Ratings and reviews

This app runs great and is easy to use. It's easy to get a glimpse of the weather and future weather. And the radar runs great as well, but it is buggy with the UI elements. I'll give it a five-star once the UI for the radar is fixed. (When trying to change the layers or what type of radar you wanted to see, it wouldn't let you. It just refreshed the radar but kept the settings the same.)

Edit: By bouncing, I mean that after it loads it will jump around in non-sequential time. For example, it will show images at 5:00, 5:30, 5:40, 5:10, 5:50, 5:00, 5:20, etc. Just randomly bouncing among the times in the range. Happens every time, and especially if I resize the scale on the map or change settings (image source, etc.). Good, clean, concise app. Too bad the radar doesn't work. It bounces randomly between times, crashes often, etc. Using on a Pixel.

Like the functions but can't make it save locations - very annoying - originally I thought that it cleared memory of saved locations each day, but now it seems to be doing it randomly. I save a location, even if I flag it as a favorite, it is still deleted, sometimes each time I open the app, sometimes it let's me open several times in a row. I don't believe I have ever seen it remember my location on the first use in a day.

What’s new

Removed the popup dialog when clicking the radar map and there are no hazards to show.
