1/5Aggravating update
The Radar map has motion control right on top of the map. The original map looked much better. The hourly forecast is graphic and not tabular so now you need to scroll sideways - annoying. There appears to be more ads mixed in which makes it difficult to get to what you want to view. Bring back the original app please.

1/5New Update Really Bad
This new “updated modern” format stinks. The map is LESS interactive than previous editions. You can’t see lightning strikes. The colored boxes are not labelled on the map. (You can see them but there is nothing telling you why they are there). I subscribe to weather Alerts and have gotten none. It is advertisement driven. Fix it or it goes bye bye. Using another app in the meantime -AccuWeather.

1/5Update? No thanks.
I’ve never written a review before. This was my go to for weather. It was easy to navigate and find the info I was looking for. The recent update is horrible. It’s hard to locate the info I want now. Seems there’s a bunch of ads on the app now so much so that I often can’t tell what’s an ad and what’s an actual part of the app content. And the presentation of the info is such that I can’t find what I want anymore. Visually it’s extremely unappealing and it’s way to busy. Disappointed and will be deleting the app and finding a better one.

2/5Update worse
Was an easy to navigate app, with everything needed. Update provides new graphics, which get in way of use but provides more advertising space, slows down use, and I want the old app back! I don’t want to be a forecaster, just a user who needs details in a hurry!

1/5Terrible update!
This app used to be great and our go-to until this last update. It’s not worth the hassle since there are much better weather apps out there. I wholeheartedly suggest the newly updated Weather Channel’s app offering, it’s excellent! We are just about done with channel 4. Even viewing with the cable this station pixelates, goes dark and has trouble with smooth transitions - pretty sad and at times maddening.
