So many ads
This use to be an app I used daily but lately there are so many ads popping up that it’s just too frustrating.
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!

I’m done with this app
Games ads are outof control
I am uninstalling this app altogether. I once used it every day. But now when you open the app you are spammed with game adds that lock your screen up. If i wanted a game i would go to the App Store myself geez!!!!!!
Ad’s Clutter Up App
GET RID OF THE ADVERTISING
Garbage App
Ad’s + Inaccurate
Too many ads
Please change something. With every tap to navigate the app there is a ad. If use this app often and it’s very frustrating. I do not like the new update.
Slow opening
Once I turn on the app, it’s like it’s a 30 second delay to go through the home screen and then a pop up or two and then you get your weather
Over Advertising
I used to love this app. I've had it for years. It was my goto for weather and I live in Texas. The most recent update on the pop up ads is unrelenting. I can't do it anymore. I'm sad to say I'm deleting it.

The app is so easy for me to use.

Storm tracker app is great
Best weather app ever!!!
I’ve had this app for several years now and by far better than any paid app I’ve used!
Worthless
So we hear storm sirens, head to our shelter, pull up this app and click the LIVE button. The stream is 40 minutes behind the current time. Not useful during tornado warnings.
Video Player Issues
The video player is wildly inconsistent. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. I assume it probably has something to do with loading advertisements before the forecast.
Another update- again ☹️
The ads are back. I’m done.
This is an update to my weather rock review submitted a few days ago (see below). You may only see it here but I’d like to believe someone has realized that the ad driven dissatisfaction of all recent reviews has resulted in change and this again becoming my go to weather app, for now. I was just getting comfortable with a different source for staying weather aware when I decided to check to see if our opinions mattered. I didn’t want to mention in my first review that the ads not only made me dislike the app but I would’ve never sought what was being marketed because of their role with what had become an unusable tool - I was being generous with 2 stars. Being pleased with the “fix”, I couldn’t leave my rating the way it was. I’ll give it another week at least. For now, thank you very much. Earlier review: Can’t touch the screen hardly without it playing the scripps advertisement. VERY ANNOYING! About to hang a rock outside my window and if it’s wet it’s raining, swaying then windy. Please stop.

New version needed
I’ve used this app for years as I live in the area where WLEX is located. In its current iteration, it is all but unusable unless you want to constantly turn your phone sideways so you can push the “X” to close out the pop up videos that continue to interrupt the reason you have the app in the first place. I would just as soon pay for a version that’s ad free or use a different app going forward.

Was great and perfect and now it’s not
Now it has an ad that takes over when you look at radar and you can’t ever click off of it . Oh well on to the next weather app.
