Channel 7 logo is in the way font unreadable and an ad in the middle of it Unusable Imogenđđ
The old version had a drop down menu for a link to school closings It was very convenient Nothing on this one Why Closings ChrisBoo13
The video on this app is just a black screen So if you like watching the weather forecast on the radio by all means download this Otherwise the other Boston channels have better apps No video Whythef
This has become the only news app I watch They have live broadcasts far longer than the other stations The closed captioning is excellent I also appreciate that they scroll closings while broadcasting Thank you Love this app Thunderstorm138
Thanks for fixing the bug Update is great 5 stars Zom bee2
I used to love this app The main things we look at are the 7 day forecast the blog and the specials map to see how much snow we are expecting Now there are not only way too many clicks and barriers to get to those things but the ads pop up so incessantly that you cannot read the blog I have tried even taking screenshots of it because it disappears so fast into a full page ad over and over I ll be deleting this app Very sad to lose this Please fix Unusable with ads Hughkona
This used to be the most epic weather app my go to even after moving out of Boston Then I made the mistake of updating it last week I used to be able to see my current location weather along with the seven day forecast for the city I was in Now it will show me only current city conditions with Boston s seven day and I m no longer there I could add locations and view the conditions for the week so I could plan accordingly What happened Bummed Used to be AMAZING now it s the worst MJCphoto
I tried very hard this morning to read the weather blog but couldn t because of the huge Discover ad that kept popping up I don t have a problem with ads you have to pay for stuff but you could set a cookie so ads aren t seen the rest of the session Ads ruin the app gcreedon
We LOVED this app in its previous version We used it all the time when riding bikes to see when we had to stop where we had to go to avoid localized showers and of course for the forecast Now it is UNREADABLE on the iPad The giant 7 logo background and the forecast white scrolling lettering makes it IMPOSSIBLE to read You can t see the words anymore Ahhh but you can see the ads just fine Look we know ads are the point for you and we don t mind but when you make the app unreadable for its main purpose you have lost your audience and then the ads aren t seen by anybody something your paying clients should be concerned about I m deleting the app when I am done writing this review It s too bad Your very visible ads won t be seen when you lose your audience due to purposeful unreadability in the rest of the app Sorry to lose this once very useful app It used to be great now it s almost useless StudioPeg
Thank you for listening to the reviews and feedback The weather blog is back This is my favorite part of the app and really the only reason I use it Glad they returned it to this version of the app The Weather Blog is back Jimytime
The important local angle blog maps was removed so there is no reason to choose this app over any other generic weather app I m really disappointed Now I have to go back to the website for the actual forecast I want more than a listing of temps with sun and cloud icons Dumb update Latest update is a bummer ChickenLee
It s nice that the radar is more accessible but doing a way with the blog makes this like any generic weather app But where s the blog Ironicpun
The prior version was easy to use This one is a disaster Lots of ads Background makes it difficult to read the text Go back to the old version And where is the weather blog Terrible update cmgwahoo
This thing is garbage now I agree with all of the other reviews Since they updated it they took out everything that made it useful and made it the weather app with their logo useless now Trash bigcat656564
You took away the weather blog was the best part I ve already deleted this app Bring back the old one WORST UPDATE Jay4154
The WHDH weather app was unique and useful prior to this update it had all sorts of maps and most importantly the blog Now it is difficult to use and has far less information I can get the same data from the iphone weather app in a much clearer format Deleted Changed for the worse Tracker148
My default on 7 app was the blog with actual opinion from Chanel 7 s great weather broadcast staff No other weather app offers a similar feature Now that it s removed I see no benefit to this app versus WeatherBug Bring back the blog dekpho
The revamp of the app is terrible No blog maps live content anymore and the look is bland Don t know why they changed Was by far the best weather app and blew the other local station apps out of the water now it s terrible I ve deleted it Terrible Goosechase
This was my favorite weather app now it s the worst It s almost impossible to read on an iPad The logo sits right on top of everything You have to scroll what you want to read to a blank spot Where did the blog go Blog was the best now gone Also thanks for wiping out all my saved locations Worst update ever Notimpressed666
The only reason for the app Bring Back The Blog blogotbust
Two steps forward four steps back Yes there are new features and a new look but there are lost features as well My biggest issue is how this app became click bait There s almost more ads than content now Was a simple straight forward app but no longer I truly want to support the independent local station but this reinvented app is garbage Huh Jeff 1987
New look is fine but I can only find watch live Where did watch latest forecast go Many weather apps can tell me the weather This was the only one with a useful video forecast and this update seems to remove it Lost weather video DC999999
All the reasons would use blog and maps gone deleted Horrible update Cms1209
Pictures and video forecasts but no detailed forecast option without watching the video No detailed forecast Iskidds
I used to LOVE this app now the new format makes it difficult to watch video forcasts or really anything Not sure why everything changed New changes are awful Farmer Lindsay
Omg the adds that pop up are out of control Same ad comes up multiple times Please make it stop or improve the design so you can dismiss it once There also seems to be more screen space dedicated to ads than news Aren t you supposed to be a news station Get it together whdh Popup ads SARS9876
I know your app need to make money but the expanding ads are miserable I won t use the app anymore Ads have driven me away Jkl152515
App used to be good The new format isn t as intuitive It also doesn t connect a lot of times now and doesn t show any forecast or radar map Would be nice if they fixed the bugs Gone downhill HickeyBE
Ads pop up constantly including alert boxes that force you to click OK and try to redirect you to the App Store to buy something I love reading the weather blog Too bad Uninstalling Spam Wildwood!!!!
Not as user friendly after the last update Update stinks chels257
This app runs very smoothly Can always watch the latest forecast video Plus the live streaming of the news runs flawless with perfect picture Works great Boricua857
Bigger maps please Bigger maps MarkNH
This used to be my 1 weather goto app Earlier this year you made major changes which ruined it especially the new tiny sized 7day map now the tiny map has even lost its tiny neat graphics You really blew it Channel7 weather is the most Acurate but unfortunately your app now is weak slow and clunky Fire your developer and get a real app you deserve it Too bad MAs World
I really rely on this app to provide me with the daily weather GREAT Jquigs27
Love the new interface and so far it works great Nice work So far so good Stumblet37
I have this app for one reason the weather Now when I select the Weather Blog tab it takes me to the local news Please return to the previous design with easy access to weather information in the weather app Dreadful updates Davey's Gal
Terrible update can t use app freezes whenever I open weather blog crashes quiet a bit too please fix Crashes Glitchy Ravenswillow1đđ
The new design and updates are terrible This app is almost unusable It is glitchy and freezes every time I have used it Often there are sections that are inexplicably inaccessible So annoying Terrible app Brainiac2020
Since whdh updated their website the app is broken No data has been updated and the maps don t work Please fix Useless the past 3 days Dan A, Boston
This app is always crashing never works when you want it to snow storms and is just terrible Better off looking out the window Terrible app TerribleApp-don't use
I do prefer the old version although some of the graphics are a little better however the reason I gave it 1 star is it seems like during the most important time like expecting 12 inches of snow there is no video forecast posted Lame Could be great Sara Gummybears
The new design is terrible as not easy to navigate It didn t need to be changed I m deleting this one App stinks Nightskier
App doesn t start on the most important screen Every time it starts up with the side bar It should start with your top favorite places weather by default I open the app for weather No reason I should have to tap something else to get there Updated design is horrible CDiegzz
The actual forecast has nothing to do with the graphics on the extended forecast For example there is supposed to be significant rain this Thursday but it shows a bright sun and mostly clear Alongside this is a 90 chance of precip Is it so hard to do this right One significant problem Standard Gamble
Why have a separate weather app apart from the news app Just integrate the two If the news app doesn t have sufficient weather information then it s poorly designed and a bit of a rip off Why TripleAAardvark
I use it daily Great app biker96
I use it daily Great app
I think the app is great except for one flaw please fix the blog viewer or fix the way you write the blogs so that graphics or images show up for the reader All we can see is text and you refer to images that arent there all the time Pretty good
After the update this is the best weather app for Boston area people hands down thanks for the 43 update Best Boston area weather app
I downloaded this app so I could watch the video forecast from prior newscasts like from earlier tonight since they are unavailable on mobile Safari the website requires Flash Unfortunately I checked the video section of the app and there are no videos available Makes the app pretty useless The forecast and description of future weather is available If that is what you are looking for this may be for you Mediocre
I like the computer link to Channel 7s weather report and expected the app to be the same But its not Theres no video report So its just another weather app Disappointed
Everything from the website repurposed well for the iPod touch iPhone Well done
I really rely on this app to provide me with the daily weather GREAT
Terrible update cant useapp freezes whenever I open weather blogcrashes quiet a bit too please fix CrashesGlitchy
past 3 days app wont load
This used to be my 1 weather goto app Earlier this year you made major changes which ruined it especially the new tiny sized 7day map now the tiny map has even lost its tiny neat graphics You really blew it Channel7 weather is the most Acurate but unfortunately your app now is weak slow and clunky Fire your developer and get a real app you deserve it Too bad
This is the Best app ever for weather Best app
All of a sudden the app isnt loading and I count on you as my go to for weather and news Please fix it What happened
App needs to be updated immediately It crashes immediately Ever since iOS 43 update Failure after iOS 43 update
Doesnt work in 43 So sad Not in 43
The new design is terrible as not easy to navigate It didnt need to be changed Im deleting this one App stinks
The weather pages for hourly daily right now never load My boyfriend has the same app and his will work while my app wont This app is lame Bad app
the splash screen appears ten crashes please update doesnt work with iOS43
Need an update Not working with the new iOS
They could add for features but it works just fine for me as someone said the are the best in Boston so Ill wait patiently till the app is updated Works good for me
This app runs very smoothly Can always watch the latest forecast video Plus the live streaming of the news runs flawless with perfect picture Works great
The video forecasts which I got the app for never work Seriously needs a fix Crap
App works great Problems though Sometimes app needs to be reloaded from app store On the settings page in settings there is no information The subscribe to alerts does not work well App works well overall though I like it
No channel 7 on direct tvno app The owner of this station
Hands down best weather app Best weather app
I need this app everyday Cool n usefull
Thanks for the 43 update Works great Thanks
Bigger maps please Bigger maps
Just slightly off with the weather part odd Projected snowfall totals in special maps is a great addon More frequent video updates is biggest necessity Great app
Great app A must if you live in Mass Great App
It is currently snowing buckets but according to the app it is clear and sunny out Yeah okay Its not like this was a surprise storm either Terrible
Doesnt fit to iPhone 5 screen iPhone 5
This app is always crashing never works when you want it to snow storms and is just terrible Better off looking out the window Terrible app
Day before a big snow storm and there hasnt been a video forecast all day Every day they push this app on tv but no one maintains it Dont bother Weather What weather
Pros Nice clean interface Data is well layed out Ablilty to navigate a live radar loop is very useful Big plus because not every weather app can do this Has listing of school business closings Ability to access WHDHs canned graphics for live TV forecasts is a nice plus I found it more useful than the mobile edition of WHDHs weather website In fact I think the standalone WHDH weather app is better than what is included in the weather portion of the WHDH news app So get both Cons No device rotation support Minor This would be helpful for tracking storms moving west to east in landscape mode vs portrait mode Useful
The new design and updates are terrible This app is almost unusable It is glitchy and freezes every time I have used it Often there are sections that are inexplicably inaccessible So annoying Terrible app
Crashes upon opening once you upgrade to OS 43 Their solution listed on the website 7 Why is my app running slow freezing or crashing on iOS4 You have to completely shut down apps by clicking your home button twice and removing apps from the list of all running apps If there are too many apps running in the background the phone may run out of memory which can cause the app to run slower or potentially get pushed out of memory and cause the app to crash This happens quite often and is unfortunately a feature of iOS4 Tried that It still doesnt work So I deleted the app redownloaded hard reboot and it STILL doesnt work stopped working
I dont know why this isnt rated better so far its been great for me Lots of good features Works great for me
App crashes every time you open it Tried redownloading but didnt help Crashes every time
App doesnt start on the most important screen Every time it starts up with the side bar It should start with your top favorite places weather by default I open the app for weather No reason I should have to tap something else to get there Updated design is horrible
Why does the 7 day map vary so greatly from the daily 7 day forecast Which one is correct Consistency please
The actual forecast has nothing to do with the graphics on the extended forecast For example there is supposed to be significant rain this Thursday but it shows a bright sun and mostly clear Alongside this is a 90 chance of precip Is it so hard to do this right One significant problem

Since whdh updated their website the app is broken No data has been updated and the maps dont work Please fix Useless the past 3 days
I like it more and more each time I use it really really great App Very loveable Does much much more than the builtin weather application given by apple It covers all weather systems with radar gives a superb hourly forecast just as well as daily App is very easy to use and the weather is very uptominute It gives all the watches and warnings in every location you put into it You can add your location and numerous others that you wish by choosing the small i info button on the homepage weather screen Does very well for all weather needs Very Awesome
Love the new interface and so far it works great Nice work So far so good
Why have a separate weather app apart from the news app Just integrate the two If the news app doesnt have sufficient weather information then its poorly designed and a bit of a rip off Why
I do prefer the old version although some of the graphics are a little better however the reason I gave it 1 star is it seems like during the most important time like expecting 12 inches of snow there is no video forecast posted Lame Could be great
Video forecast has gone from old to pre historic to non existant This app is embarrasing your weather people Please make on air apology
Great app love the blogs I have no idea why people talk about the crashes mine has been flawless since it was introduced Love it
The app constantly froze or did not load at all When it did work I liked the layout Frozen tundra
