Highly recommended
This weather app is genuinely good for keeping an eye on the weather it’s got all different kind of features where you can see lighting strikes and tornado paths and wind paths right there on the radar. I have been using it for years and it has never let me down.
Used to be good but…
Used be good for weather with just some passive ads but they’ve recently changed the way ads appear. Now ads fill the screen and you have to watch for a certain amount of time before you can close the ad. The closure button is hidden/obscured. Just another blatant and annoying way to generate more advertisement dollars.

Sharing option.
Can you please fix the sharing capability? I wanted to share the latest Wx report via text with my family who intends to drive into town. All I needed was the link to paste in a text. (No text option to share) The button for email didn’t work, and Twitter, FB and LinkedIn wanted me to log in before I could copy the link. I don’t want to log in manually since I have no intention of using the social media. AND once I got to the log in screen there was no ‘back’ or ‘close’ option to get out of there and back to the page I was on with the report. I had to go to menu and re-navigate to the page I was on each time. I just wanted a link, pretty please:)
OKKK ETA- I was using the buttons under the video in my comments above, still valid issues. I just now found the icon that appears on the video itself before it starts playing, <, I got the link, but some cleanup efforts would be good, it was too hard to find.

More Ads than Weather
The formatting looks like something from the early 2000s. Gigantic out of focus/proportion pop-up ads are a bit disconcerting. I deleted it.
Videos hijack control of app
So many ads that I can watch my battery going down while numerous ads load and then when the ads change the article reloads and you have to wait again. Video articles have no way of closing them so you have to sit through commercials at both the beginning and end of the video unless you close the app itself. Weather radar seems to run 7-8 minutes behind so storms are already through before the radar shows them near you.

Last update erased my saved locations
I travel all over Ohio... Would be better to not have to re-enter my 10 locations after the app updates. Also would be a better app if it had pollen/allergy data somewhere.
App Crashes When Submitting Photos
I downloaded this app to submit some weather photos this morning but every time I submit an image the app crashes. Please fix.
Wonderful App!
Have shared with my family in and outside of Columbus. Wonderful
Needs an update
The latest OS release has stymied the storm motion view. It disappears once you hit the play button.
Needs bug fix
With the latest upgrade to iOS 12.0 the VIPIR weather map does not stream the storm fronts as it used to in previous versions. I see the front as a still, but when I go to see the movement I get nothing, not even current conditions.

Unique Local Weather
This is a unique local weather app from a news station with and easy user interface. I don’t think the only weather updates there should be are for rain. If you want a complete weather alert system the user should be able to select snow, ice, extreme cold and heat. Can you take off all the news stuff and just have weather and weather news.

Why
This new updated version stinks. The old one was easier to use. Need functional not fancy!!
Not an 'upgrade'
The new weather app does not allow you to see the forecast by hour in a list, it was replaced by a slide function to see pictures but it now takes way longer to look at the day and I end up using a different app instead that functions better.
Was good until they added all the video and commercials
It's impossible to read a news story now. Interruptions by video playing or ads opening. It's only useful for weather. I will be deleting and trying another local news station's app.
Great weather but...
If you're looking for news, try a different app. Once you try to open a news article, you get a mangled version of the NBC4 web site. The layout for the page headers render so poorly they they just end up being several blocks of color all in the wrong place, and the text is so huge that you can't read the article on a phone.
The weather forecast and info are better than any national forecast, so that's great, but if you want more than weather, this app is terrible.

Quit WCMH after 50 years
I grew up in Columbus and Channel 4 has been my favorite since my informative years. Unfortunately, they have an over active IT department that constantly changes the format. I got tired of it and now moved to other news sources. Too bad, always thought they were the best at reporting the news, but I am interested in news, not internet gimmicks. Good bye favorite news source!

Sorry weather app
This a poor excuse for a "weather" app. It also has news, traffic etc. I only wanted weather. The old TV4 weather app is being changed to a Washington DC locale. I really don't care that much about DC's weather.
Won't download.
Tried deleting and reloading. The previous version worked great, this is a new development, within the past week. Just says waiting.
Very Disappointing
It doesn't work most of the time.
Perfectly good app
Loads quickly, doesn't crash, and appears to be accurate. I expected it to have video of the most recent channel 4 forecast. So it's a fine weather app but doesn't really offer anything that a national weather app that can be set to a certain location doesn't offer.
