Best weather app in the Play Store. Let’s me know precisely when I should expect rain and how much. Feature rich far beyond that which means it may take you a few minutes to figure out the interface and customize to your liking, but it isn't difficult. Take those few minutes, and afterward don't be surprised if you find yourself recommending this app to friends the next time someone mentions the weather. It's really that good.

Superb app with abundant features. Fairly accurate for the Philippines since Foreca taps onto CWA (Taiwan) and JMA (Japan) weather agencies who have better understanding of maritime climate than other global models. However, it's concerning how slow the interface loads, especially in loading menus and the data itself. Needs urgent fixing especially for slow devices and poor connections.

Sorry for the slowness that occurs only in some Android devices or possibly due to some device settings or combinations. The problem is related to our coding platform and we are waiting for the fix from the platform provider. Unfortunately the issue is not in our hands and so it's frustrating also from our perspective.

App said there was <10% chance of rain during a 2 hour long flash flooding event. The radar often fails to load in a way that makes it unclear that this has happened causing it to appear as though the radar is clear when it really isn't.

Sorry that the forecast has been deviated from the actual weather conditions. It would be helpful if you could report the issue to us in more detail. Could you kindly fill this form so that we can look at if there is something we could improve in the future: https://corporate.foreca.com/en/forecast-feedback
