Pretty Good

Its nice, but an iPad version would be ideal. Ive only seen this on a friends phone as there are no iPhones in the family. We only have iPads. Please make it happen. Would love to use your service. :3

Nice weather app.

This is one of the apps I used almost everyday. Only problem is it is not compatible with the most resent IOS update and no longer works.

Not to todays standards.

Very basic app. Gives you pictures like a sun or cloud. Radar is off. I had a TStorm go through and it showed light green on radar. Would recommend weather underground for real weather info.

Weather info seems inaccurate

Information is never up to date with their own live weather forecasts. They need to update their app info more often.

Great app

I like the audio alerts But even with the volume all the way up Its a little hard to hear Just need to crank up the Volume a little bit

Nice app, but shut off the location!

This app has a lot of nice features and looks and works great. But even after closing all of my open applications, my location is still being tracked. When I went to my privacy settings and looked under location, THIS APP was the source of my location always being tracked. Talk about battery drain and no privacy! I will be removing this app until this bug is fixed.

Great app

Looks great, works great, and after a quick run-through it seems very fast and responsive. Video loaded fast! The only CON is that the extended forecast is different than the new Action News App. Like completely different forecasts. UPDATE: Down from 5 stars to 3 stars. this thing is a battery hog. Deleting and will use weather in regular Action News app.

Pretty weak

Trying to put everything on mobile devices isnt working

Storm Tracker APP

Great APP! 6ABC is the best. The news staff sticks by product. I think its the best thing since slice bread. Keep up the good work 6ABC. What are you guys working on next? Whatever it might be. Its going to be another success.

Huge battery hog...

The App itself is great but it needs to be recoded. The constant location tracking is eating up battery life. An update is greatly needed to address this issue.

Great app

I love this app. I was in ocean city and my phone alerted me of an approaching storm. This will come in handy when Im on the beach. Ive been caught walking the beach when a storm approached out of nowhere in the past.

AWFUL Alert Sounds!

Good app, but are you kidding me with the alerts!? The alert noises are so not necessary. A simple beep would suffice. I do need to hear Cecily or Adam, or the ear piercing flood warning alarm.

Nice radar, Room for improvement.

Those who cant isolate the unnerving visible iPhone tracking symbol, the built-in "Follow Me Tracking" feature is ON by default for live location-based weather alerts. It can be turned off within the app. However, the battery drain is surprisingly unnoticeable. 1. Live radar useful in outdoor events. Includes Apples standard/satellite/hybrid map overlay with other customizable weather options. 2. Extended and hourly forecasts is a nice touch but NOAAs weather.gov forecasts are better. 3. Radar animation history too short. 4. No landscape mode. 5. Ads also a nuisance.

Crashes or doesnt load

This was a great app, just like the Channel 6 news itself, but it has continually crashes or fails to load up. I have to rely on the WeatherChannel App and dont want to. Please fix.

Love the app

Alerts me to the second of incoming storms and warnings! Thunder cracked at the pool exactly when my phone alerted! Brilliant!

❤❤❤

I love this app but can u please make an iPad version?

Disappointed

I think the 6 abc app is so much more helpful! This one is frustrating.

Battery drainer

I couldnt figure out why my battery has constantly been going dead. Then I realized that this app uses the location tracker 24/7. Deleted.

General contractor

I work around the weather all the time. this app locates me and allows to zoom down to street level and still shows radar moving. of all the apps this for me my far is the best

Better than the accu weather app but…

Why do you have your app track users 24/7? I had to go into settings and manually turn off my location services to it to get it to stop tracking me. I rate 2 stars for this app because I think an all-day tracking service is not what I want in a weather app. Change it to only having tracking active while the app is open and Ill change my rating to a higher star-value. Until then, 2 stars is what this app deserves in my opinion.
