Ratings and reviews

Same experience here. As of 12/3/2021, the app crashes immediately when trying to open. Re-installing did not help. Now permanently uninstalled. Update 12/5/2021: Received a response and a fix released from the developer the next day after posting the above issue. Very good customer service. The app is now re-installed. Thanks.

Super consistent. Some of the the news apps crash a lot. This one as never crashed on me. I also have not had to adjust the notification settings. It doesn't spam you with everything every minute of th day.

Okay, but forecasts too hard to see. Can't zoom on the pictures and can't touch them to make them larger. Also, forecast rarely matches their own first alert 5 app with snow forecast, typically report two different totals.
