Really great app and live view

Camera was easy to setup and it grabbed the wireless signal right away. Solar panel works great. Time lapse is fun and I continually search for locations where family and friends live. I am loving it.

So fun

This is a super fun app to see weather across the country! I love checking in on my favorite locations!

Interesting way to see whats going on

Interesting way to see whats going on in your favorite places weather wise and easy to use.

Bloomriffic!

I love this Bloomsky app- I downloaded it months before I ordered my very own. I am fascinated by this product! Great job Bloomsky, keep it up!

Good start/ but need options

This is a good start the view is good, temp is great. Need a way to add sensors, wind speed, direction, is pressure rising or falling or steady? Rain fall accumulation? I dont see any additional ports or option for expanding the system in the future. The app is ok its not cool that everyone has to signup to view my station or camera as Ive found most just dont. While this is cool I will primarily rely on my Davis gear for really weather tracking. Hopefully this is just the beginning because I like where this is headed.

I dont sign up to try apps

Why would I sign up just to try it and see if I like it. Bogus.

Ridiculous

honestly its terrible I got this app to see my areas weather and you dont even have one so why bother have this app

Awesome!

Great app. that allows you to find many local weather stations. Great way to see what the "live" weather is and what the days weather was via time-lapse...

Time lapse

Wish it didnt cut off before and after sunset...

Very cool but could be even better

I was very fortunate to be selected for the BloomSky network expansion promotion so I got my unit for the cost of shipping, but I would have paid full price in any case. The unit itself is beautifully designed, solid construction, and works flawlessly. Setup was quick and simple. Took less than 5 minutes to get connected to my home network and immediately started recording weather data and photos. The app itself is clean and simple. Being able to quickly view the current weather stats and sky view from my iPhone is very cool, and the end-of-day timeless of the sky from my home is now something I look forward to every evening. Id give it five stars except for an obvious omission which Im hoping they add in a future version - it doesnt display any graphs of the weather data its collecting, making it far less useful than it otherwise could be. That was something so obvious I just assumed they would be there, so their absence was a real disappointment. I can view the last recorded sample of temp, pressure, etc. but unless I remember what they were the last time I checked I dont know which way theyre changing and by how much. BloomSky is obviously collecting all this data so it would be a simple matter of adding a few graphs the the app to display it to the user. Still, its a great start of what I hope will be a continuing evolution in personal weather data collection and dissemination. Kudos to the BloomSky team for creating such a cool product and service!

iPad app

Love this app and the ability to connect with the weather station hardware. Now its time to launch and tablet app, especially one thats tailored for the iPad pro.

Its not just weather

This app is fun and educational too. I enjoy seeing how the weather and sky look all over the world and my own back yard! Join the BloomSky social network

Not intuitive

Where are the real time videos advertised. Does not work.

Where do I find the notifications/messages?

If I dont see the notification/message once its sent, I cant find it after that.

Mixed Results

Having a personal weather station is fun - and getting a time lapse movie of the day is a nice bonus. This app needs some more polishing, as does the hardware. When it works, its good. When it doesnt... Ive had a hardware issue and trying to address it through this app is a bit of a pain.

Nifty way to view the weather, consistently improved.

Really fun to be able to search and view weather stations with built in webcams. Their app is consistently updated with new features and bug fixes and the developers actually listen to feedback. I hope theyll expand (maybe a search filter) to also show weather stations outside of their network which also have webcams.

Slow and boring.

Someone told me this app was cool, its not. Super boring to see fisheye time lapse videos of yesterdays weather. Dont bother.

Very cool app but need UI tweaks

My dad got one of these for the house yesterday and it is very cool! I think this is a very interesting approach to monitoring the weather. This app is pretty nice but could definitely use some tweaking in the UI. Also an API would be really nice to have so we can hook it into our businesses website and app.

Fabulous idea

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

Uninstalled right away

You do not need my Facebook or any personal information to just show me the weather. Come on, guys. You have a decent idea here but your info greediness destroyed it.
