Good morning, meteorology lovers! We've been monitoring our app's performance like we monitor weather patterns, and we spotted a few issues that needed fixing. Storm = passed, app = improved! If you're enjoying accurate forecasts, we're enjoying making them possible for you. Keep checking that weather!

Recurring themes

Pricing & Paywall negative
Many users are highly critical of the app's pricing model, stating that it is too expensive, especially for weekly or yearly subscriptions. They report that many features, previously free or included, are now behind a paywall, making the free version almost useless and the paid version not worth the cost compared to alternatives. Some users noted a price increase while one mentioned a price decrease.R1R2R14R16
Accuracy mixed
There's a significant divide on accuracy. Many users praise Clime for being accurate and dependable, even more so than other popular weather apps. However, a substantial number of recent reviews report declining accuracy, with the app showing rain when it's sunny, missing storms, or providing incorrect forecasts. This contradicts the developer's notes about 'accurate forecasts'.R5R6R9R11
Radar & Features mixed
The live radar is generally appreciated for tracking weather. However, a major point of contention is the lack of future radar or extended predictions without a subscription. Other desired features like hurricane tracking, weather fronts, winds aloft, and specific map keys are either behind a paywall or missing. Some users also report issues with the lightning strike tracker not working or the time sequence slider running in reverse.R1R7R14R16
User Experience negative
Users report various UX issues, including frequent and annoying 'Rate Us' pop-ups, excessive ads in the free version, and difficulty navigating the app or finding the option to use it without subscribing. Some experience screen freezes, slow loading times, and a lack of smaller widget options. The app is also criticized for collecting information unrelated to weather.R3R21R32R57

Who it's for

This app is for users who prioritize a visually appealing weather interface and are willing to pay a premium for comprehensive, detailed weather and radar features . It could be suitable for those who need to track weather for specific activities like construction or aviation , provided they subscribe to the paid version.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew significantly negative, particularly regarding pricing and accuracy, which contrasts with the high lifetime rating. The evidence for declining accuracy and the impact of the paywall is strong and recurring across multiple reviews and regions. The developer's notes mention performance fixes but do not address the widespread complaints about accuracy or pricing changes.

  5. [R12] 5/5 · US Great weather app: User friendly updates fast
  6. [R28] 5/5 · US Clear view weather: Excellent viewing

  10. [R41] 5/5 · US Awesome weather radar: I love this app. It gives me accurate information about weather and warnings.
  11. [R45] 5/5 · US Watchtower: Perfect weather radar app!
  12. [R1] 1/5 · US Better sources than this: NOAA produces free weather sources. This app doesn’t give you any NOAA weather charts. Windy is a better app and no pay wall
  13. [R14] 1/5 · US No future radar: I don’t care what the radar said 20-40 min ago. Useless money grab.
  14. [R16] 5/5 · US Would love hurricane info, Can’t afford new prices,: I’ve been using this paid app for years, and I hate to lose it but can’t afford the new price of $60/year. It’s also kinda maddening since now all hurricane data is on the paid app.
  15. [R27] 1/5 · US Another scam: You are forced to purchase the app to use even the most basic functions
  16. [R6] 3/5 · US Accuracy?: They claim to be Noah based,but are rarely accurate. Perhaps the information they are receiving is not being interpreted correctly,I don’t know
  17. [R9] 1/5 · US Horrible: This has got to be one of the worst and I mean worst weather app I’ve ever encountered. It is horribly inaccurate like it is so off. It will show it’s supposed to storm on a sunny day will show a huge storm over my location and it won’t
  18. [R37] 2/5 · US Not remotely accurate: It’s just a bad interface. Bad app. Bad data.
  19. [R72] 3/5 · US Very needed: I travel all over. It’s good at keeping me update on the weather. I have been disappointed with the accuracy lately. Shows rain when there is no rain.
  20. [R64] 1/5 · US Subscription based expensive: Other apps available with much lower cost
  21. [R65] 1/5 · US $$$$$: VERY LIMITED !! Unless you PAY LOTS IF EXTRA $$$, Compared to other reliable weather apps, you might just as well look at your thermometer & look out your window for what they give you here for free !! They won’t even give you additional info on NWS Severe Weather alerts and warnings, unless you PAY, & PAY, & PAY & PAY MORE !!!!! Ps… I actually get more specific & accurate information from
  22. [R70] 1/5 · US $10 a month for radar?: Predatory app. This app preys on the unsuspecting via $9.99/week charge. On what planet does it cost $40 a month to see radar forecast ? Do not download, plenty of alternatives with free radar forecast or much cheaper subscriptions.
  23. [R103] 3/5 · US National Weather= more info without purchasing everything weather related.: Much less weather info than other weather apps for free. One option whole package or just basic 3 day weather.
  24. [R310] 2/5 · GB Used to be good but now almost everything is behind a paywall: When I downloaded this app a few years ago, it was really accurate and useful for helping me predict the weather. Now it's a subscription service and almost everything is behind a pay wall. All you get for free now is if it's raining or not rn. Which you can just look out of a window. If you go on the internet even bing will provide yo
  25. [R362] 1/5 · GB Waste of time: Why is this app any better than all the free weather forecasting websites and apps? Why would you want to pay for this? And what is the point of the free version only showing you the last 48 mins of weather forecasting via radar?
  26. [R21] 3/5 · US A good app with annoying “Rate Us” pop up: The app is fine. The too-frequent “rate us” pop up is annoying.
  27. [R241] 2/5 · US Warnings: Screen freezes up a lot !!
  28. [R457] 3/5 · GB Slow.: This app seems to much slower than the NOAA app it replaced :(
  29. [R492] 3/5 · GB Great ap but now not so: This is one of the best aps for weather until now. Despite reloading the ap twice there is now a glitch whereby the time sequence slider is running in reverse! Works ok on my other devices.
  30. [R2] 5/5 · US App Price: I’m so glad that the price of the app change back to a lower reasonable price 👍🏼☺️
  31. [R7] 5/5 · US Great info: Great and accurate information on all things weather. I just wish that the radar would give a longer prediction, like for the next couple of hours or so.
  32. [R3] 1/5 · US Business owner: I will resubscribe as soon as the Gulf of Mexico is named back as the Gulf of Mexico
  33. [R32] 1/5 · US Warning : Ads (cookies or porn your choice) i thought this was the weather?: Prior to now the biggest problem was the ads and the bait and switch to get you to purchase the premium version was a bit annoying. My reservations to purchase mainly the forcasts of local weather was not accurate 50% of the time anyway. And the cookie settings added on. But still, the free version was better than a lo
  34. [R57] 1/5 · US New updates make useless: This was a great app at one point now too much on screen for iPhone
  35. [R47] 5/5 · US Always accurate: This app out performs the other two apps I have on my phone. Time and time again Clime is spot on!
  36. [R231] 1/5 · US Way to expensive: Poor features on the free version, and no way is any weather app worth $10 a WEEK!
  37. [R260] 3/5 · GB Charge too much: Charge tioo much
