Sunday has fridays news. Anyway good luck with your app ,,goodbye!! ### 2/5 — Weather app *2022-03-22, version 5.4.944* It’s not user friendly ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2025-12-10, version 5.17.806* Tried to “find” school closing “ in a search box. None to be found ### 1/5 — Weather *2022-02-02, version 5.4.944* I want to see the weather, not ads! ### 1/5 — Constantly sending messages *2022-01-21, version 5.4.944* The reason why I got this app was to be informed if there is severe weather conditions I don’t need it to go off just to tell me it’s sunny outside or it’s gonna be cold for the next couple days very irritating ### 1/5 — Never works *2021-06-29, version 5.3.800* It never works when we need it most ### 1/5 — Not as good as the old one. *2021-03-26, version 5.2.302* I wish u would go back to the old version. I was able to pick it up on my outdated iPhone u til it ran out of ego and I couldn’t remember the password to keep it going. It was the best. I don’t like the new cmverdion at all so I gave it one star. ### 1/5 — Horrible service *2020-03-18, version 4.10.2700* We depend on the news for information but when the service blinks out or goes to the gray station provider screen of death is very frustrating for viewers the kids apps work better than the news app 👎🏻 ### 1/5 — PLEASE Optimize App for Newer Phones *2018-03-20, version 4.6.901* The app would be much more useable for those of us with iPhone X or Plus-Size Devices if properly designed for our screens. I was hopeful that this update would finally fix that, but I have to resort to using a different, non-local app because of this :( ### 1/5 — It crashes every time need update *2015-02-28, version 2.7.16* On wifi it works great then when i get out on the road nothing i only loads 2 squares and shows no info just 2 pictures. This needs to be updated asap ### 2/5 — Intrusive ads *2025-09-03, version 5.17.705* I had used this app for a few years and felt it was worthwhile. Over the last year however, I had to delete and reinstall the app as it becomes bombarded with ads for random games, health aids or other nonsense. You can’t stop the ad at any point prior to it ending. I get these before I can get weather and during use…It has become a hinderance to the purpose of the app. Huge WASTE of time ### 2/5 — The x out *2024-10-01, version 5.16.1702* That stupid airplane lessons is to hard to x out. Upper right hand corner on I-phone. Move the x please. Radar missing half the time. Very close to x ing your app out ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Weather *2026-07-13, version 6.2.513* Thanks y’all for what y’all do can you tell that Isaac guy it’s ok to smile sometimes….. ### 5/5 — Weather knowledge! *2024-07-22, version 5.15.401* I enjoy knowing that I can look to Storm Tracker 12 for weather updates and forecasts. ### 5/5 — Weather alert *2023-08-09, version 5.10.500* I don’t think that the weather is user friendly! It doesn’t really show you what weather is coming at you! ### 5/5 — No more video ads, please *2022-07-26, version 5.6.501* Please discontinue the video ads. They are disruptive to the experience. In severe weather, hearing from Mark Bernstein isn’t helpful anyway. To close the ad window, I have to tip my phone horizontal to expose the X. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2021-06-26, version 5.3.800* Love this app red haired goddess ### 5/5 — Fix earth quake data *2019-06-28, version 4.8.900* Please fix the earth quake button, your update stopped me checking for earth quakes ### 3/5 — Too many ads *2025-05-28, version 5.17.508* Too many pop up ads that like to linger. And what’s with the map app link that doesn’t go anywhere? ### 3/5 — No sound on video forecasts ? *2023-10-02, version 5.11.501* Suddenly all videos don’t have sound. Weird. ### 3/5 — Drains battery in background *2020-06-18, version 5.0.402* There is a lot to like about this weather app but it runs in the background even with refresh off. In the past day I used the app 4 minutes but it ran in background for 9 1/2 hours and used 51% of the battery! Need to fix that! ### 3/5 — New *2014-09-10, version 2.7.12* For being a new app it's alright. It's pretty accurate however it is really slow when loading. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
