BeWeather 2 for iPhone

[ThePinkChameleon]

Update 2: Back and forth. It works a while, then stops. It seems to be more consistent on my old iPhone 5. I'm really clueless. I hope the next update gets its going again like it was a week ago. Possible culprits are iOS 9.1, wifi, RAM issue, app bug with the 6s Plus.

I'm still on my 5S.

I'm having the same issue. It'll update for a while then just stall out. I have to open the app for it to start with the lock screen updates again...this started with iOS 9.1 again. On 9.0.2 it seemed like it may have been a bit more stable.

The "RED BAR" looks much better..IMHO

I'm more concerned with everything working right.

So am I, but in the same token I want it to look good as well.

Edit; I went back to the paid version and everything is working correctly on my device.

I think I found a bug with the radar overlay on the map.

When zoomed out the radar is not in the correct area. Look at these 2 pics. In the Lake Zurich pic the green rain area is just west of Rockford. In the 2nd pic with the radar zoomed out this same rain storm is shown in the middle of Wisconsin which is incorrect. You can duplicate this by zooming out on a current storm on the map.

There's a temperature difference between those two locations of 9?. I tested 2 locations on mine and didn't see that. It wouldn't be a BeWeather 2 bug anyways. That info comes from weather underground. They have had a few issues lately. It's like those two shots were at different times. But your clock says otherwise.

You don't need to look at different locations to see the bug. Look at the storms around Midland, TX right now. Zoom at about the 1/2 state level. Then zoom out to where you see almost all of the USA and you will see the Midland storm jump up into New Mexico. You need to give it a few seconds after the zoom to reset to the the zoom level.

I see what you're talking about. It looks as if one shows the early time of the "in motion" weather and the other shows the end. It's what, a 2 or 3 hour difference? Odd it would do that way.

 

[Ledsteplin]

The weather underground map was worse. LOL

Like the UI, well done app!

The current paid version with the "RED BAR"

 

[bdtrader]

I would like a preference to continue to use the red bar.....

Me too. It's looks and works a lot better than the small triangle...IMHO

I don't think it is a 2/3 hours difference. These storms were moving mostly east. The zoomed out version shows it farther up north but at same east/west location. I think there is an overlay issue with the map is zoomed out.

Could be that. I do know the map behaves kind of clunky zooming in and out compared to my local TV station's app map.

I'm confused. Is this app still a beta? I thought the version in the App Store was a public, finished version?

If the current versions are still beta, when will the final version be released?

Please excuse my lack of knowledge on the matter.

The version in the app store is the public, finished version. There is also a beta version that most of us here are testing, before updates are pushed out to the app store.

How do I become a beta tester?
