    Love the weather station. The app provides all history data needed and more for a residential owner. Integration with Rachio irrigation works excellent providing accurate weather forecasts at my home instead of relying on forecasts miles away. Great addition when integrating with MyRadar. MyRadar app also works with Apple CarPlay and has an available app for Apple TV. It’s nice to see accurate rain and wind results. Love the addition with the local radar map when rain is expected. Would LOVE to see the Tempest Weather app start working with Apple CarPlay and also have an available app for Apple TV. Also, integration with Apple HomeKit, Lutron Caseta Wireless and Honeywell Resideo so smart home items display accurate weather and respond accordingly.

    I had high hopes for this system when I asked for it as a Christmas gift. I have been disappointed with the app and the weather station. The app is not reliable when it comes to location services. It frequently will not display current or saved locations and displays a server connection error. This happens several times a week, even after deleting and reinstalling the app.

    I’m not sure if the developers are still actively updating the app at all. The widgets I use are not updating and while all the functions of the hardware seem to work, the notifications are really delayed. I used to get Lightning notifications pretty quickly but recently, I get 1 or 2 (when there should be 5-6). Other issues are a lack of UI updates. The design is pretty stale. Kind of disappointed.

    App has basically become unusable. Won't load on launch until app is backgrounded. Force quitting makes it not work again. Should be an easy fix but have been waiting for weeks.

  • Glitchy

    The ‘Done’ icon in the upper left hand corner of the screen for my Tempest weather station often doesn’t work. The app is a stuck on my weather station. I have to shut done my device to get the app to reset.

  • Good app and weather station but needs improving for the radar

    It keeps saying invalid location on the map and says refreshing

  • Best weather station for the money

    This is a great system for the money and as they add new features it will get even better. One stop weather station and weather reporting.

  • Widget restored!

    Glad to see the widget restored in the latest version. Also enjoying the radar maps. This is my go-to weather app.

  • App crashes

    App crashes when trying to view battery data etc. The only way to view this data is on the web for my station. So it’s an app issue. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled, also restarted the phone, no luck

  • Complicated install and difficult to share via app

    1) Install with app requires WIFI, tried without, multiple issues. Had to delete station twice before it was reporting well. (I could then wipe the hub wifi configuration by a toothpick in the hole by usb power. Not in any documentation or support ) 2) no phone support. Called when they said the were available, goes straight to auto message - no one available to take your call. 3). Questionable rain data - full sunny day outside, haven’t had rain for a month, it said it rained for 25 minutes. 4) wind and temp look good 5) share data. Per thier website, it says share data in your family via using the same account. Tried, no joy. On my wifes phone, it started to go into setup for a new station…. Seems the hub can only have one bluetooth connection at a time - no joy. 6). Bottom line. Sensor hardware could be great, but its all about the app software and the companies intent for reporting to the web. If your having difficulting setting up, just delete and keep trying. Support did not respond. 7). No idea how to get the app on my watch and actually work… Good Luck.
