Odd precipitation percentages. So, I absolutely love the layout and design of this app. The ad placement is perfect. And it’s beautiful. The widget is also great. But there’s two things that drive me crazy and are about to make me switch. 1 - the precipitation percentage for a given day makes no sense. I’m sure there’s some method to it, but it will show some really low precipitation percentage for the day as a whole (like 19%), then you open the day up by hour and it will show multiple hours with 80% chance or greater. This is unhelpful. 2- I miss the actual descriptions of the day’s weather that are on other apps, where they explain in plain terms what will be happening. This app just describes the high and low temperatures and precipitation percentage, which is exactly what it already shows.

ALMOST 5 but 1 change needed. 🤔. Like Yahoo weather app very much. It’s accurate and gives little details that some don’t, like sunrise/sunset, the Moon phases, the 10 day(not just 5 or 7) forecast it gives a good general idea. Also Air Quality for those of us with allergies! I gave you 4⭐️ but will give you 5⭐️ if you’d update the city pics more often! It’s boring to look at a pic of just “water” every day, over & over again for Mackinac Island when that place has SOO much beauty to photograph! Although I live in Chicago, we go on trips, & have relatives in other locals so I check weather in about 5-6 locations & think you can update the pics more often than seasonally? How about monthly? That’s all! Still a good app! Not yet 5!

Would be nice if there was a legend for the symbols used. Most of the symbols used, like a cloud with rain, or sun are easy to understand, but sometimes there are symbols I have no idea what they mean, like the 3 wavy horizontal lines. Fog? Is that the weather forecast for the entire day? Fog? Wind maybe? It’s my forecast for tomorrow but I can’t get enough details about tomorrow to make a determination as to the meaning of this symbol that represents the day. Also, looking at my town as my current location I see 20% chance of rain for tomorrow afternoon. If I flip the page to my town by name (same place as my current location) it says I have a 68% chance of rain for tomorrow afternoon. That’s quite a difference for the same place! I don’t find this app very accurate wrt what is forecast and what I observe.

Needs active live radar sweep.. Good basic weather.. i would add to the radar map the option to 2have live radar sweep and storm track it would be a great service for those in tornado alley. The loop radar doesn’t provide time sensitive data. The STORM app use to do live active sweep radar not any more they did away with it on the forced upgrade iMay 2018., now their app is just a loos. Like everyone other app. You want to be the primer weather app add live active storm tracking weather to the map so people can zoom into a towns streets to see if the storm hail , tornado is tracking toward their location, this would be a life saving feature. Where as the loop is useless in those situations. .

Aug 2020: what was your design team thinking?. What happened in your update? Where’s the data, the Coronavirus stats??! This looks like a kid’s book now. Ridiculous changes and design decisions in this update. It’s bulkier and gives less info at a glance. What a disappointment. This used to be my go to app. I loved its concise data, small hourly view of the weather, and general appearance. There’s little left from the original version to keep me returning now. I have no idea why you would ruin a good layout and design. Your design team missed what people want. With the most recent update this month (August 2020) The weather icons are chunky, and fill up the screen. No appeal whatsoever. The original app was beautiful to look at with local photos that changed about every 30 seconds, pulled in from Flickr. They gave a personal view of the area with a stunning overall effect. I loved checking the weather just to see the photos in an area, too. That changed a few years ago. Now I rarely see any local photos and the ones selected rarely change or have nothing to do with the region. Often they weren’t even taken in the same country. I have no idea why each update has become less appealing. What were you thinking? Two stars. Downgraded from five. I think the weather is about as accurate as it used to be. But I can get that elsewhere.

Love the photos and temps, but the widget…?. This was my first weather app and a comfortable favorite. But like many firsts, its predictability and lack of freshness can get on the nerves and drive one to seek something new… But every time I go on a download spree to find another weather app, I always come back to Yahoo Weather. I just love the photos (though I wish they didn’t repeat so much for one location…) and simple temp readings for each day. What I can’t reconcile is the temp change when using the app and the one shown on the widget. It changes by a few degrees when switching from app view to widget view, and so I can’t rely on its accuracy. Any help here?

Average at best. I gave it a middle of the road score because it's right about 50% of the time. I'm not sure where they get their forecasts from but some improvement wouldn't be a bad thing. My wife's Weather Channel app is clearly superior to the Yahoo app I'm sorry to say because I do like Yahoo. I'm adding on to my last rating and I've lowered it. There is no rain, 0%, according to the next 10 days. Realistically, I just want the immediate future and as usual it's not close. It's raining right this moment as I stare at the 0% chance icons. They would do better to get the weather channel app and forecast from that. I have nothing to do with the weather channel but at least they had a 20% chance of rain. Sad to see no improvement.

Miserable Ergonomics and inefficient. Crappy software just got worse. Now one even has to scroll in two directions to see the hourly forecast. An example for function destroyed by design for the pure purpose of effect. Yes, weather information is shown and probably accurate. The interface design is miserable. Transparency and thin fonts often make text almost unreadable. Much space is wasted for nice pictures instead of efficiently displaying relevant weather information in an easy to read format that does not require scrolling. Another example of once good software degenerating.

Why did the age rating change?. Today I updated the app, and when I went to check the weather I couldn't find my app all of a sudden. I searched for the app in the App Store. Once I found it the download button said open. I clicked on the download button (that said open) and a message popped up on my screen. It said that I cannot use this app because of the age restrictions. I'm pretty sure this is because of my data plan. (It's one of the child ones.) I LOVED this app so much to begin with! I found the pictures to be beautiful and the weather forecast to be (decently) reliable. If there is anyone the age rating could be changed that would be amazing but I'd also understand if that's not possible! I'm still pretty confused why the age rating went up to a shocking 17+! It said it was for unrestricted web access, which is even more confusing. I will be giving this app three stars. The first star I took off is because the app only worked on WiFi which was really annoying because I'd use it in the car a lot to see how I should lighten my load. And I'm taking the other star off because when you make an app it should be usable for everyone, not just those who have data plans that are for over eighteen. I'm very disappointed that this age rating occurred. Overall though this was one of the very best apps I had on my phone, and I recommend it to my friends and family 24/7.

A Visually Elegant App. I use this for more than just weather. This app provides an opportunity to travel the world. I find myself adding cities that I would never have the chance to see. I've added Cape Town, Istanbul, Moscow, Paris, just to name a few. I like Paris because I get to see the beautiful rain and sometimes lightening effect on the screen. Yes, I've had some issues with the app not working or crashing, but it has been few and far between. Maybe I forgot to update the app and they had already caught the problem. I like it. I'm pretty sure they added a cloud effect that makes you see the clouds moving. Subtle and very nice. Somewhere a developer is saying, she totally gets my ideas.

Great photos! But...no photoshop please.... Have been using Yahoo Weather App for several years ignoring and even deleting the boring built in weather app. The big reason is that Yahoo Weather shows photos of the location, and they remind me of the places I visited and make me feel excited about the places I am about to visit. However this morning I saw photos of places like New York City and Venice photoshopped like crazy. The colors are way too bright and the photos look really artificial. Can you go back to more natural-looking photos please....? Other than photos, I like the fun design overall, like the sun going up and down, and waning of the moon!

Maps. The maps are horrible!! All it is is dark background with city names, no roads or signage visible unless you work hard to find what you are looking for. Takes two hands to see the smaller towns. The old maps were great. Streets, freeways, signage clearly visible. PLEASE GO BACK TO THE OLD MAPS!! They were not just a tool, they could actually be fun. I looked up my home and saw my daughter’s car in the driveway! When I change maps from radar to satellite, no change! Temperature and wind, information bars but no changes to the map’s coloration. I have been using Yahoo Weather ever since I got an IPhone. The rest of the new app is great but PLEASE GO BACK TO THE OLD MAP!! THE NEW ONE IS JUST PLAIN AWFUL!!!😖😖😢

Provides great information.. I love this app. I have been using it for years. I have put thousands of miles on my new little RV traveling across the country and I wouldn’t dream of doing something like that without the help of this app. As a single woman traveling alone weather is critical to me. This app provides outstanding information and is seldom incorrect. I have an old iPhone which only has 12.5 iOS. I hope Yahoo! never requires anything higher than that in order to access is terrific app. If it’s not broken guys don’t go messing with it.

Weather forecast and chart. I like your present format However there are several things that could improve this app. The time table runs too fast and does not add the exact time from the present to the end period a six hour segment is needed. Also have seen a format for past three hour to a future three hour format option. Also when you zoom into each area time zone it gets bigger but does not hold that area and pops back to the larger original look. So look over these requests and add to this to make it better yet more efficient. FUTUEE WEATHER FORECAST IS VITAL AND NECESSARY AND MUST BE EXACT AND ACCURATE. THANK YOU AND LIKE THE ADDED USA CITY AREA FORMAT TOO.

Used to be 5 star. Why exactly did you change the UI? There are a few issues here. The bars for each hour of the day... time is continuous and the graph for this should be as well. Nobody thinks about weather at the top of the hour. That area also used to integrate a clean view of precipitation probability. It’s lost. The hours of the day in each bar took me a minute or so to figure out. They are single numbers and not in time format. It is not intuitive. Also, the new “colorful” cloud and sun graphics in next section lack contrast and are seemingly bad for the color blind. This entire refresh seems to be design over function. You used to be five star and the only solid app yahoo had but now I’ll have to find another weather app. Remember when the app launched and the kudos it got? It was because the UI. You just erased that advantage and that is all that’s different from app to app. IMO, with this release you’ll lose some of your base (at least me) and the design lacks function so you’ll lose out to other apps for new installs. Remember when snap unnecessarily changed their design and nose dived? You were over 4 stars and your new designer might have harpooned you.

Yahoo weather app review. If there was the option to do so, I’d give yahoo weather a 4.6 rating of a possible 5. With three weather apps on my phone, this one is my longterm favorite. For several years now, by far, this has the best balance of a simple, easy to use layout with a variety of very useful information. The only reason I can’t give this a 5.0 is because the forecasts this last 1-2 years has not been as consistently accurate as my other weather apps. Prior to those years however I’d guess they were more accurate than in recent times. So I’m still a big fan and am hopeful yahoo can once again be a primary leader with quality information.

Inconsistent. Used to be right on. Last year or so it is very inconsistent. Almost changing minute by minute, with the stats wayyyy off from the day before. The 10 day forecast lists high and low degrees, but as the day changes, the next hour is off significantly. It did NOT used to be so “unsure”. Dont put up a 10 day or even 7 day temp range if it is not even close the same day posted. I can understand missing rain that shows forecasted, but the degrees are wayyy off. As my thermometer is changing is when yours changes. Yours is supposed to be a FORECAST of what it WILL be. Also, the high and low is backwards now. It used to be correct, and now, you have the “low” for the next morning in the date of the day schedule for the same day??? Doesnt anyone ever remember am and pm anymore??? The am should be on the next day’s low temp! Or switch the “high and low” view on the app to “low and high” so you see the next day. Putting the am for the next morning is the wrong day. This app is so screwed up lately i just cant trust it anymore.

Review of new app.... This app has gone downhill... the map of the radar is too dark to see any landmark features .. i.e. can’t see hills , canyons, country roads, vegetation, desert areas, wooded areas... the forecast area looks like it was designed by a 2 year old ... the background screens are wonderful... please bring back the previous weather radar maps because they did show a lot of details that are lacking in this updated version... I will be deleting this app if it is not improved... I will be looking for a weather app that gives me what you used to have...

This is a great app. It is of the most useful and frequently used apps on my phone. I can check how high or low the temperature is going to be and dress accordingly, see how likely it is to rain and when — up to ten days in advance! If I’m planning a trip somewhere, I can similarly just go to my list of favorite cities and check what the weather is now and will be for the same ten days there. And so while arranging to meet friends, family or business colleagues anywhere else on the planet, I can be on the page for their weather and time of day to converse intelligently and sympathetically with them. And in the immediate term, about to go out for a late bike ride, I can check the minute of sunset, the wind speed and direction, the air quality and the likelihood of rain, up to and including weather radar! Thanks, Yahoo!

Beautiful app but not functional. The esthetics of this weather app are phenomenal. I don't like ads on my apps and would gladly pay development to be able to remove them but it's a minor gripe. The main concern is over the functionality, specifically in the maps. For one, it uses satellite maps which makes it look antiquated and hard to pinpoint where I am in relation to everything else. Second, the accuracy of the radar seems to be off at times and doesn't show rain when there clearly is. I like my apps to have options as to how I want to view the data but with yahoo there is none. Sincerely hope that the devs read reviews and decide to add some better and more useful features than just a pretty app.

Detailed and accurate. I have not tried a whole lot of weather apps, but I did read about several before choosing one. The reason I tried this one is first, that it is free. Second, it is detailed with many options and as far as I can tell, seems very accurate. I love all the little animations that it adds for effect. Like showing the windmills spinning according to how fast the wind is blowing, and showing the sun moving across until it hits the area that it currently is at in the sky. There is a map of the area at the bottom that has several options for viewing such a satellite and radar. You can add and delete cities and move them around as you like. It gives a 10 day forecast. And a beautiful picture to go with each city. For a free app, this one is very impressive. And the advertisements that are inevitable with a free app, are non-intrusive. They show up as a section of their own as you scroll down through the various sections of each city. So you simply scroll past them and it is no big deal. They do not interfere with viewing.

Nice weather app. I was a long time user of the Weather Channel app for iPad until it stopped working. So I deleted it and tried to download the new one but couldn’t find it in the App Store anymore. This Yahoo app was free and had nice pictures so I thought I would give it a try. There are several features that I really like better than the Weather Channel app, namely, the 24 hr temperature chart and the graphic of the sun, wind speed, barometric pressure, and moon phase. These are very handy and make it easy to see at a glance a lot of information. The one thing that I am still trying to figure out is the nighttime low temperature. If I am reading it right (and I’m still not sure I am) the high/low for the day gives the high temperature first, then the low, so you have to look at the previous days low to see what the low will be that night. But the temperature chart usually shows one low, the written forecast another low, and the daily high/low chart yet another. It’s confusing to say the least. But overall I like the app and will continue to use it, even if it does confuse me at times.

Yahoo Weather Apps. The Yahoo Weather Apps provides all I need at a glance to help me plan my week. I like day by day break down that gives me how many hours in a day with sunset times so I could plan my evening walk to end before sunset. I also want temperature and wind speed when I ride my bike. If wind speed is 10+ mph and temperature is 40 degrees F, I know it is too cold to ride. I also have allergies and I need to know the quality of the air and this apps give me just that. I have compared this apps to other apps. The Yahoo is the best and is short and sweet and to the point to help me to make good decisions. I look at this app at 3 or 4 times a day. It is a great apps and I highly recommend this to others.

Best weather app I’ve had 🤟. I love this weather app! Very easy to use, forecasts are accurate, lots of extra data I didn’t know I wanted until I saw it and beautiful pix that make me look forward to checking everything out! The only things that I could suggest would be if I could set a notification to also see weather changes by a customizable degree setting, I had a widget that shows the current temperature on the Home Screen and maybe a horoscope button for fun. However, I’d totally recommend this app for anyone. 🌞

Why does my location need to be on 24/7?. I used to love this app but recently the widget stopped working and now only works if you have your location turned on (which drains battery life if kept on all the time and also allows apps to track your whereabouts). Yahoo Weather used to allow users to manually set their location in the app and have that be the default location displayed in the widget, but now the widget only work based on “current location” regardless of whatever location a user has manually set as their default location in the app. This means users are forced to turn on (and keep turned on) their location in their iPhone’s privacy settings in order to get the Yahoo widget to work, and I’m not doing that. It is disappointing because this app really did used to be awesome and easy, but now I’ll have to rely on a different app.

2020 update??. This has been my go to app for the past 5 years. When the opportunity arose I highly recommended Yahoo Weather to others because I did not had one thing that I would request to be changed. Not the case since the 2020 New Look. The graphics now make the app look like a kids app, but I’m willing to look past that. Other than the daily weather, I used the satellite images the most. But with the New Look the graphics have made it unusable. If this does not improve, I will have no choice but to go on a search for another app. I’d like to say Thank you for meeting my weather needs for all these years.

One of the best weather apps out there. This MUCH IMPROVED weather app is now impressive. They clearly understand what is and isn’t important for weather data. It’s not loaded down with time consuming and uninteresting videos like “the big” weather app. Plus it’s down-to-earth approach is simple to read and quick to go through without all the annoying ads. I wish there were an option to “buy out of the ads” if so desired but the fact that it really only has one ad is impressive and makes it clearly a #1 pick and a “must have” app for anyone going out of their home! Way to go folks - you nailed it! I can now delete “the big” weather app!

Nicely laid out. I've tried several weather apps, and there are some nice features that make this one my overall favorite so far. First of, design-wise, I really like the background photos selected from Flickr. Much nicer than seeing the san he background all the time. The main design feature I like its that all the info, hourly forecast, daily forecast, etc, are all in one screen. You just have to scroll to u find what you need, unlike some of the other apps I've tried, where you have to tap around and open different screens to see different info, of course navigating around introduce ads. As for accuracy, we haven't had much actual weather since I've been using the app, but so far it's been pretty accurate.

Yahoo weather used to be great. It's not great anymore because it's become very, very hard to scroll down to see the rest of the weather because this app now gets stuck and stay stuck on the advertising it doesn't allows the user to continue to see the rest of the weather. It's gotten so annoying that I'm thinking of dumping this app and going to another today. But I'll wait a couple days to see if this is just a glitch. Right now it's extremely annoying and makes this wonderful app annoying, and almost useless. I hope this helps return yahoo weather to the wonderful app it was.

A review for the “new” look. This app USED to be great..... You changed the app so it looks more kid-friendly. Wow. And, in the middle of a pandemic, you decided to shove the corona virus stats down to the bottom instead of front and center like it was 3 days ago. (Sure, THAT will make everyone forget.... just in time for....). Ok, I accept that not everyone wants to see the covid-19 stats every time they look at the weather. But WHY have you removed my State and the USA stats? Do you think each of us only cares about our city or county? What if we are in a hot spot and think the whole State is a hot spot when it’s not? Or, worse, the reverse? Please go back to giving us the information that we all need. The coronavirus hasn’t gone away. It’s still here and it’s still taking lives - all over the USA. AND, people are recovering all over the USA. Give us back our unadulterated stats! Please!!!

Constant Improvements - Nice Job. Over the past several years, Yahoo has made some great improvements. This app always worked great, but now it’s better than ever!! I especially like the most recent improvement whereas by scrolling left and right in the hourly temp/rain/wind forecast you can see what to expect “by the hour” out in days. Being a fisherman, it enables me to properly schedule my day out on a boat knowing what time the winds will pick up or rain will move in. My hat is off to Yahoo! Just when you think they can improve this app anymore, THEY DO! It’s my sole “go to” place for weather! Nice Job Yahoo!!!!!!!!!!

What could make a difference!!??. Yahoo weather is my go-to; Numero uno. Next the NYTimes and puzzles and news and so on. For me, I always look at the weather with attendant moon, tides, air and natural phenomena. However, the Covid 19 has taken precedent to everything else and I sincerely am thankful for your daily updates on relative vital statistics on the county level, the state and America. However, there is a glaring omission that I feel could be easily corrected, which would be helpful and illustrate and underline the message. POPULATION NUMBERS and % I have a list of the population of each state and the county where my family and my friends live.l This gives me personally a more conclusive look at the concern I have logistically for family, for friends, for my world as a whole. I even have the populations of most of Europe, which inform me as to how California stacks up. The message is, that Pam Dixon is not unique or very different in many ways from millions of others who are probably writing in to tell you how they cherish their Yahoo Weather News, yet, there is something missing!! Thank you for being so ‘present’ for all of us, for we are all in this together. Happy Holidays! Pamela DixonThis never got ‘sent’. ? And now phone won’t ‘flip’ to other weather locations I have checked. Maybe a menu would work if the phone is dumbing down?!

Great App!. I’ve used this as my go-to weather app for years but the recent redesign has brought with it consistent errors and not enough information. Earlier today, it said it was sunny and raining at the same time (not a cloud in the sky). Now, it says scattered thunderstorms but nothing on radar and no storms can be seen or heard. Since the redesign, these types of errors have started popping up frequently and I no longer feel this is a reliable site to determine whether outdoor activities can be undertaken. After using it, I find myself opening another weather app to see what’s really going on so why bother starting with it? Please bring back a reliable weather app.

Beautiful, but buggy!. Update: Lately in the past couple months I am getting notifications saying rain is forecast in the next 15 minutes, which is great, except the city it says it’s going to rain in is 300 miles away, and not a place I’ve been to/through/heard of. I even deleted and re-added the cities (only two along with current location), but it didn’t change anything. It’s also doing the same thing for next day temperature alerts. Original: There's nothing better than opening a weather app and seeing a beautiful picture associated with the location you've chosen, along with the temperature! No wonder they won a design award, this is by far the best design I've seen so far!

Still great after all these years!. Have had a Love-Hate relationship with this app over the years. Still using it though, and right now it’s looking as good and working as good as it ever has. The weather information is nicely presented throughout and the vertical scroll of additional weather detail never feels cluttered or chaotic; quite the opposite in fact! I’ve always liked the Sunrise/Sunset section right at the bottom of the page and the way the sun stops revolving at the exact moment you perform the check. The collection of photos for the various cities chosen as weather locations was much better some years back, in that, had MUCH more variety, but again it’s a feature I’ve always liked, those shots of cities worldwide. Kudos!

Review. I really like the break down on the temperature hour by hour. I really like the dew point so I can watch so if it gets into the fifties we know rain is close or even raining. I like the break down of each day and the display of sunny with clouds etc. Basically I like your formate. Thank you and keep up the good reporting. May God richly bless all those responsible for the good reporting 🙏✝️🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏. John 3:16. You are loved by God and may you all be saved so when we take our heavenly trip home to be with God we will all know each other. Then you’ll be able to give a weather report that is always a perfect weather report ! 🙏✝️🙏🇺🇸🙏

Why the changes?. The older version icons were easier to read at a glance. I am not sure what the gray figure is to the upper left of the sun/cloud icon. The app is not as attractive and not as easy to read as the older version. Childish looking is what I think when looking at the app now. Why not work on the overall accuracy of the weather information?? Also, please take off the covid information. Your job is to give accurate weather information. Please work on that in the app. We are already reminded most of our day about pandemic. I use your app to try and find a time to go outside and have an escape for the situation ,since for months that was all we were able to do here. Please take it off...stick to the weather. Sorry guys I did the update and still disappointed in the “ childish” look of the app. Good thing there are other choices.

I’ll just look outside..... On the positive side I like that I can add and click on certain cities to see what they’re weather will be or that when traveling the app “usually” maintains good location services, but sadly more often than not—the forecasts aren’t very accurate. At home I can almost NEVER get active radar and sometimes can’t get any weather info at all. I can check and literally watch the apps forecast change, but like today the forecast called for no rain and partly sunny yet their radar clearly showed a band of showers (although it wouldn’t show active radar—again) it was pouring down rain and 10 degrees cooler than what the app showed. Sadly, this is typical for this app. It seemed pointless to give feedback when—apparently no one either reads reviews or does anything about the complaints. So, I’ll just look outside and check the temperature on our outdoor clock. Forget planning ahead.

Best Weather App Out There. I love the Yahoo Weather app! It works great. I downloaded it prior to one of the earlier updates. There were some reviews that advised against that old update because they said it caused problems with the app. So I listened and the app has worked flawlessly. Now, a few updates later, I finally decided to update the app. I have the most current update, and it's all good. Works well, no problems. I highly recommend this app and the current update. Sometimes I believe that reviews may be misleading based upon the device and network provider too. FYI, I am on the Best network, Verizon. And, I am running a 64 Gig iPhone 5s. Great phone, great network, very happy!!!

Proper Prognosticators. I have found this site to be a more accurate source than any of the channels on telly. Perhaps, it is because I have moment-to-moment access; then again, The Weather Channel does, purportedly, yet, whilst they are fairly impressive with guessing Atlanta's weather, we in Brentwood TN are a veritable afterthought. (Plus, Channel 5's lovely Daphne can only be one place at a time ... 🙄😊😎💟✝️!) This site has played "dead" a few times on me and I would appreciate that being ameliorated in the future. Still, I cannot expect perfxn out of man-made devices. Thank you for your service and attention to excellence.

Used to be really great..... I really liked this app after I removed one that was way more ads than info. This one is starting to annoy me now 😞. I would like the older version that would allow personalized settings that would stay put even after closing the app. And getting really tired of the ads again.... Maybe time to look for another new one. Wouldn't mind paying a small fee to keep what I liked. But this is no longer that app 😞 Update...Still hating the ads 😡. Getting more frustrated with each new update. How about a pay version to REMOVE THE ADS?! And thanks for adding Corona virus back but I liked it at the top not mixed into the crappy ad space. If you want to do a positive thing how about adding the date to the days’ temps.

Redesign is a mixed bag. In general, I like the new look of Yahoo Weather which appeared when I upgraded to iOS 15. I also like the info on air quality and the hourly temperature forecasts for the next few days. But some of the redesign decisions are negatives. I miss the local photos; I don’t expect you to have pictures of my little suburb, but I am only 11 miles from a major city, and live in a medium-sized state. Surely you could come up with something less boring than a generic sky photo as background to the forecast. My biggest problem is with the lack of an index for the radar map. How am I supposed to interpret the large purplish cloud moving in from the west? Not a clue in the app. Which is better, a green cloud or a red cloud? No way to tell. Without an index, this stuff is just decoration.

So delighted. I’m very happy with the Yahoo weather app. I love the design and backgrounds. I’m 73 years old and have tried many apps and they are ok but do not have half the detail and information that Yahoo does. The best part is if you don’t want all the detail in your face, the main screen is just the beautiful background and the current weather, not so crowded with other detail that you have a hard time even finding the temperature. But also makes it very easy to get to any detail you may want to know. The new update with the coronavirus information was a really nice surprise. Great work developers 👍

Yahoo is great from start to finish and user friendly!. Yahoo is my go-to, quite compulsively I confess! There’s plenty of information in what I find is an attractive and whimsical layout. The pictures are beautiful, often stunning so, it adds to the enjoyment. I’ve been an outdoor woman for all of my life so, I live by it and delight in weather experiences during each wonderful season. I would say that weather is one of my hobbies so, apart from all the fascinating stories I enjoy reading, as well as, research, Yahoo! is the perfect little tool in my toolbox! I have it set to various countries because I like to check on weather happenings in the world and I diligently refer to Boston’s forecast in advance, as well as, the countries I’m traveling to and of course when I’m there. All in all, I can say that I’m obsessed with weather and in awe of Mother Nature so, Yahoo! is the best. I love getting updates too! I always recommend Yahoo!

Travel the World Each AM, Plus Plan for the Day Where You Are. I’ve loved this app since I first downloaded it 5+ years ago and it’s become one of the first things I check before starting and planning my day. Not only is it extremely accurate, its stunning photos, animations and real-time effects allow you to visit locations around the world you might already know and love, just aspire to visit one day or may have clients, friends or family in. Quick tip: if you load your fave locations by order of time zones, west-to-east, you can zoom around the world simply by continuous swiping! As an aspiring world traveler, it helps inspire me, season-to-season. Also, the satellite maps allow you to explore regions as you check-the-weather there. Perfect for business or vacation travel planning. I’m rarely caught off-guard, thanks to Yahoo Weather!

The latest redesign is not good.. The latest redesign has made the app less useful for me. It’s showing me less information in less space. It used to use the whole screen to present more data, now it uses half the screen, in a centered column, to show less information. You have to scroll quite a bit to see everything. In some parts, the text scrolls past the window it’s in and you can’t scroll to see the rest. Without the animations this app is far less “delightful.” I think the App Store editors should reconsider their praise for the design of this app. Update: they’ve expanded the “centered column” of info to fill the whole screen, so there’s less scrolling and info seems to fit in each frame. I still miss the rain graph which showed precipitation as a graph under the temperature graph. Now I have to read the percentages and process that info. A minor complaint, I understand, but “at-a-glance” info was the appeal of the app for me.

One small(ish) complaint. I realize that this is primarily a weather app, and as such it seems to perform well. But it’s also an aesthetic object, meant to enhance our experience of weather information, and in this it often fails. For the past few weeks it has fed me the same, very boring background picture on each of my chosen cities. Whenever I update the information it gives me the same boring picture again (it used to give me a new picture every time I updated the screen). I wouldn’t mind so much if the picture were a good one, but it’s a terrible picture - just a flat piece of ground at the very bottom and bland, grey sky above. Am I being punished for not having a Yahoo account? Did the world suddenly become flat and bland, with a grey sky? Who knows.

Sunny when cloudy. I have used this Yahoo weather app on and off for the past few years, and today will likely be the last day I use it. I woke up to cloudy and cool weather, so I checked the Yahoo weather app to see when the possibility of rain will be. Upon opening the app, it said “sunny”, with a clear bright sun icon. What? So I thought oh, the app probably didn’t have a chance to update, so I checked another weather app, immediately the other app showed cloudy skies with possible rain in two hours. This “other app” also showed the exact temperature that my home thermometer was showing too. So I went back to the Yahoo weather app...doink! It still showed the weather in my area as sunny with not even a cloud underneath, and it also showed a much higher temp than what I showed in our area. This is typical of the non-accurate Yahoo app that has disappointed me as in many times past. There are many other weather apps out there that I have found to be more accurate than this Yahoo app. Maybe for other people it is different than what I stated, but for me it has proven to be mostly inaccurate.

Love This App!. I was using a weather app from Apple App Store, not very happy with it but not a lot of choices. Just a few days ago, it stopped data and asked me to pay for it. After a lot of searches I found this one. Now I love it more and more! One feature I love best is that you can change the temperature f/c just at the bottom of 5 day forecast page, without going back to settings like most other apps! I’m still in the process of getting used to this app, but base only on this one feature, I love it! I don’t know why there are not a lot of choices in Apple App Store, and a lot of them are charged which is quite different from Samsung. They have more choices in weather apps and they are free!!!

Good simple app. A nice simple app. Shows either 5 or 10 day forecast. Does have some adds unfortunately. However if you want a simple app that will tell you the weather and the chance of rain, this is the app for you

Yahoo Weather literally saved my wooden floor. If I were not warned by this app of the upcoming overnight storm before I went to bed my newly paved wooden floor upstairs would have been ruined by the rain. Thanks to Yahoo Weather which reminded me to close the windows promptly!

Awesome App. The app is awesome. Provides contemporaneous accurate weather results.

Perfect!. After downloading and deleting 20 different weather apps I stumbled upon this one and it has just the right balance of visual and numerical information, nicely designed with minimal ads.

Presentation. Great. Beautifully presented and I really like the Covid-19 details. It’s my first port of call to find out what’s happening in Australia

This app is absolutely AMAZING!. This app is easy to use and extremely accurate.

Location. It only does major cities I think it should have more towns

Weather app on iPad. I have hunted high and low for a weather app that is equal to that available on my iPhone Unfortunately there is nothing even remotely close, this app is very poor quality and on a score of 1 to 10 is about a 2 Looks like I will have to use the mobile for the foreseeable future

Very good weather app. I use this app all the time to get information on the weather . It’s accurate , simple to read and the extra information on the COVID cases also helps . For a free app , it’s excellent .

What is the best weather?. Easy to read and get to the point, very simple local weather we are planning for car trips. You don’t have a wet weekend or go for a long weekend it’s better than planned. Ahead is nothing worse. You don’t wanna go in the in the rain that makes uncomfortable when you got a Family plan ahead go on a picnic give a long weekend and that’s one thing it’s very simple nail the fancy stuff I’ve always be a big fan of yahoo. Keep up the good stuff.

Enough to with the new BANNER ad!. Instant delete and back to Apple’s stock weather app due to the over large and irritating banner ad halfway through page!

Style Over Substance. A very pretty app with nice scenes to go with your weather forecasts. Unfortunately those forecasts are often (in some cases, nearly always) inaccurate. So if you value visuals over facts, this is for you; if you want accuracy, look elsewhere.

Must have. Yahoo’s weather app is a must have single app for weather as well as Covid updates

weather showing problem. It shows fake weather

MrsFfanofweatherP. App stuck on permanent refresh. Using too much data and power in background. Can't access info on it. And Can't DELETE The Darn App now Either. I want to get rid of this app. Yahoo and Developers Do Something about this Now!

I turn my back.... For just a minute and too much is thrown out. My city is no longer recognized so my weather has disappeared. It still looks great but I’m no longer included . And for heavens sakes moderate the suggestions “forum”. It has clearly been ignored, is an utter mess. Obviously from the condition of it not a single suggestion has been looked. V unprofessional. But 3 star coz it is still the best looking and best set out app. I am deleting it though because there is no point in using it.

Continually using location services. I’m not sure if there was a recent update by this app is constantly accessing my location even though I’ve changed to “only whilst using the app”. Never noticed this before.

Widget background image cropped. The background image of the widget now has black bars on the side. Only noticed it after the latest update. Otherwise a solid weather app.

Absolutely wonderful app. Easy to use and Accurate all the time,I recommend this app to all users who wants to know about weather in your city.5 star app

Skygod. Best weather app I've used, deserves the five star rating:-)

Weather. Find weather reporting good

Like Tina Turner Sang.... Simply the best. I was really surprised when I got my IPAD 2017 and it did not come with a weather app?? So I looked around and low and behold, stumbled across this, clean, polished accurate app. Simply put, this is the best free weather app on the market today...especially for Australia. If Yahoo kept producing simple and effective applications like this, they would not be in as much of a tech pickle :)

Yahoo Weather. Yahoo weather was really good when I first got it , but now is terrible. You can’t swipe from side to side to the next city. It is so annoying trying to do this. Very disappointed.

App frozen like the weather in Winter. iPhone 8 app does not work anymore - you open it and it’s frozen - can’t see the weather can’t click or scroll - app isn’t doing its main purpose. I have tried reloading still doesn’t work - please fix.

Yahoo weather. Love this app but it would be better if it had a radar as well as a satellite

Recent changes not great.. Still simple to use with precise details, however the recent changes: Fonts, Icons and pictures done to this app makes remember an outdated Power Point slides from 2000.

Very Good. This weather app is an excellent one for me as it is easy to comprehend.

My world. By using the app can put down the countries l visited the world is huge its like having oster once you had one you want more travelling is the same

Great World Wide. This is the go to weather when travelling. Just tap on current location and you have weather for 10days. The input future destination then you know what to expect on arrival. So simple to use and no pop up advertisements.

This weather app is the best. It does everything you want and its very pretty photos scroll through regularly

Inaccurate. I use 2 other weather apps, and Yahoo is always way out in temp and forecast. Example: tomorrow the other 2 apps (One of them is BOM, the govt weather bureau) predict 60% chance of rain. Yahoo?? Zilch chance. Sorry Yahoo, your useless

Don’t like new update. After last update App stop showing COVID cases, new design looks like a kids cartoon, app can’t show my correct location (before update was no issues). Already downloaded previously deleted Apple weather app. Yahoo weather app already out from my shortcuts.

Widget UI issue. The widget cannot be displayed correctly on iOS 15, with a black corner on the top left.

My Go-To App. Have used this app for years now - my favourite go-to app for weather here and overseas. Looks good, too, and has all the information I want.

I Wish. I wish the radar would work, I wish the rain was not the same or similar colour as the green land background, fix it, and it’s a great app…..

Great Weather App!. This is such a great app. It's so elegant but undercut with simplicity and convenience. There's so many great extra details that really help, like wind speed, a satellite and much more. I think that this is probably the best weather app I've ever stumbled across.

Has stopped working. The app has been working okay on my phone. It often doesn’t refresh on my Apple Watch. I now can’t get it to work at all on my watch. It just shows the loading screen with the cloud and the suns moving and that’s it. Have tried uninstalling and putting it back on but no help or change. How can I fix this ?

Once gorgeous -- now junk ware with ads -- let me pay to remove the ads. I loved this App. Then Yahoo Destroyed the GORGEOUS UI. Then Yahoo added horrible ads that truly distort the experience. I feel sad. And I'd gladly pay to kill the noise. Anyway I'd gladly pay to stop ads. Even $10 because I love this App. Now I can't stand it. Pollution.

Display color issue. The color of temperature number in widgets cannot been seen clearly. As the back ground picture is dark and the number is black color as well. Please change the color to white or something else so that the temperature number can be seen.

SA AU resident. Clean and simple love it Would be great to see photos of more places though!

Excellent. It gives me all I want from a weather app.

Notifications not showing up. Notifications are showing up for iPad and not iPhone15.

Just works. Excellent app, easy to use

Yahoo weather app. Was great until recently. When i tap the icon now it wont load up then after about 30 seconds just goes back to home screen. On the occasions that it does load up, it then freezes. So i did a software update then uninstalled and reinstalled the app, but still no joy. What is going on with it, would someone PLEASE explain how this can be fixed once and for all, because i really like this app! 🤗

Easy to understand. Iove the pictures and is very easy to understand it could just add the chance of rain and it will be perfect otherwise really good

Good Information about Weather app. Hi Yahoo Weather your app is outstanding thanks so much I can even check the weather on my Apple Watch thanks for a great app.

Best Weather App. Seriously superior than all the other weather apps I’ve tried. Phenomenal. Very useful.

Amazing app ... Are use this app for long time . Really It’s my best weather app. Thanks to all who helped to made this app.

Yahoo weather. Timely updates and alerts helps to prepare and face weather.

UV index erroneous. Not a bad app except for the fact that the UV index can display “low” when in fact it is ”extreme”. Fix it Yahoo, I wouldn’t want to be in your shoes when litigation starts. (Try Elders weather app if you require an accurate UV index).

Good info/ easy UI. It’s a simple app, with a good UI which I like. I can see updates really easily without having to scroll through a bunch of junk. This is what I want in a weather app… to know what’s coming up for the next few hours or days. If there’s bad weather coming I can then go online for more detail.

Ads. How to get rid of the annoying ads

Great app. Tells me everything I need for the day.

Great photos, poor metric conversions.. Also the forecast temperatures almost always seem to be out of sync with other apps I use on other devices and - almost always wrong.

Best weather app by far. Not bad but needs to be a lot better to meet yahoo’s reputation or industry standards.

Prediction. Fairly accurate

Peu de choses à améliorer. Très belle application météo gratuite. Les informations y sont précises, l'arrière plan propre à chaque endroit attrayant et la publicité n'est pas dérangeante ou envahissante comme peuvent l'être autres applications gratuites du même type.

My favourite weather app. I’ve used a few and enjoy the way weather is shown on this one. Add in the extras like air quality and pollen and sunset times it’s my fav.

Weather. Always right on the. Temperature like very much I agree with the note above always right on enjoyb

Always great expectations 🌷. Yahoo weather always right

Apple default App Way Better. Don’t waiste your time downloading

Removing. It was my favourite weather app for many years. With the latest update it became horrible, the standard weather app now even better than this. Who designed it? It just looks sketchy

Great App - Annoying Ad placement.. Have gone back to the weather network app - I understand you need to advertise - but maybe just have it sponsored by Claritin or a snow removal company.

Yahoo Weather. My favourite weather app.

Absolutely HORRIBLE update. I’ve been using this app on my iPad for a couple years and have LOVED it. This morning, I opened the app to find it’s been completely overhauled, updated, revamped. Honestly, this update is horrible. It looks like it was created by a grade school kid for some computer class. Absolutely HATE the app now. Deleted it. Now searching for a new Weather App.

Yahoo Weather. Look no further, this has to be the best weather app out there. It is very good.

Poor forecast. No rain in your forecast , and it rained

Yahoo Ed. Always liked it and still do

Go back to the other font. The new bold font is awful. The previous version was clean and beautiful and the update looks cheapened.

Not happy with new look. Just opened the Yahoo Weather App quick love way better than the Weather App on iPhones but I’m sorely disappointed with this new look. No more curves of hourly temperatures. Now everything needs to be in a box and there’s absolutely no more flow to the hourly temperature and precipitation through to the rest of the day. Big thumbs down!

Forecast Review. I am using it daily. Even few times/day. It is very helpful. Is giving full picture of weather related to location. Temperature, humidity, air quality, wind speed and direction Thank to opportunity to use it

Bum. Love it. Use it all the time.

App Broken/Dead. App has been broken/dead x 1 month. It states “Updating” at the top of the page and “Unable to retrieve the forecast. Please check your connection” at the bottom of the page. It doesn’t update nor connect if you stay in the app. Please fix!!! I used to love this app & especially all the different photos that were submitted for each location and I used it daily. Deleting & reinstalling app does nothing to fix this issue. Was a 5 star app. Will update review to 5 stars if app is fixed.

From nice and stylish to ugly. Deleted.. Fire your graphic designer.

Warning about Privacy Settings!. Thanks for not disclosing that you snuck in ad tracking, search history and location tracking by default. Very sneaky as this is NOT mentioned at all in your version updates. All users should go into the app’s internal settings > privacy settings and switch them off one by one. Like others have said, the new icons and font look awful. Congratulations, app deleted after 5 years!

Please improve the map. The map is lousy. It only shows clouds and wind. What we NEED in a weather map is the Radar map that shows PRECIPITATION. Then this app would be perfect. What good is a weather map that doesn’t show when it’s going to rain or snow?

Best weather. This is by far the most accurate weather app for my area .

Ads Annoying Ads. Give us the ability to remove ads for a fee. Until then this app is deleted.

Thanks for your efforts. Good for weather

Regrettable Redesign. Visuals have gone from being sophisticated and relaxing to childlike and cartoonish. Deleted.

Yahoo weather. Previous was much better

Interface. Using 2.0.3. What used to be a simple and professional interface now looks like an app designed by an child. Revert back please. New font is terrible too. How do changes like this make it pass quality control??

Radar. On your radar map it’s hard to read because even the storms are in green matching the land surface!

The Ads are too much. I would give it a 5 star if there were NO ads. I would be willing to pay to get rid of them. Will be using an ad free Ap for weather

Brutal. You guy are terrible 2nd yahoo to get deleted today and 3rd is next

Fahrenheit?. The app asks my location and then gives me results in US measurements? Why isn’t this app smart enough to provide metric degrees? Why isn’t the default Celsius?

Still too show since the graphic update. Since the graphic update the app is still soooo slow / almost unusable on my iphone6s I might have to switch to another app. Maybe the images in the bg are too high res? I don’t know but the app is too slow to wait just to get some weather info

It’s raining!. It’s raining & yahoo weather app isn’t even showing the storm we are getting!

Yahoo weather. Great

Best one yet. Accurate reporting weather app.. Always keeping you up to date with the latest developments on temperature trends and climate

Weather. Excellent reporting , useful information usually correct as to the actual weather. I’m quite happy with the weather reporting

Alex. Excellent !

Quite accurate. I don't use anything else

More accurate. Yahoo weather is more accurate than the app that comes with my phone.

Can be disappointing. Sometimes the app will not appear at all. Therefore, can be disappointing when you want to see the current temperature.

Beautiful presentation. Beautiful Photos good information

advertising. I don’t like ad so I deleted it immediately !

늘 함께합니다.. 캐나다에 살면서 날씨는 뉴스보다 중요한 매일매일의 일상입니다. 그리운 한국의 날씨도 가끔씩 체크하고 달이 유난히 밝은 날은 어느샌가 이 앱을 체크하게 됩니다 10년도 넘게 변화무쌍한 날씨를 시간별로 알려줘서 너무 잘 활용하고 있습니다 이제는 외출전에 확인하는 습관도 생겼습니다 그동안 너무도 감사했습니다 앞으로도 잘 활용하겠습니다 감사합니더

Best weather app. I’ve tried all the other apps and this one is on point

Weather on Warwick Drive😊. I can depend on an up to date accurate forecast to plan my day. Thank you as I do depend on it! Makes my life easier.😁

Adsterra is the most preferred ad network for those looking for an alternative to AdSense. Adsterra is the ideal choice for new sites with low daily traffic. In order to advertise on the site in Adsterra, like other ad networks, a certain traffic limit, domain age, etc. is required. There are no strict rules. Sign up!

Precipitation could be more accurate. I’ve been using yahoo weather for years (like since 2004 before apps were even a thing) and have always really liked it, but have noticed recently that the precipitation forecasts for my area are less accurate than they used to be. I don’t mean the 10 day forecast, i mean it can be raining currently and this app tells me its not, while my coworkers all have apps with more accurate breakdown. That being said, i really like everything else about this app & i’ve been using it so long i’d really rather not switch

The App Doesn’t Know My Location!. *UPDATE* The app still can’t keep up with my location! Even though it has some great information for where is was, it doesn’t update to my new location! I was in West Palm Beach, Florida, yesterday and now I’m in Bedford, Massachusetts, this morning but the app thinks that I am somewhere in Florida! I’m a pilot and visit many different locations throughout the month and lately this app doesn’t know where I am. I keeps just giving me the weather/temperature of my home location. Somethings wrong with the app. Please fix!

Pretty but useless. I initially downloaded this app several years ago because it looked much prettier than the Apple app, and at the time I believe both apps were getting weather data from the same source. The app is still just as pretty as before, but the data is garbage. The temperature is far off, today for example ten degrees lower than the Apple app reports, the billboard outside my window reports, and lower than it feels. In other words, it's wrong. It says it's raining when it's not, it reports no rain in the forecast when I can see rain outside my window. I've tried both selecting the city as well as using "current location", and those report roughly the same things. As a weather app, then, it's useless.

92% chance of greatness. I really love this weather app. The information is presented in a simple and easy to understand way. The graphics are unique - I love the windmills showing wind speed. It’s my new go to app and has place of honor on my home page. My only critique is that the NWS issued a winter advisory and not a thing showed up in this app. Everyone else had the warning. I checked to see if I had a setting I missed, but I couldn’t find anything. The radar also was not displaying the huge storm heading this way. Pretty important for a weather app.

Precise and Accurate Weather NOW. I need the weather to be easy to view Located on one page, with current conditions and what we can expect over the next 24-48 hours. Yahoo weather is the best by far!! Easy to read with complimentary colors, all the info we need for current conditions and what we can expect for the next 2 days with respect to outdoor activities. And the forecasting is correct which is a huge deal. The Covid info is a nice extra during these uncertain times. Thank you

Problems on iPhone 11 Pro Max?. I’ve always loved this app! It’s my favorite weather app out there, but I’ve noticed that ever since I got the iPhone 11 Pro Max I haven’t been able to delete locations. The current location also wouldn’t update from Vegas back to California even though I’ve been back for four days now. I updated my iOS to 13.1.1 and updated the app and while the current location now updates, I am still now able to delete locations like Iowa and others that I don’t want anymore. Any help or new updates would be appreciated. Thank you!

Don’t like 2020 June? changes. I have always loved this app, I like to see what the weather is in favorite places and see the photos. A couple months ago it changed. It had a graph that showed the weather expectations through the day with the percentage chance forecast on a line graph with the temp. Now it has a bar graph with less detail. Bring back the old one please! On a good note, I like the COVID updates, new way or old way is fine on those.

Yukon Wealth Report. I have just started using this app and it really gives me updated weather forecast for all of the cities I have picked out, plus it also gives me great graphics and pictures of each of the cities I have picked out. Also gives me the weather for the next week, with highs and lows of temperatures, wind, rain or shine, and especially humidity levels. I am really enjoying this weather app, and will gladly give it five stars. Redriderjr

Love it !. This app tell me everything even that how is coronavirus going and it tells me of the weather is safe for people I love it make sure to download this app . Also they even have cool pictures for kids to know what the weather look like. And there are many adds if u don’t like them u can just delete it. And again the best thing is that they tell if the people are safe or not we really need like this information thanks bye! Please download this app!

Needs A Little Help. Okay so there is one thing that I would definitely change if I owned this app and that is the photos that they use. I've been reading reviews saying that they are inappropriate, but I haven't experienced that myself yet thankfully. I have Tanzania as one of the places that I look at for weather because I was doing a school project on it and the photo was Terrible! There are so many beautiful things in African wildlife and they chose a bunch of gray, sad, buildings, when they could've put Some animals running in the Sahara. Also, I live in Lewisburo so I have that and the photo is of the cloudy sky!!! They really need to up their photos! Other wise this is a great app ~Anaonamous Ten Year Old

Updated : accuracy has gone down the tubes. This used to be my favorite weather app, but in recent weeks, the accuracy has completely tanked. I don’t know where it’s drawing it data from, but it is now very inaccurate, especially on rain predictions compared to other (reliable) sources. For example, I keep getting random numbers, like 53% or 47% rain prediction at a specific hour of the day, when the radar is completely clear, and ALL other weather sources say zero (which invariably has been the correct forecast). I can no longer rely on it. Fix it and I’ll reinstall.

Almost perfect but not yet!. I continue to download other weather apps and they seem to disappoint. My last go to was the weather channel. But after the latest update where they have changed it all, I no longer care to use that app as well. At the end of the day, yahoo weather is so beautiful to look at. The point of carrying a smartphone around is to show off the screen. Yahoo weather doesn’t fail at that. My ONLY complaint and it’s a big one! I look forward to the day where I can flip my Apple Watch and have it sync flawlessly with my iPhone yahoo weather app. Every day I look at my watch and it says it’s a specific temperature, when I cross check it on my phone, it’s way off. Yesterday my Apple Watch yahoo app said “85 SUNNY” all day. When I walked out of work it was storming! I don’t know about the rest of you, but that’s an important piece of information. Please! Please I beg you! Fix the Apple Watch yahoo weather sync issue. Then, this app is probably the best out there!

A “must” for me. I have four different weather reporting icons on my iPhone and I depend on this one for accuracy. Especially for barometric reading. I am a 50 year migraine sufferer and when the barometer starts to drop, I need to know. When the barometer starts to drop, I know I can’t plan anything, go anywhere, or even bother trying to read. The pain, pressure, dizziness, and confusion take over and my day is done. Once the barometer starts moving up again, I can start to function again. I prefer readings in inches versus millibars.

Fun and informative. I’ve had this app for years now and look at it numerous times each day. It’s fun to see what the weather is like in the far flung towns and cities of friends and family. Also, it’s interesting to see what the weather’s like in foreign locals where I’d like to be or am curious about. Being able to follow the air quality and humidity is nice, too. I like that it is often updated throughout the days and weeks …… Good job, Yahoo!

Now my go-to weather app. When the Weather Channel app stopped being useful (too many ads, too many crashes) I began a serious hunt for a different app. It shouldn’t be that hard, yes? Well, it was! After a couple dozen abandoned other apps, I was frustrated: too complicated, too commercial, too buggy. I was about to give up on weather apps when I stumbled on Yahoo’s weather app. It was everything I was looking for: basic weather data for my current (and selected) locations, an uncluttered presentation, easy to absorb at a glance. And it’s free, AND ad-free. Thanks Yahoo!

Uninstalling...for now. I was a fan for a long time. And I really want to continue to be a fan. But as of late, all the morning and evening forecasts come in as "Daily Notification/Daily Notification" alerts. And I've allowed the app to track me (which shouldn't matter) and I've signed in (which I don't want to, but I get it,) but the "Daily Notifications" issue remains. Maybe I'll be back; I came back before. Responding to Dev question on 9/16: Yes. I've had Daily Notifications on the entire time. It wasn't until after the last or second to last update that all morning and evening forecast alerts would just show "Daily Notification" in bold as the heading and "Daily Notification" as the text.

Really like this app. This is the 4th weather app I’ve used since smartphones and apps became part of our lives. The simple weather app that usually comes with a phone doesn’t provide quite enough info. The Weather Channel app is not easy to navigate and taxes the phone. A wind specific app I tried was quirky. But this Yahoo weather app has exactly what I need and is user friendly. I like the settings that tell me the weather when I wake up, and remind me in the evening. Like the wind features. Like the “feels like” display. Nothing I really don’t like... I’m just not in he habit of giving 5 stars to anything!

Poor changes. Today the COVID information was missing. I watch that closely for many places around the world from my home in the US, to Amsterdam, to Cape Town. You also have way too many pictures of clouds when there are much better pictures. The picture for Breckenridge Colorado is completely incorrect. The picture of Cape Town doesn’t look anything like Cape Town. What has happened to your website?

Weather changed. It used to be fun to look at the weather report because there was always a beautiful picture of what the weather looked like. That was when I lived in Boulder Colorado. Now I live in Redondo Beach California and on the weather app, it is always dark of night. No matter what the weather is doing or what time of day it is, dark of night is the picture. I still enjoy the weather facts a lot and appreciate all of the facts that are included but it’s depressing to see it all dark all the time.

I don’t like the changes. Idk why the app was changed and don’t understand why you went to less unless I’m missing something here! I used this app daily and being as I lived in two different states and commuted back and forth from Las Vegas NV to Livingston, MT!! Polar opposites as far as weather goes! I depended on this app for travel plans etc! I no longer see the 15 day ahead forecast I also used the real time snow/ rain and the allergy/pollen chart because I have a daughter with lung disease severely affected by allergies??! I enjoyed all the videos as you put in news across the US and always added comical weather mishaps etc!! Where is all my joy I got from this app??

Great app, except.... I have used this app for many years and I love it. The photos change daily and reflect the actual weather. I love all the info. Recently I updated it and now I have advertisements, which is fine, except there are some really disgusting looking photos in the add. One is of a long disgusting looking worm, another of a green blended drink being drunk out of the large blender container while the green/brown liquid drips down his face. Who wants to look at these sickening photos, especially first thing in the morning. This app deserves a five star rating, but please clean up your adds.

It never shows snow. This app never shows snow, ever, even when we’re in the middle of a heavy snowstorm with temps well below freezing. All this app shows for precipitation when the temp is below 32 degrees Fahrenheit is sleet. I live at 6,000 feet in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California, and so far this year we’ve had 5 snowstorms, not ONE of which showed as snow on this app. All it shows is sleet. The snowflake icon is gone. There is a big difference between snow and freezing rain, but this app no longer makes the distinction. The overall accuracy has gone down considerably compared with the weather app that comes with the iPhone. I’ve been comparing the two apps for the last 5 storms, and the Yahoo app is consistently inaccurate.

Just about everything you need. Of all the weather apps, and I have tried a lot, this one covers all the bases. The Weather Channel app, while very complete, has annoying visuals. Speaking of visuals, one thing that would make this Yahoo app perfect would be to customize the image in the background. I get the most unimaginative images that often have nothing to do with where I live. I have a Yahoo photo account. It would seem something that could be easily addressed in an update of the app.

Dated website. While the website does not project a future radar prediction for weather, the air quality graph and the Covid 19 information were very helpful in the past year. However, the virus information took a significant turn in February of this year when your statistics became dated, were not kept up to date and did not match CDC or FDA data. Since the site does present future radar predictions or correct virus information, I have called on other websites for better information. I am hopeful that you ca update your site in the future. Thanks for the opportunity and I would appreciate your feedback as well.

Freezes up. I used to love Yahoo Weather. I tried a bunch of weather apps over the years and Yahoo blew the others away (my opinion). I was a walking advertisement for Yahoo Weather. However, in the last month or so, the app freezes up on my iPhone and iPad. Not all the time, but enough of the time to be aggravating. So, I’m looking around for a new weather app. Now, to be fair, there is a possibility that the freezing problem may be linked to iOS updates, but I only notice this problem with Yahoo Weather.

Almost perfect. Beach warning across screen for three days now, there’s no way to dismiss it and I don’t go to the beach. Also, the picture doesn’t change when you refresh the screen, same boring picture day after day. I do like the other features but I have deleted the app and will be looking for a new weather app. Stunning photos??? I get the same ugly dark moon day after day, I live in California!

Wonderful!. I think this is a great app! Beautiful pics, 10 days out, and the current time in each city you build into your list. Not to mention all the little extras like the wind speed, the humidity, and even the moon phases. I think it has the moon phases. If not, yahoo, can you please add that in? Thanks! And...I LOVE it that it is so easy to alphabetize your list! That right there was a game changer for me. I love it also, that when you’re on the road, and you check the weather, the location that you are in is the first forecast that comes up. I love this app!!!

Five stars from me!. I truly appreciate an App that lives up to its claims and which doesn't require me pay more for something! I use the Yahoo weather map daily. I use the extended forecast when making plans for trips or for events. The photos are beautiful. I love that I can see the weather in the cities my children live in which was extremely simple to set up! There are really too many great uses to mention. This is the perfect weather App for me.

Wrong temperature. I rarely write review but feel that this app needs a correct rating. Its layout looks nice but the temperature is 99% wrong all the time. It shows at least 5-9 degrees different compare to the actual local temperature. I always double check the temperature from 2-3 different source to make sure Yahoo weather is not wrong as I hope but 99%wrong all the time. Yahoo needs to fix this since its very essential app to start out the day. Updated: this app is now unable to use because it keeps giving the" unable to load" on top of this, it now has obstructed ads that are very annoying. If Yahoo dont fix this soon, there will be tons of ppl who will sing" let it go" to this app.

What’s the weather today?. I suppose one thing that most people have in common is wanting to know the weather for the day. I enjoy yahoo weather report because they are quite accurate and they offer other interesting information like air quality, etc. I can view hour by hour, or day by day easily. It’s a very helpful app I use multiple times a day or night. 🙂

Love it!. Edited again. Giving up on this app. Shows “null” all the time. Deleted and re-downloaded a few times. Still nothing. 🤷🏻‍♀️ The no nothing native app is better. Edited: One complaint and that is that there appears to be no way to get a weather alert sound. I have it turned on in Notifications, but unless I happen to see the alert as it comes in I won't see it until after the fact. Unless I'm missing something but I've tried googling and am doing everything suggested. This one tops TWC for being ad-free and I hope it stays that way. This one is clean, easy to use, and doesn’t have a lot of junk in the way just to see what the weather is, today or in the coming days. For now, I’m loving it.

Accurate & Nice UI, but Occasionally Unreliable. Have used this weather app for years. Props to the developers. The main things I like are the beautiful user interface, accuracy, hour by hour (so I know precisely when to expect rain), 10-day, other cities, as well as wind info. My only complaint is one that I hope the developers will take into consideration. Occasionally the app freezes which limits the valuable information that can be viewed. This is the one thing that makes me consider changing to a different app for my weather.

One of the best for whatever is going on in weather. I’ve been using this Application for three years now and it’s great! The photos and weather features are a 10. Most of all the accuracy is tops most of the time. I never get bored with this app and it’s highly efficient. I really like that you can go anywhere in the world to see what’s going on with weather and the accuracy is very good. Keep it up engineers I love it

Weather feedback does not work. I have spent the last 90 minutes (WHO has that kind of time to waste???? ) trying to get help from yahoo re weather app. No answer from yahoo Help and weather feedback does not work. ☹️. All I want to know is the name of the photographer whose Flickr photo was posted at 6:30 am PST of San Francisco half-lit, so that I can file it for future enjoyment. The photo was changed some time around 9:00 am. and I have no idea how to find it. Can ANYONE help ??? Thank you.

Terrific fine points. What I appreciate is that one can be more specific about location. Just because the temp at Houston’s George Bush airport, does not mean all of Houston is the same temp. Houston is a very large metropolitan area. My location is in Houston 15-ish miles south of the airport and the temperature isn’t necessarily the same. I’ve been able to refine my search with Yahoo and get a more accurate reading. Heat and humidity— feels like temp. Thank you, Yahoo.

Me. This app changed a while back, and it’s wasn’t for the best. It tells you there’s a 90% chance of rain, and when you look at the satellite photos you can see that there’s nothing in the sky at all. It should have been left alone the way it was. To those in charge of individuals that put forward new ideas constantly. It’s their way of self justifying their jobs. Seriously, sometimes it’s better to leave well enough alone. Stop trying to reinvent the wheel

Best Weather Forecast. It’s been over 60 years since I started watching the weather and weather forecasts closely. In recent years, both in Northern California, Oregon and around the USA, Yahoo Weather, compared to five others, has consistently provided the most accurate weather forecasts, both short and even up to ten days, a very long time in weather forecasting. Keep up the very good work. Your forecasts are the best! Ric M.

Ruined UI. This app used to be so simple, eloquent, streamlined, beautiful, and fun to use The App Store screen shots (at least looking at right now from an iPad), no longer match the UI in it’s current state, they’ve made significant changes… switched to fatter and bolder fonts, placed information into 100% opaque containers, switched to more 3D style icons, tried and failed to get too clever with some of their container usage in the daily forecast, and I just don’t understand ANY of it… this app’s appearances have been consistent for YEARS, and constantly praised as it’s greatest achievement… who TF asked for change? Absolutely nobody I’m sure… Undo this hideous eye sore of a facelift, and reimplement the fried and tested design people have praised and loved consistently for years… EDIT* I’ve spent some time now looking through a bunch of other reviews, sorted by most recent, and just about EVERYONE is saying the same thing I truly hope Yahoo! is listening, and just complete revert this entire abomination back to a previous state

Bring back the older version please. I have 5 stars the first time I downloaded Yahoo Weather.... Yahoo weather was simply awesome before this new version came along! No doubt on the Accuracy of temperatures and forecasts is immaculate not just locally, any location your lil heart desires!!! But now, the map won’t let you zoom in...it remains dark and hard to read. I love it so much that I only use yahoo weather! The font needs changed to a more elegant viewing in my opinion. The images are no longer local...just changes I wasn’t prepared for😭

Take off the coronavirus updates. Please.. I check the weather as a distraction or for a note of encouragement. Last thing I want to see is a big banner telling me how many new coronavirus cases were diagnosed in my state for the day. I am getting barraged with that from every actual news source. Please take it off or make it optional. I am downloading other weather apps in the meantime despite having used and enjoyed yahoo weather for years. Coronavirus cases have nothing to do with the weather. You are pushing people to click it to go to Yahoo news and that is disgusting. Please take it off or make it optional. I am downloading other weather apps in the meantime, despite having used and enjoyed yahoo weather for years.

Not as accurate as iPhone app. Your original app was great. It was simple, easy to use and accurate. It didn’t invade my privacy didn’t need f.g cookies was accurate. Didn’t add all these friggin extra icons to fill up the screen and and make it more difficult on the eyes. I live in a place where there are like 8 temp. So it helped a lot knowing what coat and clothes to wear. Zones within 60 miles. It was e,asy to use and helped with trip planning. It was easy to change the order of weather cites.i can’t use any of these features cause you want. Who wants their privacy stolen to look at the weather. Not me. Stop being greedy and leave our privacy alone!!!! I want to fill in my own 3 blanks for weather. My and sf wouldn’t be most peoples pics

Decent app - love the simplicity. This is a decent app with a simple and elegant interface. However it would be excellent if it displayed more granular details about future days (unless this feature is there and I'm missing something). For current day it shows hour by hour breakdown of temp and precipitation. However I can't see the same for any future day. I travel a lot for work and to know if the rain is going to be periodic or all day or if it will be significantly warmer or cooler from am to afternoon is very valuable. I have resorted to multiple sources for this info which defeats the purpose of having in app. This one will probably be short lived and I will look for something else.

Needs better definition of terms and radar map display.. The app is easy to use, and essential information is easily obtainable. But the display convention can use more details. I figure out that the two temperatures displayed are hi and lo, with the blue one being low. But the displays for evening, night, and morning are not clear what time period they are referring to. Even correlating with the Forecast fails to provide a clue. And unlike the regular Weather app link, the radar only shows the past two hours. Cannot find the option to forecast the next 5 hours, a feature that is convenient for a road trip.

Ignores permission levels to use location even when not using the app.. I used to enjoy this app a lot as seeing the sun rise/set was helpful for outdoor activities. I have worried about permission levels however and have it set to only use permissions when I’m using the app. Somehow, now when I look at the time on the lock screen I see the notification saying that it is actively using my location, or when I am on the main home screen of my phone and don’t even have the app open in the background. As it is expressly ignoring my permission settings, and Im not even sure how it is doing this, I will be deleting the app and finding a replacement that takes my permission levels seriously.

Using this app since they launched - 10 years!!. I have been using this app since its launch. It was Editor’s choice and App of the Year at the time. I love the cool graphics of sunrise and sunset. Also love windmill turning the speed of wind. Info on Allergies was so great to learn. Love the feature that you can turn from C to F and vice versa with just one tap. No clutters!! Easy to use! Not many annoying adds. Only one add but it doesn’t pop up to disrupt your workflow. It sits on its own space. Really amazing app!

Excellent App, but.... Love the pictures that accompany each location, and the precipitation graphics add a nice touch. Don't care for the adds, but that's the price of a "free" app. Would be nice if they were more subtly located. One complaint that others seem to be experiencing: it frequently freezes, and you have to exit and reboot to unlock it. Fix that and it gets 5 stars. Wouldn’t mind ad-free for a modest price. Otherwise great. Like the location pictures and data seems to regularly reflect reality.

Ad Targeting. After using this app for years I was suddenly inundated a couple of years ago with targeted ads that are nothing more than disgusting stereotypes. I would never be interested in nor buy anything being pushed into my face in these ads. I understand that apps have to make money, but this is NOT how to do it. I urge everyone using this app to immediately go into the app settings and then “manage privacy” and go through each of the categories (they don’t make this stuff easy for a reason) and LOOK at all your information they are selling and sharing with anybody they can. It is really disgusting and predatory. Apps are able to make money — and even sell/use ads — without allowing this nonsense to happen. It shouldn’t be legal to begin with.

Not like it was - missing location service option in settings. I’ve use this app for years. My primary go to. However, I just transferred all of my information from an old iPhone into a new one. I opened this app, and it did not know where I was. There was no option in settings to let it locate me. In addition, there are cities that are now missing. I’m very disappointed because it was my favorite. Now looking for another one.

Leave it to Yahoo to come up with a simple to use app. I have about 8 weather apps loaded. The all try to be fancy, and in doing so become a mess of jumbled features and navigation hell. Yahoo’s app gives you all you need in a simple and natural to use way. I have to give credit to the Ui designers. Of course they integrate with all the other Yahoo apps and you can get an account key and other features in the tri-bar slide over. The morning notification, is small, concise and simple.

My preferred choice for weather.. I love this app for easy updates on weather anywhere in the world with beautiful photos of the regions & cities selected. A swipe of the screen allows for more detailed information & at least a 5 day forecast, of temperature, wind, humidity, precipitation, with optional satellite or radar imagery. Very unique is the ability to link to a gallery of photos for each selected city. Yahoo Weather is my preferred choice in viewing weather & sending city views to my friends overseas.
