SMHI Väder Customer Insights

1. Now I rate it FULL 5-star for all the great functionalities plus being a commercial-free app in the market! Thanks for the development team (including Susanne) with instant support and prompt replies.Would love to see some improvements to the timeline in the "map" view as I always find it confusing.

2. Really hard to get a sense of scale on the timeline.The app seems to have been redesigned in the latest update (end of August 2020) and it now depends on third party software called crosswalk.

3. Please, give the users the choice in the setup: what should be the initial settings with start the app.Widgets don't work at all on my phone.

4. Do better.26/10-2021: Latest update has problem loading widget on Android, otherwise has been a reliable App so far.

5. I would also like to see more settings in the app such as being able to set the 10-day view as the first screen that loads, rain radar map automatically plays instead of static picture.

6. Searching does not work, at all, you can only set position by enabling GPS and setting start page position is also GPS only.

7. UPDATE (27/10 - morning after): I just deleted the app and re-installed it fresh, then the widget started working as beautifully as before.

8. App used to be good but since a year or so it stops loading weather and needs to be constantly restarted to work.

9. However, functionality to change the background transparency and light / dark theme has been removed.

10. In English too please! UPDATE: Devs added widget transparency! Legends!It does what it is supposed to do.

11. Tested on multiple phones so it's not just a single issue.I really liked the new design of the widgets.
