Suddenly can’t click on lightning bolt icons
Dear Pinpoint Weather app developers: a key feature is suddenly not working. You can no longer click on the lightning bolt icons on the radar map to see the time and type of the lightning strike. Please fix this ASAP! That feature is what made this weather app truly the best.
This app used to be best the Denver weather app by a long shot because: (1) the precipitation radar was more precise and accurate than every other weather app I’ve tried; (2) it would real-time add a lightning bolt icon to the radar map in the exact location of the strike; and (3) you could click on any lightning bolt icon on the radar map to see the time of the strike and the type of strike (e.g., cloud-to-cloud, etc.).
Numbers (1) and (2) are still true, so it’s still a good weather app, but (3) is no longer true. You can no longer click on a lightning bolt icon to see the time or type of strike. I can’t imagine the app developers disabled this feature on purpose. Developers, please fix this ASAP!

Great app...
I have been using this app for a couple of years now. The radar/s are excellent; the only thing missing is pollen counts and alerts!!
Terrible
So many times it’s literally raining on me and the app shows nothing on the radar. And if it was a 20% chance earlier that it might rain but is now pouring on me, maybe change it to 100%? Nope. Still 20% and still nothing on the radar. Why don’t they just see what weather channel is doing and report that. And they keep advertising it as the most accurate weather app. Jeez that’s terrifying. What else is fox news completely blind amd ignorant about?😂

Worst app ever
When I click on the articles tab it’s because I want to quickly read a summary of the weather before leaving for work. Instead of being able to read the article I get bombarded by repeated video ads that automatically open up and have to close the out before I can read. Doesn’t matter how accurate the forecast is if you can’t read it. So much for “performance” improvements.

Great app. Wish the online instructions were a little better
I’ve learned to make this very useful. I love that I can select, for example, precipitation, clouds, and temperature from the menu (3 vertical dots) at the bottom right of the screen. Then with the menu still open I can go to overlays at the bottom and select storm track and lightning and have what I’ll call fans show on the radar view. Those fans are storms. Touch the vertex and the severity of the storm is displayed including the size of hail if appropriate. It’s incredible to have this in the palm of my hand on a free app.

This weather app is very inaccurate!
I have been using this app every day and it is never right with the future weather that is going to happen. I am deleting this app from my phone because I’m so mad. I had a real terrible hail storm come through and I had no warning whatsoever until the storm was at my house which was a little bit too late. Very disappointed!

Ransomware!!!
Accidentally clicked one of the ads in the app and was immediately redirected to a browser page. Then an alert popped up on my screen saying my phone has been compromised and i need to pay to fix it or lose everything?!
Please add
I like the app. Please add a widget so we add it to the Home Screen on the phone.
Just mirrors the Weather Channel app
The hourly forecast changes, sometimes dramatically, every 5-10 minutes making planning impossible. The forecast itself just repeats the Weather Channel and frequently contradicts their on air forecast. For example, just today on air the snow prediction for Conifer CO was less than 2 inches of snow through Wednesday night. The app however says 6-12 inches for the same time period.

Pop ups in the middle of viewing
The amount of pop up ads you have suddenly placed in your app has made your app useless.
Used to be my go to for weather but I don’t need to watch a 30 second commercial to get the weather.
