User Reviews

Users praise WAFF 48 for accurate, reliable weather and a clear, radar-focused experience that helps daily planning and location-based forecasts. However, many complain about radar changes in updates that removed overlays and storm tracks, crashes and battery drain, intrusive ads, and the radar defaulting to a basic view each time. Widget/update glitches also detract from usability. Overall, the app is valued for reliability and format, but recent changes have led to frustration and calls for a return to prior Radar functionality.

Pros

High accuracy and reliability of weather data
Clear, visible radar that aids planning
Location-based weather that works anywhere
Well-organized format with hourly updates
Useful for daily planning and routine weather awareness

Cons

Radar features degraded by updates (no overlays/storm tracks, past/future connection lost)
Frequent crashes and battery drain; glitches
Intrusive ads and ad-related annoyances
Radar view resets to basic on each open requiring reconfiguration
Widget/update issues (glitches; no manual refresh)
