Recent updates have caused the app to freeze or crash devices, leading to frustration. Some UI elements hinder readability. Despite long-time users valuing the app, these recurring issues negatively impact the overall experience.

Cons

Excessive and intrusive advertising, especially inappropriate audio and video ads.
Frequent issues with video forecasts and other features not loading or working properly.
Problems with weather radar maps not accurately reflecting current conditions.

User interface issues such as overlays making temperature readings hard to see, and slow or unresponsive loading.

The app is ok but is not responsive a lot when I first open it and have to wait several minutes before it gives me the option to wait or to close the app. After I choose to close the app it usually opens fine. It's really annoying when I just want to get a quick look at the days weather and have to wait several minutes. Perhaps I'll download the 21alive weather app instead.
