Weather Channel app crashes immediately after opening

The Weather Channel app on my iPhone 14pro closes immediately after tapping it open. I recently installed iOS 16.6.1. I have powered off the phone and deleted/reinstalled the app but it is still not working. Any advice?

iPhone 14 Pro, iOS 16

I received a message from the Weather Channel folks. They said to turn off the WiFi and open the app using cellular data. Once the app is open, turn the WiFi back on. It should then stay open. I tried this and it worked! (So far…🥴)

Troubleshooting Weather Channel App:


A. Disable a VPN: Are you using a VPN? If so, doable it. VPNs change you location (by changing your IP Address). So, too much may be being put on the app.


B. Contact the Developer:

Being you are having issues with the app, contact the Developer. You'll find their Contact Us info in the app

s site fo the App Store.

Thanks for sharing this - it does help for a while. Seems that the app tries to do something when opened after not being used for a while that doesn’t always work on wifi. The issue is not slow wifi. Perhaps it is trying to determine location from a cell tower. In such a case, the fix suggested is on itself a confirmation that the app has a bug
