Ratings and reviews

The newest update: 1. They have put ads in the scroll down part of the hourly forecast hoping you will accidently click on one. 2. The background is no longer just a flat color, its the sky. Not great for anyone with visual impairment. 3. The amount of ads makes it look trashy. I would have paid a small amount of money for an ad free version of the older version. I wouldnt pay for this one. So disapointed in the changes made. Looking for a new local weather app.

I liked the app, but they recently changed it for the worse. On the home screen, it used to give great sciencetific details of the current temperature, dew point, wind speeds, etc. Now instead, it gives information that is silly and meaningless. "Feels like" temperature is simpleton words. And humidity doesn't really tell you what the outdoors is going to be like, dew point is a better indicator of the stickiness of the air. Be science based, not gushy.

I got sick of the constant notifications and alerts even when there is no bad weather in the area. And often, for a day or two after storms, I was still getting storm warning notifications. And even when there is bad weather, once I have received an alert, just because I clear the notification, doesn't mean it has to be immediately sent again. Annoying! And actually dangerous because you get used to ignoring the alerts. I've left this in review before and there's no response. UNINSTALLED TODAY!
