Ratings and reviews

I don't like the changes made to this app. The old one was nice and simple. Please add location to the earthquakes. We now have to zoom in, which takes extra steps and even then you don't have exact location like before. This change of ownership under Byron Allen has been the downfall of our local news and weather by getting rid of our local anchors and weathermen and now this.

The app is OK but needs to be improved. There's an ad every time the app is opened, frustrating in times of severe weather. When there's a warning, the video clips are too short to even see where they are. There's not enough time to pause it before it automatically starts playing the next video. The weather update videos are super quiet, especially compared to the mandatory ads that play before them. There's an audio notification, but there's nothing to click on to see what the update is.

App is fairly decent. Widgets don't work on my phone though. Doesn't matter which of the weather displaying ones I pick, it says location unknown, displays no weather info, and is just gray and white. The app has my location and all permissions are enabled so the widgets should be working but they appear to be unfinished or broken. Also, as other reviews have mentioned, when you open the app it displays an ad for little too long of a time which can be a little annoying.
