This was absolutely my go-to app for local weather & news for years; however, the complete redesign a few months ago has made it almost unusable. The new design is clunky and inefficient. The landing page for the current weather only gives a 2 hour window instead of the entire day. Scrolling to the 10 day forecast lands at a full screen of the following day details first (none of which are weather by the way) and then you scroll to a condensed list for the remaining 8 days. All this and you still don’t know the immediate forecast for today or tomorrow. Who designed this? Please bring back the utility & ease of use of the previous v6 app.

The last 2-3 updates have completely made the app unusable. For pretext I set up my app to load in the weather section with what used to be a “live radar,” the NBC 5 radar. Since NBC DFW owns and operates their own radar it means that they are able to directly publish new radar data every minute. This is what brought me to the app, as nbc’s data will be the most updated and reliable source. About one or two updates ago some change made the radar almost unusable and seemed to inhibit the app refreshing and loading new data. The most recent update has actually made the app unusable, nothing is loading in! I constantly get a “URLSessionTask failed with error: The request timed out.” on my screen before the app can even load in one piece of data. I’ve forced the app closed multiple times to reopen it to no avail and have uninstalled twice now as well. NBC 5 your app just kept getting worse over time and you finally have tried to kill it. Hopefully your dev team can get stuff back on track.

P.s. like lots of other comments, GET RID OF THE ADS DURING BREAKING NEWS OR WEATHER EVENTS. K thx byeee.

I’m sitting here watching the NBC Townhall with Donald Trump and the moderator.
Savanah Guthrie has done nothing but talked and argued with Donald Trump instead of letting the audience ask questions which is what you’re suppose to do in a townhall! Even when the audience asks question and Donald Trump answers the questions, Samantha Guthrie interrupts him and starts going after him!! I will not watch your channel ever again! If you’re going to advertise that’s it’s a town hall then make the moderator stay out of it. She was ridiculous! Trump shut her down and made her look stupid and she looked totally biased and it was obvious she was a Biden surrogate!!! She is a joke as a reporter and journalist!!! I’m pulling my app and shutting it down! I will have Fox local app instead of NBC app.
NBC has forgotten that they are suppose to be fair and balanced!!! No way!!!
