User Reviews

Users generally like WAVY Weather for its strong local coverage and detailed forecasts, and many have used it for years. However, recurring issues hurt its reliability: radar accuracy and U.S.-only coverage, broken or intrusive alerts, frequent crashes, unreliable location tracking ('Follow me'), and heavy advertising. These data and stability problems mitigate otherwise positive feedback from frequent, long-time users.

Pros

Strong local weather and WAVY News coverage
Detailed forecasts and weather data
Very accurate hourly data (per user reports)
Long-time favorite for weather and news

Cons

Radar data is often inaccurate and/or not shown for locations outside the U.S.
Notifications are inconsistent: settings aren’t remembered, alerts can be intrusive, and some events aren’t pushed
App crashes or becomes unresponsive on launch
The 'Follow me' location feature does not work reliably
Constant full-screen ads/banners make the app hard to use
