Comments on WeatherBug: Weather Forecast for Android
★★★★★Ed Harrich· Apr 17, 2026
Very pleased, I've been using this app for years. The daily and ten day reports are very accurate.
★★★★★breck Rumley· Apr 17, 2026
I've been using Weather bug for well over a decade. Just as accurate as any other app, I like the feel, wallpapers, and easy to see tools in the app. Good analytics, and their radar is usually pretty time-accurate.
★★★★★Mason McCall· Apr 18, 2026
I've been using this app for almost two decades and if it wasn't me using it it was my mother who was a truck driver, she didn't even trust our local news channels because of how accurate the weather on this app is. you should give this app a try because Weather Bug is 10 times better than other apps without extremely invasive advertisements. Granted I don't buy the genuinely cheap ad free cost it because the ads are genuinely that non-invasive! Bug will always have my trust! And I thank you all!
★☆☆☆☆Niki Prysock· May 21, 2026
I installed it to get the allergic report, and it doesn't include a major allergic: mold. This is a fail for me, I can get the other allergies from a number of places. I suggest adding another panel for it or include it in the overall allergic pane.l
★☆☆☆☆Madison Walker· Apr 17, 2026
Radar map is so, so glitchy. Can't zoom or move around at all without the whole app freezing.
★★☆☆☆Brian Magurn· May 20, 2026
Radar doesn't refresh well. there's no layer showing where gov issued alerts are located. 7 pieces of junk are in the alerts. Poorly designed, doesn't provide important info separate from random clutter.
★☆☆☆☆BJ W· Apr 8, 2026
App suddenly will not load, although I've paid for a subscription. Now trying to figure out how to stop subscription. App will not even let me sign in. I've cleared, restarted, deleted, updated all to no avail.
★☆☆☆☆Greg Kass· Apr 9, 2026
I need an app with a radar widget. Why are all weather apps making it so hard to get to the radar?
