Love it ❤
I used to really like this app but one recent glitch has me uninstalling it. That glitch is that it no longer follows my location, even though permissions are enabled. I travel very often throughout the province and I need to know the weather where I am actually at, not six cities away. Very frustrating, it just says "finding location please wait", and then times out. No thanks, there's other weather apps.
Widget stopped working
I like it
Can't find my location. Gets stuck on follow me. I have uninstalled and installed again and same issue. Running Android 11. This used to be my favourite app.
Works well, accurate results. Love the getting the advance severe weather warnings for the specific area im about to driving in so i can contemplate rescheduling my trip.
The follow me thing doesn't work most of the time and takes a long time to load
Location is broken. Keeps on trying to get location but fails. Other apps can but why can't this app do so?
Irma Global News fan and also I kind of getting sick of the false weather reports on the Weather Network app so here's hoping that this one's better and so far it is
After seeing a very biased post by global about the freedom rally based on racism when all races are present and on stage TOGETHER all global apps are deleted and zero support on phones, TV, apps or otherwise. We knows who pays your salary.
