### 1/5 — Impossible to gather weather info when you’re battling constant screen-blocking ads!

*2026-05-30, version 5.17.710*

This used to be the only weather  app I trusted and enjoyed. Best part? The weather blog. Then, somebody decided that they had to assault us with ads and I couldn’t get through two sentences of the blog without being visually slapped with an annoying pop up video. It’s beyond frustrating! It broke my heart to delete this app. I understand having to make money - no app is truly free - but for crying out loud, there’s no need for popups that cover the entire phone screen.

### 1/5 — Used to be good now all pop-ups

*2026-02-28, version 5.17.710*

It used to be a decent app. The weather blog was very helpful to read. Now you can’t scroll by it without some stupid goddamn video popping up. It’s absolutely worthless now. Whoever is the web developer ought to be shot

### 1/5 — New look

*2024-02-29, version 5.13.806*

You have to fix the new look on the main page that shows the temperature. 
 Underneath the temperature is the dew point and humidity. The dew point and humidity are only top of each other so I can’t read either of them 
 Please fix asap
Thanks

### 1/5 — Not working currently on IPAD

*2023-09-22, version 5.11.502*

May be due to upgrade to iOS 17, but not functional

### 2/5 — Good when it works!

*2023-09-18, version 5.11.502*

I have a lot of problems with this app simply not loading. I have had to redownload the app many times.

### 1/5 — Weather video not updated

*2022-08-17, version 5.4.949*

The embedded weather video has not been updated in six days, I count on this app for my Weather and this is unacceptable

### 1/5 — Piece of junk

*2022-08-02, version 5.4.949*

It’s totally unreliable app, more or less 100 % of the time their predictions are incorrect. The radar map is incorrect 100% of the time. Just got rid of this junk app

### 1/5 — Fix the Daily vs. hourly forecast

*2022-07-05, version 5.4.949*

Your daily forecast and your hourly forecasts are very different. The daily shouldn’t state that the high is 89° with a 20% chance of rain and the hourly states that the high will be 81° with a 65% chance of rain in the evening.

### 3/5 — Video always way behind now

*2022-06-23, version 5.4.949*

The app itself is great but video content old. They have a 6:00am new broadcast and they used to post that by 7 or 8 am. Now it’s the video from the previous day, usually 10pm but sometimes 4pm. Almost useless. Weekends forget it.

### 4/5 — Love the blog

*2021-02-06, version 5.1.601*

Being able to read the blog to get some nuance on the forecast is useful. While the video forecast is nice, sometimes video isn’t a good medium cause you don’t want to make noise or put on headphones. As a plow driver, I stick with 7 weather since the forecasts are solid and the blog is great. I wish the maps feature was still there so you could quickly pull up the “special” map for snowfall predictions or info about other weather events.
