MyWeather - 15-Day Forecast Reviews

by CammySays

This weather app would be nice if it could locate me, but it can’t. It has no idea where I am to the point of almost being funny; I work in a different town than the one I live in, and it’s CONSTANTLY thinking I’m in the opposite town of where I am. Sometimes it makes up a town name that literally doesn’t exist on any map I can find. It will be correct about 1 out of ever 50 times I check, and even then it will suddenly switch my “current location” in the middle of me looking at MyWeather without provocation. To top it all off, the temperature isn't accurate. It’s usually around 3 degrees off from EVERY OTHER WEATHER APP I’ve used to compare. Why? How!?

I genuinely don’t understand why these things happen. I love the look of MyWeather , and I like its integration with the Apple Watch, but boy oh boy does the inaccuracy make it worthless.

I really want to like MyWeather, but the USA city/state locations are extremely limited or just plain wrong. These problems negatively impact the utility of the for USA users, unless you happen to live one of the cities that the developer got right. And, not everyone like to use military time (24hr clock). Give users another choice (12hr clock). Allow us a choice between 12hr clock and 24hr clock. Lastly, the reported weather is sometimes off by a few degrees when compared to other weather apps. Please fix this.

I have loved MyWeather and used it for years. It has just enough information for my location and those of my family, without it being too much. Perfect. Something like Mama Bear in the Goldilocks tale.
I had it on random rotation and enjoyed the surprise of different images each time I bought it up.
Suddenly a few days ago it stopped working, so I deleted and then reinstalled it. Now I can no longer access any other images except the original one. And further, quite often it stops working again, telling me it’s not available and to try later. When I do, it still doesn’t work, and I have to reinstall.
What’s going on? I’m having to look for a new app, but hate the thought of losing this one. Any suggestions?

This is a great app with just the right amount of customizable features without being overwhelming. The styles are pretty (and free!) and the data given to you is correct.

The only issue I am having is with the AQI Widget on my Home Screen. I’ve let it sit for a couple of days and it hasn’t shown anything - just blank. Hopefully this is just a bug the developer can fix. Their widgets and style were my main reasons for using MyWeather in the first place.

Thanks!

I love MyWeather and the themes are SO cute, but it is extremely difficult to find cities that aren’t the one major city in a state/province/country (ex. New York, London). I keep winding up with random little towns all over the world instead. The search feature needs to let you narrow down by country first. In addition, when you have it automatically find your location, it seems to only pull data from 1 spot for each city, regardless of how close or far you actually are from that location. MyWeather has told me all day today that it’s raining where I am, but it’s not.

I really like MyWeather so far is becoming one of my favorite ones, the only thing is that it feels too cluttered in MyWeather too much is going on I know you can turn some of it off in settings but it would be a lot easier on the eyes was was more minimal. I also do like how it’s not stupid expensive if you choose to get the pro version. Like other weather apps they charge you $50 a year which is ridiculous for a weather app.

MyWeather is cute. The icon reminds me of Miyazaki’s “My Friend Totoro”. It does very well, considering that it probably comes from Japan & is more familiar with international places like Hong Kong, Singapore, etc. than American cities & small towns. Like, it does not recognize Dallas, TX. Anyone in the United States or just generally in the West knows Dallas Texas. Still, MyWeather is fun to check occasionally. It would probably be nice for anyone who travels internationally.

After trying at least 10 weather apps, paid and free, I’ve decided MyWeather the one. It’s free, has a clean interface and works with the Apple Watch. The depth of information, however, is limited. No maps or radar information. While this can be helpful during times of unpredictable weather patterns or localized weather activity, it is not the purpose of MyWeather. MyWeather appears to be a substitute for the Apple weather app. In this regard, it offers slightly more information along with a beautiful interface and ad free experience. If you need maps and hate ads, pull out the $ and pay for a competing app, otherwise, MyWeather is the free, fast loading, multiregional, ad-free, nice-looking alternative you may have been looking for...

This doesn't replace the main iOS weather app for me, but a couple things I like - the 2x daily notification forecasts, and also the widget with a nice overview of places I travel constantly. If you're always in the same city then the apple single widget is fine, but it helps me to look at 5 cities at once. Also well designed, though MyWeather itself is a bit cluttered and takes some careful attention to really take in the useful information.

I was surprised to find that MyWeather has so many customizable features that do NOT require purchase. The many options for customization make MyWeather very user friendly. The widget settings are equally sweet and simple.
The design of MyWeather is charmingly minimal; The themes and graphics are modern and attractive without being too flashy.
MyWeather does lose one star because the ‘hourly’ view isn’t very prominent in the widget and in MyWeather itself and gets lost among the rest of the information. A clear and accurate ‘hourly’ forecast is one of the most important parts of a weather app to me (in addition to current/daily and weekly).
Despite this one issue, I think all of the features that MyWeather offers is enough to make me keep it and look forward to future updates and improvements.

Before being prompted for a review, however so far it seems pretty nice provides a lot of info (if you want it to). Many configurations options. Only problem I’ve noticed so far is the 24hr time option is a bit spotty when turned Off. Sunset(sunrise/set moon phase area) and Tomorrow’s weather are still in 24hr time. Isn’t a problem for me after 35yrs of using it at work, but may make things more difficult for other users. Nice sit alongside app for the other two I use (weather up for radar, and YoWindow for basic weather with unique interface), for when I desire a bit more info.

I just updated my phone to the iOS 14 feature, and have been looking for apps that have weather widgets you can add to your Home Screen. This is by far the best app so far, not only because of the cute and simple designs you can choose from, but also because you do not have to pay for them. My only problem is that when I actually try to add a weather widget, the widget always shows the weather in New York (I do not live there). I don’t know if it is just me, but if this could be fixed that would be great. Other than that, MyWeather is amazing!

This is one of the best weathers apps available. I had been using Dark Sky as my weather widget but I think I am going to replace it with this one. You can select all sorts of options for different Apple Watch complications as well as widgets in your phone. Just a few minor issues: my city did not show up in the search so I had to use “current location” and won’t be able to check weather when I am commuting home. Also the city displayed in the Apple Watch complications did not update until several minutes later after I changed to current location.

I've only used MyWeather a short time on my iPad but it seems to work well. I like the option of selecting multiple cities for current weather but I would also like to see a "weather MAP" that actually shows the rain, snow, etc. rather than just telling me it is raining/snowing/etc. That might be asking too much for a free app---but it works and I like it. The automatic locator feature is also nice since no matter where I am, I can see what the weather is in my location. It is a quick and easy app to install and set up. The initial app was in "C" temperature---and I quickly changed it to "F". The night and day lighting feature is also a nice touch. I would recommend MyWeather to everyone who travels or simply want to keep up with several locations at a glance.

i'm serious about that. Ever since installing this application, I find that checking the weather is such a joy to me. I love the layouts, the icons and simple animations - they are beautiful and fun, and the ability to choose a macro or micro view of the weather is great. I especially love the acknowledgment that many of us have global lives, and the ability to see all the locations that are important to us in one layout is genius. Thank you so much for an amazing app - I can't believe this kind of quality is free! I recommend it to everyone.

MyWeather is so cute and useful! Packed with a lot of features and all free! I especially love having multi-city weather for the next few days on the same page - better than the iPhone weather app, which requires you to swipe back and forth, not so convenient when you have a few cities saved. Also, the themes are really cute and, again, all free! Please design more themes!

by SEXYASIANMUSCLESTUD

It very accurate for me and it so cute though since I upgraded my iPhone X to my new iPhone 12pro max I had to redownload MyWeather and can’t get MyWeather to change the Celsius to Fahrenheit in the setting

Update:
Been trying to change it in the settings but everytime I try it freezes up on me and will not let me change it no matter how many times I have tried

by LogicRocker

The WC app is so loaded with ads and videos that the scroll hardly works. This is exactly the lightweight app I was looking for. It doesn’t try to do too much like every other weather app I tried. One thing I do miss from WC is when I would tap a day in the horizontal scroller it would bring up purely text detailed descriptions of the day. It a nice alternative to be able to read it. Anyway, nice work!

by Sunmornrain

Very cute weather app. Very pleasing to look at. I can’t stand all those “clean” designs out there that are so devoid in personality. This weather app comes with several themes to choose from, including an old school pixel theme. Weathers about as accurate as every other app I’ve tried. As some one who’s watched the weather for years, I can tell you on that front...yeah, they’re all about the same. Not even apps like Dark Sky will be much better than any other app. But I’m aware of this already, so when looking for a weather app, I’m looking at aesthetics. MyWeather is very easy on the eyes and I don’t have to look at boring standard icons half the apps use with the same old colors. MyWeather is more like little sets of art.

MyWeather is just so incredible and cute! I’ve been using it for almost 8 years if I remember it right. They improved MyWeather every time they updated it. I love using MyWeather because it has clothing index recommendation for the day and it’s very helpful for the mornings that I have to rush to work. The themes are also just adorable. Now they’ve added so many holiday themes, including Halloween which is absolutely exciting!!! You can also change how MyWeather icon looks on your home screen now. Wow!!! Love love MyWeather!!!

First of all my last review which was probably 3 stars was removed. Why?
MyWeather is cute but that’s about where it ends.
It’s alway a day behind. It’s Friday morning and the Push Notification that just arrived around 8 am says Tuesday .
A hard push on a Push Notification brings up today’s weather in °F even though it says it’s yesterday. But the rest of the week in °C.
Many days the high and low temp are identical. Today is a perfect example. 33°-33°. It was 24° overnight and going up to 50°. My weather calls for clouds. It’s a nice sunny day and forecast is for full sun.
this app, like most Chinese apps are bloated with fake reviews by people who clearly don’t speak English as their first language. The rest are unwritten 5 star reviews.
Apple needs to purge the AppStore of fake reviews and developers who encourage such behavior offing upgrades for 5 star reviews before there’s a chance to use an app.

Lovely designed app and good information in easy to read format. I downloaded for the Apple Watch app though. The Watch app itself is fine design wise but is slow to update with current information. But the worst part is the complication doesn’t update and if it does it’s with info that’s wrong and even different what’s in the watch app. And the watch app info is different from the phone app.

Keeping MyWeather to see how fast it develops since it has great potential.

by Vicari0

Love MyWeather ! For a free app provides a lot of info from UV indexes to what to wear on the day ! Would love to see these details/complications on the apple watch as well. Picks up Johannesburg weather perfectly. Would love to see these details on the apple watch as well. Havent tested the push notifications yet !

I’ve tried a fair few weather apps, but this one is absolutely adorable and very functional. The different themes and app icons give it a personalized feel.
What sold me is that it said it was cold outside and that wool overcoats and sweaters + SPF 8-12 were recommended for this weather, and that it’s easy to get a cold in these conditions. I have never had an app tell me to put a sweater on so I don’t get sick... so considerate (*´꒳`*).
