I paid $3.99 to purchase this APP because of all the positive reviews. I now realize they are probably written by the Carrot Marketing family. The weather report has been correct once in the week I had it....telling me that rain was "coming in the next 45 minutes". For $3.99 all I had to do would have been to look at the dark clouds outside. This is the first time I have ever given an APP less than four stars. I am seriously disappointed because it is just over hyped.

The app is funny, no doubt. The insults, poking its "eye," graphics, and unlocking secret locations are part of the enjoyment. However, the actual weather part is usually inaccurate (I live in Columbus, OH). There are often times when the main forecast will state there is rain in the area, however the radar shows nothing in the entire state. There are other times when the graphics will show it's raining but there is sun out. On a few occasions it did predict when rain will start and stop but it is usually wrong, by hours. I contacted technical support several times but the replies tried to be funny by acting like they were the actual app and were a sentient being (referring to itself as "I," as in "The weather I predict..."). I wanted support, not jokes. The issues persist and only seem to be getting worse. Carrot Weather is entertaining at least. If you want funny it's worth it. If you want real weather you can do better.

I used this application on my iPhone 6 Plus and iWatch and loved the features and iWatch complications. However, the more I used it the more I realized the temperature and rain forecast was inaccurate especially upon weather conditions changes. Takes very long to update as weather conditions changed. I had to change back to Accu Weather which has been very accurate through the years I've used it. If accuracy improved I'll try again.

Those that say this isn't that accurate need to understand that algorithms can't predict the weather where you're butt is... Only in the area around you. If there's 30% chance of rain, chances are, the sky over your head is 30% filled with rain clouds. Sailors understand this, but it's easy to count clouds in the middle of an ocean. My watch told me rain was going to start in 9 minutes. Maybe it did downtown, but didn't reach me for another 10. As far as I'm concerned, this is balls on accurate. Every other weather app was telling me it might rain, maybe, sometime, that day. I'd give this a 5 if it included a bit more useful information, such as barometric & humidity.
