## Most critical reviews (5 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Worst weather app ever

*2016-02-03, version 3*

This app is poorly formatted and lacks the interactive function of other apps. It looks like a beta version which was released before final cleanup. Radar doesn't stream, and it's default is the center of the state instead of your current location. Don't bother. There are too many well done apps for weather to self induce this frustration.

### 1/5 — Really bad app

*2015-11-05, version 2.13.0*

I like the network but the app is really bad. It hasn't updated any news at all since July. I'm sending it to the cloud.

### 1/5 — Won't update

*2015-08-31, version 2.12.0*

Still shows articles from July 24 2015 and today is August 31 2015.

### 3/5 — Sports news isn't breaking news

*2016-06-11, version 8*

If you want lots of breaking news alerts about sports then this app has them. If you do not, I couldn't find any settings to allow you to stop just them. 

I appreciate that some people want alerts for sports but many do not, just like I want stock market alerts that others would not. Please either update the app to allow setting the category of alerts or limit them to general news and not sports. Thanks.

### 4/5 — Not bad but needs some work

*2014-01-31, version 1.36.0*

Closes randomly but it's a new app so there is going to be a few bugs
