Ratings and reviews

update: that ad hasn't popped up since I put in this review. hope it stays that way.... well.... this has been my favorite local weather app for awhile... until the tornados were blowing through and I tried to check the radar. had to wait for a 30-45 second ad JUST to see the radar. the little ads on the screen are fine! I understand why you need them. BUT when you do a full screen 30-45+ second ad that refuses to let you close out during an EMERGENCY..... do you see the problem here?

This used to be a decent app. But now the ads have become intrusive and disruptive! Full page pop-up ads that hijack my screen for about 1 minute before I can exit out of the ad. Do you really think I'm going to pay anymore attention to the ads by hijacking my screen? And BTW, the updates to the radar viewing are subpar and hideous. Wish you had left well-enough alone!

We USED to love this app. Since its last update, it's worthless. Why? First, is Fox23 so broke that they have to have ADS on a weather app???? Really? When you're needing to check the weather, especially inclement weather, you're forced to WAIT for an ad... unbelievable!! Plus, the new radar is worthless. I've noticed that, a lot of the time, it's different than the other radar I have installed. And, it proves to be much more inaccurate in the "Future" setting. C'mon Fox23, get this fixed!
