BBC Weather - Latest Quality Issues

Jul 23, 2024
Useless, i looked at the weather report for the week commencing Sunday 22nd, it read mostly sunny, temperature up & down a little as we go through the week but looking pretty decent, I opened the app monday morning & it read rain with some days consisting of light showers. I need to be able to plan my work throughout the week & need an app that is accurate, this one tells me nothing, I am now removing it & finding an accurate one.

Cannot remove the "recent" places... Not an improvement.

Used to be great, but feels like an update has resulted in a backwards step. Never gives you your current location. When opened it will show you the last searched for location. And also the last day you looked at. What we used (and expect) to see is the weather right now, in our current location. I can't believe I now prefer other apps, rather than the once trusted BBC.

For some reason the forecasts are always a few degrees higher than other forecasts.

The temperatures they give seems to be fiction. Whist I was in Portugal, several sources of information including other apps said the temperature was well past 30⁰. Meanwhile the BBC app was showing 21⁰. I've since uninstalled it.

Not very relaiable, forecast icons change far to regularly, especially when your trying to plan your work around the weather! App says "no rain the next day" wake up and its raining and the app has now changed to rain, and thats on a forecast less than 12 hours ago!!! Seems BBC Weather cannot even forecast the weather properly for even the next 12 hours!!
