Your porformance

As always your report was very good!

Horrible new traffic update

I grew up in Richmond and love this app for its weather alerts and traffic map. However, after years and years of use I’m having to move on to another app. The new traffic update from a month ago only allows for you to view a small area around Richmond, not simply anywhere you. I use this when I travel all up and down the East coast. The actual traffic conditions and hazards don’t load, and even if it did it wouldn’t allow me to look beyond central Virginia anyway. That makes things tough for those of us who commute to NoVa. I hope this gets fixed but if not I’m using something else.

First Alert Weather 12

Fast Weather Update any time you need it.

Keeps shutting off Notifications!

New update is trash. Navigating the app is all different now! Radar jerks and jumps. No point for changing the lay out.

Grateful for channel 12 First Alert weather app

We have DISH and as of a few days ago, we no longer have channel 12. I am so glad I downloaded the 12/ first weather app. Especially today we were able to stay up on the severe weather updates. Thank you channel 12.
