Software Reviews and Criticism

  USEFUL, AND COULD BE MORE ACCURITE

  Version 3 was worse that version 4 [now on my Mini]. I use The Weather Channel app on my iPad, and am used to that format; this one is different. Even So, I see differences in accuracy between both these apps. The Weather Channel seems more “on point” to my location than this one. It’s a nice graphic in the icon bar, demonstrating the weather. There is a very quick connection to the updated weather data, and in this regard is much improved and better than The Weather Channel app.

  Very Convenient and Reminds me to Pay Attention to the Weather!

  Weather Dock is always there with up-to-date weather forecasts ; it’s hard to forget to check the weather when the little reminder is jumping up and down in the doc to get your attention. It’s done tastefully; not aggravating. So I’m very pleased so far; no complaints! And I also like the cloud, rain, and sunshine, etc. graphics. Fun! It truly is very helpful. I find that often friends will be saying one thing about the weather forecast different than what Weather Doc is saying; however, it always turns out Weather Doc is “right on”! It’s so nice to have this service at my fingertips whether on my laptop or phone. Thanks Weather Dock; Good Job!

  Weather Dock Always at your Fingertip

  I find there are three features of the Weather Dock, which makes it my favorite weather app. First, I appreciate the graphic display of the current weather. I am a visual learner and the picture of the weather is perfect... with one glance I can get a good visual of the current weather. The second feature I like is along with the visual there is a red dot containing the current temp. Again making it very convinent to see your locstions current temperture. Finally I enjoy the ability to find the weater almost anywhere around the world and can get a five day forecast by opening the app for that location. This is great way to check the forecast for a vacation location. Ialways keep the app open on my launchpad.

  if u want top screen icon; this ain’t it!

  I used weatherbug for years and was happy with it. Then Microsoft updated from “Lion” to “High Sierra” making the weatherbug app useless. Downloaded this app but the icon goes DOWN in the “tool bar” and not up at the top of the screen where I wanted it! If your tool bar is “hidden” you have to scroll down on the cente pad (one motion), scroll right til you find the app (2nd motion), click on it (3rd motion), then it opens up a window in the MIDDLE of what ever “page” you’re on. Fine, all that to see the weather? WAIT! we’re not done yet: when you click on the red button (upper left corner) to close the app, it then ….wait for it….DISAPPEARS! As in, completely! Sometimes it goes back to the tool bar; sometimes it goes away completely! Really? Why can’t you just have an icon at the TOP of your screen that actually shows the outside temp at your location? Is that a LOT to ask??

  Love Weather Dock

  I have Weather Dock on my Windows laptop and love it. It’s convenient and is usually correct in the weather prediction. I do have a problem reading the red numbers as they seem to blend into the gray. I also wanted to have it on my Windows desktop, but it wouldn’t accept it, but did notice a Review telling how to install the Pro version, so I will try that. Great app. Thanks Starting August 2021, I bought a Windows Mini and was able to also install a Weather Dock on it. Now I'm a happy camper with it on both computers. Still love it. Thanks.
