Team review

" Clear and accurate forecasts ! "

The application has not yet detailed description, however the team assigned the note of 8 / 10. This note is based on the following criteria: Quality, Usefulness, Ease of Use, Privacy Concerns of user data (depending on the permissions required)..

The app is compatible with most Android devices running on.

Its weight is very light, less than a megabyte is sufficient to store and operate.

Its number of downloads in the Android Market (Google Play) is quite low. The application is either new, or limited to a specific area that only a few users are interested in.

Neutral review Not good by anonym
Optimus Q. Too much space used for too little info. Uninstalling now. 3/5
Neutral review Decent app, except causes busy CPU usage by anonym
I have used this app for quite a while, and was happy with it until recently, when my battery started draining very fast (~1 day or so). I went through a lot of digging and finally installed "Android System Info" by ElectricSheep that I saw the culprit: the Palmary Weather app was continuing to run, chewing CPU cycles, even when I had exited the app correctly. I tried restarting the phone, etc. but the app kept running ~20-30% CPU while watching the task. So for now I have uninstalled the app and my system is back to idling correctly, and hopefully my battery will start behaving properly again. I also use ROMToolboxPro and use the CPU profiles for On & Off, fwiw. Decent app but cannot deal with the battery drain. 3/5
Positive review Best weather app by anonym
I've tried over 10 weather apps - this is the only one I found with a good taskbar notification, good forecasting, and that manages data refreshing well. 5/5
Negative review Not accurate by anonym
I've been running this against WeatherBug, Weather +, AccuWeather, TWC and Weather App since I need something very accurate. None of the apps have been particularly good for me, but Palmary has been the worst by far. We've had a heatwave here for the last few days with dry conditions & temps around 102. Palmary has been reporting low 90's and rain. Really wanted to like & keep this but I'll be uninstalling. 1/5
Positive review Brilliant! by anonym
This app is undisputedly the best weather app I've used. Fantastic graphics and amazingly accurate forecast. Great job guys!! 5/5
Neutral review Good by anonym
I like that it offers a 10 day forecast as well as an hourly forecast & the widget doesn't have any unnecessary bloat like calendars & clocks. Unfortunately, the widget doesn't update unless you update the app itself. And the only time that happens is when I have internet connection. So if I don't connect to the internet, the widget will still show that it's night when it's already morning (and vice versa). I don't understand why it won't update the widget when it has 24 hours worth of forecast every time it updates. What's worse is, even though I connect to the internet via wifi every now and then, it doesn't update. I have two widgets on my screen, this and Fancy widgets. Fancy widgets already updated twice, and shows the icon for the day, but Palmary still shows the icon and condition for last night. So, I'm uninstalling this for now. What a waste, I like the information presented by Palmary so much more than Fancy Widgets, but if usability is sacrificed, what's the point? 3/5
Neutral review Locations? by anonym
Great GUI and fast. Foreca Ltd doesn't offer as many locations as the others...3 stars for now. 3/5
Positive review Best weather widget by anonym

Positive review by anonym
Excellent! Accurate, efficient, reliable, impressive design & features. Do defitely recomend it. 5/5
Negative review Great UI... Bad info by anonym
Great looking app. Terrible source for accurate weather. Currently off by 7 degrees where I'm from = Uninstall 2/5
Negative review No radar? Not very useful by anonym
This app has no radar map available, making it pointless for me. I drive for a living and the most important feature in any weather app to me is being able to see what precipitation. Would be one star but the charts ARE kinda neat. 2/5
Positive review Forecast Chart data point customisation option. by anonym
Just one small request and it would be my perfect weather app. Could you please add functionality to allow users to view more than one data point on the forecast chart. Perhaps an additional screen to customise the desired data points a user wants to display on the forecast chart? For example: temperature and probability of precipitation, or temperature and humidity, or temperature and probability of precipitation and humidity, etc. This would be really helpful in giving an overall view of what the day will be like and when to best plan activities. Love what you guys did with the app. Keep up the good work! 4/5
Positive review Best. by anonym
By far. Beautiful widgets, customizable transparency. 24 hour and 10 day forecasts. Clean and accurate. Beats Go Weather, 1weather, all the rest. Thanks dev. 5/5
Positive review Best weather widget by anonym
I have tried lots of other widgets, all are either ugly or buggy, this one is perfect. Thanks! 5/5
Negative review Bad service by anonym
The icons on the widget from the free version are much higher quality and better looking. I've sent numerous emails to the developer with no replies. Do not purchase this app. The free one is much better 1/5
Neutral review Simon - Galaxy Note by anonym
Agree with many here, its a great app. But what's the most important thing for a weather app? Accuracy right? Most of the time, the current temperatures are out. Also, many Asian cities missing when some small towns are there. Developer, you are not resposible for these. Foreca is to be blamed. Get the data from other source and you are well on the way to beat the big boys. 3/5
Positive review Good app by anonym
I agree not perfect but better than most for a freebie! Would like to have wind speed availability on widget. 4/5
Positive review Few Glitches by anonym
Love the overall app...have the widget on my home screen & the layout is easily seen. The downside is when the widget is opened to reveal more info...the bottom shows several future day forecasts w/the dates above the graphics. It's that part that's obscured by the detailed forecast above. Also, the time that shows is wrong & there's no way to correct it in the settings. These few things are more of annoyances. Other than that it's a beautiful, well developed app. 4/5
Negative review Their source of weather info is very bad...switch! by anonym
What's wrong with the forecast update? It's three(3) hours old! The interface and icons look fine but the when you update the conditions, the time last checked shows 3 hours ago and it was still showing a moon and wrong temperature at mid morning. 1/5
Negative review Suddenly stopped updating by anonym
Is it really that difficult to maintain a working weather app? Also, tried the paid version and it's so out dated it is unable to accurately locate the capital of Texas. 1/5
