Pretty good app.

Aaaaaaaaaaaamr

Just got this but so far so good. Kept us up to date on the latest winter storms. Hopefully works as good on summer storms. Seems to use a lot of battery. Would like to see road emergency levels if possible. Since last update it's terrible. Radar takes forever to load if it ever does. Right now its a waste of money. Thinking of finding something else. Will not advise friends and family to get this. Last update is useless. I live in a flood area and no longer receive audible warnings. As long as i am awake i know water is rising. If in bed guess i will just drown. Keep up the great updates and no one will be alive to buy your app. Why would i want a weather app that doesn't notify me. Hope a tornado warning is never issued at night. Think about us and not your pocket

Another bait & switch app

Paid for this app & snow cast a while back which was ok for the little use it gets & now they have changed it to monthly so will be deleting on principle due to bait n switch with no true grandfathering of past purchasers. Not worth monthly fee Imo based on how much I've used it though which is only during bad storms. Being a early paid user isn't a good thing when developers decide to change to new pricing making paid users purchases mean nothing. Geesh my sons a developer & he thinks ahead with pricing structure.

8 alerts in 24 hrs- not one with sound

Have always loved this app and then you updated it. I lost my 3 of my 6 saved locations in the update and had to reload them . BUT worse thing is that I have lost all sounds with my notifications. I have reported twice in support. No response. It is not any of my settings! Deleted and reloaded app. Tornados and floods where I live this week. App with no sound alert. Not much use for weather app. See other folks have reported same issue. See on the Feb 16th you say app is fine. I am headed to find a new app that sends sound alerts like this one used to do!

EW Scripps is a money hungry media outlet

We need to ignore all of their money hungry weather apps. Most of the info they make us pay for is free on other apps anyway. You just have know where to look. They have ripped us off with the other apps as well. They don’t have a separate weather provider. They are crooks and liars. Soon their apps will be an afterthought. They think their current users are dumb. Therefore thinking they can get away with charging us repeatedly even though we paid for the app. These app developers must have personal issues and take it out on current subscribers. Misleading the public is not a good way to do business.

Pay to see Future

I was disappointed to see that you now have pay to see future radar in this app.

Some annoying issues

Please tweak the location options like before. Uses a lot of battery and an annoying blue warning now appears. Not sure I can let it run all the time like before. Also, the app needs the location arrow to bring you back to your current location when you visit other places. Rearrange your locations would be nice and also a widget. Many features on the old version were better in my opinion. Update: latest version fixed the battery drain. Thanks for the fast update.

I’m Melting, I Don’t care

1.28.18 Wow, I bought this app over a year ago and now it is free. But you are asking me to pay for an upgrade to “future radar” and other options. I hope that is a mistake. Also remove the past & future radar from the middle of the app, Annoying.. Help with this would be appreciated considering I paid for this app. 2.3.18; So I get a response from the support people. However this developer needs to do their homework. There are plenty of “Free” apps that have Future Radar and do and have been doing what this app has finally gotten around to doing. But for those of us that paid anywhere from $2.99-$4.99 for this app should be treated different than the so-called free 3 month trial. We paid for this App and those additions should be given to those that have paid if not send us a refund. Because if not lots of people that paid will delete this app and go to The Weather Channel, AccuWeather, NWS, etc, etc. Hopefully this gets read by support and react to faithful subscribers..... 2.9.18: Well I received the same old response, not going to help customers at all. Give the same response about the 3 month free trial and then you can pay for the app Again... VERY VERY POOR POOR WAY TO TREAT CUSTOMERS..!!! If you had something that others had you may be able to have something, but you don’t, read 2.3.18 update, there are plenty of “FREE” weather apps that do all you offer now without paying for.. Suggestion to others—stay away and try back in 6 months when this developer figures out they have lost customers to other apps because of greed.!!! DELETE, DELETE, DELETE ??? 3.3.18 Nothing changed, still trying to hose customers. This app when buying used to be in the top 10, it goes somewhat free and it is now 38th. Word of mouth travels fast and hosing customers goes even faster. When will the developers of this app wake up..???

Subscriptions strike again

Jdigs88

It’s a shame. I bought the pro version of this app now they went subscription and I don’t have access to the features anymore. No one wants subscriptions for every app on their phone. It’s a bad model and I refuse to participate in a subscription economy. Think twice about putting your hard earned money down for a lazy developer every month. In my experience it encourages mediocrity in the developer and they enter a cycle of ignoring current customers in pursuit of new customers. Anyway you look at it subscriptions only benefit the developer.

The new version ruined it . . .

KangaMulligan

The new version makes me have to work harder to get easy information. They also want $ .99 Per Month to upgrade it so I can get information I was already getting in the old version. Ugh! If I remember right I paid around $12.00 to buy this app. I’m very disappointed and will be searching for an app that gives me what I want. The new version does not work for me.

Deleted!!!!

I paid $4.00 for this app and now you want me to pay monthly. No thank you! Moving on to something else.
