Ratings and reviews

This new version is garbage. Did anyone test it on the public before releasing it? Go see the temps for the week and it shows temps, but no day/date information is displayed. Go to About, check the the Email Support. The app asks what app to use to send the email, then opens the selected app and the TO: field is blank. How do we get support if we don't know the email address to send to? The app is difficult to navigate and no longer useful. The prior version was much better. Finding a new app.

Don't like this "update" at all. The forecasts for rain, which I love, honestly were a joke, but the radar was great for seeing where the storms were, how severe, etc. in the moment. And with the satellite view, I could get some amazing close-up looks at places all over the world. If that's in there somewhere, I haven't found it. Was there a demand for these changes? In my opinion, you fixed something that wasn't broken.

I've used this app for years, and it was my go-to. Now it sucks, hard to navigate, right off the bat, I got notifications I didn't ask for and had to reset all that. I want the written forecast right there like it used to be, and you just scroll down to what you want to see. Now, you have to navigate to everything. This was a poor decision. The old version was perfect. Seems I'm not alone here... listen to your viewers.
