App “update”

What a disaster of an app update! Background white is harsh, absolutely ZERO presentation/layout. Did you assign this task to first-graders? Hard pass. Just dropped WVEC as a local news source.

Not sure I really like the new format. Especially the weather part.
It won’t stay on area I set it for. You have to click to many things to see what you want to see. It takes to long to get my specific information
