A METAR is the weather observation for an airport. A TAF is the forecast for that airport. You read them in a weather briefing, before the flight. When you are learning, you read them with your instructor. IFR Suite does not show them, and it does not decide whether to go.
There is no weather in the app. There is no ATIS. There is no radio and no microphone. It is not for a real flight.
One procedure, so the picture is familiar before you spend airplane time.
There are more than 9,800 airports and navaids. That is the place of the procedure, not a weather report for it. Glass or round gauges. The instruments stay in English. The session panel follows the language you choose.
The app does not copy a clearance, and it is not a source of charts. Time in the app is not flight time and not instrument time.
Use a short session, then fly the same procedure with your instructor.
