Bug fixes and performance improvements

User reviews

Radar screaming fast- can’t tell what will happen!

Latest upgrade has no positive additions that I can find, and the radar trace is so fast it is unusable.

Update went backwards in usability.

This update seems to cause emergency alerts to be very slow to post to the top of the page, and also removed the extended info about them from the bottom of the screen (at least I haven’t found them). The ability to create a map with overlays is clumsy, and you have to specifically select it each time you open it (my experience). Interesting that two supposedly competing weather stations have the exact same app, just rebranded.
Not liking the update.

Was Better

The app was better before you changed the radar map.

Skip this App

As usual, I come home from work-truck driver- it’s been a 16 hour day and I need to know tomorrows forecast. Silly me ! Not on this App!
I can get the NOON forecast but not a recent - say 6:00 pm- forecast. This happens ALL the time on channel 6. Skip this! Anything is better! Remember the “Magic Eight Ball”? It’s better then this!

Worst weather app ever!

If you are like me you are affected on a daily basis by the elements. I am a truck driver and also own a small farm. I HAVE to have an accurate forecast to plan my days. NOT HERE! Since I am rarely near a TV I rely heavily on video forecasts of local weather. You can get that here-MAYBE. The video portion rarely works and when it does the forecast is days or WEEKS old NEVER WORKS ON WEEKENDS NO MATTER HOW MANY TORNADOES THERE ARE. Save your life choose a different app!
