BBC Weather - Latest Quality Issues

Not a bad app, but sometimes it's not very accurate. For example it may say that there's 0% chance of rain, but it still rains!

Great app, but…
…it's frustrating that the sunrise and sunset times don't fit on the page properly. Whilst the time of sunrise is visible, sunset time is cut-off and so can't be read. It used to fit properly, but hasn't for some time. Really a very small adjustment would fix that. (I use an iPhone).

Almost unbelievable incompetence
I know that the British weather can be difficult to predict,but one thing that it should not be difficult to do, in the age of the mobile phone and the webcam, is to tell us what the wrather is actually doing RIGHT NOW. However, something as simple as this seems to be beyond the powers of the good old BBC. I've lost cont of the number of times that this useless app has told me that I'm basking in glorious sunshine while in reality it is peeing down.

Often completely wrong
Looking out of my window this app says I should be soaked in glorious sunshine. It's completely overcast. The Apple weather app while not great, I much preferred Dark Sky before they killed it, is far more reliable.

It's not very accurate and often varies considerably compared to BBC weather on the television, why!?

Forced update
Suddenly goes straight to App Store instead of opening. No message about a compulsory update. What's going on? This app is getting increasingly flaky. Recently there was a data issue with ludicrous temperature values. Somebody isn't doing their job competently.

Locations can’t be added to account
What's up with this app?! Can't add or delete my selected locations!

Wrong
Not sure if the app is poor or the forecasters are wrong but the forecast given in the app is nothing like what is actually happening! ( for example app shows rain but the actual weather is blue sky) and sometimes the forecast seems to change to a completely different one ( it's like someone at the BBC looked out of a window and changed the app accordingly)
