  1. 5/5Fantastic!

    I was hesitant to download Weathercaster, as looking at the screenshots made me think it would be a little confusing with the way it presents data and the charts it utilizes to do so. I was wrong! In reality, the charts, and everything else, are very easy to read and use. Plus, the app looks amazing on both iOS and macOS—I don’t have an iPad, but it most likely looks equally amazing on it. But how accurate are the weather reports it generates? That’s most important. Weathercaster uses Apple’s WeatherKit API to draw its data from. However, I get much more accurate predictions from it than from Apple’s weather app and others I’ve been testing alongside it that use the same API. In resuming, Weathercaster is a great weather app with a beautiful user interface and charts that are easy to read and a joy to use. Highly recommended.

  2. 5/5Elegant minimalism indeed

    In a crowded field, it’s natural to wonder what another weather app could possibly offer. Well, it turns out quite a bit. While some offer eye candy but are light on actual content, and others overwhelm you with a tsunami of data, Weathercaster strikes the perfect balance. I love being able to see forecasts for all the places I care about, all in one screen without requiring any interaction. And that, if I want more detail, I can delve in and get hourly metrics on everything, including wind direction. This is a brand new app, and I’m sure it’ll only getter better over time. I’m looking forward to seeing it evolve. Given the choices the designers made in v1, I think it’s headed in the right direction.

  4. 5/5Must Have Weather App

    This is by far the most accurate and worthwhile weather app. I never really realized how much I talk about the weather, both professionally and personally, but ever since I got this app I’m now the go-to weather guy. This app beats out all the other ones I’ve tried and is absolutely worth the subscription. Do yourself a favor: download and subscribe to this app and never get caught off guard by the weather again. I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

  5. 5/5Excellent data, clean interface

    I travel a lot and I need accurate weather information for all the places I frequent. The default weather app that comes with iOS not only is inaccurate, it lacks crucial information. This app was made with passion by people that truly understand weather and it can present to you very detailed and accurate weather in a very clean and easy to understand visual presentation. Very polished and excellent. Love the app!
