- cryptoz 6y agoAha, I want a lot from weather apps. I am a weather app developer, for what that's worth. I expect a lot because the current state of weather data communication and accuracy is a disaster. There is a lot of work to do to improve forecasts, and when a company steps up to say they will do it, I expect a lot out of them. I also take major issue with the claim that they provided reasonable forecasts. I think their forecast accuracy was extremely low in many cases and fares very poorly when put against competitors: https://theoutline.com/post/3826/crap-weather-apps-meteorolgists?zd=1&zi=i2ilwk63 https://theoutline.com/post/3826/crap-weather-apps-meteorolg... Edit: "The scam" is that they exaggerated accuracy claims without backing it up.
