## Review summary

Overall, reviews praise the app for accurate forecasts, reliable radar, and frequent use, including travel-friendly features and saved locations. However, multiple reviewers report downsides: a redesigned UI that feels congested and misbehaves, ongoing performance problems such as lag and freezing, and location accuracy issues (incorrect cities or location detection). Some mention limited regional coverage and occasional video playback or support issues. Addressing UI, stability, and location accuracy would broaden its appeal.

### Pros

- Accurate forecasts and up-to-date weather information.
- Strong radar and storm-tracking features.
- Very useful and frequently used app with current conditions and travel-friendly forecasts.
- Supports saving locations/favorites for quick access when traveling.

### Cons

- Location data and city matching are frequently inaccurate or unavailable, leading to wrong weather information.
- Performance and stability issues: sluggishness, freezing, and occasional failures to launch.
- User interface issues after redesign: congested screens and interactions that misinterpret taps.
