### 2/5 — Live weather stream isn’t reliable

*2023-04-05*

We had tornado warnings tonight and I tried to pull up the live stream on the app as I had in the past. I had to wait 30 seconds for an ad to play before I it would load the video and when it finally loaded it was playing the prerecorded newscast from 2 hours ago. I never could get the app or the mobile site to load the live stream. Please fix the live stream weather on this app! For safety sake it needs to be reliable with no ads.

### 1/5 — UI for app is unusable

*2023-03-26*

First, let me say this is a review of the app and not the Channel 31 weather.  I like Chris Yates, follow him on Twitter and I want to use this app for his forecasts. However, it is completely unusable. There is no navigation, a menu at the bottom for Current condition, hourly, daily, and radar is an absolute minimum.  

Even if you don’t want to make that change, something has to be done to how the daily forecast is shown. Tap on daily and then try to read the details at the bottom of the screen. There is no real estate on the screen to see the verbiage. This is on an iPhone 12.  Please update this app so I can use it.

### 5/5 — A+ app!

*2020-03-05*

Chris Yates is the only weatherman I trust to keep me informed and my family safe during severe weather! The team at WMBD is top notch and I love this app!

### 5/5 — CI PROUD WEATHER

*2019-10-26*

*2019-10-10*
