Changed artwork & animation

I’ve had eWeatherHD over seven years. It was excellent and I recommended to several people. Now, it appears to me that they lost their designer or artist and they took their artwork with them. The background looks like a low resolution dated light blue clipart bubble-ish template. NOT SKY or CLOUD looking AT ALL.- It is the background even when it’s raining.?? The only other options are 2 dark blue screens, both so dark it looks like night, or black! The clouds also now have solid black edging’s that look like a grade school student colored it. When in the world you ever see a dark solid black outline on clouds when you look in the sky? I have my animations and settings set correctly, so that is not the issue. Pretty much any weather app can get the accurate statistics, so the animation is key. This is so visually unappealing now compared to what it used to be that I am deleting it, even after buying it a SECOND time because I thought the animations were not working due to sharing a newly added family account (years ago used same Apple ID) -they were so stagnant and different from what it used to be I was sure that was the reason. I had emailed the designer and heard nothing back … and loved it so much prior, I actually purchased it a second time under a different apple account. STUPID me - wasted $4. Jumping to another more appealing app.

My Go-to Forecast

We live in the country in North Texas where weather can change quickly, so current radar & forecasts are a little
Off to Earth
and to

imperative. I use eWeatherHD on both my iPhone & my iPad. It provides all I need I for this area, plus the same kind of info for cities where our grown kids live. When we plan a trip to a different part of the country, I temporarily add that location weeks before so we know what to expect. The graphics are incredible, & the data to back them up is rich & as accurate as your local TV forecast. Weather warnings, recent earthquakes, tides, & Amber alerts are also available. Options allow you to customize what you see & hear. I can't think of anything they haven't thought of! The only reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the occasional lack of consistency between the main page with forecasts for the next several days plus all the stats for moon phase, hours of daylight, etc., & the next page showing long or short (your choice) descriptions of the forecast. Those used to be in sync, but recently they don’t always appear to be updated with the same forecast as the main page. If that were fixed, I don’t think there would be anything left to make it perfect.

My fave weather app

When I show it to others, they want it. Got it for the progressed barometer readings for the day - useful to figure out if yr migraines are triggered by pressure changes. Pretty accurate on when precip is expected. And can check weather in surrounding areas. Lovely graphics organized on the screen. International earthquake alerts for those interested in, like, the world. Keep track of weather in foreign countries I'd like to visit. Loads pretty quick too. U probly need this.
HOWEVER-- update: I recently find that the report of the actual current weather is not at all accurate. It can be pouring outside and eWeatherHD says it's cloudy. In other words, it's not up to the minute. So looking out the window will have to do for that, but it means I may not be able to trust the current temp reading. My other apps, AccuWeather and The Weather Channel provide good real time reports.
A year later I find the reports are still not quite current in my area. But the general forecast seems close enough.
Love the layout tho. Nice graphics. Very quick to navigate thru features. Doesn’t have videos like Accuweather and Weather Channel tho - but those are often slow to load anyway and guzzle battery.

Recently returned to the app - great by for one thing

I really like eWeatherHD. It’s come a long way since it started. There is a ton of info contained - it’s highly customisable. Probably everyone who wants info has it there.

It didn’t get five stars from me mostly Becuase if the Apple Watch implementation. There’s he clock face in eWeatherHD which is a reasonable attempt at a weather watch face worm around. And there’s a very short on info second display for the day. There’s no forecast on the watch. And zero complications. Both of which are pretty necessary for me.

As it sits now I’ll probably use it on my phone but there’s no use on the Apple watch. Also I’ll continue to use dark sky for to be minute hyper local notifications. So it’s great on the phone. But missing hyper local (which maybe doesn’t matter that much) but the Apple Watch implementation needs a ton of work. It’s just not helpful at all. Despite being somewhat pretty.

Been happy since the last update

No real issues, definitely better now it’s not in Russian. Sometimes takes a while to update, but I don’t update in the background - saves drain on my battery

New update 2020 continues to give weather alerts in Cyrillic on all my iDevices, overlaps words in today view on my iPad garbling them, the weather clock garbles and covers itself as well. Also no longer have the weather clock, seems I need to download another app and pay again to have it on my today screen. I’ll go back to looking out the window as much use as I get from this now. Update 6-2-18 This has been my go-to weather app since I installed it. Does everything thing I need and want a weather app to do and does it well - still gets a 5⭐️ rating!! Only had this for a couple of days, but so far it works great. I like the temp on my icon and all the info available (pressure, humidity etc).

Only Weather App You’ll Ever Need.

This is the absolute BEST weather app I have ever used, and I don’t plan to ever download a different one. eWeatherHD beats all others for its quality, ease-of-use, user-friendly interface, and plethora of useful features. This all does everything those fancy schmancy subscription-based apps do, for a much smaller and ONE TIME ONLY fee. That fact alone was my main incentive for downloading eWeather in the first place—if i’m going to pay for an app, it should unlock all the features. Good on this company for doing just that. For the level of information eWeatherHD makes accessible, they could easily get away with charging monthly or at least increasing the initial price, and yet, they don’t. If you’re on the fence about downloading eWeatherHD, take it from me: YOU WON’T REGRET IT. I have happily relied on eWeather for years as my only weather source; that will never change. I even persuaded my mom, a big weather person who peruses various weather sources, to download eWeatherHD. Initially, she was hesitant to pay for such an app, but once I showed her everything it does she knew it was a no-brainer, and to this day, she talks about how great eWeatherHD is. Download it now! It is worth every penny!

Great! Best weather app I have.

Update: cooler photorealistic view now in the new version. Still my go to weather app.
This is my favorite weather app. Works great and the alerts it delivers for hazardous conditions are very much appreciated.
It has a very cool layout and provides a lot of information. Very customizable. Two sources of weather data are available and you can choose one or the other (or both) depending on your location. Very easy to see the upcoming 10 days via icons placed across the bottom of the screen, or the next 12 to 24 hours on a "weather clock" with customizable icons representing the forecast conditions. There is a graph showing the change in temperature or the barometric pressure over the last 24 hours (you can switch between them). I think the radar display is fine and works well. Very well done. A lot of information organized in a clear and concise way.

Superlative in Every Way!

This is an elegant, full featured app that will blow you away when you see what is offered in it, the quality of the information, and the beautiful displays. Other reviewers have given details about the features, so I only will add that the customer service response and help is every bit as good as eWeatherHD and quick in answering. Their courteous answers are knowledgable and clear. No tech speak, for one. For another, screenshots with explanations for me, were emailed in reply to my question. If there were six stars I wouldn't hesitate to award them all to eWeatherHD and to this developer.
Update: eWeatherHD continues to be refined. I like the list of cities of interest I have previously named that shows all the temperatures and status in one condensed view.

One great weather app

One of the two weather tools I use everyday, and is my "technical" app for when I want a forecast with good details. Has the option to get the weather forecast data from more than one source. (You see this as 2 separate forecasts; like you would for 2 different locations). Like a lot of weather apps, there is a "weather at glance" page, however, there also a 'details' page where eWeatherHD really stands out. With graphs and trend lines, when I'm trying to understand what the weather is doing this is where I go. The radar page is accurate and can be run in a loop to see movement, unlike some other apps. I have used this for several years and it never disappoints. Recommended to all my friends, now I am recommending it to you. You should buy eWeatherHD.

My favorite weather app hands-down

I am convinced that there aren’t any good weather apps on the AppStore with the exception of this one. It is focused on the weather, not advertising, and has a very clean interface. I LOVE the fact that you can select different alert tones for severe weather alerts. It’s nice to be able to differentiate between a tornado warning and some arbitrary push notification, which I completely ignore ALL of the time. A BIG thank you to the developers for including that option. You may just be saving lives, whereas other app’s severe weather notifications are sitting on a lock screen or Notification Center that absolutely no one looks at or care about.

Ding...you have a notification from Facebook.

Ding...there are crops waiting for you to harvest.

Ding...You’re dead! A tornado is about to rip your roof off and give you a free one-way flight to a neighboring city, so enjoy that Survivor rerun while you can.

That’s not me though because eWeather HD doesn’t do dings. It gives out a clear and distinct tone that makes you look at the phone. There are a few notification sounds to choose from so take advantage of them. Let’s see, what else? Did I mention I liked the alert sounds? Just buy eWeatherHD , you’ll love it and you may actually live longer by installing it.

Best Weather App

Unbelievable! The more I use eWeatherHD, the more I discover. From its two-weather-services option to its clear display with selectable simple or complex views, to its brilliant time wheel with its 'look ahead' feature, the list goes on. But it's all packaged in an incredible user interface with well-thought out, attractive controls. Someone else criticized the designers writing that the info is available elsewhere, but all info is available elsewhere! It's how that info is packaged and controlled that makes one app better than another, and this is, by far, the best of the best. Many weather apps try, but this one delivers more info in controllable screens that are understandable at-a-glance, with worldwide earthquake and weather alert info as well. It excels!

Nice updates! Accessing forecasts geographically is great, and the graphics updates are superb.

Love it!

EWeather HD has several easily accessible formats displaying an amazing amount of data, for virtually everywhere. You can quickly move from an hourly projection to a 10-day forecast to a map or terrain view showing clouds by satellite or a radar loop of past, live and projected radar, and zoom in and out from the whole country to street level view. In the 24-hour projection you can drill down to change the type of data shown from temp, feels like, chance of precip, amount of precip, wind speed and direction, humidity, dew point and geomagnetic. In the 10-day you can see a summary of all days or highlight a specific day and see a breakdown of important parameters for that day. It even shows earthquakes and tides and more, if you want it to. It also works internationally although some functions like radar may not be available for the chosen location.

BEEN MY FIRST GO-TO WEATHER APP SINCE ITS INCEPTION!

I was one of the first couple hundred people that noticed and bought this weather app on the first day. I can’t remember when it first came out exactly, but it has been my FAVORITE for years! Ever since that first day - this weather app has been incredibly reliable, accurate, and has a systemic flow that provides quick and excellent weather information from a quick glance, to providing historic weather data that no other weather app (that I have seen thus far) has!!! The colors are absolutely beautiful, attractive, and easy to read. All of this, and the company has never made a move to gouge their customers with silly subscriptions. THIS IS REAL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND LOYALTY. LOVE THEM!!! eWeatherHD is incredible. I am shocked that Apple has not made a move to incorporate it into its own weather app. This is easily in the top three weather apps in eWeatherHD Store!

Still the best all-around comprehensive weather app in the store!

This is still my "go-to" favorite weather app. I say “still” because eWeather HD gives me more useful information than any other weather app. I know this because I have purchased more than twenty weather apps and eWeather Still comes out on top. Of course, I pay for what I use because it is worth it and I know from experience that serious developers don't work for free any more than user's work for free. So, I choose to pay up front because I despise intrusive advertising. One way or another developers deserve to be paid for their efforts. This really is a professional piece of software. I truly hope the developers continue to support this application because it really is the best I have found, and I have tried and paid for so many! Since I don't live in earthquake counry any more the quake info is less important but eWeather still beats the competition! I was using Dark Sky along with eWeather but since Apple bought Dark Sky it has gone down way hill... I have given Apple Weather an extensive evaluation but Apple has has successfully degraded a good weather app and put their name on it. Too bad, Dark Sky was a nice app.

EWeather HD

I Once Had This Installed On An Android&Loved It(Now Have IPhone&Now Have Installed This Again Based On All The Info&Interface&The Whole Setup To eWeatherHD(I Have To Say This Is An Awesome&Very Accurate On Weather)I Only Have Two Requests That Will Help This Already Great App(ALLOW Lightning Detection)And You Dont Need Subscripts Either(And Please Add Another Couple Wallpaper Designs Like Seasonal~Winter, Spring, Summer&Fall$Add One For ChRiStMaS.(It Would Make This So Beautiful)Need A Little Extra Choice)I Recommend This To Anyone That’s A Weather Buff Like Me (It’s Really Loaded with Most Everything)However It’s Important That Lightning detection Be Adde(Almost All Weather Apps Have That Based On Lives Saved By That Feature Alone(Channel 4Columbus Ohio Has An Excellent Lightning Detection And Alerts To That And You Don’t Pay For High price Subscriptions Nor Do They Charge Extra(They R A Good Example On Their Lightning layout)Again Highly RECOMMEND This Weather APP👍👍👍👍

Superb weather app!

Great app offering more info than any others I have seen. Gorgeous graphics that are very logically laid out. The only feature I have yet to test out is the animated radar, a must-have feature for me. If that works as described this is by far an app worth every cent of it's purchase price. Well done! 4/6/12 update--with the latest update eWeatherHD just gets better and remains the best I've seen. If you enjoy or need great detail about weather in multiple locales eWeatherHD is simply outstanding. eWeatherHD also makes exquisite use of the iPhone's Retina display with truly gorgeous display screens. A+ effort!! 9/4/12 update: Everything above from previous app updates still applies in spades. Radar display even better now and the whole app makes superb use of Retina displays. One of my must-have apps I use many times every day for either home weather, or for friends & family across the U.S. or around the world.

Updated rating and review

I’ve come back to eWeatherHD after living with some others for quite awhile. I had faulted a previous version for not providing (or so I thought) information on the amount of precipitation expected. But one of the two selectable weather providers does (at least now) provide that information, which is very helpful, especially in an hourly forecast. eWeatherHD has some great features that most other apps don’t, like the real time temperature in eWeatherHD ’s icon. And the customization possible in the radar/map display goes beyond Weather Underground’s Storm in many ways. I wish it could display weather fronts, and I wish eWeatherHD gave access to the National Weather Service’s forecaster discussion, but even without those eWeatherHD is probably the best there is for weather nerds. New users should seek out the online manual on the designer’s website here. There’s a lot of power here that is easy once you find it, but not immediately apparent.

A powerful weather app!

The large amount of weather data eWeatherHD offers is not apparent at first. The view showing the multi-day forecast packs more data than is obvious at first glance, as the "now" view shows different data from the forecast view, including barometric pressure history/forecast for 48hrs (24h prior/24h future). There is also a very nice radar component that is not obvious, and eWeatherHD offers an abundance of alerts. On the other hand, I find the weather clock — the most touted aspect of eWeatherHD — to be the least user-friendly. Although it does contain quite a bit of hourly data, it can only display one aspect of the hourly forecast at a time (e.g. temp OR prob of precip, but not both). Hopefully, the user interface for hourly forecasts will be improved in the future, and I also would like to see the hourly forecast go out further than 24 hrs. Nevertheless, there is a wealth of weather data available if you're willing to look for it!

Fantastic Weather App!

Buy eWeatherHD! You won’t regret it. I wrote the following review 7 or 8 years ago and it still stands. I use eWeatherHD each and every time I want to check the weather, about 5-10 times per week these days. The improvements to the graphics over the years have been excellent, but the addition of radar is my favorite! It follows thunderstorms and hurricanes almost in real time! Enjoy!

I love eWeatherHD! I use it 10-30 times daily to check forecasts, temp & barometric pressure in my relatives' areas and in my own. I am disabled and significantly affected by the barometric pressure. I also recently moved across the country, so it's very helpful for me to keep track of the weather & pressure back home & in my new climate. I have recommended eWeatherHD to many people & will continue to do so. It is the best weather app I've found & I've tried many. In fact, I stopped looking once I found this one because it has all of the info I want in one place & is very accurate. Take my word for it, this is the one you want!

Best Weather App On The Market

This Weather App is the best one out there bar none!!! I've think I've about tried them all. Almost all the NOAA apps including the ones you pay for doesn't even come close to eWeatherHD. WeatherHD doesn't it all. The screen quality is beyond compare. The information you get is dead on and can be trusted. This is eWeatherHD we've all waited for all these years. I've been using it for a few years now and it has never failed me yet! They don't forget about it either - they are constantly trying to make improvements on what is to me an already a perfect weather app. You get updates when they have added something new or made an improvement on something. You cant go wrong with eWeatherHD. It is so awesome!!!!
