User Reviews

Most reviews are negative after updates, citing loss of useful features, a clunky UI, and delayed data. The core strengths cited are reliable severe-weather alerts, radar tracking, and weekly forecasts. The dominant sentiment is that updates degraded functionality and usability, though some users still value the app’s long history and weather information.

Pros

Severe weather warnings and alerts that help keep users informed and safe
Radar/map view allows tracking of storms and accessing forecasts visually
Longstanding, trusted app used by many for years
Forecasts for the week and upcoming days provide planning insight

Cons

Major updates removed or degraded key features (e.g., trackers, selectable information) and worsened the overall UX
Perceived lag or delay in data; not consistently real-time for alerts and storm information
Radar/Map controls are clunky and users cannot easily view alerts and radar on the same screen
Radar loop controls and past/future view options have become difficult or impossible to use (e.g., switching between 4h and 1h, inability to view past and future simultaneously)
Map performance issues such as freezing and unresponsiveness

Recent reviews

They removed the ads which I really appreciate. I still wish they would go back to the old app before the update.
