Crashes
during these storms at the time we need it most this app keeps crashing had to delete & get something else Do BETTER Fox26!!!
Bad update to 5.8.411
Since the latest update (5.8.411) has come out, significant issues have started. The most significant is the radar renderings will blink on but mostly stays off when you open the app without killing the app after the prior use. The only fix I’ve found is to kill the app and relaunch it every time I want to look at radar. More than a little annoying.
Why this FOX app not like it used to be?
I’ve used this app for many years but in the last 3-6 months is not as reliable. I recently deleted it and reloaded; still not functioning well. The radar isn’t up to date compared to ABC channel 13 radar or National Weather Radar. It also flashes and will not show all the thunderstorm cells/rain, but there will be storm tracks and lightning symbols all over. It’s just not reliable anymore.

Terrible
Not sure why the app has to reload every time you open in. Could be a second or a month. It takes forever to open. Then while you’re there, it gives the most inaccurate “forecast” if you’d call it that. Half the time it doesn’t even work. Used to think the Apple weather app was terrible. Nope this is lightyears behind
Promotions are a scam
I like me F26 weather. But occasionally it pops up a promotion that links to a supposed Amazon questionnaire that in turn links to a game where you can “ win “ an ipdad. If you win you pay $5 shipping. Well I won, entered my CC info and immediately got charged $57. Luckily Mastercard has the merchant in its fraud database & I was able to decline he transaction. Beware
