The app has gotten better over the past couple of years. It is still not 5 star but I don't think any app is "the best". I am a SKYWARN Weather Spotter and rely more on the map than anything else on the app. Information like temp, wind and barometric pressure are going to different from your exact location and the technology isn't here to have the app as a personal weather station. All in all, kudos for fixing the freezing issue I had a couple of years ago and got making the map better.

Radar and whatnot is decent. Like the map etc, but my severe weather notifications NEVER work anymore and I haven't changed any settings, have even gone in app settings and within the app itself and on my phone all notification permissions are on and I'm never notified of severe weather like I was when I first downloaded the app, and that's why I downloaded it in the first place. Totally disappointed.

I use to not have any complaints about this app, but now every time I try to change the location it freezes. Sometimes I'll be checking on a nearby town and then change it back to follow my location and it just gets stuck on loading. I have to close and re-open the app 3 or 4 times just to get the location to update. It never use to be like this. Fix it or I'm going back to the weather channel app!

For some reason the weather is not very accurate. I get notifications that it's raining or storming and ill be standing right outside in the middle of the sun and it never ends up doing what it supposed to be doing. I love Lex18 but the app is kinda wonky at times

whenever the temp is in the upper left corner of my phone, I've noticed that within the past 2 or 3 months, it does not update. Which makes that useless. not sure what happened.

It used to be great, but now it's unreliable! No alert about a tornado warning this morning. I've noticed this has become the norm. Miraculously we were able to hear the tornado sirens that we usually cannot hear because of how far they are from our house. You tell us to use the app to keep us weather alert...so keep us weather alert!!!
