User Reviews

Users praise the app for accurate, informative local weather and timely alerts, but the experience is marred by heavy ads and significant location-related issues (saved locations removal, wrong default location, and mis-targeted alerts). Update-driven UI changes and occasional slower performance also stand out as recurring negatives. Overall, ad disruption and location accuracy challenges are the dominant recurring themes.

Pros

Accurate and informative local weather information.
Timely weather alerts for severe weather, which some users view as potentially life-saving.
Overall positive reception as a local-weather resource by some users.

Cons

Heavy, intrusive ads, including loud audio ads and long video ads at startup.
Location-related issues: inability to delete saved locations after updates, the app defaults to Toledo, Ohio, and alerts are not localized to the user’s actual area.
UI/design changes and update-related performance issues (new design disliked and slower downloads).

Recent reviews

Last update now prevents me from removing locations or update their alerts. Hoping for an update soon. I use it when I travel, list is growing!

I’ve had the app for a few years, always worked well for me. I believe with the most recent update that it has stopped allowing me to view the menu for saved locations longer than half a second, so I am not able to delete some locations as I intend to. A minor annoyance but bringing forward for awareness.
