Ugly app and full page ads

This is probably the ugliest app on my phone but it does what it says. Paid! Edit 8 August 2022. Despite paying for the app, I’m getting full-page ads that last several seconds when the app is open. Really? And having installed the My Observatory app, that app is actually better. For a start, typhoon warnings actually appear on the weather widget. This isn’t true of this app, which is laughable considering it is called Hong Kong Warnings! Uninstalled.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. You shouldn’t ever see an ad if you’ve paid - I’ll check for that bug.

I don't understand

I did not understand the info so I deleted it

Love this!

All the weather you need to know in one great looking site.

Great information

As a frequent visitor to Hong Kong, my understanding of the seriousness of typhoon preparedness is growing. I downloaded this app as severe typhoon Usagi was approaching. It provides a comprehensive set of information which is kept very current to the changing conditions.
