Clean Interface   Great app. Ads are terribly distracting and might give the impression there is a severe weather alert ( the latest eyesore of an ad is bright red across the top of the screen ). If the ads were less distracting I'd give it a 5.

Best weather app, period   This is the best weather app, hands down. Judging from the screenshots, I was expecting this app to take a while to load the weather (due to the graphics) compared to other weather apps but I was completley wrong. Updates almost instantly and I love the fact that on the 5-day forecast, you can hit the moon icon and it actually summarizes the weather at night for the 5 days and not just the weather during the day. For people that tend to go out at night, its a plus.The only suggestion I have is to increase the time frame for current weather. Right now we can only see the current weather for the next 5 hours. They should add an option to show next 10 hours or something by pressing an arrow similar how the indices section has arrows to navigate the menus.Overall, best weather app! - AccuWeather review by Seven7
OK but dislike the ads   Good design and interface but I disliked the video advertisements before the local weather videos - something you don't have to sit through in other free weather applications like The Weather Channel. The radar map will not zoom in as much as with TWC. This made me delete this app and keep The Weather Channel. - AccuWeather review by CAQmd
Defiantly better the TWC   Defiantly better than The Weather Channel app. Like how i can finally have animated radar. Looks a lot better and loads a lot faster. Only think i dont like, is i wish there was a 10 day forcast instead of 5. And be able to zoom out on the radar. Change those 2 things and i'll bump up the rating. Still a 4 star for me though. - AccuWeather review by imper069
Ok, but falls short next to TWC   The indicies and such are nice, but I want more weather info - a few hours or a few days aren't enough! The animated radar is a welcome addition, but its quality and scope are severely lacking compared to TWC. Lastly, the adds are highly obtrusive - they take up 2x or more space than any other app. This app was a major disappointment coming from such a reputable quality source like accuweather. - AccuWeather review by CttdFlyer
Awesome weather app!   Finally!!! A weather app that is useful AND looks good. It's not overpriced like my weather but at the same time does everything and more. The indicies section is a nice touch. Also has several videos to choose as opposed to TWC's one forcast. ONLY thing I would change, would be a NEXRAD radar like the other radar app in the app store. But this radar is still up to the job. And it's animted from the start! Good job accuweather! - AccuWeather review by imike12706
Good app but...   I ultimately prefer The Weather Channel app. The UI of this app is classier but I think it provides less useable info than TWC app. If this app provided more detailed daily info and at least a 7 day forecast it would be my only weather app. Until then TWC app is. - AccuWeather review by Pocha1963
Just hangs   It says worldwide. I am in Canada. It asks if it can use my location. I reply yes and the hourglass appears for as long as I leave the app running. I will rerrate it when I can use it. - AccuWeather review by SimchaM
Crashes evertime I try and add another location   I love this app, but I have eight locations, and I was tryng to add about 10 more for all of my family and friends around the world, and it just crashes and brings you back to the Itouch screen. There is some bug in it, or is there a limitation on how many locations you can add?It would be five stars if you could add as many locations you want and to be able to sort them alphabetically.Thanks,Rob Spokane - AccuWeather review by Rob Spokane
Great Data, could use some UI tweaks   Great data, esp. the national weather service notices. It would be nice if it were easier to switch between locations:-allow swiping in the weather screen to go between locations (or if you have to, use the <> buttons at each side) Having to go to the info button to change locations isn't intuitive-rework the locations list: it would be nice to be sortable (the triple bar widget on the right side of the entry) If you made the location swipable (and remembered it), you could ditch the Default position and active location sections altogether...)Making the locations swipable would make this a 5 star app - AccuWeather review by sphns
Why is it so hard to give people what they want?   The app is a nice combination of features found in other apps, but really, is it supposed to be a combination of other apps' features that makes it good? Shouldn't it be this good from the start? Why did it take this long?
I don't know why, but Accuweather decided to limit the radar zoom to just your locale, which makes the radar somewhat pointless at times. Also, while video is nice, I pretty much have all that information already. An emergency weather radio feed would be much nicer. They do exist, I use them all the time.
This is probably the best weather app available right now, but falls short like all the others on some things. - AccuWeather review by MichaelB2
Nearly perfect   Great looking GUI. Loads fast and has plenty of good features. The only thing that would make it better would be animating the weather on the main page, like on the AT&T Fuze (when it's snowing, snow flakes fall in the background, raining, rain falls and a windshield wiper wipes it away, etc..). So it would be cool to see that in an update. But functionally, it's perfect. - AccuWeather review by StoneColdSober
Finally something with a radar   Very nice app
Does the simple things an app should do.
1 use gps to get weather
2 fast updates
3 animated radar - AccuWeather review by goodieroe
Simple interface   I like it better than The Weather Channel for iPhone and it's Free! - AccuWeather review by InspectorFox
Never Runs Stuck in an endless loop of xml problems   Was all excited to get a decent weather app from folks I use all the time. No luck though. It just sits and spins it's wheels looking for xml files that do not exist. Don't download waste of time - wish it worked!! - AccuWeather review by Light-Fun
Adware!   Adware full of advertisements and commercials. Boo! - AccuWeather review by Robojobo
Adware   Charge me -- I'd pay for this app -- or povide it for free. But don't put ads in software. - AccuWeather review by StupendousMan
Keith on Accuweather   1/4/09 - Beautiful interface and decent features. Being that it's a free app I probably would have used it with some enthusiasm, but it continuously crashed on me. I deleted it and reinstalled it numerous times with the same result. My wife had the same issues. At this point it is unusable! We've moved on to Fizz Weather (excellent features and stable. A bit pricy though). - AccuWeather review by LeCreesma
help   i see a lot of good reviews but idk how to activate it. it says i need to agree to the license but idk where to go or where to find it. its like im just waisting my time! - AccuWeather review by tonymr95
