Ads made me delete forever

Forced ads as soon as you open the app and anytime you select a new tab. Ridiculous for a weather app.

Ads

This app has always been my go to app for all of my weather related needs, I will be deleting it because of the new version of ads! I usually don’t mind ads, but the way they use them in this app are ridiculous! It’s everytime I open it and most of the time pops up every few minutes while I’m actively using the app. They are very long ads and it takes three steps to complete the ad to go back to the app. This has ruined my usage of this app.

Unable to Use Due to Ads

The ads pop up too frequently and you can’t even exit out of the ad. You have to exit out of the app entirely and hope that when you open it back up, it might maybe let you actually use the app long enough to check the weather before another ad pops up and halts your use of the app. This is a local organization so I gave them a few weeks to get the issue sorted out and the ads went away but then they came back. It seems they care more about receiving money from marketing than allowing their community access to weather forecasts.

I hate full screen ads!

This app has always been great, and the most accurate weather app compared to so many others on the market but I can’t stand full screen ads! I open the app, and I get a full screen ad right away any more. Click on the map tab, full screen ad, can’t even look at the map fully without getting another full screen ad. Want to look at the hourly? Got to watch a full screen ad first, want to scroll down, you get another full screen ad! So annoying! I have to close to app just to open it again, just to get another ad! I know you got to pay bills but come on folks!
