They messed it up. Used to be a great app. Couple upgrades back they changed it and now it’s not worth the download. Shop somewhere else

Needs ad free option!. Slow to update versions for new iOS/iPhones, but this latest version finally supports iPhone 5 screen, so some stars for that. Overall it is a decent app, just wish there was a paid ad free option.

Not a good update, a few bugs to squash yet.. I'm not terribly upset like everyone else that's reviews the app. The home screen is better and the full screen map button is nice. Only real gripes I have are the background color is annoying and makes it hard to read the white text, but my biggest gripe is, from the home screen, when I touch a day that I want the forecast for it displays the next day automatically instead of the day I touched. i.e, if I touched Monday, then Tuesday's forecast shows up, if I scroll to the right and touch Thursday, then Friday's forecast opens up. Pretty annoying, I'm sure it's an easy programming fix, get on it. Overall I liked the original app better, but with a few bug fixes I'm sure this app will be just as useful.

Update terrible. This was the best weather app until the last update. The map is either too light or dark, not natural looking like before.

Great weather ap!. Radar is easy to see. Complete Weather forecast for location.

Hard to read. This used to be clear & precise. Also used to include area names and the color scheme was great. Now it’s so hard to determine all these things And difficult to see & hard to figure out.

Current location. I loved this app until they broke it. The setting to use your current location only while using the app does not work. It is now all or nothing. Very disappointed. I liked the app better then the Weather Channel but I have now deleted it.

Topper. I love topper, the app was great for a while, but now it takes for ever to load if at all, what to do ????

Can’t see hurricanes. All of a sudden the hurricanes no longer show up on the radar. I can see the forecasts still but not the actual hurricanes. Used to be my favorite weather app but I may need to delete it to get one that works.

Good but Intellicasts Forecast. I like this app but the radar and forecast come from Intellicast not WUSA unless you watch the video. The app is made by WSI Corp. which is intellicast. If you compare Topper's forecast with this app they are not the same but if you compare this app with intellicast's on the web or the iPad APP they are the same. Not that intellicast is a bad source for weather. I have the Intellicast App for my iPad and like it. I just want to point out that this is really not WUSA's forecast. WSI makes this APP for a number of TV Stations across the country. Two other annoying things are the Banner and the spinning gear that never seems to go away when viewing the 10 day forecast. You would think by now they could fix the problem. If you like this app and want it native for your iPad then download Intellicast's App for the iPad it is the same thing and the iPad App works better with the bigger display.

Excellent Weather App. Performs just like the weather map on the WUSA website. An outstanding app both in quality and performance. Works great on iPhone 3GS. Definitely a must for tracking storms and forecast information.

It was a great app. Lately when I open a black screen shows 0 min video.

Great DC Radar Application!. The recent new release has moved this good app to a great app. Topper is my go to Weather Dude and I trust his forecasting. I use this app to keep an eye on the weather radar when I'm boating on the Potomac. This app has saved me from getting drenched many times. Great App!

Used for years now will not work. App no longer opens. Very sad always been most accurate for my area.

Not consistent anymore 😫. I've always been a big Topper Shutt fan and have used this app for years. But in the last week or two, sometimes it won't open - sometimes it will; so I've looked up my weather elsewhere.

What?. Have had this app for a long time. When I tried to open it today it tells me it is no longer shared with me and to purchase from the App Store. I have as I said had this app a long time. Did go to App Store and it has the open icon next to it which shows I already have it but same thing comes up from there. Please fix. The above rating is from before this happened obviously.

Great app except!. So this is a really nice app except the newest versions require you to kill the app after you’ve used it once. Otherwise everything flashes. I’m using the newest version of iOS on both my iPad and iPhone and it’s the same on both devices. So I really hope they fix this because I really like using this app.

Used to love app. The most recent version requires one to have location on "always" in order to use the "current location" functionality. I used to love this app and this specific feature- but this change is invasive to my privacy. So it limits the utility of this app to me. Bad design choice.

Jenny. I don’t like the ad that goes off every time I open this app.

WUSA 9 weather. Recently the app keeps going to a black screen pauses and then reloads Don’t know what is happening?

Great weather app!!. I check the weather all the time, so this app is great for me. I love seeing the weather map (specially when turning the iphone landscape). Must have for the DC/Baltimore area.

Runs smooth on iPhone 3G.. Runs great and does what it was designed to do. Future updates: add a storm photo section for iPhone users to upload and view other user's photos.

Nowhere near as good as it was. This used to be my favorite weather app. It was a quick way to get my favorite meteorologist’s dependable forecast. Lately, I discovered that not only was the app extremely slow and would no longer be read in landscape mode, but also it was different from the on-air forecast by Topper and his team. I can only hope that something will be done to make it as good as it was previously or I will need to find a replacement.

Coolest weather app ever!. I didn't know what to expect when I installed it. I was pleasantly surprised. Provides even more information than the stanard iPhone weather app. And it's stuff I've always wanted or needed to know. Way to go Topper!

Moon rise!. This app sometimes quits on me, sending me to the App Store for a replacement, but I always come back to Topper! It is the only weather app that gives the moon rise, set and phase. Very informative and I know where and when to find the moon!

Looks like they finally got their act together.. After a couple of days running the latest version of this app, it appears to no longer hang on the splash screen. This issue has appeared, been corrected, only to reappear again in a later update. This would have been obvious if my previous reviews had not been deleted. I’ll give it 3-stars for now, if it continues to run without hanging over the next couple of updates, I’ll update my review.

Great!. I never miss Topper, he is my man for the weather. As far as the gripes about the banner; it's a free app, get over it. The features that this app has makes it absolutely wonderful, and the banner is not that big.

Terrible update!. This used to be my favorite weather app. However, the latest update is terrible! The fonts are tiny and difficult to read. The organization of information is not nearly as intuitive as it used to be... I hope WUSA will revert back to the old app format. It worked great! If not, I'm going to have to find a new weather app!

Barely Works Anymore. This app used to be best, but lately half the time it doesn’t load or doesn’t work when it does.

Why???. This was my favorite app until the update! I can't even read it now! The color and font is terrible. Deleting...

Impressed. I have been impressed with the options. I prefer the layout over TWC's app. It also seems more detailed over TWC app. Love it!

Storm track. The best radar app I've found. I rely in the storm tracking when fishing. I know when to get off the water

Where did the old map go. The old map showed states and smaller city's and towns and no longer shows mine! Really hard to tell when weather is going to hit us. Was able to track weather within mins but now have no idea. Fix this please

Better than Weather Channel app!. The Weather Channel app was my go-to for a long time...but I found it INCREDIBLY frustrating that the radar updated, on average, 30 mins late! That's unacceptable if I want to track a storm, which is the only reason to have a radar function (check the time stamp on those radar images if you never realized how off their radar is) This app's radar is maybe 5 mins off real-time, can be tilted to the side, and has everything I need. GREAT APP!

Weather alerts, radar maps, and hourly+10-day forecasts. This app is not beautiful, but it is my favorite for exactly one reason: if there is ANY severe weather alert issued - watch or warning, or updates to either - I know it will tell me. Lots of weather apps include Notification Center settings, but this one *uses* them, right out of the box. The push notifications are already enough to make this my preferred weather app, but the fact that it provides radar maps, *animated* maps (past and future), hourly weather forecasts, and 10-day forecasts are enough to make this my one stop app when I need to know weather conditions for the DC area.

Big brother is watching. With the update the app MUST track your every movement to get current location. The "while using" option does not work and will not find current location during app use.

I hate the banner!. I really like this app. It works well & is reasonably fast. There are many paid apps that aren't as nice as this free one. Thank you, WUSA. BUT --- That terrible banner keeps me from giving it 5 stars.

Please fix this app!!. This was my favorite weather app until recently. Now it only works about a third of the time. It won’t load - does nothing except show the Topper Shut photo page. Please fix it, and make it a 5 star app again! Thanks!

Best weather app. I have several weather applications installed on my iPad. This is the app I use most frequently and is on my shortlist on my iPad. I frankly find all of the weather applications to have the same degree of accuracy. I look for the best display of and easy navigation through the weather information. This app does it the best. The Weather Map, the 10-Day Forecast, and the Hourly Weather are at your fingertips. The Weather Map can play the future map 5 hours forward! This is the only application with this feature. (The Weather Channel used to have this feature but discontinued it.) The 10-Day Forecast is great because it has the key information for all 10 days on one page. You can, of course, tap any of the days to get the details on that particular day. The Hourly Weather is easy on the eyes and has historically shown to be extremely accurate as the day progresses. It is very easy to add any additional cities to the homepage and very easy to navigate from one city to the next. I have found the app to be reliable.

App doesn’t load anymore. A shame - this has been my go to app for DC weather for years. And app support just takes you to the news website???

Love this app!. This app is wonderful. I live on it and it helps me plan if I need to travel around the area. My 9 year old pulls it up first thing every morning to check the weather. It works great. I love the alerts and the radar to see how a front is moving. I like the hourly forecast as well as the 10 day one.

Nice street level view. I like how you can zoom to street level and see the weather radar over your house! Very cool free app for the DC area

Weather app is timed to west coast. Weather app is timed to west coast. I can’t get current forecast or conditions for a couple of hours in the future.

Stop making it worse. This was a quick app and was helpful. Now background colors are awful- green provided a light background that allowed roads, names to stand out. Know ch9 pays for this so give the team a vacation, try to return to former mode. Will be using Ch 4 app as it is closer to the old version. Keep it Simple

Best weather app but not w Topper pic. I really liked this app for the information it provided but I quickly grew tired of the gratuitous, and frankly unwise, opening picture of Topper Shut and subsequently deleted it. Bad decision by someone who should better understand basic psychology and marketing. A negative like this carries over to the entire brand. Not smart! Good that you dropped the gratuitous picture, now please remove the WUSA9 pop up!

DC Metro Weather. Very good weather app. I like the options for the map overlay - - I can select precipitation, clouds, road weather or wind speed. It also has an earthquake and compass overlay. It gives me the options to search for all the weather alerts, to view changes in the weather by the hour and a 10 day forecast. WUSA 9 is a Washington DC station but this app can be used anywhere by selecting current GPS location. This app gives me "almost" everyrthing I need. I think it's one of the best "free" weather apps out there.

Works great, nice for DC area. I like this local app for the DC area. Heads up info on the first page includes a high resloution map/radar and conditions. Good info and watch weather video from WUSA9. Would be 5 star if icon is updated for iPhone 4 retina display, most of the app is clearly rendering for the new iPhone 4 screen so why not the icon?

Simply the best!. This is by far the best weather app around... TWC doesn't even come close with their ridiculous paid version! Way to go Topper!

Won’t load. I’ve been a fan of this app for the longest now and all of a sudden just out of the cold blue yonder it won’t load for me I’ve tried force closing the app power cycling my phone and nothing wont load meaning it won’t start please fix guys

Not Too Shabby. Like some things about the latest update but still miss the detail the earthquake readings had several updates ago. Also miss the old map layout. Wish they would add it back as a choice. Thanks!

Great. Sunny and 75. Works great for me Iphone 6+

My go to weather app except. I have used this app for a really long time. But now that I updated it, it crashes every time I open it disappointed because I love the hourly option.

Meh.. The Weather Channel app does more. But this is a fine app for DC/Metro specific information. However, my biggest gripe is massive banner app across the top which never goes away.

Disappointed..... I don't know what you did, but the video clip with the forecast never loads. I loved this app until that stopped working....even when the video wasn't updated from Friday and it was Sunday. Please please fix the video link!!!

Broken. Worked great now is broken, shuts off as soon as you open it up, used to be good now is junk!

Not great. App loads slow. Doesn't work on ios5 while others do (haven't seen updates). Weather is inaccurate on the app.

No more video. Everything on app still works except for the forecast video clip which I used to enjoy since I rarely watch the local news. There is still an option for video, except it doesn't work. Please update.

Stopped working. Used to love it. My go to app. Now radar only. No forecast. Not optimized for iPad either. Video never woks anymore. Just crashes every time.

Alert notifications. App says there off. iPhone settings/notifications page says they are on. HELP!!!! Like the old app better.

What Happened?. App used to work fine, now it crashes after 10 seconds. Deleted and reinstalled several times with no luck. Please fix this.

Weird black background suddenly!. Why is the background suddenly black??!! Was ok this morning but now it is black! Do not like, how do I get rid of it?

Great for a week. Nonsense. Fantastic potential, as it's awesome when it worked, to include a good interactive radar; however, it no longer works. Needs a repair/update! A working app would get 5-stars. Fix it Topper!

Pretty good.. Does show the correct weather, and all around the world!

Slow. Radar is slow to load so I end up going over the weather channel radar.

What happened. Thx for fixing the app and bugs.

Future radar. This used to be my best go to radar app for storms. However after tried to view the future radar play button on July 2 at 6 pm, it displays 2 am and not storms in sight.

Crashes on load.. I love Topper and hate the fact that you won't fix this app.

Low def.... Cool app however, not terribly useful, because it is not hi def enough to see the radar in closeup.

Bad App. Just updated - now not working -before update worked great!

Bugs me. Used to love it until they started putting a little bug to get my tension on the advertisement.

Used to work. It used to work great and I loved it. After the last update the location doesn't work right. It shows me over 5 miles from where I actually am. Please fix!

Great weather app! Exactly what I needed as I am always on the road as a consultant!. Terrific!

The radar works!!!. I have the weather channel app and lately the radar hasn't worked so thanks WUSA

Need to update for iPad. Have stopped using this because it is not native for iPad. How about it WUSA?

We need an iPad version!!!. Come on guys update this for us iPad users...PLEASE???

Great app. This app works great! No troubles! But ( to the makers) is there a way to put a "badge" that shows temp on the icon for a quick glance when I don't necessarily need radar?

Great app.. The best weather app I've seen.

Good app-bad video. I love Topper's weather updates. However, the video portion does NOT work - it always freezes when Topper welcomes us. PLEASE FIX - it's very disappointing & I don't really want to switch networks. I would rate 5 stars IF video works. THANKS!

Want the overlay to be transparent again. The precipitation level is accurate, but I want the layer to be transparent like it always was prior to this last update. I can't see the towns and streets through the overlay any more. Please fix!

Last update Grrrrr!. Hate the tiny words and tiny new format. All are condensed ridiculously for easy reference. Loved old format size and arrangement! WHY CHANGE IT?? Now I'm looking for a new wea app, with clean, clear, easily readable, pleasant to the eye format. Grrrrrrr!!

Crashes. Seems like a good app, but I just downloaded it today, and it has crashed twice. I have the iphone app and i am using it on my ipad. Is there an update coming that will keep it from crashing?

Ahead of the pack.... forgot to say that this puts 9 waaaaay ahead of 4 and 7! Topper and Team are my go-to weather guys!

Bring back the version that worked. The new version is terrible

Hands down better then weather bug. Awesome!

Worst upgrade. I am deleting this weather app. It used to be my favorite but now it is difficult to read and understand due to the layout.

Frustrating. Help!!! Fix your app!! Update messed it up. Instant crash on opening and I really rely on this radar on a daily basis. Was the best, now it's just broken. If there is no fix at least offer an update to take it back the way it was.

Weather app. Great weather app

Crashes on opening :(. I've had this app for a long time, reference it almost every day, have kept it updated - but as of today whenever I open it it crashes every time.

Great App!. I don't usually write reviews, but this is a great app. Everything works like it should. Love that I can zoom the map right down to my house!

Crashes. Crashes every time you open it up and try to look at radar

Good Ap. Despite the ads, the ap is pretty good and linked to USA9 which has a very good weather department.

Great app. My iPhone has a rotary dial yet this app loads quickly and easily. Comprehensive yet concise. Radar loads much faster than the national brand.

Slow. This app takes way too long to load. I don't have time to wait - I'd rather use the weather app that comes with the iphone.

Topper's Video. Was working great until last iOS update....now I have no audio/sound. Prior to this, i would have given it a 5 star rating - easy to use & quick response & neat video. Please update WUSA!

No one works on the weekends?. This app would be a lot better if it functioned consistently. The videos do not update on an everyday basis. For instance, I wanted to know the weather for Monday but it is still showing weather updates for Halloween and today is Sunday =\ #notcool

Good weather app. Almost best weather app!

Crashes constantly especially during severe weather. Was a great functioning app but now it crashes constantly and when you need it the most, during severe weather, it crashes all the time.

Radar is not transparent. Radar is not transparent. So all you see is a green blob. No cities, streets are visible. This used to work, now it is useless.

Agree with others!. I'm deleting. I've used this weather app for several years and now I HATE IT. HORRIBLE UPDATE. WHY mess up a good thing you idiots!!?

Needs to be updated!!!. Radar doesn't work with new OS. I would have given it five stars if it did.
