Great app, but I knocked a star off for the poor offline support. If I'm cycling or walking in a remote area without mobile service, even an old forecast is better than no forecast. Yet, if I put my phone in airplane mode and close the app, when I reopen it everything displays "no data," even if it just had forecasts loaded 10 seconds before. There's no reason not to cache forecasts until new forecasts are downloaded, especially since there's already a warning about forecasts being out of date when the phone is without signal.

Proving very reliable and easy to use. I appreciate the predictive weather maps feature. However If the app could include real time weather radar mapping that would be a very useful addition. There is a particularly good real time weather app, which covers all of Western Europe - a similar function in the met office app would be a good additional feature.

For me, this app is perfect. The basics are not overcrowded and adverts are not intrusive. It is easy and simple to access more detailed info and it's just very well designed and smooth experience imo. I tried many weather apps after the one I used to like became annoying. I find most of them irritate me in some way but this one suits me just right. Everyone has their own taste in weather apps. I hope you find one that works smoothly for you
