Left because of the ads

I've been using this app for years but the recent update made ads pop up to fill the entire screen EACH time I change from radar to 10-day to hourly info. It's excessive and annoying and not how it used to be.

Ads?!

Have had this app for years and relied on it a LOT. Now, since the update, I get no less than 5 ads when I’m just trying to see how the week will be. This is annoying af! It will be less than helpful during storms and tornadoes. Can’t see what’s coming because I have to watch 2 ads first! I’ll probably delete this one and find an app from another local station.

You have ruined the app

This has always been my go to app for severe weather information. Now you can’t even open the app that adds pop up back to back and you can never close the second one, son you have to force close it over and over. NONSENSE. Quit being dang greedy.

Was great. Now not so much.

Ads are getting horrible, to the point that when they pop up there is no way to close the ads out, the button is there but completely unresponsive. Try closing the app and re opening to only have the same thing happen. Hopefully things change. But for time being will be deleting and looking elsewhere.

What happened

Used to be the best. Now it has an ad every 15 secs!! It was lacking for about a year, but now in the middle of a storm when I want to know where the tornado is I am waiting for the latest pay to play game to get off my screen. Plus they are tracking everything big time!! Sad to delete used to recommend as the best. Sellouts!
