I really like being able to watch the news when it's not on TV. BUT I find the sound randomly turns on during the day, even when my phone is silenced and I'm in an appointment. I have to unlock my phone, navigate to the app and exit it again. I do appreciate that the app was improved so that it no longer shuts off after a few minutes of watching it!

I appreciate the changes you guys have made to int. radar, but my gosh are you intentionally making it frustrating to use? The animation is too fast and you can't slow it down? really? please Make it an adjustable speed. also The hourly gives you a 2-hour period with the present centered in the middle. this isn't nearly enough range to get decent information. please show several hours into the future. honestly you guys need to do user testing it seems. unsatisfying for over 5 years.

I loved this app until the last update. I do not for the life of me understand why they took an app that functioned well, easy to navigate, showed all the content, and decided to rip it all down and give you an app that has very few options, no way to search for a story and forget about using the app to check the weather.. after several years of use I will be uninstalling it. what were you thinking king5?
