I positively LOATHE this latest version of the app! The font is so small, (and unchangeable) that I can't even read the thing any more. It lacks settings for us to customize the app the way we want it. (There are some costumizations available, but none that I personally found helpful). I don't like the way the radar has been changed either. If I could give NEGATIVE STARS.... I ABSOLUTELY WOULD! Since I cannot read the font, I had to download a different weather app that suits my needs.

I absolutely hate this new version of the app. It automatically updated on its own and it's awful. My husband still has the normal version of the weather channel app on his phone and the forecast don't even match up with each other!! I tried to Uninstall and reinstall to see if that helped and it didn't. Plus when you go to the app store it shows you the previous version in all the photos not what it's actually installing. Its not accurate at all!! Going to find a new app if not fixed soon!!

I used The Weather Channel app for years up until they did this lastest update. The new version sucks! The widget don't even follow me from city to city, more ads and other features that don't work properly. Weather Channel, "if it's not broke, don't fix it". Your new version including the widget is worse than your previous version. I deleted my account with them and installed another app.
