The most recent app update seems to be missing something..... like the current weather! Clicking on hourly will show you what it will be in an hour, and daily shows you high and low info, but absolutely nothing shows you the current weather right now. It literally opens to a blank map, and the settings for the map view are also awful. You can turn on clouds and precipitation overlays so you can make an educated guess on the weather conditions. Or you can turn on the temperature overlay which gives a tiny circle showing the temp in each city. So that view is like a hundred little circles with numbers covering the map. Super helpful as well. What in the hell happened here?

I finally had to delete the app from my phone after putting up with terrible performance since I downloaded the app a few years ago. It would work fine for a period, then another update will download to “fix” bugs, which ends up crashing the app. It started with the app not fully loading so the daily and hourly forecasts would be blank. The last straw was when it decided not to load at all for several days in a row. It would freeze on the sponsor opening image and do nothing else. The same thing happened on my husband’s phone. I don’t recommend this app at all because it’s unreliable. When spring storm season rolls around again, I’ll find another weather app to get radar and weather alerts.

As other reviewers have mentioned, the default of every single type of weather alert automatically loading makes it so you can’t even see the precipitation on the radar. Yes you can remove them but you have to do it every time you re-open the app. You used to allow users to set their own preferences in alerts and overlays that would “stick” permanently until redefined by the user. Please bring back this functionality. I am going to use another app in the meantime because this new feature is so frustrating. It has been my go-to weather app for years. Very disappointed.
