The Weather Network

1st review - 5 starsWorks great and your able to check your own local weather or to any city you might be traveling to. Use it every day. Receive updates and alerts for any changing conditions. 2nd review - 3 stars. Since an App update I am not liking the new version. It's harder to follow. Have to continuely tap on my location because The Follow me switch says is unavailable.

The old app was much better... The new one? Things are spaced out by ads. I thought i would get used to the new one but It's just too spotty, things seems to be misplaced and a lot of clicking before i get my info. This iPhone version happens to be better than this Android version.

Wastes screen real estate by putting so little info on such a large area. All information requires an unnecessary amount of user input to see. Rather than trying to be a really good weather app it fails at trying to be more and tries to make money off too many ads.

This app is like Apple of all weather apps. No freedom do customize what the user wants, it only lets you see what they want you to see and how you see it. For example, the widget only shows you next few hours forecasts, no option to change to daily. So in order to see more detail reports, you need to open the main app which takes time to load. Also the option menu has no control as to how you want the app to behave. It only lets you change the units and tracking control. I only still use this app because it has the best accuracy for Canadian weather. Otherwise, user friendliness is terrible.

It all depends which network you look at my tablet my TV or my computer, each one shows different weather forecasts for the same day. They all should be the same from The Weather Network, not 3 different forecasts.

Recently updated this app, and frankly wish i hadn't. Now too much scrolling & clicking to a long range for several locals. This seems to be intended for people who have lost their glasses!

The new ui is horrible. I don't understand why it was changed. The old version displayed all of the information I wanted to see, without having to go to 157,00 different tabs.

Everything is too choppy and spread out with ads. The blackberry version is amazingly simple and to the point. Just got an android and the app is terrible compared to blackberries.

Hate the new layout. I don't want to watch videos or look at photos. I just want the forecast. Stop trying to 'innovate' for the sake of more ad clicks and taps.

The new updated version is absolutely terrible, garbage. I've used Weather Network app previous for years, I want my old version back!! It was compact, quick info, not saturated with videos, pictures. Us long time users need a better updated version! !!!

This last update sucks , i dont get the info that i got in the old version. Going to find a different app that gives me what i need. Several months later i check this app and it seems to be getting worse instead of better. This app sucks!

I hope the hourly forecast widget is fixed. I rely on that at work. At least it appears the font problem on my phone has been fixed.

I had to delete this app because it was crashing a lot and causing slow downs on my s7. Up til recently it was my favorite weather app.

The weather info provided is okay but the layout is horrible. Uninstalled Becuase I found it annoying to navigate through the poorly placed ads and spread out info.

Horrible interface. Takes too much work to find any information with this refresh. Have fun wading through the ads to find the weather you need. Faster to just ask Google Assistant.

Since the new format this app is slow and less useful. I just want to see the 7 day forecast on the home screen like before.

It's just hard to get the info I want. It used to be good. Not sure why they made it less user friendly. And just less useful.

Good App, not ugly, tasteful ads. Slightly too much movement required to get to 3 day forecast. Movement from App to browser is clunky, everything should be in the app.

Decent App. The ads on the start screen slow it down so it doesn't start quickly. Flakes out sometimes, but the interface is good and it's as accurate as any weather App - which of course is not saying a lot.

I hated the new app more than anyone but once I learned you can just swipe sideways once you're in the forecast to change from 14 day to hourly to 36 hours it's actually a lot faster than the old app.

Could really improve using the while screen. Lots of wasted space

Very unimpressed with the size of the new weather alert notification. If it hadn't been for the radio, I would not have even noticed we had a severe storm warning

I think the accuracy of forecasts is way off for Vancouver, they say it's sunny or partly cloudy and it is grey or even raining. Some feet on the ground or look at environment Canada for updates before you put it on your website!

"I don't want to be entertained all the time, I want to be informed with accurate predictions so I can make plans. That's why I downloaded it in the first place" Unfortunately, still full of bugs and needs some tweaking, and the refresh feature seems to behave oddly or not at all, and some of the lines they use to advertise a video, sound like those fake ads you find on websites that just want you to click them so they can make a profit while misguiding your imagination (like clickbait). Other titles and such sound like they're turning into a reality tv show, or like they're advertising a product. I don't want to be "entertained" all the time, I want to be INFORMED with ACCURACY about the weather that I need to prepare for, so that I can make plans, and avoid dangerous situations. They are not longer reliable and professional. The predictions keep changing constantly, and sometimes they're very wrong, but then they quickly change their prediction last minute to make it SEEM LIKE they were right all along, and we were just mistaken. I'm not very fond of these last-minute changes to my daily and weekly plans. It also seems that whoever predicts the weather, is not passionate about his job, and just gives whatever prediction might make sense and is "good enough". I've been pretty forgiving these past couple years with TheWeatherNetwork, but now I've just run out of patience

Too many ads, features and videos. Not enough weather. The app is confusing when you just want to know the 3 day forecast

It is slow compared to what it was. Lots of useless things on first page, I don't want to look at pictures, I want the weather and some personal customization would be nice too.

If you could make it as easy to use as your app for BB10 it would be great. e.g. not as easy to get the 5 day forecast or animate through a day.

New app for Android phones is not as well organized. Have to do too many things to see weekly forecast

This used to be a good app but now it's terrible. The info is still good but the format is slow and way to spread out.

This app used to be great. 7 day forecast at a glance. The new layout is horrible

This app is good, but since it's recent update the widgit's follow me feature freezes. Please fix it as I rely on this feature when I travel!

Great, simple, used to be better until it changed. STOP CHANGING FEATURES YOU FOOLS. KEEP IT SIMPLE. KEEP IT THE SAME

Not always accurate, it could say 15km/h wind and when you go outside, theres no wind at all.

Eve since I updates my phone, the app and widget are constantly broken

This App is great! only 1 thing, the radar recently stopped working. Other than that, it is great!

Presentation of the page is terrible, confusing and not clearly giving a view of the daily 7 day forecast or long term forest. Too many panels and clutter everywhere.

This app lacks detailed reports of wind strengths and directions and has no marine weather reports. Living in a water based community makes these short comings problematic.

Hate this app since the update. Such a waste of space on the screen, hard to maneuver and so many clicks to get to the actual forcast that used to all be on one page.

Too many so called warnings and alerts for nothing. Too much sensationalism. It's regular weather 99% of the time but they act like it's the end times all the time. Today 4 warnings about fog! Oh no not fog!!!

My S7 handles the app like a charm. Not a single bit of lag or slowness. No problems.
