- Rated 5 out of 5by Mike , 8 years agoI was disappointed when ForecastFox fix edition stopped working correctly and a working version was not in sight, but now that a friend pointed out this extension, I'm a happy camper again.
Other reviews seem to complain about features missing or not working correctly, but the version I'm using seems to have everything working correctly, with the desired features present. And one complaint reads as if the writer can't tell the difference between ForecastFox and Weather-extension - two different critters!
No, the display isn't the same as ForecastFox - thank Mozilla for "improving" Firefox and breaking that - but it works smoothly and gives me plenty of information to meet my needs.

posted 8 years agoGlad you like it!. What features are you missing from Forecast Fox? - Rated 5 out of 5by NYKim, 8 years agoI have been looking for a reliable Weather extension. This one fit the bill. Thank you for the upgrade to Pro! I'd love to see the ability to move it to the status bar and show an extended several days of weather.
- Rated 5 out of 5by navic99, 8 years agoVery good extension. Simple to use. I would love to see it on the status bar so I could check the 5 day forecast at a glance without having to click the icon.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 13042640, 8 years agoFor years I have had my weather on my addon/status bar at the bottom of my browser windows. Regrettably, Forecastfox is no longer supported. I see that your addon seemed to have good reviews. I wanted to get one that would be like my last three weather addons, and be on my addon/status bar at the bottom of my screen. I like the ability to see the forecast at a glance. I noticed that this one was in the toolbar, and was hoping to move it down to the addon/status bar, but instead I accidentally took it off of my toolbar and now can't get it back. Having on the toolbar makes it very difficult to even see the icon. It is way too small, and I can't just glance at my screen and see the weather for the next several days. Please Help!

posted 8 years agoHave you tried right clicking on your toolbar and choosing customize? Look for the weather icon. Also make sure you don't have the 'Light Badge' option turned on unless you have a dark theme. Please email me at weatherextension@gmail.com and I'll help you more. Thanks! - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 11228902, 8 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Gary Bruce, 8 years agoI installed the app, then went and fiddled with the settings and clicked everything on. Well there is a switch that lightens the button. After a futile attempt the figure it out, I emailed Tim, and within 10 minutes Tim email back with the fix for my screw up. Thanks Again, Tim

- Rated 5 out of 5by L L, 8 years agoSimple, informative, not too much details. Very good communication and response from developer. I wish to see some kind of weather icon instead plain temperature value.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Rick, 8 years agoWork perfectly well, all the information that is needed for the days to come. Good contact with the developper and good FAQ section. Wish I could add more cities .
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12416395, 8 years agoReally happy to have found an extension that uses the Dark Sky API. The developer has been fantastically responsive and has responded to any issues personally and quickly. You won't be disappointed.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12700693, 9 years agoI was using this on Chrome and was glad to see it on Firefox as well! Nice weather program with simple, clean interface. Tim is quick to respond to questions and problems and has been very helpful!
Just fyi, this needs geolocation to be on in order to work properly. So if you just get a spinning icon, make sure you haven't disabled geolocation in about:config. :)
