User Reviews

Overall, users like the Channel 7 Weather brand and the information it provides, especially when it works. However, repeated issues overshadow the positives: heavy ads, laggy/incorrect radar visuals, a flood of notifications, reliability problems during severe weather, and a clunky UI. These recurring problems suggest a useful weather app that is hampered by monetization and technical/UI flaws.

Pros

Praise for the local Channel 7 News and Weather team / on-air staff
The app provides weather information and is valued by users when functioning
Users feel the app and information are strong and useful, especially for followers of Channel 7 News

Cons

Intrusive or excessive ads / advertising loading slows usage
Radar data issues including lag behind real-time weather and smoothing inaccuracies
Too many or irrelevant notifications / limited customization options
Reliability problems such as crashes and inconsistent performance during severe weather
Cumbersome UI/UX and navigation problems (confusing steps, reloading delays, inability to delete locations)

This is an upper management failure. This poor young lady is put in a position to be broadcast when she is struggling to communicate. She needs to be coached and recorded with a satisfactory rendition made as a broadcast. I’m not blaming her. If she aspires to this career she needs to improve her speaking. Management needs to groom her so that we the listening audience…your customers and sponsors get something of a professional product. This is not kosher during hurricane season for your station to put a product like I just witnessed on the market. I don’t want to be critical of her but she has a lot of work to do before I put trust in her words if I can comprehend them and that forecast. You guys should have edited that and it should have never made the air
