Used to be a game changer and awesome app. Used it all the time. Now, since "upgrade". it's pretty inefficient and will no longer use it nor recommend it. You have to wonder what the heck are developers doing when they "upgrade" things. They are obviously not users. Now, you can't enter international cities (I have family in Europe) and you can't enter temp widget on the status bar of your phone, And the worst thing is the new mapping..... a regressive, backwards attempt. Horrible app, horrible "upgrade". Would give less stars if I could. Will be uninstalling.

The new update is not as user friendly. I use this primarily for the local weather but it no longer offers me the option to open with the weather. The format & font size of the hour by hour forecast is EXTREMELY difficult to read, especially with bifocals. The old app was absolutely better than this. It is as though the developers decided to take all the best parts of the old app & trash them. Based on the other reviews, most people have the same issues & yet there has been no move to fix it.

This is a somewhat stupid app. Every morning I tap it to get the weather and watch the weather forecast video. Yet, most times app asks for me to connect to internet. I always wind up opening another app like Twitter or Discord, then the NBC app goes, oh you already have a connection. I've updated it, still the same issues of not loading, due to it no being able to find a Wi-Fi. It refuses to use my unlimited data plan. Definitely not doing me any favors. I deal with it, for now.
