Do yourself a favor and get WICS or FOX or WCIA’s app because this has full screen ads that deploy and block view for seconds when trying to navigate. This app had banner ads at one time, but then they decided to deploy full screen ads that prevent usage until you click it or they expire. In an app that you use in emergency situations this is absolutely not ideal, in fact, I find it rather gross. I swear I wrote a review about this the other day, yet now I can’t find it. I was going to update the original review to include alternatives that offer the same content but without the full screen ads, but I can’t find it; so I’m writing another review to let people know they can get the exact same functionality without using this app.

The latest update is terribly hard to read. I loved the app before this update. I don’t mind the new scrolling feature, but the font color is too light. And I liked the old format for the weekly forecast (left to right instead of up and down). Please make some changes quick, before I get used to another app!

This used to be our favorite weather app. Please put it back to the way it was 2 versions ago. The all-in-one scrolling content is annoying. Forecast video should be an option, not a standard feature (we never use it). The light-colored map is much worse than the old darker one. The white text on gray and white clouds is very hard to read. If you have to keep that awful new look, at least give users the ability to customize which screen (i.e. the map) comes up by default.
