Impossible to gather weather info when you’re battling constant screen-blocking ads!

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.

Used to be good now all pop-ups

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

New look

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

Not working currently on IPAD

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

Good when it works!

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

Weather video not updated

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

Piece of junk

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

Fix the Daily vs. hourly forecast

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.

Video always way behind now

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.

Love the blog

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.

Miss the maps

I really miss the maps tab which used to be on the app. I loved seeing the snowfall totals predicted (Special Map) and other info. This was the reason I choose this app over others. Please bring the map section back.

Bring back the local forecast maps

I relied on the local, not generic, 7 day forecast map often. The special maps were important as well. Without this the app is almost useless. I don’t need weather.com 7 day on your app.

Where did the maps go??

The important local angle (maps) was removed so there is no reason to choose this app over any other generic weather app. I'm really disappointed. Now I have to go back to the website for the actual forecast. I want more than a listing of temps with sun and cloud icons! Please bring back the special maps and 7 day forecast that used to be right up front. And don’t remove the blog, please!

Feedback

You say you guys value our feedback... Well here it goes!! I think this app is really great. But the set up is really off!! I think that the view of Boston should extend all the way down the screen instead of it being divided into sections. You have a VERY beautiful picture of the city and then you mess it up by cutting it off with another picture of clouds and then another picture of the complete weather forecast!! It’s a new year why don’t you guys go back to the drawing board and reinvent this app!! From the looks of your reviews... I think you should!!! ASAP!!

Upgraded today: unable to open

UPDATE: Still unable to open app since update:::::: Just see the 7 weather splash screen and it disappears. The app stays open, but closes out each time you tap on it:

Oops

After the latest update, will not launch on my IPhone 7 Plus.

What happened to this great app?

I used to depend on this app to give me up to date weather - especially the radar - now it never loads - or it freezes midstream. I have just deleted it from my phone - looking for something better now.

Worst app ever

Take a lesson from channel 5 app no problems with theirs. I deleted 7 weather app no one seems to fix it

Unusable

Channel 7 logo is in the way, font unreadable and an ad in the middle of it.

Closings

The old version had a drop down menu for a link to school closings. It was very convenient. Nothing on this one?!?! Why
