Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 80 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. People frequently mentioned that recent software updates introduced an intrusive advertising system, tiny unreadable fonts, and confusing layouts that made standard mobile navigation extremely difficult. Consumers also complained that excessive advertisements frequently block essential weather information, disrupt daily usage, and drastically slow down overall application performance. Some reviewers were happy with past versions, noting that earlier editions were exceptionally user-friendly and provided reliable meteorological details. However, many customers expressed deep frustration over sudden subscription pushes, unexpected billing issues, and intrusive mandatory video ads appearing unexpectedly before checking daily forecasts.

The currenr version 21 is absolutely the worst designed screen I have ever seen. Besides being inaccurate, the layout is totally unreadable. I went back to version 20 or drop accuweathet altogether. W... See more

The August 2025 update is so bad I had to leave a negative review on the Apple Store and here as well. The UI design decisions put priority on loading Ads and hiding functionality (if the app loads a... See more

Who do you have doing your forecasts? A snail could do a better job. The forcast is incorrect 90% of the time. Off by several degrees. Rain not coming or off by several hours of your forecast.... See more

Stop pushing subscriptions and hiding behind pay walls. You have to be idiots to want weather forecasts 10+ days in advance when most of the weather models max out at about 7 days and beyond that you'... See more

Horrible forecast

Horrible forecast! Flood watch?? It didn't rain at all the majority of the time and when it did it was basic. There is something seriously wrong at Accueather.

INACCURATE WEATHER APP

I started paying for ACCUVIEW when I bought an RV~ I thought I would love the “hourly” rain & temperature feature but their forecasted temperature & precipitation (rain) schedule is 100% inaccurate ~Maybe it’s not a big deal for a lot of people but it affects the decisions we make w/ animals and travel times etc. The App is 24/7 consistently wrong by forecasting the temperature 7-10* warmer

It's weather so it is unpredictable and constantly changing. The wind calculation was never correct. However, not being able to find the GULF OF MEXICO anymore is unacceptable to me. You caved and it's sickening. I received the email about YOUR standards. Looks like you don't have any. Anyway....un-installed.

NEVER accurate

Consistantly, and I mean 100%, inaccurate. 5" of snow is a quarter inch dusting. Rainfall always off by a mile. Tonight as per accuweather app has Westfield NJ getting 2.8" snow- I will predict a light dusting, maybe half an inch. People depend on this info for travel, commuting and for their safety- accuweather is totoal crap. Sadly, network tv hypes non-event "storms" to scare viewers not to change the station - total clickbait and should also be shamed.

Accuweather Extremely Unreliable

I have used Accuweather for several years. My wife always uses Weather Channel app. I'm done with Accuweather. Literally over last 12 days Accuweather has missed their prediction of the weather badly - the complete opposite of what happened that day I believe 10 out of the last 12 days. Whereas Weather Channel during that same day has been spot on 9 of the 12 days. Comparing the overview each day and then comparing the Forecast by the Hour between the 2 apps. Not sure what happened but Accuweather is NOT even close to accurate and it's like they are just throwing stuff out there.

Terrible weather forecast

Terrible weather forecast! So not accurate! Drive me crazy and I was stubborn to keep that app but finally I decided to look for other, more accurate weather forecasts.

Consistently off the mark!

Consistently around 8+ degrees off even for the next day, and I am in a fairly easy weather pattern area. The Weather Underground is 70-80 percent more accurate than these clowns. There is no doubt local officials are NOT using this company to plan their day.

They change the rules in the middle of the game!

I had paid for the Premium subscription last year and had full access to the app on my iPhone and iPad. On Jan. 1st, it automatically renewed. I notice that I couldn't access some of the pages on my iPad. An icon on the page said to go to Premium+. That was for an additional fee and I decided to contact Customer Service. Stephanie said to check my Apple ID password on both devices or contact Apple. I even changed my password on both and still it didn't make a difference. Today, my iPhone is doing the same thing that was happening on the iPad. Now I'm pissed. And guess what--the subscription is for the full year with no money back. I can cancel the subscription and still use the app for the rest of the year but that still won't get me access to what I had last year. DON'T bother upgrading because next year they'll probably change the rules again.

Temp info for my area is constantly incorrect. Min of 5C out on a regular basis. As I am always checking weather info from Environment Canada, The Weather Network, Accuweather and my own thermoter I find Accuweather to low on a regular basis. I would like to know where Accuweather gets its info for Halls Lake, (Algonquin Highlands) Ontario

Accuweather worths nothing..

Accuweather worths nothing... It's totally useless and only some times says its raining outside, something that you can see from your closed window... The accuracy of "accu"weather is 99,8 wrong... So get another bad review
