4/5Love pixels! But a few suggestions…
I love the 8-bit vibe of this app. But here are a few suggestions: - main index (scrollable temp, air quality, forecast, etc): allow uses to decide what to display and the order in which they are displayed. For example, I have little need for an air quality or UV index, given where I live. - add a weather icon legend under the gear menu: like, why does a rainbow signify “fair” weather? In winter, no less. - add a way to view dew point, wind gusts, and barometric pressure. In Carrot you just tap the day’s temp and a separate screen opens which allows one to view the above measurements all together (I use their Dark Sky copy for my layout…I miss Dark Sky!). In fact, it would also be nice to also be able to add these separate data points onto the scrollable index. For example, I could choose to first see the temp, swipe to see the dew point, swipe again to see the forecast, etc etc. I’m thinking of trying to figure out how to buy (or build?) a Pixel Weather Station…is there someone who builds them for you? But I do love the look of this thing. Sorta wish I could mod the colors, but no biggie.

4/5cute app! but just a couple of requests...
i love the retro feel to this and the weather is pretty accurate :) it would make it totally better if it had the sunrise and sunset times (like on the default ios weather app) and a dark mode for the widget. this is also just a preference wise thing for me, but it’d be nice if there was an option for an hourly weather status on the widget (take hello weather’s widget setup for example). other than that, the developer really did a nice job with this app! totally recommend it :D

4/5Almost replaces my regular weather app
So much fun to use! Just wish there was a weather map available. Ideally a pixelated one, but that sounds like a big ask. So, I’d be happy with a regular map, just because switching to another app just to see where the rain is seems clunky. I use Weather Underground and Rain Alarm for my map needs currently.

5/5The Weather That Keeps On Giving
I got this weather app because of its cool retro vibe. It looks like the love child of Prodigy and a Nintendo. It dares you not to take it seriously, but then you find it does a great job of telling you the weather. Then add in that it has all sorts of features, information, and hidden gems. What’s not to love? Seriously, I just want to live inside of it.

4/5Love it but...
I literally love pixel style. So bought this with in a second haha. I think the one person mentioned a weather map. Untill now iv used “the weather channel” And that has a map u can watch the radar move in and how the forcast will play out. I think thats wat he means Basically “the weather channel” In this pixel format. Then 100%. Still love this app tho
