FOX 4 Dallas-FTW: Weather

Not a fan of the latest update to the app interface. I miss the daily forecast at the bottom of the app when it loads. Thanks for the reply, but that’s not the daily forecast I was referring to. Plus, I don’t want to have to scroll down to find it. I want to see it quickly when I first open the app. I’m referring to the small bar that was at the bottom of the main screen (without having to scroll down) that had the highs & lows of each day & you could scroll to the right to see the days that didn’t fit on the screen. That was nice & convenient to be able to see a forecast summary.

Okay so I just got this app thinking...I am tired of just the weather with out a map! So I figured this app was going to be great!! So I get the app and I am trying to pin my location but this thing keeps popping up that says something about unable to pin your location and that you need to check your network and so on. Then it says cancel or retry I press retry. The same thing keeps popping up over and over and over again. I don’t know if it is my WiFi or something but it might be. So it is just really hard to pin your location well it is to me at least. Also I just pinned a random location and looked at all the stuff I really don’t like how you have to scroll down it just is kinda weird. But other than all of that I think this app is really good!!

I have used this app for over 5 years, probably closer to 7, and it has usually been my go to app for weather. But since the last few updates since about a year ago, it has a few wonky things that frustrate me. Many of those things have already been brought up. My biggest frustration has to do with the list that shows all my saved locations. It used to be that I could look up a location, rename it if I wish, then save it to the list. If at another time I wished to delete a few locations because my list was getting too long, I could do so. Now, since the last big updates within this past year, I can’t for the life of me figure out how to delete locations! My list is getting big enough that it is becoming difficult to find the location that I am looking for. Is this still a feature of the app? If it is, where is it? And if not, make it one again! So App Developer, have any advice?

I finally had to delete the app from my phone after putting up with terrible performance since I downloaded the app a few years ago. It would work fine for a period, then another update will download to “fix” bugs, which ends up crashing the app. It started with the app not fully loading so the daily and hourly forecasts would be blank. The last straw was when it decided not to load at all for several days in a row. It would freeze on the sponsor opening image and do nothing else. The same thing happened on my husband’s phone. I don’t recommend this app at all because it’s unreliable. When spring storm season rolls around again, I’ll find another weather app to get radar and weather alerts.

I have relied on WAPP for years as my weather location for DFW. This newest version is lousy. Personally, I do not need or want to see the cloud cover ... only the actual precipitation on the map. I have chosen “radar” and still get clouds AND rain shown ... for the past few times I have checked the app, it has shown no rain anywhere within the entire US. I find this rather difficult to believe ... especially since the forecast for DFW has included rain. Today, it has rained all day and all I am seeing is cloud cover when I can hear rain on my roof. Something is wrong here!!! Please go back to the old version that was reliable!
