User reviews

Very helpful

I don’t understand all the haters. This is a great app that provides accurate weather information in a timely manner. Easy to use.

Audio?

Where’s the audio? Why not alert your viewers that the audio isn’t working? I don’t read lips. Put a message on bottom of the screen.

Not friendly.

Very hard to navigate on iPhone. Not able to see everything I want to see. Needs larger print. Like the daily is so congested.
There’s more but I’m unable to think of it all right now.

No audio on weather videos - but is fine during ads

I have the issue of no audio when the weather videos are playing? The audio is fine when the ads play but shuts off when the weather video starts. This has happened since they came out with this separate weather app. I keep this app up-to-date and keep hoping it will get fixed. Suggestions?

Never works

The only thing I can hear are advertisements. I can never hear the weather reports
