  1. 5/5Best weather app. Ever!

    I was on a cruise up the coast from Portugal-to-France. Noticed a bunch of people parked w/their cell phones around a McDs just as we made out 1st stop in France. Turned on my Wi-Fi & joined them. Hit the WLEX weather app on ‘follow’ & it gave me a accurate forcast! It’s pretty accurate from Somerset (KY) too.😉

  2. 1/5Another update- again ☹️

    The ads are back. I’m done. This is an update to my weather rock review submitted a few days ago (see below). You may only see it here but I’d like to believe someone has realized that the ad driven dissatisfaction of all recent reviews has resulted in change and this again becoming my go to weather app, for now. I was just getting comfortable with a different source for staying weather aware when I decided to check to see if our opinions mattered. I didn’t want to mention in my first review that the ads not only made me dislike the app but I would’ve never sought what was being marketed because of their role with what had become an unusable tool - I was being generous with 2 stars. Being pleased with the “fix”, I couldn’t leave my rating the way it was. I’ll give it another week at least. For now, thank you very much. Earlier review: Can’t touch the screen hardly without it playing the scripps advertisement. VERY ANNOYING! About to hang a rock outside my window and if it’s wet it’s raining, swaying then windy. Please stop.

  3. 1/5I hate full screen ads!

    This app has always been great, and the most accurate weather app compared to so many others on the market but I can’t stand full screen ads! I open the app, and I get a full screen ad right away any more. Click on the map tab, full screen ad, can’t even look at the map fully without getting another full screen ad. Want to look at the hourly? Got to watch a full screen ad first, want to scroll down, you get another full screen ad! So annoying! I have to close to app just to open it again, just to get another ad! I know you got to pay bills but come on folks!

  4. 1/5Unable to Use Due to Ads

    The ads pop up too frequently and you can’t even exit out of the ad. You have to exit out of the app entirely and hope that when you open it back up, it might maybe let you actually use the app long enough to check the weather before another ad pops up and halts your use of the app. This is a local organization so I gave them a few weeks to get the issue sorted out and the ads went away but then they came back. It seems they care more about receiving money from marketing than allowing their community access to weather forecasts.

  5. 2/5Font too small

    While it’s troublesome to read the hourly/daily app it becomes dangerous when one cannot even begin to make out what the weather alerts state. Between obnoxious ads popping up while trying to make out words on the special weather statement page and the fact the font is soooo small along with the white sun beams covering each page (or whatever they’re supposed to be) it’s near impossible to figure out what LEX18 is trying to warn the app user about. The rest of the app is great. Fix the font size though or give us an option to enlarge or decrease it.
