Comments on AccuWeather: Weather Radar for Android

★★★★☆ A Google user · Jan 10, 2026

Sunrise and sunset have been restored. I would like to see the link to the live broadcast via the app also restored.

★★★★★ Shannon Hillary · Mar 12, 2026

I love the AccuWeather app. In addition to it being the most accurate to the minute for precipitation in my area it also shows the Air Quality Index. Which is current by the hour and forecasted for 10-day Allergy Outlook with a very clear breakdown and easy to understand details for pollen, ragweed, etc. also shows predictions for which days coming up would be best suited for particular activities. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! 15-day forecast is FREE, up to 45-days forecast is available with upgrade. LOVE

★★★★★ DGS · Mar 13, 2026

Most accurate weather app I have found, love it. I use free version and get all need with that, but imagine the paid service offers a lot more info.

★☆☆☆☆ Kenneth Hulick · Jan 10, 2026

Ads getting much more intrusive. Looking for a different weather app. Update: down to 1 star. Tried the reinstall and reinstalled and got a full screen ad before I even got into the app.

★☆☆☆☆ C A · Nov 12, 2025

Ad covers almost half the screen. It used to let you save an address for a location but not now. Every update makes it worse.

★☆☆☆☆ Jordan Carlson · May 13, 2026

I'm done with this app. It's been down all day, only showing me current temperature. Everything else was replaced with a white banner saying the website was down, but to download the app. I was viewing that on the freaking app lmao. I uninstalled it hoping that would fix it. Nope. Now the app doesn't work at all. It just crashes when I open it. Uninstalled again and I'm done. I'm going to give Weather bug a try. It has to be better than the low bar set by this garbage app.
