Update: Nope, all I said at first was wrong. After using it longer, I'm getting notifications for sports stuff even though I have that category disabled, it takes forever to start sometimes, constantly complains about not having permission to my local storage which I've purposely denied because there's no need for it, and I notice lots of typos and mistakes in stories, even after they've been updated. Still better than KCCI though.

Why am I getting Saturday's weather on Sunday at 11 am. Also why am I getting morning weather news at 10 at night during a severe thunderstorm telling us we're going to have a severe thunderstorm when it's right on top of us. I liked you guys at first but it's like you just went on vacation. Roku TV your app is doing the same thing. I can tell if I'm in a severe thunderstorm. I'd like to be updated if a tornado is going to drop down on me. Very disappointed. It started out great

I updated my review. This app has really improved. I am mostly interested in the weather and now I get to choose just weather or if I do want a bit of news I can choose what I want to look at. I really like this. Thank you for the work you have done!
