The Weather Channel - Radar

Josh Armstrong

It's a good app but my phone blows up with "severe weather" notifications constantly and when I click on it, it says no alerts lol. At first, I wasn't really bothered, but we're in thunderstorm season now and it's getting a little ridiculous. I want severe weather alerts but it keeps telling me they're there when they're not.

BEWARE! Unless you pay for the subscription, they pop up notifications to watch videos about weather news across the country...MULTIPLE times per day. No way to turn this off. If I want to see weather news, I'll look it up, I don't need random notifications for things I don't care about. Also, the app itself is fairly clunky. Ads galore and hard to find info you want. Not user friendly. I'd give 0* if it was possible.

Every few months another change comes along that makes the app worse and worse, every. Single. Time. I haven't seen a single change in the last 4 years that made me say, "wow, that is so much better than it was before." Add all of that to what seems to be a fairly constant degradation in precipitation reliability over the past several years and what we're left with is an app barely deserving of 2 stars. I typically got better from newspaper forecasts in the 90s. Isn't weather tech improving?

Lost a star. Since 4/1/22 it struggles to open, it can't find the server! I'm connected to WiFi and have 4 bars but it just spins, saying connecting to server or asking me if I'm online. It's not my service because all other apps open. I did notice the issue of the ads interfering with the weather content is fixed, thank you. The ads are annoying but you still have work to do to convince me that this worth paying for. Deliver a reliable product and I'll pay to eliminate all the ads.

The application keeps crashing and when it's not crashing it's constantly buffering. I've tried restarting my phone and uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but it works intermittently. Whenever I restart my phone the app buffers and I use to be able to go through the playstore and open the app and it would be fine. Now, with the continuous updates it made it worse. When it works it's great, but then you have to put up with all the bugs that continues to plague it what's the use in using it.
