User Reviews

Users appreciate WHAM WX for its accurate, up-to-date weather information, easy-to-use layout, and helpful features like location tracking and alerts. However, many are frustrated by persistent, loud notifications and repeated weather alerts that cannot be easily dismissed. The app sometimes fails to update location, crashes, loads slowly, and has video playback issues. Overall, while valued as a reliable weather source, significant improvements in notification management, location services, and app performance are needed.

Pros

Easy to navigate layout and weather maps.
Includes weather alerts and advisories.
Provides features like location-based weather tracking ('follow me') and a scanner for worldwide weather.
Generally stable and informative compared to other weather apps.

Cons

Frequent and intrusive notifications, especially repeated weather alerts and loud voice announcements even when the app is in the background.
Location services ('follow me') often fail to update or work properly.
App crashes or loads slowly at times, with issues playing videos.
Repeated ads or delays when switching in and out of the app.
Lack of certain weather metrics like dew point and UV Index.
