After several clicks to get there I loaded it up. Eventually. And then it wants to know where I am. Why doesn't it know already? And defaults to Canada? Seriously underwhelmed. I cannot imagine ever using this so-called app in favour of all the many alternatives, including just looking out of the window.
I've got another cracker up my sleeve but it'll have to wait for the right moment.

I'd like to be able to have the temperature in Celsius, and the wind speed in Mph. The choice of imperial/metric does not cater for this.
Preference of Celcius/Mph? Me too. How on earth did that happen? There must be a cultural reason for it? I also struggle with kilos and divisions of, and prefer height, distance and speed to be in inches, feet, and miles. Ah, wind speed/vehicle speed = MPH.
I'm now happy with the disagree icon, because its gone.

We try to comply with these things, but just how many companies can you sacrifice your first-born to? :-)

I like the fact a new app, particularly a non video one has been added, hopefully is a sign of more to come. Not one i'll ever use but still good news overall.
Love that there's an increase in content but the app is too slow to be useful, at least on my Humax T2000. But here's hoping for some more. I'm honestly not impressed by the content; as providing a cloud or rain icon tells me nothing about the potential variation in conditions. I want my isobars, so will stick to the apps on my AppleTV thanks. What I'd really like is an app that records the hourly BBC News24 weather summaries and puts that on myTV home page, automatically overwriting the previous summary.

On AppleTV, are you sure those are not iosbars? :-)

Though after the first stop, Oporto, which was warm and sunny, they pretty much all said 'scorchio' :-)
