphs or features, it's just missing that Apple Watch complication, but hopefully that will come soon.
