Widgets Removed

The widgets are no longer available for this app, which is a massive letdown. On top of that, it’s diminished so much in quality over the years. I wish the developers would listen and stop inflating the ratings. Most recent reviews are negative, yet it still sits at a 4.7 in the App Store. I will be going back to the main Apple weather app, but I hope something can be done here.

Awful Radar

Has to be the worst radar app out there. Weather data doesn’t even match what’s going on outside… this app has been unusable for a while now. Will be deleting.

From good to terrible

Amazes me that it’s had constant 1 star reviews since the change and it’s still rated good in the App Store. Another app developer that doesn’t listen to the users… how many people have to delete before bringing the old version back?

Well, this used to be a good app. The best around. Very easy to use. The new version is beyond terrible. I deleted it a few days after the update. I come back here to see if there are any updates to fixing this disaster and to see what people are saying. Still the same.

What was wrong with old app?

If you are going to continue with the new app can you please include the daily U V index. Nice to know ly that information.
How about getting more accurate?

Lately your app shows raining yet it is partly cloudy for example Need to update the forecast etc for more accuracy please

Radar settings not working

When I try to change the radar settings, the app shuts down.

Unusable

Like everyone else says, it used to work. Today i click on it and i get a rapid succession of weird ads. Every time i swipe one away another pops up in about 1 second. And the ads weird stuff like feet pics too. Used to be am excellent tool. Now it’s rendered unusable by ads.

Atrociously aggravating app

Possibly one of the worst app I have ever used. Used to be much simpler and much better app then about a year or so ago they decided to “upgrade” it and the app has completely gone down the toilet ever since. If you ever want to watch a forecast video you have to suffer through at least 2 minutes of full ads that are unskippable and then in the middle of the video if you decide to forward or rewind the video then it glitches again and makes you watch two more minutes of videos all over again. This app is so awful I’m blown away why or how it still has such positive reviews. Unbelievably bad.

1.64GB of Space?

There is absolutely no reason why this App needs to use up almost 2GB of storage.

Go back

Why 4 WARN?…do we need a warning for warm, beautiful weather? Please return to last version. Too busy, too much to navigate, bad radar track. Hourly and Daily aren’t easy to see. Make the graphics easier to read at a glance.Loved the old version. Now we use the other apps and miss your last design.

Bad change

The old version was so much easier to read and use. Radar doesn’t show the future path and have to push play every time. The daily and hourly aren’t quick to pull up or easy to read graphics. Too many things on one page, not simple.

Update since June, still useless

Update from June ruined this app. It used to be great. It’s now only a little better than a paperweight. Radar is terrible. Shows completely different forecasts than reputable competitors such as MyRadar and weather channel. Gives alerts for areas that are an hour away.

Not a good service

Not a good weather alert service nor trustworthy but neither are a lot of other free weather alert services I had on my devices to protect me when I am out in the community. This app I get the false alarms and the alerts lying to me saying lightning was decked in your area. Look outside and it’s bright and sunny outside and no thundering or lightning at all. It’s done this so many times and I’m sick and tired of it. A lot of these severe weather alert services should get fined every time for false alarms- it should be a Federal offense and it’s just as bad as kids pulling the fire alarms in buildings and then running out the door. To me it’s very similar and it totally is disruptive and causes panic when not needed. Fix your app or I’m deleting the app off my devices and going with a fully trustworthy severe weather alert app and service that will always be fully trustworthy and accurate.

Latest update causes problems on IPad

For some reason the radar doesn’t show future only what has passed so it is useless. I can’t add locations as only half the keyboard shows.

I can’t delete locations as that capability is no longer available. I’ve deleted app and reloaded but that didn’t help at all. Quite a disappointment!

Radar view is frustrating

With the new update, the radar will not show any future predictions and really will not move on its own unless hitting the play button. I’m not sure why 4warn thought this was an improvement. Maybe just a cost save for their app. Currently looking for other radar apps to replace this.

☀️

Love this app. I use it on the daily. A great addition to this app would be to show what the UV index is. Just a suggestion. Thanks!

Radar

I agree with all these others! What happened to the future radar!!!???

Radar no longer beneficial

This last update changed the radar from previous 2-3 hours, current and up to two hours in the future. Now it only share very little within last two hours and current radar. It does not give any future radar. Needless to say this is very very frustrating and doesn’t help plan my day or at least the next few hours at all can you change it back or somehow enhance what was and change the radar in the app. Thank you.

Useless

They only show you the last two hours up till now. What is the point of me knowing the weather from 2 hours ago???

Radar

What happened to the radar? You can only see where it’s been and where it is now, not where it’s going. What is the point of radar then? We just have to guess what’s going to hit and when?

Uses ridiculous amount of cellular data

Ever since this app received a major update in 2023 or 2024 it has been using obscene amounts of cellular data. How bad? 14.1 GB vs 1.01 GB for the second highest app. I never open the app while away from home. All the data it uses is while in the background.
I emailed support and have not received any response. Likely going to remove the app. My streaming apps such as Spotify and SiriusXM use only approximately 47% as much data.
Totally unacceptable.
