"Very Nice App ."
Version: YoWindow 3S build 145
Pros
Temps and forecasts (from National Weather Service) fairly accurate; artwork is pleasant (if somewhat rudimentary); hey, it's free.
Cons
Only a 3 day forecast and 1 background scene in free version.
Summary
Not my go-to app for checking the weather, but I check it out now & then if I only want to know the weather for the next day or two. I do like checking it at night to see the shooting stars, I must admit. (I find it relaxing when I need a break.) All-in-all, a nice app, and the price is right.

"Sadly overrated here."
Version: YoWindow 3S build 145
Pros
Looks impressive at first install. Layout excellent. Alternative city info very good. Temps broadly right.
Cons
Theme artwork basic. But my main gripe is that you are supposed to be looking out of a window at the weather. NO. My real window has different weather. Rare that it got rain right (although haven't seen rain for some months now as we have a drought on). Heavy clouds on Yo...clear blue sky's out of the real window. Gonna resist putting this back on having removed some while back out of sheer frustration.
Summary
Will try tea leaves.

"Accurate weather and temp readings."
Version: YoWindow 3S build 145
Pros
Price is right. The weather and temp predictions are usually accurate, even though the weather in Seattle is tough to predict. The choices of background leave a little to be desired, but what can one expect for free.
Cons
Free app, if you don't like it, delete it.
Summary
I check it once in a while for weather predictions.

"Best weather app I've used."
Version: YoWindow 3S build 141
Pros
Accurate & I like being able to see all my friends and relatives sub-standard weather as well.
Cons
I'd like it to be a bit easier to add your own picture and a 15 min or on demand refresh would be nice.

"Fantastic and fun"
Version: YoWindow 3S build 136

I've tried a lot of weather programs, Yowindow is simply the best. Very easy to set up. Can be set to a town near you so weather is very local. Any queries or suggestions can be put forward in the forum and receive fast responses.
Cons
None to speak of.
Summary
So simple to use, why go elsewhere.
