Ratings and reviews

Would be a nice app if you could control it's features and it didn't consume so much battery. Went from carrying a phone that would last almost 2 days on a single charge to one that required charging twice a day. It posts notifications of everything. And when you go to the app and turn off ALL notifications, the app turns them back on. Even went into device settings and shut down notifications from that app. It turned them back on. Uninstalled after 3 days.

Has no clue where the user is via GPS. I have installed and I installed this app 3 times to get it to use my location as the default forecast and radar info. It works for a few days then switches to Bryan. I DO NOT LIVE IN BRYAN. it won't let u customize the overlays either. I have tried to add wind speed and it won't add it at all. I moved lightning down a space and it has now disappeared from the overlay list and it will not reinstall it. This app has potential but has to many glitches.

Ridiculous and annoying changes to APP. Someone at KBTX must not have enough to do. In the Daily section, I don’t need the app to auto open the details of the first day of the 10-day forecast. I'm fully capable of doing that myself. Also, the app almost never agrees with what they forecast in their news on TV.
