**Cons**

- 🐛 App Barely Provides Relevant Details Now
- 🐛 Used to be the best until the update.
- 🐛 Bad fix
- 🔍 Gets the job done into keeping you up to date with what's going on!!!
- 🔍 Only issue is that when you zoom in on a map you just a fuzzy crop of the original map.
- 🎨 Change Colors

**Commonly reported bugs**

- App doesn't work right anymore.
- Finding out when a hurricane is coming, its Category and finally its strength is imperative. Being prepared can mean the difference between life and death.

**Most requested features**

- Update your weather maps. They all are 3 to 4 years old.
- You should update your app and remove the storm that has been there for a month.
- I should not need to tap on the images to make them zoomable, it needs more images showing rainfall, wind, etc., needs animated images, weather videos and news, past storm trajectory, animated graphics, etc.
- I would like to be able to see a map of where all are as I sometimes have to click all to locate the storm
- The idea here is fabulous! It would be so much more if you had a time line on the radar feature.

### 2/5 — Used to be the best until the update.

*2024-10-10*

I have bragged about this app for years, until today. I never should have updated the app. PLEASE undo what you’ve done and bring back the app prior to this horrible update. I’ll give some time - but if not, I’m deleting. If it’s not broken, why did you feel the need to fix it? Newer isn’t always better.

### 3/5 — Review

*2024-10-09, version 5.16*

I feel that there should be a little bit more information maybe some video detailed information!! Definitely should be a bigger app thin what it is!!

### 3/5 — Crashing

*2024-10-08, version 5.16*

The app is good until you enlarge a map, then it crashes.

### 3/5 — Disappointed in upgrade

*2024-09-10, version 5.16*

Not impressed by the new upgraded version! The old program was way better.

### 4/5 — Why the change

*2024-08-13, version 5.14*

I preferred the previous app.

### 2/5 — Local.?

*2024-08-09, version 5.14*

Local doesn't mean 300 to 700 miles away!!!

### 4/5 — Needs work

*2024-07-30, version 5.14*

App is ok but when you tap on TRACKER at the bottom, the app force closes every time. 
PLEASE FIX!!

### 2/5 — Map changes

*2024-06-24, version 5.11*

This had always been my go to app for hurricanes living in north central Florida. But, the change to a more global view map rather then a standard hurricane map has made the map view useless. Sorry, but I found a similar app with the useful map views that weee on this app. Deleting this app.

### 5/5 — Hurricane

*2024-06-18, version 5.11*

Great app!!

### 5/5 — Hurricane app

*2024-06-11, version 5.11*

I love this app as it helps us with hurricanes approaching our area!  I would advise others to keep this app as it helps with all storms and situations!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — App Barely Provides Relevant Details Now

*2024-10-11*

Recent changes in the app show less & less details about current.  More storms and low pressure systems than are out there than are being reported.
Data is inconsistent between the tracker and tropics screenshot.
The quality of this app has greatly decreased and is no longer reliable.  It used to be my go to, now I use it as a truth gauge & find most times data is obscured. Time to go back to the drawing board!

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-09-26, version 5.16*

So much for using this app to track hurricane Helene. It’s 5pm Thursday and last update is dated 10pm Wednesday. Hope no one is making decisions based on it. Used to be the best, but not anymore. Sad.

### 1/5 — Not an improvement

*2024-09-24, version 5.16*

Please put it back the way it used to be. I used to use it every day. Now I don’t.  I’m looking for a new app that works.

### 1/5 — Owner operator

*2024-09-14, version 5.16*

I like the old app a lot better. The new app is not good.

### 1/5 — Deleted this app

*2024-08-11, version 5.14*

Your previous version was great. You made changes and screwed it up. Deleted

### 1/5 — You ruined all weather apps now

*2024-08-03, version 5.14*

Why did you ruin this app too. You crapped up the regular weather app with everything but weather. Now you took the hurricane and best radar app and totally ruined it? Why???? I’m watching another local station now, lost all hope in this channel and app. So sad…..

### 1/5 — NOT EVERYONE VIEWS IN PORTRAIT

*2024-07-29, version 5.14*

I use an iPad with a keyboard.  I don’t use apps that don’t let me read in landscape.  I came here today on the off chance that you’ve fixed this. It stinks. And so does the newest version of the WJXT weather app (it actually rotates in front of me to portrait).  I’ve stopped using these apps and only use weather channel on my iPad.  Not good.

### 1/5 — Radar is broken

*2024-07-20, version 5.14*

You used to have the most up to the minute radar. Then an update changed the format which was awful. 
Newest update doesn’t even open the radar portion. 
Plus the tropics map is too focused on the Atlantic Ocean. Can barely see the Gulf of Mexico.

### 1/5 — You broke the app

*2024-07-12, version 5.13*

I don’t what you did to this app but the radar is pure garbage now. Not to mention you got rid of the future cast radar. Gonna look for a better app. SMH

### 1/5 — Review

*2024-07-04, version 5.13*

And occasional update is fine but not every time I pick up my phone

### 5/5 — Easy to Understand

*2024-11-02*

This is my favorite hurricane tracking app because all the information you need is in one place & in multiple formats. It is always my go to.

### 5/5 — Lenny

*2024-11-02, version 5.16*

*2024-10-20, version 5.16*

### 5/5 — New radar

*2024-10-04, version 5.16*

I can’t stand this new radar screen. Put back like it was, please. My husband hates it as well.

Love it

### 5/5 — Weather

*2024-06-29, version 5.12*

Terrified….. already 2011 EF-5 tornado in Joplin, Mo. My fear factor is Panic State about hurricane. Trying to stay informed which this channel does, but doesn’t decrease my fear.
