Pretty accurate and easy to use. I love that I can check the weather for any location before I travel out.
The changes on this version for mobile phone are better and with all the detailed information its still the best of the best! I wouldn't change for quids... or so I thought. Why was a simple little dot removed... a colour gave a lot of important information but now it seems one has to spend another frustrating half hour chasing around to find it. What is the UV for northern Tasmania late December??0 Thanks
Have used it forever, but after installing it on a new phone, it's become quite annoying: the first location ever searched seems to become the forever-default on app launch (I did a couple of re-installs now, each with different first location). no matter what favourites are designated or in what order the location list shows location. That reduces user-friendliness significantly for those who may be in different locations for periods of time...
Very hit and miss as to whether or not anything loads, often does nothing! When it eventually does load the info is pretty good.
I regret updating the app before reading all the reviews. It seems that the update was more of a downgrade. As the saying goes if it's not broken don't fix it.
