Hangs GPS constantly!

I downloaded this app and it uses the GPS constantly (Per the purple icon in privacy settings) even after you close the app which drains the battery so its a thumbs down for me. Avoid at all costs unless you dont mind a dead battery.

Uses GPS even after being closed

Uses the GPS constantly, even after Ive exited out of the app. I already dislike apps that need to know where I am "always" and not just while the app is active, but why the eff are you still using my location after Ive closed you?!

This app needs a lot of work. It looks like something a first year college student would of designed.

Slow

It was slow for our iPhones, Now that they changed it, It locks up most of the time. Not worth having!

Works Good

Its helps my kids and tells a lot of information

My "Go To" weather app!

I used to use the Weather Channel app every day but this one is much better for me. The only issue I had is the voice reading the alert. It needs to have an on/off feature as I check my app at night and its to loud (my volume is up for my alarm)! I did contact their tech support and was shocked to get help within like 10 minutes. They followed up until I was happy and suggested not using the alert thru the push notification. That worked! I have had NO issues with freezing up or loading. I tend to think those issues are the phones fault not really the app. If I could make a suggestion, I would like to add more locations. I am only allowed 3 and thats not enough! But overall 5 ⭐️ app!!!

What happened?

The app was great, then every update it got worse. Now no videos work its frustrating.

Video?

I cant get videos at all, it just keeps loading , this app is terrible, Im just going to use the 6abc app at least I can watch video on that one!

Attention Developers... ALMOST excellent...

ALMOST, an excellent app... Extremely useful, being an OTR Driver... We can see the storms easily, to avoid them... Keeping the roads safer, for everybody. My main issue is... Ive been using the app, for a coupla years.. Wheres the landscape view, for iPhone 6 Plus users??? It would go along beautifully, with the latest update. And... No night-time setting? The day-time brightness on the display at night, is BLINDING... And DANGEROUS!!! Should switch to night-view automatically, or at least have a button to switch. Safety first. App wont be excellent, until...

Come on, really?

Cant understand the difference in the forecasts on this app as compared to the actual news broadcast on TV. Have to turn off notifications as they are too constant and annoying. App must have been developed by the same people who do the news app. Time to get some real software developers!

Temp icon

A temperature icon would be a great feature. This would help when on the move and all I need to know is how warm or cold it is.
