Forecast Now

Forecast Now suits me to a T. Others clutter the screen with so much information it’s hard for me to focus on it. This app opens with a menu listing each type of NWS information. Selecting an item displays it on its own cleanly-designed screen, making it much easier for my brain to grasp. While changing locations requires going to a separate menu item, with frequent use I can now rapidly swipe/click among the 4 locations I generally follow. I did often find the ads annoying but, as the app’s description spells out, they’re the trade-off for using a free app. Most ads can simply be canceled, though some have a 5-second countdown. The audio ads are easily muted with a tap on the volume icon. I recently decided to try it without ads for $0.99 per month. I like it, so will be signing up for the single $9.99 payment to ditch them permanently. I’ve encountered a couple of glitches in the app along the way, which I’ve reported to the developers. Both times they’ve responded within an hour, investigated immediately, and gotten them fixed – that same day in one case and within 24 hours in the other. In my book, that kind of support is well worth a few bucks.

Put back the dates when reviewing Daily forecast information. The last update removed the Dates for the forecast information. How do I get Color to show up in the Maps?

Great information direct from the best source there is. The only thing that needs work is the app itself. It’s a good start, but it needs refining. How about a quick list view of your cities accompanied by current conditions? Basically, switching between any of the options/information tabs is cumbersome. A few UI tweaks and this could be something decent. Finally, I don’t mind paying a subscription for a great app. However, this isn’t quite *great* yet. Keep up the work! Thanks.

Local radar feature has been down for days and support nearly impossible to reach. Just has general FAQ saying NWS radar info may be unavailable from time to time. For nearly a week???

I was looking for a decent weather app, but this one isn’t it. You can’t even get a local forecast without a 10 second ad jumping up first. And every time I tried something a different area another ad jumped up. There’s no way I would spend any money with these guys cause I can’t see what their service really looks like. Too bad!
