I can’t find my last review so that I can downgrade it. I am sick and tired of this formerly good app freezing on a regular basis. It has gotten to the point that I have also downloaded a rival station’s (WBRZ’s) weather app so that I can have a dependable, local weather app. I’m about at the point of deleting WAFB’s weather app freezes so much that has become trash. The only reason that I haven’t done so yet is that I keep hoping that the app will be updated to correct this malfunction. I am beginning to wonder if the person in charge of this is asleep at the wheel.
Since the latest update have been having intermittent issues with app freezing when trying to open. Looks like it needs another bug update
I just wish the developers of this app would make widgets for it. I only trust WAFB WX as my source for weather and to have a Home Screen widget that I could just glance at for current temp and low temp that would be a 5 star move. Thanks in advance.
When I click on this app, I have to look at a picture of the channel 9 weather folks before I get the weather. Then I get to look around ads for the weather. A notification box comes up on the screen of my phone, but when I click on it I get to wait until something that looks like weather loads. Usually I’m unable to find out what the notification was because it’s a video that won’t load, not that I want to wait to see that any way. This station has a commercial that talks about the folks in Atlanta and how they don’t know our weather. But when I click on that app, the weather comes right up. I don’t have to look at the icons of the channel 9 weather crew. Imagine that. I’m very disappointed with this app.
This new update is TERRIBLE! I will be using a different app until this is resolved. This makes the radar 1) look majorly outdated, 2) difficult to see the precipitation because the watches and warnings are not transparent enough, and 3) look confusing because severe thunderstorm warnings are red and not yellow like TV and every other resource. It is a completely terrible update.
Clunky is not the wird. Something recently changed. I can no longer rewind or forward through a forecast video to see pertinent details, a critical thing during a forecast for active severe weather. If i try to rewind at all to see storm eta for my location, video starts over including the annoying 15-30 second ads i have already seen. If I’ve already watch the ad for the video i should be about to do a little relevant slowing and speeding.That your app support link goes to a 404 makes it clear you’re not thinking about your audience. Guess i’ll have to move on.
My biggest complaint is waiting for the app to load and having to look at the same picture routinely. Then if you decide to check something else after just logging out, you have to go thru the same thing again, even if only out for an instant. The other thing that drives me crazy is the infomercial they constantly do for it when you’re watching the darn weather on their newscast!
The new update needs an update! I have to go into the help menu to figure out everything! But if I had to pick one thing that changes it would be to put the location dot back on the map!!! I HATE that this has been removed! I like that I didn’t have to zoom into street view to see how close the bad weather is to my exact location. I’m on the road making multiple stops for work and on bad weather days I am always using the app before I leave a location to see what I’m going to be driving into. Please fix this!
Videos need improvement Can’t look at videos sideways and flat, have to turn phone sideways and hold it like binoculars to keep video from flipping back
Really really badly needs work on the UI its very clunky and hard to use needs a bunch of bug fixes to for the last month i havent even been able to open the app it kicks me off every time, i like the notifications and all but please fix the UI it is so god awful
