Sharing option.

Can you please fix the sharing capability? I wanted to share the latest Wx report via text with my family who intends to drive into town. All I needed was the link to paste in a text. (No text option to share) The button for email didn’t work, and Twitter, FB and LinkedIn wanted me to log in before I could copy the link. I don’t want to log in manually since I have no intention of using the social media. AND once I got to the log in screen there was no ‘back’ or ‘close’ option to get out of there and back to the page I was on with the report. I had to go to menu and re-navigate to the page I was on each time. I just wanted a link, pretty please:)

OKKK ETA- I was using the buttons under the video in my comments above, still valid issues. I just now found the icon that appears on the video itself before it starts playing, <, I got the link, but some cleanup efforts would be good, it was too hard to find.

More Ads than Weather

The formatting looks like something from the early 2000s. Gigantic out of focus/proportion pop-up ads are a bit disconcerting. I deleted it.

Videos hijack control of app

So many ads that I can watch my battery going down while numerous ads load and then when the ads change the article reloads and you have to wait again. Video articles have no way of closing them so you have to sit through commercials at both the beginning and end of the video unless you close the app itself. Weather radar seems to run 7-8 minutes behind so storms are already through before the radar shows them near you.

Last update erased my saved locations

I travel all over Ohio... Would be better to not have to re-enter my 10 locations after the app updates. Also would be a better app if it had pollen/allergy data somewhere.

App Crashes When Submitting Photos

I downloaded this app to submit some weather photos this morning but every time I submit an image the app crashes. Please fix.

Wonderful App!

Have shared with my family in and outside of Columbus. Wonderful

Needs an update

The latest OS release has stymied the storm motion view. It disappears once you hit the play button.

Needs bug fix

With the latest upgrade to iOS 12.0 the VIPIR weather map does not stream the storm fronts as it used to in previous versions. I see the front as a still, but when I go to see the movement I get nothing, not even current conditions.

Unique Local Weather

This is a unique local weather app from a news station with and easy user interface. I don’t think the only weather updates there should be are for rain. If you want a complete weather alert system the user should be able to select snow, ice, extreme cold and heat. Can you take off all the news stuff and just have weather and weather news.
