User Reviews for Max Defender 8 Weather App
New max defender weather App.
I have used your weather app for years till this latest version which really doesn’t deserve even a one star. I think it’s time you either returned to the previous one which was the best coupled with the new radar. I am a retired NWA Pilot with 29 years of staring at Radars and until this new version you had a weather APP that was really good easy to use and second to none. I do not use it anymore I check once a week to see if you have finally admitted to your mistake and returned to the old one.The old saying don’t tamper with success certainly applies here. The amazing thing is surely somebody has looked at the reviews and if so why hasn’t something been done. All the weather people keep applauding the app how can that be.I now use Storm Radar which has at this point a great radar.You know making a mistake is one thing not correcting it is the real mistake and I can’t believe you continue to use this terrible new version. Go back to the old trusted version that put you number 1 across the Bay Area and Florida.
NEWS CHANNEL 8 WeatherMaxApp
I LOVED THE PREVIOUS APP.....the newly updated app is HORRIBLE. Hard to read. Only has live shots of teleprompter. Not user friendly. Cluttered like an advertisement not an actual interactive app. Radar not good at all. Not near as inclusive on layers or accuracy as it was in previous version. Please repost the old app because this new one so awful that I have deleted from phone and having to use the Weather Channel app:(((. I am a News Channel 8 customer all the way morning and evening.....sad that I cant use your app anymore!
iPad OS is only portrait, no landscape
Seriously? Do you think iPads are just big phones? We have to turn full sized iPads sideways just to see your weather app. While I don’t particularly like the iPhone version, this app is unusable on the iPad. I used this daily for weather updates and now I’m removing it from my device. Thing is, I’ll probably never know if you fix it because I won’t load it again just to find out.
The previous version was better
I used the previous version for years as my go to for weather. I was able to easily change the area I wanted the weather for, look for specific information without having to figure out where to look. This new version has to many graphics that makes it hard to read. I couldn’t figure out how to have access to different locations. I was unable to get the information I wanted. The changes made me, a loyal user for years, delete it, totally frustrated! I wish you hadn’t changed it!
Previous comments are true
I thought the comments might be from people who don’t like change or maybe have difficulty figuring out new developments. However I found that everyone of their comments is true about this version of the app. We are in the midst of a hurricane and I can’t find any tracking or forecast. On top of that there are so many ads it is ridiculous. I am uninstalling now. Listen to their comments.
Not Broke Don’t Fix
I really do not like this new weather app at all. Its predecessor was clean and uncluttered. When you paused it, it had the yellow squares for high wind, the blue diamonds for hail, the green circles for strong thunderstorms and lightning, and the red triangles for tornados. I loved those icons because you tapped on them and there was important information. If those things still exist in this new app, then someone is going to have to show me where, because I can’t find anything in this new one. I wished they would have just left well enough alone and kept the prior app. Thank goodness that the Sky Tower 13 weather app still uses the old format. I absolutely love it. As of today I have totally switched to Fox’s Sky Tower 13.
Unable to save options
I used to have a few cities I was interested in addition to ‘my current location’ but now when I remove them they return when I reopen the app. Also, the alert options, there are SO many not required for Florida, I feel should not default ON and again once I go through all of it to make my preferences, they are not saved. I had to turn off notifications which kinda defeats the purpose and now have removed the app. Until this is fixed. Hope it’s soon!
Don’t count on them in an emergency
This app is horrible. If you lost power and need updates in a hurricane, well you can find out about window vendors, or Experian, or any number of ads on this app. But actual news you need, live feeds of what is happening… Forget it! This app stinks. They say they are on your side. They are not. They give preference to advertisers and rich people who have internet connection somehow during a hurricane. The rest of us… not so much! They advertise “oh you can count on us in a storm.” What I can count on is a lot of advertisements and no live feeds when I’m in danger. I’ll pass.
Alerts for non-emergencies
I was awoken at 4:31 this morning by a dense fog alert. I knew I had better take immediate precautions to keep my family safe so I quickly got up, went out to my car, and turned the low beam headlights on. As I crawled back into bed, I was so grateful for this app warning me about the dense fog in such a timely manner. I promptly fell asleep... I wish that were the case. Instead my day started at 4:31. PLEASE fix the app to make it possible to sign up for which type of alerts you want. I can guarantee I won’t check off the box for “dense fog”!
Confused by bad reviews
I have an older iPhone 8 Plus and the app and radar has worked flawless. I haven’t had a single crash and it’s very accurate. I used the Weather Channels app for years but it isn’t accurate, I could be in the middle of a thunderstorm and the radar would show clear skies and not a cloud within miles. This app as of July 2021 is dead on with clouds and rain radar, I love it and almost didn’t download it from the bad reviews, maybe people have old phones or bad internet.
