BloomSky Weather App Reviews

I have saw, the YouTube video on how to connect Bloomsky to your device and still cannot seem to connect Bloomsky to IPhone6

Seems like a good idea. Except the nearest city is an 8 hour drive away. Update locations and maybe I would consider going back

Its a decent app with a great product the only problem is it seems to automatically log you out if their server is running slowly and it times out. Clicking favorite shows getting latest weather weights a little while then automatically logs you out this is becoming a big pain. It would also be great to introduce today screen widget to get the current temperature without launching the Apple

The app its not bad, but since bloomsky its sold as a weather station that ALSO makes timelapses, I expected that the "weather part" would have been much more developed. No animations for weather forecast, no uv index or the probability of rain, just 5 hours forecast for the day you are, no wind information, and no pressure information. So, I think this are the improvements the app MUST make.

Awesome app local weather and from around the world come follow me

Im very pleased with my BloomSky station, however I find that the app is very basic. I understand that the emphasis of BloomSky is on the great time-lapse photos the station is able to capture, however I think most people who buy a weather station are equally excited about the weather details as they are capturing the great images of it. Essentially, I wish the app had more options for exploring the weather measurements that the station is capable of obtaining. Things to consider would be graphical data for past measurements. Ideally these could all be over-layed on the same graph (see WeatherUndergrounds interface). Possibly a forecast graph could be included as well. Sunrise and sunset times for the stations location would be a neat aspect to include too. Overall I am very pleased with the product and the app. I just think adding a bit more weather details to the app would be neat.

Granted theres no hardware required to use this app. I find having my own weather station thats reporting to weather underground to be very cool. Its easy to setup and so far has been reliable. I would like the time lapses to have a few more frames to add a little more motion to the day, especially for win detection. If there was a way to add a rain gauge as well as a wind speed and direction indicator then this would be near perfect. The little water sensor pad today takes quite a while to dry out after being wet. Unless its dried out its not going to generate a second alert.

Im a weatherbug and this app is really cool. It will be fun to add a weather unit and utilize all the features!

Great for pilots who are tired relying on the outdated and slow Flight Service Station method. Its not legal for pilots but it is live. Thank You Thank You

BloomSky is an amazing device for weather buffs. I had a problem with my first one and James from the support group was fantastic in helping solve the problem. He offered to replace it, which he did. After receiving a new BloomSky I was still having a problem getting it to connect to my wi-fi. Made a phone call and James helped again. I have a Verizon Fios router that handles both 2.4 and 5 MHz. He helped to connect it and now works fine. Highly recommend this device.

I got one of the bloomsky weather stations for my birthday. Barely any instructions in the box-- just says to download the app, tell it to add the device, and follow the instructions on screen. The instructions tell you to put your wifi password into the app and it should find the device and connect everything up. This never worked for me, despite multiple hard resets and confirming that my home network was configured properly, etc. There are no configuration settings visible on the device itself or in the app, so its very difficult to determine why it didnt work Apparently, this failure to connect is quite common, because the app connected me to a page on their website that described different failures and presented a form to fill out, saying that technical support would contact me within 24-48 hours and resolve the problem. I never heard from them despite several attempts to contact them. I returned my unit and recommend that others avoid this device and app.

I have tried for weeks to get this to work properly. Ive looked online for solutions and have had some success. The phone # on the help page reports as "Non-Existent." After about an hour I give up. It worked for one whole day, once.

I love the new design but I dont like the temperature graph overlapping the bottom of the camera view.

Bring back the old version, where we can see the entire live view. The new favorites page is not as good as the old one. The new update is not good. The old version would be a 5 star rating.

I like the looks of the new app, but Im very surprised that it STILL is an iPhone only app. It looks anemic on an iPad, let alone an iPad Pro.

I like the update. It looks fresh and clean. The only thing I dont like is the temperature graph over the bottom of the image. The reason most of us bought the Bloomsky is because of the live weather image. Please dont ruin it by adding graphic elements over it. But please keep up the great work. It is a great product that I love. Thank you.

Love the new 3.0 and hear more improvements are on its way in upcoming updates. Cant wait!

Originally three stars because the temperature blocked part of the picture taken by the weather cam. Updated app fixed that-which means this company LISTENS to its customers & takes care of problems. Keep the momentum going, Bloomsky!

I got the app and am thinking about getting the device. I was hoping it could be a one stop weather app. Would love it to have a radar overlay.

I originally said I didnt like the new app. After using it, my complaints are no longer completely valid. You can easily move the temperature overlay out of the way. Getting to the time lapse video isnt that much of an issue. Id like a unique iPad version, but that isnt much of an issue either. As long as they continue to improve the app, Im good with that.
