Needs a seperate news and weather app just like Facebook.

Overall good app though. Just a thought though. Would be nice to have 2 separate apps one for the news and one for the weather

It’s a great app. Very reliable whenever it comes to rain and in my business it is very important to keep up with the weather. And it’s great when it comes to keeping up with the latest traffic news.
