Ratings and reviews

Was great, now relentless ads that you can't get out of. Such a shame. Trying something else, not sitting thru a bunch of ads with blaring sounds & no way to exit. I can understand a 3 or 5 second ad that you can X out of after a short period of time, but 20 or 30+ seconds then a teeny-tiny X appears next to a bunch of links that take you elsewhere is intentional to get clicks so they can get paid more for than just running the ad. Deceptive & ignorant! Fat fingers BEWARE!

It was great for about a week, then when I opened it I had to sit through multiple ads that were either impossible to get out of and kept linking me back to Google play, or the ad would play through and there would be no option to get back to the app. It's easy to have ads with a normal size "x" to close- when that x is hidden or so small you accidentally hit something else- that's a deliberate choice. I uninstalled, since this app seemed to be more about selling me games than weather.

I checked the radar map and it showed no a drop of rain for hundreds of miles away. 20 minutes later I get a notification of heavy rain in my area. Guess what...it is not raining. So I looked at the map again and it's still clear. When I tapped on the warning it shows a lot of rain east of here. The app has not been very accurate lately.
