Can you please fix the sharing capability? I wanted to share the latest Wx report via text with my family who intends to drive into town. All I needed was the link to paste in a text. (No text option to share) The button for email didn’t work, and Twitter, FB and LinkedIn wanted me to log in before I could copy the link. I don’t want to log in manually since I have no intention of using the social media. AND once I got to the log in screen there was no ‘back’ or ‘close’ option to get out of there and back to the page I was on with the report. I had to go to menu and re-navigate to the page I was on each time. I just wanted a link, pretty please:)OKKK ETA- I was using the buttons under the video in my comments above, still valid issues. I just now found the icon that appears on the video itself before it starts playing, <, I got the link, but some cleanup efforts would be good, it was too hard to find.

With the latest upgrade to iOS 12.0 the VIPIR weather map does not stream the storm fronts as it used to in previous versions. I see the front as a still, but when I go to see the movement I get nothing, not even current conditions. iOS 12.0iPhone 6

This is a unique local weather app from a news station with and easy user interface. I don’t think the only weather updates there should be are for rain. If you want a complete weather alert system the user should be able to select snow, ice, extreme cold and heat. Can you take off all the news stuff and just have weather and weather news.

Videos hijack control of app

So many ads that I can watch my battery going down while numerous ads load and then when the ads change the article reloads and you have to wait again. Video articles have no way of closing them so you have to sit through commercials at both the beginning and end of the video unless you close the app itself. Weather radar seems to run 7-8 minutes behind so storms are already through before the radar shows them near you.
