Another app updated to make it "better" for no reason. You can no longer swipe between days, you have to click on the day and then click on day or night. The info about other days disappears if you scroll down. At least the radar seems to be the same and still work well, except on my tablet where the app doesn't even fill out the whole screen. The icon is now purple on the app screen and home screen not matching the actual icon. Why can't anyone just leave things that worked alone!

Terrible. This was a perfect weather app. Good information in a streamlined user interface. Now, it's so overloaded with ads and cumbersome to navigate. Too much clicking between day/night instead of the day/night on one page, can't easily scroll between the days. They're is barely enough weather info, we're supposed to get 1-2in of snow tonight, there's no accumulation amount! Please go back to how it was!

Absolutely hate the new version. The appearance along drives me crazy, but the function changes suck. My biggest function annoyance is that when I change the map on radar to light, it goes back to satellite every time. Won't stay on any settings I set. Been on this app as my go to weather since it came out. Now may switch finally after all these years. Another case of corporate over think that leads to poor outcome when making improvements. Ugh. Was it really broken & you needed to "fix" it?
