myENV for Android

This app is badly designed; the UX is mediocre, the functionality limited and you are deluged in data but struggle to determine relevant information. Hard to use and just an example of the “throw everything in the bucket and see what happens” school of design. The old weather@SG app was significantly better and there is now a space in my app bar for a decent Singapore focused weather application - because this isn’t one.

Whoever designed and decided to replace this to the old version, please try to think in users’ perspective…

This app tries to be fancy by including all NEA concerns in one app. It is no longer just a weather app. As such there is a lot of clutter that users are not interested in eg why would we use this app to find the nearest hawker Center? Why would we also use it for zika and dengue info? Do we want that type of info on a daily or hourly basis? NEA- pls take all your very poor ratings seriously and do something about it. Move away from being NEA centric and pay heed to what your customers are saying. Putting all weather issues in one clear page is a start! Hope to see some changes soon.

The previous app allowed 2 hours of weather timeline for local and many hours of timeline in the regional view. Both now only provide 1 hour in this app. These are important capabilities. The screen also doesn’t have a refresh capability, often requiring the app to be closed and reopened to refresh. There is also no “provide feedback” capability, instead just providing links to the various governmental authorities.

Seems like one of those cases where they made changes without talking to people who actually use the app. We use the weather app for planning on outdoor activities and determining e..g when to change / end the activity. Current app is completely useless. For instance, 1. Can’t get rid of all the clutter so you can actually see the map. IDon’t need or want to see anything but the map and satellite image when I am trying to look at the map. On small phone, is truly useless. 2. Can’t do multiple overlays so you can see, e.g., lightning and storm movement together 3. Can’t see timing for storm movement / intervals 4. Period of satellite movement is too short to give accurate sense of storm development / direction. 4. Inability to get longer range pattern on longer time scale. Etc.
