FOX 9 Weather – Radar & Alerts

response required

For a while now, I have not been able to go on the radar and view the specific page long details of certain watches or warnings that are issued in cities located around me. I remember I used to be able to do this....wish you’d all bring it back. It was nice to be able to simply go on the app and look at the more in depth details for areas I currently am not in. The only way now I can tap on specific watches or warnings to view the long page of details is only if my GPS indicates that I’m actually within range of whatever specific watch or warning I’m trying to view.

I’ve had this app for 6 years, and I loved it! However, this new update completely changed everything. This app is now terrible and annoying. The new layout is horrible and can be confusing. I wish I could change it back to the previous version because that version was simple, easy to use, and it worked well. Also they encourage you to turn on notifications so you know about severe weather updates in your area, however it also notifies you every time there’s a stupid weather headline (example- Monday morning snow caused 200 crashes on MN roads) and there is no way to turn those off and just receive the important severe weather warnings so you’re constantly getting stupid notifications that are nothing to be concerned about. So after having the app for 6 years, I am seriously considering deleting it. The new update killed this app!

This has been happening for at least 2 months. I use to love this app but now It won’t let me open it the first time. It takes a lot of try’s to get it to turn to landscape. I had to take my iPad in because it was acting slow. When the Apple person looked at my iPad it had the Fox 9 weather app as having problems. I will be looking for another Weather App because this one has too many bugs. Too bad, I really liked this one. This has been going on for 3 months. Please fix it!

I originally wrote: I use to like this app but now it comes up to this annoying guy talking about the weather rather than the radar. If I wanted to listen to someone talk I’d turn on the TV. I want the facts. I want the old app back! Thankfully, Fox 9 listened to its audience and has returned to a format that doesn’t force you to watch a video every time you open it.

I love this weather app, these are my favorite meteorologists. I didn’t, however, expect a man’s voice at 4 am telling me there was a winter storm warning as I was in a dead sleep. Once my heart rate came back down and I realized what it was, it was funny. So fair warning, a warning will result in a voice telling you something is wrong instead of a normal alert sound. 😂
