Ratings and reviews

the location is always wrong. "follow me" doesn't work. I've cleared cache and data, uninstalled and reinstalled, calibrated compass. app has access location all the time. I just got a notification that the app received my location, and when I checked the app it's still wrong. every other app that uses location is correct.

It is good to have when there is a threat of bad weather. Other times, you will get a notification about weather day. Clicking on the notification will most times take you to the app to watch an ad before watching a video concerning the notification. You can get the same information from any other weather app faster than watching the ad. And there is no premium service offered to rid you of the ads!

I appreciate having access to the weather forecast on the go–got the short cut to the app on my home screen😙–plus the alerts when severe weather pops up. Don't havta be tuned in to the actual station to keep up with the latest developments. This came in handy when a tornado touched down about 5 miles from where we were seeking shelter with no access to a tv/radio. I also like the radar feature. Worth every MB of space used on my phone.
