Stay prepared for any conditions
MSN Weather is a free, in-depth app that provides you with hourly, daily, and weekly analyses of conditions from all over the world. However, the mobile app lacks smoothness and some functionalities.
Detailed and full of potential
MSN Weather is Microsoft’s app for weather forecasts, providing detailed predictions across a wide array of fields for up to 10 days.
MSN weather offers accurate information about the latest weather conditions from any part of the world and up to several days in advance.
Forecasts are quite detailed and you can see up to 10 days in advance. The app shows you everything from temperature and chance for precipitation to the barometer, visibility, and moon phase.
You can view all this information in a table or through an interactive map, although the latter is quite glitchy.
Since the app covers a wide array of places, you can select those relevant to you and add them to favorites using your Microsoft account.
The app sends you severe weather alerts, too, helping you prepare in case of disaster. To make it even more approachable, Microsoft lets you sync your favorite locations for all devices.
Where can you run this program?
You can run this app on Android 4.2 and up, iOS 9.0 and later, as well as Windows and Mac desktops.
Is there a better alternative?
Yes. Although few tie all the data together as well as MSN Weather, the performance of competitors prevails. Alternatives include Forecast, Prognoza, and Appy Weather.
Our take
While MSN Weather is fantastic on PC, the app falls short of the mark. It lacks the convenience and functionalities of the desktop version.
Should you download it?
No. You should stick to this app on your computer and find an alternative for usage on the go.
