User Reviews

User reviews show the app provides quick forecasts and useful area-specific weather info, and can be effective for tracking hazardous weather. However, many users report reliability problems (crashes, slow open), a divisive redesign with a preference for the old version, confusing navigation and alert problems, and inconsistent radar/data accuracy. The strongest recurring themes are stability problems, UX/design backlash, and reliability of weather information.

Pros

Quick and reliable daily forecasts for planning.
Localized radar can be highly accurate for some locations.
Useful for tracking hazardous weather and staying informed when away from home.
Helpful for daily weather tracking and planning.

Cons

Frequent crashes and slow launch times; app reliability is poor.
Strong dissatisfaction with the new app version; users want the old version back due to usability issues.
Navigation and alert/locations issues; counter-intuitive UI, lost saved locations, and incorrect city alerts.
Inconsistent or inaccurate weather/radar data across locations.

Recent reviews

App crashes probably 50% of the time when initially trying to load. it basically opens and then just closes right away. if I open it back up it works fine. It's really not that big of a deal. Otherwise the app works great. The people saying it's hard to navigate the app must have other issues because it's pretty straight forward if you use common sense and give yourself 10 or 15 minutes to actually figure out where everything is.
