WUSA 9 WEATHER App Reviews

The latest update of this app is truly AWFUL! Messy and impossibly hard to read. I liked the old app very much but this is truly TERRIBLE! I will delete app!

This used to be my favorite weather app. However, the latest update is terrible! The fonts are tiny and difficult to read. The organization of information is not nearly as intuitive as it used to be... I hope WUSA will revert back to the old app format. It worked great! If not, Im going to have to find a new weather app!

This was my favorite app until the update! I cant even read it now! The color and font is terrible. Deleting...

This weather app used to be very great. But the latest update / complete redesign of the app is flawed so much that it is NOW DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY EVEN DEADLY! On the screen dedicated to the 10 day forecast, when you touch a day to expand it to read that days detailed forecast, some of the text gets cut off by the button for the next day. You may not even notice that part of the forecast is missing if the first word to be cut off is also the start of a new sentence. What makes this dangerous or potentially deadly is that the missing text could significantly change the contextual information for that days complete forecast and how it impacts your plans and travels. The day I noticed the incomplete forecast text, there was a prediction for precipitation overnight in the form rain, before possibly changing to either sleet or snow with accumulations varying from a trace to 5 inches in just the 20 miles between the areas where I live and work. But those accumulations and the possibility of any frozen precipitation kept changing and decreasing in that same 20 mile wide area so much in the 12 hours before the snow was expected to start that I kept checking this app on my phone. The app had just updated from the previous good version to the current flawed version the prior night. The updated apps detailed text forecast for the night the snow was to start said "80% rain precipitation staring after 10 pm. Later precipitation changing to wintery mix with lows in the"... Thats all it said. It stopped in mid sentence. Ive notice this problem of incomplete forecast sentences multiple times since then! People could possibly plan their days tasks or travel plans assuming that there wont be a significant change in the weathers and not be aware that temperatures could drop below freezing resulting in the possibility of driving bridges and roads covered in ice and/or snow, or affected by some other hazardous weather condition that they would factor into those plans.

Im deleting. Ive used this weather app for several years and now I HATE IT. HORRIBLE UPDATE. WHY mess up a good thing you idiots!!?

I am deleting this weather app. It used to be my favorite but now it is difficult to read and understand due to the layout.

Im not terribly upset like everyone else thats reviews the app. The home screen is better and the full screen map button is nice. Only real gripes I have are the background color is annoying and makes it hard to read the white text, but my biggest gripe is, from the home screen, when I touch a day that I want the forecast for it displays the next day automatically instead of the day I touched. i.e, if I touched Monday, then Tuesdays forecast shows up, if I scroll to the right and touch Thursday, then Fridays forecast opens up. Pretty annoying, Im sure its an easy programming fix, get on it. Overall I liked the original app better, but with a few bug fixes Im sure this app will be just as useful.

The new version is terrible

Hate the tiny words and tiny new format. All are condensed ridiculously for easy reference. Loved old format size and arrangement! WHY CHANGE IT?? Now Im looking for a new wea app, with clean, clear, easily readable, pleasant to the eye format. Grrrrrrr!!
