User Reviews

Users appreciate WAND Weather for accurate local information, ease of use, and excellent radar features. However, many express frustration with intrusive full-screen video ads that play before accessing key features, lack of an ad-free paid option, and loud, difficult-to-close ads. Some also report performance problems like freezing and slow loading after updates, along with unclear or excessive notifications. Overall, while the app is useful, recent changes in ad implementation have led to significant dissatisfaction among users.

Cons

Intrusive full-screen ads, especially video ads before accessing features.
No option for an ad-free paid version, despite user demand.

App performance issues such as freezing and slow loading after updates.
Notification system can be excessive or unclear, leading to frequent or untraceable alerts.

Recent reviews

This used to be a good local weather app, but recently a video add has been inserted when switching to the radar. It is very intrusive with no way to close it or skip it. I realize that adds help pay for the apps but adds this intrusive are just go to far. I have deleted the app and now use a local competitors app that does not have adds such as this.

Want to support WandTV But the ads have to change. I downloaded it after uninstall over a year ago because I was told by a user they no longer had full page ads. They are back to full page ads again. The ads are LOUD, intrusive and not easily closed out if at all. The app is easy to use and great for local but no. Not going to do the full page ads again
