Mercury Weather

gOOD APP

This app looks okay, but it’s just one screen with no interaction, animation or additional functionality. There’s no radar. It’s not worth paying for when there are so many for free that have more features.

Why are you making me pay or some weather app, that dose not allow to view -on- your wrist. Or not even for widgets!!? Just Apple weather guys. Seriously, paying for a dumb weather app.

This app is way overpriced for the limited features it provides. I downloaded it to evaluate for my use but deleted it right away. Radar is essential for me.

A basic copy of Weather Line priced too high. No thanks.

I like the clean layout and line graph display of the forecast. In combination with other favorite weather apps Mercury provides an intuitive display and nice widget options. The trip planning forecast is a nice addition—though it would be helpful if the temp display on the main city list showed high & low for the day so you could understand generally what the day was like to help with planning and packing. When a trip approaches within the week the weather for the travel city is spliced into the forecast. Monthly average temperature graph (premium feature) is very useful. It’s unfortunate that the app lacks radar, but the iOS weather app and many others fill in this gap. I think the design could be improved if some of the elements were made more compact, for example, the search/globe icon in the top right takes up a whole line of vertical space in the top of the app which essentially leaves a blank bar at the top and pushes the forecast at the bottom below the fold (for standard sized iPhones). That blank space at the top could be filled with glyphs and small widgets to give glanceable weather data for the day. I also think the hourly graph should display the day when it crosses over midnight.

Needs overlapping dates for travel planning. Some trips have multiple stops, so it’s ridiculous that each date can only be used for one location. And the feature set overall is very sparse. Doesn’t offer anything beyond the stock weather app

You have to pay money so you can use the app! Why? While apple weather is totally free!

It is a very basic, stable weather map that just shows very elemental weather forecast info but does not include weather maps of any kind. Very expensive for what you get IMOP.

There is no precipitation notifications, live activities, or Dynamic Island support. This is my favorite weather app but I can’t use it alone due to all of those things missing. Please add those features and this will be the best weather app in the App Store!
