Ratings and Reviews
Great weather app
The KPRC 2 weather app is far superior to the app included with the iPhone. The ability to easily see the weather radar, and zoom in and out on it lets me accurately predict rain for my exact location for the next hour or two. And the ability to turn on/off layers such as lightning strikes is also a great feature.
I also have a few other locations across the country as favorites, allowing me to quickly see the weather in remote locations where my daughters live.
Great information
I like having quick access to current weather conditions through the maps and radar. I often use this app to check weather conditions before we leave to go swimming at the local pool.
If there is a way to remove the blue menu bar on the right side of the screen, that would really improve our use of this app. The menu bar obscures 20% of the viewing screen and contributes nothing to our understanding of the current conditions. If the menu bar could be removed while viewing the maps and radar feedback, that would be great. Maybe a swipe left or right to add or subtract the blue bar? Also, I don’t like moving ads on the screen. They are annoying and distracting. I realize you need to have ads to support the website, but the moving ads are irritating and counterproductive to many users.
Updates are great except when they’re not
The update feature is great. It’s a quick 3-4 paragraph snapshot of weather commentary on what’s coming our way. Frank is excellent at this and is always informative. Other weather folk have their own style but get the message across.
Then there’s those folks who think the update is tacit permission to say a few words about the weather and then refer you to their TV News broadcast later in the day for details. I’m checking the update before I head for work and “details from 4 to 7” is not a weather update. It’s a commercial for the broadcast and a waste of time. I thought this kind of lead in was a gimmick from the past.
Frank’s team should be better than this.
