Ratings and Reviews
Live Stream
I enjoy the app but I SHOULD NOT have to go to Facebook to watch a tornado warning that’s effecting my area. I went to the weather app to watch James Spann and see the weather alert and there is NO live stream of the the weather. I can’t get anything in tv and have to stream it through Facebook. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND NOW!!! I’m only giving it 3 stars because it’s still a good app but you need to work on the live stream! I am upset as I am not able to find any info on potential tornadoes in my area except on freaking Facebook!
SPAM & NO LIVE VIDEO
This “WEATHER” app spams you with notifications that aren’t even weather related—EVEN when you turn off “Station Notifications” from your local TV station.
Most of the other notifications that ARE actually weather related don’t have anything to do with warning you in the event of severe weather. I don’t need the app to tell me it’s going to be a bright, sunny day or that storms happened yesterday... Eleven or more irrelevant notifications a day from this one app make me want to turn off ALL the notifications, which would of course make it where I wouldn’t get the important, lifesaving ones when needed.
What would really make this app better, in addition to fixing the above, would be to make the load time faster (the splash screen stays on for too long) and to put the LIVE weather videos with James Spann on the app. Otherwise, what’s the point of having an app? I can get NOAA alerts from other apps. There were no video updates for 5+ hours on the recent deadly storm situation the other day as the situation started to get bad and after live videos ELSEWHERE already had been giving detailed info on the potential tornadoes that were popping up all over the map. If I hadn’t gotten my weather info FROM SOMEWHERE ELSE, I could have been in real trouble that day. Please add LIVE videos to the app as severe weather is being covered. Thank you!
Stations should hold these creators to account
This is a highly necessary and useful app that has been hijacked by it’s creators/maintainers, absolutely debilitating this fantastic weather team.
1. This app freezes devices. One must shut down and restart their device to even get it to open temporarily.
2. The current is not current. Just one example: often outside your window will be utterly overcast (not foggy)with zero clouds on the map. Not all clouds show and it is difficult to discern clouds from fog.
3. Fire? Don’t see it as an option. Why? Large wildfires should be visible on radar, no?
4. There is too much parsing of info on radar.
5. There are not enough options for necessary information.
I have seen and experienced the same on other stations’ apps who use the same radars. In this particular case, James Spann has saved countless lives in his weather reporting. In this station’s area it can be critical to survival to pay close attention and have the latest information; the purpose of this app. It is a shame to see this weather team, this critical info, and the viewers who rely upon it so seriously hampered by the actions of the creators of this app.
