Foreca Weather & Radar

Valerie Coupland

Living in Australia I was sceptical about how well this app, developed on the other side of the world, would work. I'm very impressed. So many views and settings to personalise what you want to know. This was very confusing at first and I still have to check what's what. As a traveller, as well as having friends and relatives worldwide, I can get access to weather info anywhere very easily. It's now my go to app for weather info.

Awesome so far. I liked the previous version of wunderground. They did a major update (which was terrible), so I went through a number of weather apps. I needed one with the right layout and color scheme. Lots of others just didn't use the space well. This is the app for me. Love it and wouldn't change a thing.

Cannot exit ads without exiting app entirely. I try to look at weather report, I get a full screen advertisement, but then cannot use my back button to exit. I must fully close the app and reopen to view details. Used to love using this app, but un-exitable ads is super scummy so I'm uninstalling. If using simple banner ads (or allow my back button to work) I'd keep using the app.

Hey Devs! The Google Maps API is FREE!!! The app is great in every way EXCEPT the map. Currently, the map is set to some sort of circa 2005 stationary Garmin-esque format - no pinch-to-zoom, no free scrolling, not even the ability to watch the weather pattern on an endless loop. Correct these issues and this app sets the standard for what a weather app should be.

In the wake of DarkSky selling out I've been in search of a new weather app. I've been very impressed with Foreca so far. It has all the pertinent info without needing to dig for it, plus a radar which a lot of the nicer designed apps lack. A darker dark theme would be nice. I'd like to give it 5 stars, but it's the only app I've tried that lacks an ad-free option. Won't you please shut up and take my money??

Good, clean, simple weather app. Same accuracy as Microsoft weather, as MS uses Foreca's data. The app works well, easy to use, and is responsive. Ads exist but are not intrusive. Various settings exist to display info, such as F or C for temps. What more do you want from a weather app?

Update: After more than a year... still no improvement////Not good. Temperature fairly accurate but humidity says 30% when its actually 44%. This makes a big difference in heat index calculation, especially in summer in Texas. Would not want to rely on this if I had outside employees to worry about. Removed.

Current weather notification (temp) text in the status bar is black while all other text and icons in status bar (clock, battery, signal, etc) are white. My phone is a stock/unmodified Samsung Galaxy S8. I use the stock/unmodified/default launcher. Emailed dev's and response was that this is a device specific problem. Tried wiping cache, then tried uninstalling and reinstalling after wiping device's cache partition. No change in app behavior.

One of the most reliable and accurate weather apps that we have come across and our n°1 go-to. Have used it consistently in various European countries from France, UK and Scandinavian countries through to Poland, Croatia and Italy - and all the countries in-between). Not always spot on, but certainly VERY often correct. Quick and easy to use, customise and read the numerous data and forecasts, which are shown in various 'tabs'. Recent/favourite destinations saved. Very few pop-up ads. Recommend.

I think foreca is by far one of the most accurate weather apps out there! UI is nice and simple to use. Very reliable forecasts and if you encounter an issue, the customer service is really helpful. However I would say it is sometimes (mostly when looking at the weather map) very laggy. If I could I would give it 4.5 stars!
