★★★★★
Excellent weather watch face. Really looking forward to the marine
functionality. Tide times is what I'm after.
★★★★★
One of my favorite android watch faces, very great snapshot of weather and
forecast for the day. Very impressive use of rings to display forecast-
easy to use
★★★★★
Update: As of July 2020 I am still using this watchface and still absolutely love it. It's getting pretty slim pickings in the Wear OS department, I would consider paying the developer of this to develop the watchface for another OS (Tizen, most likely--iOS is just bad). With the news that Dark Sky Android will be shutting down on August 1, I'm not sure what the developer of this watchface plans. Dark Sky has been a staple of Android Weather must-have apps for years and it's a shame the developers decided to snub millions of Android users for a quick buck. Anyway, after 4 years of using Krona Sunlight, it's still easily my most used, most useful app across my phone and my watch. I love this watchface! Edit: recently updated for wear 2.0. Love the new features, especially the subscription options for more detailed information :D This watchface literally lets me uninstall 3 other apps on my phone. It's amazing.
★★☆☆☆
Hauwei smart watch 2 sport the display is so small that I have would be need telescope to read it worse you pay for the watch face when they want money for features other weather apps give you for nothing this app is nothing but a con uninstalling
★★☆☆☆
New alternate that has been updated recently, search the store for Skyhalo. Unfortunately, app appears to be abandoned. Still takes subscriptions though, and for now, still appears to work, but promised features are not being added
★★☆☆☆
This watchface will no longer work in 2021, as Apple bought up the sole working weather provider for this app, and the API will be shut down. While the other providers are listed as "back in a few weeks", that's already been 3 years. Previous review: Unfortunately weather forecast accuracy has been downgraded by quite a lot. Previously you could be certain about the 24h rain forecast, and the only problem was a permanent 3-5 degree offset. Unfortunately, since 2017 autumn, it's the complete opposite: it missed all the snow during the winter - including multi-day heavy snowings - and spring/summer rain seems to also be beyond the capabilities of the weather service used.
