Predatory Ads

I understand this is a free app, but it’s loaded with clickbait for senior citizens. I have spoken with KTRE and they said “show me”. I did and then they never replied. Obviously they don’t care that they’re part of the problem.

ADS THAT TRICK ELDERLY

This app is not only inaccurate and unreliable but also stacked with predatory ads targeting older people.

Ads

The sheer amount of ads is making this thing unbearable to use. Especially since they are the AI generated bs

Predatory Ads

This app is not only inaccurate and unreliable but also stacked with predatory ads waiting to steal your data. Shameful.
HHjglover

Unreliable

I don’t know what has happened to this app as it used to be very reliable for those of us in rural east texas. Nowadays the daily forecasts only play the ads and not the forecast! And it appears as no one is monitoring the information, radar doesn’t show current conditions according to the stats!
C’mon, people rely on ya’ll !!
