4/5Update stinks
The previous version gave the current temperature. This one doesn’t. This version looks the same as all the other weather apps with the exception of the current temperature.

3/5The update is bad
The previous version was perfect. Now, the first thing you see is a video of the weather report. I ain’t got time for that. In the old version I could open the app and learn what I wanted to know at a glance. If I had the time and wanted to see the video, I knew where it was. I never once, even now, watch the video of the weatherman. If I have time for more than a glance, my second go to is the radar animation. I’ve lived in Memphis my whole life. I can tel the weather for the next few hours just as good as your meteorologist if I can see the radar animation. And I get that information in seconds instead of minutes. If I want to see the long term forecast, I can punch that up. Again, without ever watching your weatherman. The new ap is more cumbersome and less informative. If that was your goal, good job.

1/5the redesign is horrible
Absolutely worthless app redesign. Now any useful information—you know, like the weather, in a Weather App—is either buried halfway down the page, or moved to a different page entirely. The radar has been reduced to a tiny, barely-noticeable bar along the very top, and much of the app’s genuine functionality (looking at radar and conditions) seems to have been sacrificed for the sake of a worthless, enormous video playback slapped front and center on the main screen. If I wanted to watch the weather, I’d turn on the TV. I use an app to quickly check forecasts, lightning strikes, etc., and the WREG app was good for that beforehand, but now it’s basically junk with the new redesign.

1/5How to ruin an app
This was a good weather app, it worked fairly well and didn’t crash too often. However it has been ruined by the latest update. It used to open with the weather map and the current conditions, including the temp. It now opens with a page of selections, including videos of previous tv forecasts. As far as I can tell, THE CURRENT TEMPERATURE IS NOT SHOWN ANYWHERE. Let that sink-in; a weather app that doesn’t give you the actual weather. It was telling me their predicted temp this morning was 64F. It was not 64F outside, it was more like 54F. Useless.

2/5Great.....but
I have grown up watching WREG weather! I’m not about to change. And their app is great, but i wish i could watch the videos they post from the news casts. But they take far too long to sit and let it load to be able to watch. I sat and stared at the video loading for almost 10 minutes without being able to watch it and finally just gave up. Guess i won’t know what they said about tomorrow’s forecast since i don’t get local tv stations anymore.
