Annoying ads last to long

Over the last 4-8 weeks this go to weather app has become increasingly annoying. Although the app use to have static ads, now they pop up every time I open the app and change cities to view the weather. And the ads last 20 seconds long or more and you have to wait until the ad ends and exit, before a few screens later another ad pops up. So much for an ALERTING WEATHER APP that you need access to in a hurry.

Awful Ads

Deleting app after years due to ridiculous ads. Irrelevant to my needs. Weather is all I’m opening the app for. No longer

Faulty Advertisements

I am about to delete this app. When the advertisements opens, it cover the entire screen and has a close “X” in the top right-hand side. At no time (before, during, or after) can you close the app. You must completely close the app and open it again. Is this the quality product you want to be known for? Fix the programming and let us close it, even after the ad if required. Do you not Beta test before release?

5 Stars for “First Alert 5

Best weather App for pueblo, Colorado❣️

Widget?

I love your app. Any thoughts of making a widget? One that gives an overview of the day would be great, and that easily would take me to the app for more information.
