LEX18 Storm Tracker Weather

The ads are back. I’m done. This is an update to my weather rock review submitted a few days ago (see below). You may only see it here but I’d like to believe someone has realized that the ad driven dissatisfaction of all recent reviews has resulted in change and this again becoming my go to weather app, for now. I was just getting comfortable with a different source for staying weather aware when I decided to check to see if our opinions mattered. I didn’t want to mention in my first review that the ads not only made me dislike the app but I would’ve never sought what was being marketed because of their role with what had become an unusable tool - I was being generous with 2 stars. Being pleased with the “fix”, I couldn’t leave my rating the way it was. I’ll give it another week at least. For now, thank you very much. Earlier review: Can’t touch the screen hardly without it playing the scripps advertisement. VERY ANNOYING! About to hang a rock outside my window and if it’s wet it’s raining, swaying then windy. Please stop.

I’ve used this app for years as I live in the area where WLEX is located. In its current iteration, it is all but unusable unless you want to constantly turn your phone sideways so you can push the “X” to close out the pop up videos that continue to interrupt the reason you have the app in the first place. I would just as soon pay for a version that’s ad free or use a different app going forward.

Now it has an ad that takes over when you look at radar and you can’t ever click off of it . Oh well on to the next weather app.

This app was a great little app until for some reason they put ads in every single time you change from the home tab to hourly, weekly or radar. At this point I’m better off using the NWS app or the basic weather app on my iPhone. Ad spam ruined this app for me.

Too many ads won’t show the radar without ads popping up.

Every since this past update there is an ad that comes after opening the app unfortunately for iPhone users to exit out isn’t possible can’t go back can’t finish add and continue you have to close app completely out

Even if you let the ad play when it’s done you don’t get the weather or it only shows on a tiny part of the screen. Sometimes the add will play over and over so you don’t get the weather at all. I am hoping you fix it. This used to be the best weather app. Now it’s the worst. I’m very disappointed.

I’m not sure what precipitated this change, but in the latest release of this app I keep getting video ads every time I go to look at the hourly or daily forecasts. Very intrusive and bothersome! I don’t mind ads in the flow of the page as I expect that. But these video ads need to go … especially since I didn’t click a fixed ad to see it.

They started playing ads on the app a week ago. They start about 5 seconds after opening app. Can’t even close the ad after it has played. App is now useless, I’ve deleted.

This app used to be good then they added unstoppable video ads! Find a better app you don’t want to watch a 20 second commercial every time you feel like glancing at the forecast
