They ruined it.. Now when they send you a severe weather warning and you click on the warning for the details, it sends you to a video (with an ad) you have to wait for. Before you could just click the warning and READ the information quickly to see if it was pertinent for your area and have time to take action. What an absolute joke of an app now. Moving elsewhere.

Something Changed. I used to rely heavily upon this app for my daily Weather checks as well as severe weather updates. Over the last month or so I noticed that it rarely functions properly. We recently had some severe weather come through my area and the app provided little to no information. The radar showed absolutely nothing and was not functioning. Not sure what changes were made recently, but I’m definitely uninstalling and choosing something more reliable.

Interrupts phone calls. I am deleting this app today! This app keeps interrupting my phone calls over and over and you cannot hear the other person speaking! It could be your father’s last dying breath and words, and it will interrupt what they are saying and you can never get that back again! I am over this!

🤬. Thanks for waking me at 3 am to let me know that there is a frost advisory in my area!

Forecast. Today was not at all what you forecasted so I would give 0 stars but it made me give you one!

Awful. White on blue letters are awful

Update issues. ..... and now unless you buy into the iphone new device every six month madness, this app no longer supports most previous IOS

Bad update. The app was great before the update. It is no longer user friendly and difficult to navigate.

Won’t work half the time. Since the new update it says I need to connect to WiFi when I open the app or error failed. I have to reboot my phone to get it to work. Not very useful

Bring back old design. Terrible revamp. Always a network error so I can’t view current forecast. It was much easier when you could just click the day and the hourly forecast popped out to the side. The older version was much more user friendly. And where’s the videos???

Newer not better. Earl April downloaded the update as old version going away. What a mistake. Would have been better just to delete the app, as most of the features I loved, like hourly rain probability using icons, local radar, easy navigation are gone, ads moved to center of screen. Right now it is just taking up memory. You can do better with a different weather app. Adios!

New version of Wsoc Weather app. App is too busy and difficult to navigate. I would like to have the previous version.

Review. Want the old format back!! New format not user friendly When type in Hilton head only get a map and not weekly weather forecast
★★★★★negative experience without a specific reason· unspecific
Ugh!. Horrible revamp. All my data is missing. How do you see rain on a green map. Bring back the old one.

Leave well enough alone!. 3/29/19 Just opened the app this morning only to find the new version. I use this app daily for local weather as well as for travel forecasts & conditions. First, I had to reload all of my locations. Then I tried the radar....really, trying to read “green” (rain) on the green map background is ridiculous! On the home page, reading white text on a white clouds background is nearly impossible! I liked it when I could pick up my iPad & easily & quickly check weather conditions and/or forecasts. It is way too cumbersome so I am now looking for a better weather app!

To many ads. Ads keep popping up to the point I don’t even have time to scroll through the weather it’s very annoying
★★★★★an update broke a familiar workflow
Crashes. After latest update app crashes immediately. A delete and reinstall does not fix the problem. I loved the app before the update.

Will not open. Just tried to open app, but it failed. Reinstalled, but still crashes immediately.
★★★★★an update broke a familiar workflow
Terrible. I really liked this app from the start, but with every update it gets worse and worse. I am trying to find one I like so I can delete this one.
★★★★★slow performance and long loading times
Last update is terrible. App was great. Now too slow & too much resources used. No problem with the old app. Wish I had never updated.

Completely useless. A rock could predict weather better than this app. The radar is overrated and in no way shows what is really happened or real predictions. If you want to know the weather just look at this app and go the oppostie direction. Such a horrible weather app
★★★★★saving, exporting or sharing the result fails
Not Worth Downloading. This app doesn't work well. Radar is not even close and the app closes by itself all the time.
★★★★★saving, exporting or sharing the result fails
Can't open.. I downloaded this but the app didn't show up. From the start I can't open the 9 app.

Crashes. This app worked OK until the recent (July 18) update. Now it will not load -- crashes and returns to menu screen
★★★★★a forecast that contradicts the sky outside cancels everything else
The worst ever. Tried to install this. It got stuck after 20 seconds. Won't install, can't delete. No amount of re-setting, re-booting etc. will fix. It blocks everything else. NIGHTMARE!!!
★★★★★crashes, freezes and errors
when you need it /CRASH/. We may get ice... can I find out ?? nope because this app crashes every time you hit " forecast" what's the use of that ? deleted.... sigh
