Ratings and reviews

I don't find the ads to be too intrusive. I like the way forecasts are presented. The weather map is ok. However, I only give 3 stars because the accuracy is ridiculously bad, especially with regard to precipitation. It often gets precipitation completely wrong (heavy rain vs. no rain at all) just 15 minutes into the future. Imho, that is a weather app's most important feature. It doesn't matter how good your presentation is if you're presenting bad data.

A crazy amount of ads, for one. I'm not usually bothered by ads littered through an app, but ads that pop up and don't let me immediately dismiss them? Absolutely one of the most frustrating things to deal with. Second, I turned off all notifications except weather ones. I checked. Three times. I didn't want any notifications that didn't have to do with severe weather in my area. What did I continue to receive? Popular articles. Popular videos. Weather in areas I don't live in. No thank you.

It is fairly accurate. Hard to see the weather radar because the right 1/3 of the screen is FULL of ADS. How can I see the radar with all that? I enlarged it to delete the ad at the top. It was immediately replaced with ANOTHER AD! Not to mention there was still the one in the middle and one at the bottom. Should not have to spe d this much time and thumb effort to see something. Waste of time. Will look for something else.
