1. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Junk. Downloaded this app to get updates on the potential hurricane(s) coming through in the next week but can’t get a single video about the hurricanes to play. Ads play “wonderfully”!🙄

2. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

   Must watch Commercials before viewing Tornado WARNING. I just downloaded this app. Apparently I must watch a Google Ad before I can view the tornado warning that was just issued! No Thanks.

3. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Awful waste of time. Very confusing. Full of click bait.

4. ★★★★★slow performance and long loading times

   Slow to update forecast. Weekend forecasts not updated for many hours. Very poor on keeping folks informed.

5. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Advertisements galore. After getting through the adds it might be a o.k. App. Flustrating.

6. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Never consistent. Hourly degrees are never the same as daily degrees on the same day!!!

7. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Weather App. Everything is crammed on the app. It is poorly designed.

8. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

   Forecast temps inconsistent. App has daily high that will be plus or minus 10-15 deg from video forecast. They need to get it together...

9. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

   Get rid of audio ads too loud. Too many loud audio ads that interrupt forecasts

10. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    No sound for any of the Weather Alert Videos. The sound doesn’t work on any of the videos. I get the pop up stating click here for today’s forecast. The commercial plays and the sound works. However as soon as the weather person starts the forecast the sound stops.

11. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    Needs an update to fix issues.. Recently the app will no go past the intro/ad screen, other times it stays on the intro/ad screen for way too long. When you need a quick weather radar update, the last thing you want is a delay getting that information. There should be no intro/ad screen or at least the option to disable it and open straight to radar.

12. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    What happened...have hard time opening. I loved this app but in the last four to five weeks I might be able to pull up once every six or so days if I’m lucky. It’s very disappointing and frustrating. Please fix or go back to original. Using another local news app but like Live5Weather better....or use to.

13. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Video play. Good app but when trying to play videos....it pops up with a video error of some sort... please fix that...please and thank you 🙏🏽

14. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Constantly Crashes After Recent Update on 6.22.19. The app was working fine for me all before. I updated it on June 23 2019, and now it doesn’t open for me at all it automatically crashes right back to my Apple home screen. Please fix this glitch. It’s annoying. I have the iPhone XS Max and it’s software is updated. Not sure why the app all of a sudden will not work.

15. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Tornado warning... after this short ad.. Get your emergency information after advertisements.. Ridiculous.

16. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    What happened?. I used to love the live feed. Now, all it does is stream the commercial. No news or weather.

17. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    I don't live in Charlestown. Did the update and now it continues to say I love in Charlestown when I'm clearly an hr away!! Thanks now I need to find my location!

18. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Hate this app. It tells you over and over about warnings send it one time and that's it

19. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    New app is horrible. The last app worked great but this new update is terrible. Too much info is presented and it's done in a way that is not user friendly. I switched to the WCBD weather app, it's the same as the old one from channel 5.

20. ★★★★★an update broke a familiar workflow

    New version needs work. Constantly get network errors & the app crashing with the latest update. If I can get it to work, the app has to be closed from the background and relaunched every time. Hope the programmers are working all the bugs out because this is unusable currently. New format is ok, although I thought the old one was fine.

21. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Crashes!. App crashes each time I try and open it. Please fix. Thank you!

22. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Videos don’t play; Only ads. The live weather update videos do not play. It plays ads and then switches to the video, but it never plays! 🙄

23. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Watching a video. Well can’t actually watch any video, it doesn’t work!!

24. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Stop the ads. To many ads better off using a knock off weather app

25. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Fails to load. This app frequently fails to load. I shut down device and still doesn’t load. Storm Team 2 weather app loads just fine!

26. ★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors

    Latest Update (Reformat). The previous version was great, no need to fix what’s not broken! This reformat is completely horrible. Way to many adds and Live 5 spots compared to news articles. Visually you all are trying to cram to much stuff into one space.

27. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Better try next time. Good app when it works, god forbid you want to watch a video, the whole app crashes, plus it doesn’t work in landscape view. Also there is no back button, once you click on a window, that’s it, you have to close the app all the way down and restart it again.

28. ★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Ok. This app is horrendous. The map is detailed but the forecasts are lame. It's never accurate and makes me wonder what it is you guys do all day. I mean c'mon posting the same weather day after day is a little rediculous. Forecasts means an actual forecast.

29. ★★★★★mixed experience without a specific reason· unspecific

    Too much going on. Too many subcategories on the site. Distracting.

30. ★★★★★ads disrupt the experience

    OK. Way too many ads.
