| 2024-11-27 |  | | I'm so sick of this app. I got it because it had a layout kind of similiar to the apple weather app I had on my old iphone. But the giant, full screen sized ads suck. I'm deleting this app tonight. But not because of the ads. I'm so sick of CONSTANTLY being taken to the screen where they want me to register my email address. This prompt screen pops up and takes me out of the weather info pages. If I try to go back to the weather, it just takes me back to the prompt. CONSTANTLY! |
| 2024-11-08 |  | | Does a good job on weather. Can move the map for the radar around to see what cloudy areas are coming in to affect future weather, which is good when hurricanes & bad storms are active nearby & moving toward or missing the area one happens to be IN. Thanks for doing a great job & being accurate. The BEST THING is that they don't constantly UPDATE the APP into not working any longer, like "weather one" does again & again & again & again, which makes their app USELESS & more useless & then DELETED |
| 2024-10-08 |  | | Not as reliable in terms of accuracy as it used to be. The local weather alerts were helpful to us, now, they appear to have gone away. As of 9/3/2022, the app no longer provides 'current location ' weather. Now it defaults to my home location, which I never set as any location. 12/17/22: Since the 9/22 review, the location feature is functioning again, however, it's not automatic anymore. I have to do a manual refresh each time I open my phone. |
| 2024-09-02 |  | | Generally your weather forecast is pretty good. I also liked my set up with several cities that I track. But a few weeks ago that changed and I haven't been able to set it up as before. I had to delete the app and restart to get anything. It's only half as good as it was before. So only three stars. Update: Generally good forecasts and I am able to see the weather in those cities that I track. |
| 2024-08-28 |  | | I have to say Yahoo! Weather is the most detailed and accurate weather app available. No other app is so reliable, I have never seen it quit responding. You want the best? Get the Yahoo! Weather app. I'm rating this again from my Samsung galaxy Note 5, the service has slowed down a bit but it's pretty accurate. I still say it's the best on the market. I'll have "note 8" soon, going to try it out again. Good work guys. Well, I'm making a rating on my "Note "8", Yahoo weather's still the best! |
| 2024-08-21 |  | | It's the most used app on my phone. It's great. update: nothing has changed - one year later - still the most important app on my phone. 2 yrs later: Additional feature: corona virus updates. Still awesome. 3 yrs later: still using this app daily. It is still the best weather app available. Aug 2024: over the years I've tried several other weather apps but always come back to Yahoo weather. It's the best of all the rest. |
| 2024-06-14 |  | | Nighttime temps are often wrong. Widget will not update at times. Full page ads are so annoying! They are large and disruptive, interfering with use of the app. Ads are fine, but not full-page ones! App is often buggy, like showing the wrong "current location" or not updating the widget without opening the app. Issues like this are common, & slow to be fixed. Like the information and UI. |
| 2023-10-27 |  | | PROS: It does exactly what I need it to do, tell the weather and temperature. I also like the unique way they put background pictures that match the weather condition. CONS: All of a sudden, there are pop-up ads that weren't there before. I used to think it was ad free. Why wouldn't it be when Yahoo has other ways to make money. But it could be worse. CONCLUSION: This app is fine if you just want a quick look at the current weather and don't mind unnecessary ads. |
| 2023-09-01 |  | | *Update* What's with all the rain pictures when Waco and most of Texas is going through a drought? WTH? This is the best and most accurate weather app out there. The background picture's for Waco, Tx are really blah and could use a huge change... It's the first app I download every time but PLEASE change up Waco's picture backgrounds! The old backgrounds are far and few between. There needs to be a variety. Another new phone and Yahoo Weather app is always the first app I put on my new phone. |
| 2023-08-20 |  | | Recently, I've been questioning its accuracy. It seemed to have not been on top of a recent, severe storm as much as other apps were. I still love the easy-to-read, informative at-a-glance visual layout. After 10 years, I'm now gonna try out an app called "Local Weather: Weather Forecast." |
