Pros and cons of Global News SkyTracker Weather app for iPhone and iPad
Global News SkyTracker Weather app good for
Excellent job Global!!! The perfect weather App that works- so far - flawlessly.
Love the new app skin and menu options! Really like that Im able to select multiple locations and also can submit my pics and videos of weather news. Great job!
Best weather app. I like this new version. I do prefer the Calendar type view of daily forecasts but can easily get used to the new flow.
This is a very nice app, very intuitive, all info you could ever need with a bonus of latest news. You complainers cant be serious.
I have just talked to Global News and they are making a new version and is testing it and will be released in the next 3 weeks!
Some bad moments
Hasnt been updated in over a year. Design and layout is outdated.
Worst weather app ever! Its very rarely ever right. And the future forecast is a joke!
Please fix this app. Every time I open it, it just crashes. Every. single. time.
Oh yeah, can you also improve the accuracy of the forecasts? More than 1 day out is waaaay off most days.
I want to support this app, but its become worthless.
Thank you.
Used to love this app. Updated October 2013 kinda says it all. Crashes all the time - still a good app when it works but very disappointed lately. Fix it!!
If you like adds, sure its improved. I actually liked the older version better. I wish I hadnt updated this app at all.
Too small font. Too congested. Previously saw temp, wind, humidity, future precipitation, 10 day synapsis, without leaving the page. Detailed segment, again, too congested & font too small
