Ratings and reviews

This app is a bit annoying. It takes 5 seconds for the splash screen to go away and see the weather details. It's almost as bad as YouTubers with intros. Also, the pop-up notification is awful. Looks like a Microsoft Paint collage. Other than that, it's just a typical weather app. Oh, and there's nothing but awful Temu ads with half naked women. I'm only using this because AccuWeather seems to not care that their app hasn't worked in two weeks.

Update: This app is still trash, they are so worried about advertising that you can't even watch the commercials because they are playing two videos at once. ***** This app plays two different advertisements, simultaneously, when you open the app. Both video's audio plays even when you press the home screen and leave the app. Has been happening for weeks now.

When there is an alert, it will play a 30 second add. When you get a generic notifaction about said alert, it will play a 30 second add. If you open the app, and look into any element of the weather, it will play a 30 second add. After recent tornadoes in my area, this is a major flaw for the safety of your viewers. 30 seconds is all you have to get to safety more often than not. This app is worthless on so many levels. Oh, and the website? Just as glitchy and bogged down with ads. Sad...
