Ratings and reviews

This is my go to weather app, my only issue with it is that sometimes after you update it, it will tell you that you need to update it and won't let you see any information. I just delete and reinstall it when that happens. Set up is a location and notification permission, super easy and non invasive, no unnecessary features.

Good app with a usable interface. However the notifications are a pain in the butt and NEED to be adjusted. The phone vibration is much too strong for simple notifications, leading me to wake up at night and see "its going to be 25 degrees in a week". Why on earth would I need a notification every 6 hours telling me about the forecast for next week? Please let us schedule the forecast just like we can customize the weather threshold.

Updating the app is proving difficult. After I got the message that I must update the app, I went to Google Play and selected Update. After the update, the Update button changed to an Open button. When I select Open, I keep getting the message that I must update the app. I turned off all my apps and tried again. No luck. I guess the next step is to reboot the phone ... not happy.
