  1. [R2] FOX Weather 5/5 · US 🎯: Especially accurate at the Local Level!!!!
  2. [R5] FOX Weather 5/5 · US Awesome weather channel: I use this weather app 10-20 a day. I’m a firemen and it give me what I need to stay safe everyday with what I should wear and care as backups!!!!
  3. [R7] FOX Weather 1/5 · US Worthless: The WORST WEATHER APP IN THE WORLD. IF TODAY IS MONDAY THESE WEATHER IDIOTS COULD NOT PREDICT THE NEXT DAY IS TUESDAY. BETTER OFF NOT PAYING $2.00 and placing a rock on the lawn or look up at the sky for a FAR MORE ACCURATE FORECAST. NOT WORTH 1 STAR.
  4. [R8] FOX Weather 4/5 · US Inaccurate: Weather channel app is more accurate and radar show additional hot of time
  5. [R1] FOX Weather 1/5 · US Do they use their own APP: Horrible. Whenever a story from Fox turns into a story from Fox Weather, I just close it. The APP takes up WAY too much screen, making it difficult, if not, impossible at times to scroll. You guys are are reaching, trying to get articles on the weather app. There is no need for this app.
  6. [R3] FOX Weather 3/5 · US Layout: Finding and adding towns/city. Extended 14 day forecast.
  7. [R4] FOX Weather 2/5 · US Poor map display: Your old display for weather fronts, storms and the like was very good
  8. [R9] FOX Weather 2/5 · US Story Links: Stories linked on Fox News go to weather home page, not the article. You have to scroll to find it.
  9. [R14] FOX Weather 4/5 · US Radar friendly: Quick view is used a lot
  10. [R19] FOX Weather 1/5 · US STOP with the vague article titles.: There are so interesting articles BUT…..stop the annoying vague titles like the one today indicating beaches in this state are closed due to fecal matter in the water. What state? I’m on the WEST COAST! Now ask me if I give a damn about a closed beach in Massachusetts? State the location in your title! Yeah yeah I know, you care more about clicks than your inte
  11. [R6] FOX Weather 3/5 · US Highly disruptive ads: Waay too much annoying advertising covering entire screen just to read basic information.
  12. [R17] FOX Weather 1/5 · US No Ads Please: Why all the constant advertisements? There are plenty of weather apps to choose from.
  13. [R22] FOX Weather 4/5 · US Days are not updated: Love the app but there are times that the day or times are not updated and they show yesterday times and I have to reboot my apple phone to correct it. I also paid for the no adds and I still get them.
  14. [R23] FOX Weather 1/5 · US Too many commercials: Too many commercials, too much meteorology education, not enough what when and where
  15. [R13] FOX Weather 2/5 · US Not the article: Fox weather has teaser notifications. I select a specific one and the “tease” doesn’t come up.
