This updated app is change for change sake. The old app was clearer with better font and much easier to read. The new updated app is cluttered with information which is hard to pick out. Don't like black background as it comes over as rather cartoonish. Not a good move to present weather like this by such an august enterprise.

Why change something that worked so well? It looks so awful now, especially on phone. All squashed. I’m in the wrong location and can only have where I actually live as a location. How ridiculous. My locations all used to be available on the front page. Now you have to search for them. So much wrong with it. I really hate it.

New app is clunky to use, difficult to read and needs constant scrolling to find information. In addition there is a major problem in showing current location. The Met Office say they are trying to fix it but why wasn't this done before the new app was launched. A complete waste of time.

If it's not broken don't fix it and if you really can't leave it alone don't break it. The new app is less intuitive, less informative, difficult to to use and worst of all hopelessly inaccurate especially for wind s speed and direction. It said 12 mph from the south West, I went outside and it was at least 25 mph from the east.

This new app is a disaster. It is too busy and difficult to navigate. Lost is the ability to have several sites on the front page to compare weather and the surface pressure maps that give the bigger picture of weather to come. Please revert back to the old app until these issues are addressed

New update is poor. Poorly laid out, it is harder to find the information you are looking for. You have to do a lot of extra scrolling to find what you are looking for. The radar never works, it is aways slow and constantly loading. After 11 years of using the app I will be looking elsewhere.

What on earth is going on with the management chain for this broken app to be allowed to replaced a functioning one? Underperforming and, it appears, under tested! Why double down and keep the poor replacement instead of reissuing the old working app whilst the new one is finished and appropriately debugged? Main app accessible but widgets still unavailable. Astonishing!

New app really poor, uninstalled it and moved to weather&radar

I wish zero stars was an option! The new ‘updated’ app is a complete nightmare. The layout is hideous and the app is far far far from user friendly. Also the predicted wind speed is ridiculously inaccurate! I live in what I would describe as a wind tunnel. According to the app the wind speed is currently 10mph. I’m watching recycling bins flying past my window and watching people struggle with car doors…definitely something wrong with the app!! It’s like being lied to and gaslit consistently!! Please sort it out!!

I can only assume the person responsible for the new app is employed by another rival organisation as an industrial spy. Looking at the near universal occurrence of a one star review here and the utter lack of usability and poor design both functional and aesthetic of the site, it leads me to believe someone has an interest in driving users to a rival website. A truly awful update to a previously brilliant useful and essential web page. I have deleted my bookmarks for the two locations I use regularly and replaced them with bookmarks for the old site. When these stop to function, I will find a better app.

The new app is difficult read and my location now is completely wrong and I can’t change it.

Dreadful change to an app that worked perfectly before - I wouldn't give any stars if I could! No settings available to customise according to preferences between Celsius and Fahrenheit, or miles to kilometres. No daily summary of weather for your overall area and no long-range forecasts at all. Bad layout, colour appalling, can't distinguish between sections and have to keep scrolling to bottom to see video forecast. All in all, complete and utter mess - whoever did this should be sacked!

Dreadful new app, cluttered, over-busy and hard to read and navigate. How much did this cost?

So dam depressing. Why change and app that doing the job, where you can read , the new app is unreadable. Don't do another jaguar mistake (making something you think people should like) stick to the original. I go to other sites now, but they aren't as informative.

⁸The proposed new design is awful and dumbed down compared with the old existing one . Why offer change when it is not needed or wanted by your customers? Seems a waste of time and money!The old existing design is excellent and gives a full long term view of weather and is easy to explore and use.
Following on from my earlier comments on 31st Jan I spoke later in February to the Met Office call centre about the reasons for the change of design. It seems to be strongly 'age' orientated ie trying to get a 'younger' audience. OK from about 8 years old then ???

I am inclined to agree with all the other reviews. Too busy, difficult to navigate and just not user friendly. Yes, given time I might get used to it but I am quickly getting tired of using it. Where did the pressure readings go? I'm only keeping the app in the hope that we get some form of explanation as to the direction the app has taken. The only bit worth keeping the app for is the video forecasts.

Awful! Unclear, not easy to navigate or find information. Surely pressure displays, pressure trends and frontal systems are fundamental to a credible weather app - sadly lacking ( or else too hard to find). Weather app on Apple has more enhanced information, clearer displays and more information.

Absolutely awful. Too finicky. Hard to pick out data when everything is grey and black. Almost unusable. The old app was excellent.

The person who thought these changes were a positive step should be sacked.

Worse than previous since ‘ updates’
