Always wrong!
November 12, 2024

Never accurate about Nicaragua, always inaccurate! Never had a day when it was correct! It's a tropical country so always says humid and showers, totally wrong!

According to Accuweather, a thunderstorm that has been over my property is supposed to be several miles away. Yet, it's still overhead, with lightning flashing everywhere. This is a frequent problem with their website. There have even been occasions when their map shows no storm activity within 100 miles, while a large thunderstorm is on top of our area. But don't take my word for it. Check it out for yourself. Trust them at your own peril. So much for claimed accuracy. Shame!

Inaccurate weather
December 19, 2022

They should rename themselves inaccurate weather. Rarely accurate. They have showed it snowing here for the past 4 hours and not a flake has fallen. Days they give no snow at all we get more than days they give an amount. Only job you can be wrong all the time and still have one.

Sh*tty app run by a sh*tty human being. Lifetime Premium account purchased years ago no longer works, premium features are blocked behind a new 'pay wall' that I would have to purchase, or 're-purchase'. Apparently the Accuweather CEO/Owner needs to look up the definition of 'lifetime'.

There are better app options, virtually any one of them would be better than this.

Good luck Accuweather, good luck at life!

Inaccuweather
July 18, 2023

I am sitting here on a clear day without any rain. The radar for Accuweather indicates that no only is it raining, but there is a severe thunderstorm going on. Nope. Not happening.

This is typical for InAccuweather. I know forecasting is hardly an exact science, but even their radar is wrong.

Aggressive ads
March 22, 2023

I've relied on AccuWeather for many years, and find them to be mostly accurate.
But I've now uninstalled the app due to the aggressive ads.
They used to have small ads at the bottom of the screen, but now you are not allowed to see all of your forecast without being forced to go to their ad to upgrade.
I'm done with the

Deserves 0 stars
December 5, 2022

I have always used accuweather and now I can honestly say I WILL NEVER USE IT AGAIN! Accuweather deserves 0 stars. Why so many ads? You can't even see the weather. People, don't waste your time. Accuweather is garbage.

I just uninstalled this app. What an Enterprise?They just block the daily view with their ad to upgrade to premium version. You cannot see anything forecast after 7pm. We should all abandon their free app. There are a lot of other free weather app out there to choose from.

Garbage forecasting
July 14, 2023

My grass is dying because of the inaccuracy of this service. I spent 3 years intensely laboring to dig up and redo my entire yard and invest in growing all new grass. However, I do my best to conserve water due to cost and rely on rain when I can. Started using accuweather this year and they are nearly always wrong. For example, at 8am they'd provide an 80% chance of rain during the afternoon, so I wouldn't turn on the sprinklers in the morning. By noon, when I check the radar, there's no rain in the area, there's blazing hot sun, and the chance of rain is down to 10%. This happens almost every time there's a supposed chance of rain for my specific area. My grass has dried out in the summer sun and I now have to spend more money to fix my yard again. I'd love to type a few curse words, but then my review won't get posted. But that's how I feel about "accu"weather.

Paid for a lifetime premium subscription awhile back. Now with their new "premium+" subscription, they have actually TAKEN AWAY benefits of the lifetime premium I bought. Now there are more adds despite my premium, can't view hourly forecast beyond a few hours, and more. This is very unethical. I would say it's fraudulent but we live in America where there is no such thing as fraud, just profits. Good work guys, you're going to see everyone leave.
I just started using Apple Weather built-in app on my iphone instead. It has a low rating because it used to be not great, but it's much better now. No ads, great hourly forecast, and very fast.
DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY ON ACCUWEATHER, they are bunch of creepy fraudsters. There are other apps that are completely free and much, much better. Accuweather should be ashamed.
