Great after reinstalling

It was great, then I was interrupted every few seconds by full screen ads, then I reinstalled, then it was great again!

Constant full screen ads

It was great until today, when I was interrupted every few seconds by full screen ads

Radar malfunction

I had to DELETE then reload their app to get the radar to function. Even then it’s only about HALF as effective as other weather sites.

Better than the weather channel app

Love it

No Ads

I don’t think you should have such long ads to look at the weather Doppler especially if the app tells you there is severe thunderstorms or tornado watch.
