| 2023-06-22 |  | | Not at all what I was looking for. I love Weatherbug's maps and alerts, and I was hoping to have access to them with a button added to the toolbar. It added a button, but the button didn't do anything when I clicked on it. But when I opened a new tab, it turns our the app had hijacked my home page and set it to weatherbug.com. If you want an app that removes your new tab homepage and sends you to the same website every time you open a tab, then this is perfect for you. Otherwise, don't bother! | |

| 2022-08-26 |  | | I just removed the desktop version because it wouldn't load, however it's set to launch daily and does, but says I need to wait 15 seconds to refresh or allow it through my firewall, did both. Still doesn't work. Now, I just installed the Chrome Browser Extension thinking I'd eliminate the run around and have no problems but, it's the same thing, the extension button doesn't do anything. Doesn't work, literally nothing happens. sad to have to leave a review like this but WeatherBug has made major declines through both routes over the years and years of having it on desktop, now happening on the Chrome Browser Extension right off the bat. | |
