Great App!

I love this app use it all the time. The weather portion is great. I turned on the alert so I am up-to-date with any breaking news in my area.
I would love to see “a things to do” section I know there some here and there but I’d like to kind of like an event what’s going on in Pinellas and Hillsboro. Other than that it’s great I would download it as soon as possible.

Useless for weather radar for the whole day

I got this app because I thought it would provide an entire day’s radar forecast, it doesn’t do anything even worthwhile, you can only see what happened, which you already know! I’m guessing that Scripts has done what most greedy companies have done, and placed anything useful behind a “PAY WALL”, which for a broadcast company is the epitome of GREED. This app is useless for all practical purposes, and I’ll be deleting it after this review. I will also not be watching ABC-28 (or ANYTHING ABC) from now on. They present little more than propaganda anyway.

Completely useless when needed

There were tornadoes around my area so I tried to use this app to follow the weather from the safe place in my home.

Absolutely no live coverage overnight. Just the pre-recorded segments that had zero to do with what was happening live. Had to leave the bathroom repeatedly to get updates from the TV, and was doing this as the tornado was passing over my home. Luckily, it had lifted off the ground by that point, but me or my family could’ve been hurt.

This is just pre-recorded videos and advertisements. Mostly advertisements. This app is NOT a helpful tool in an emergency.
