Ratings and reviews

Way too many ads. Two active tornado warnings in my area and I have to click through several full screen ads and then sit through a 30 second ad before viewing life saving information on a tiny video that won't go full screen. By far the worst app ever and it might get someone killed. Edit: Four years later. We are having a record number of tornadoes and this same problem is still the same. Worthless app. Worthless company. You are withholding life-saving information when minutes count.

Had trouble with the app for 2 days so I uninstalled and reinstalled. To my disappointment It was entirely different. Not user-friendly. Trying to use it for over a week. Hard to find the daily and weekly forecast. No little storm bubbles on the radar like before. A lot less info. Hard to find anything the way it is now. If you're going to change it that much, you should have a tutorial when initially downloaded. You are the most accurate I have found, and now I don't feel safe w/ new app.

The latest update really destroys the UI in the app. Putting all the information on one single page that you have to scroll through makes it difficult to find and take in the information you're looking for. When most apps are trying for a cleaner, easier user experience you went full opposite and cluttered everything up. The current conditions, radar, and 7 day forecast should be in separate tabs to make it easier to find what you're looking for.
