Every day, millions of new applications are developed that help us to live life in a better way. Having these may alternatives, especially when it comes to smartphone applications, is not good because this simply creates confusion among people. Every application has its own merits and demerits. This article is not about suggesting which apps are good and which are bad. Here, I’ll simply write down some of the disadvantages of using one of the popular Weather app- FMI Weather. Check this out for more info.
The first disadvantage of FMI Weather is that in order to use this application, you need to have Internet connection in your smartphone. Without Internet, the application is of no use. If you have a Wi-Fi in your workplace and home, this might not come as a problem. But sometimes, Wi-Fi networks are not available and you need to use mobile data packs. In most of the developing countries, mobile data plans are way too expensive. Thus, in such places FMI Weather cannot be effective.
Second disadvantage of this application is that like its name suggests, the app mainly focuses on Finland. You can check the weather updates of more than 17000 places of Finland. Including these places, it also covers some of the most popular cities all over the world. Needless to mention, the world is lot bigger than some few popular cities and not including only these cities is doing nothing but spoiling the app itself. The bottom-line here is that the app is useful only for people living in Finland.
The third disadvantage of using FMI Weather in your device is that it is not very easy to use. Despite the developers claiming it to be very user friendly, nobody can deny the fact that FMI Weather is a bit difficult to use. Different complex terms that are used in this application such as Wind speed, warning for different localities, probability of rainfall has played a big role in holding the application back. As users normally look for straight forward options like Temperature and humidity, such terms will only make it more difficult for users to use the application.
The next disadvantage of FMI Weather is that the updates are not mostly live and the source from which the information is borrowed is not considered to be very reliable. There is a good probability that rain might fall on a day when the applications says the probability of this happening is almost zero. Similarly, the sun might shine to the fullest even the applications says the day will mostly be cloudy.
Well, there are some of the disadvantages of using FMI Weather in your smartphone. It is true that the information derived from these types of sources is not reliable but we can always use it for references. At least it is better to know something about the place than to know absolutely nothing. If you own a smartphone, go for it. Trust me; you’ll have so much fun!
