### 2/5 — Scams on 12

*2026-06-17, version 6.2.512*

I was considering channel 12 weather a good source of information but the ad and link for the Medicare additional benefit is considered a scam.

### 3/5 — Not as good as it was

*2026-05-26, version 6.1.601*

Something was changed in the app particularly with the radar. If you let it play it shows you what the radar had TWO hours ago. What good is that? It then plays to the current time and stops. Selecting “Future Radar” has an animation that starts at the current time, but with a totally different radar pattern! So I guess in one seconds time all the clouds rearranged themselves.

### 2/5 — Used to be the best, not anymore

*2026-04-24, version 6.1.601*

Since the last big update, temps have not been accurate. The map is terrible.

### 3/5 — The App Is Pretty Broken.

*2026-04-17, version 6.1.601*

First, I do like this app. I appreciate the future forecast map and how you get a lot of video updates on the weather, along with the lightning detected near your location feature. The unfortunate part is that hourly updates won’t show up at times and it only shows a ton of ads instead of the forecast. Another thing is when you pause a video or barely scroll away and are forced to watch MORE ads, or it glitches out and makes you watch another anyways. There are better weather apps in my opinion, but this one isn’t bad.

### 2/5 — Keeps glitching

*2026-03-06, version 6.1.601*

Keeps glitching

### 3/5 — Good info, the notifications are straight drama

*2026-02-17, version 6.1.302*

Title says it all. Nothing will shift your day like the weather app sending you a notification that the weather is going to be absolutely terrible at a future date. Will use for information, but notifications have to be turned off.

### 3/5 — Not happy

*2026-02-10, version 6.1.302*

I don’t care for this recent update. Especially the map. It shows the entire country. After adjusting to my location, that setting does not stay set. Each time I open the app, I have to change the map. Which is annoying. Didn’t have to do this before. And there are too many buttons. I liked the previous version much better.

### 3/5 — Content is great, ads make app glitch

*2025-07-01, version 5.17.511*

First of all, I understand that ads are necessary. But a 30 second ad for a 35 second weather update is a bit ridiculous. 

It’s also annoying that if you want to replay the content, you have to watch the ad again. 

Please fix that.

### 3/5 — Radar not accurate

*2025-06-23, version 5.17.511*

The radar hasn’t been accurate for quite some time.  Shows rain when it’s clear.

### 4/5 — Helpful, but so many ads

*2025-04-24, version 5.17.511*

The app is helpful for sure, but there are so many ads that if you need to load it in an area that has not so great reception, it won’t load anything at all. Not a great situation when storms are about to roll through.

### 4/5 — Storms and hurricanes

*2024-09-09, version 5.15.411*

Thanks for letting us know the updates on the storms! Without y’all here we wouldn’t know what’s going on!

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2026-06-27, version 6.2.512*

Non stop radar dysfunction. Constantly having to uninstall  and reinstall app to get radar back. 
Super frustrating.  
But when it works it’s great.  Sad it doesn’t work when I really need it too.

### 1/5 — Why??

*2026-04-04, version 6.1.601*

Is there anyway to negate this update that was forced on me. Cause as right now your app sucks.

### 1/5 — Map

*2026-01-11, version 6.1.302*

I hate the map feature since your latest update. Let me adjust to my location or area I’m traveling in and save the radius like before. Adjusting every time is only gonna make me delete it and find a new weather map.

### 1/5 — Maps

*2026-01-09, version 6.1.302*

After the latest update you ruined the map feature. I tap in it to see if anything is getting close and I see the whole usa. Bring the old maps back. I’ve already deleted your news app, don’t force me to delete the weather app. It WAS the best, not anymore.

### 1/5 — Bad

*2025-09-20, version 5.17.706*

It’s a piece of shoot

### 1/5 — It is never correct

*2025-09-01, version 5.17.706*

We went fishing and it said clear sky's so we went out and did it but it was pouring rain. Then a couple weeks later we went hunting and it said 10% chance and again it was down pouring.

### 1/5 — Not accurate and too many ads

*2025-06-03, version 5.17.511*

Way too many ads for a weather app

### 1/5 — Radar not correct

*2025-05-20, version 5.17.511*

radar says theres rain in my current location and theres no rain

### 1/5 — Ad Delivery App

*2025-01-10, version 5.17.509*

This app wasted so much of my phone’s resources, I never could find out the weather.  Video ad after video ad caused continuous rebuffs and freezing that I gave up in frustration. What a mess. I’d be willing to pay for a weather app minus ads, to avoid the incessant and annoying spam!

### 1/5 — Locations

*2024-07-11, version 5.15.402*

Unable to delete locations

### 5/5 — Works Well👍

*2025-05-28, version 5.17.511*

More accurate than I expected that it would be from the onset. Doesn’t lag when I’m watching the videos. Makes me think about getting rid of the Weather Channel app! Please put the CBS Eye back in your logo!
