## Review summary

Users praise NBC Connecticut for solid local reporting and reliable weather coverage when the app loads, with the weather team described as among the best locally and reporting considered informative. However, recurring issues center on the app’s instability and slow loading, frequent crashes, and weather data problems (outdated conditions, incomplete radar, missing precipitation details). Updates are seen as making the UI harder to use, with navigation and multi-location tracking criticized. Several reviewers also note that weather alerts disappeared after recent updates.
