## Review summary

Overall, users praise Fox6 Milwaukee Weather for accuracy, strong radar, and useful notifications that follow you across locations. But recurring complaints center on degraded radar after updates, app crashes and slow performance, removal of dew point and other data, and unreliable or delayed forecast details (especially snow totals). Timeliness issues—updates that fall behind, weekend lags—are common, and ads clutter the app. These issues overshadow the positives for many and drive calls for a return to a simpler, more reliable version.

### Pros

- Accurate and reliable weather predictions
- Excellent radar functionality
- Helpful notifications and location-based weather tracking (follow-me feature)
- Often cited as better than the Weather Channel and other forecast apps

### Cons

- Radar quality worsened after updates and remains unreliable
- App crashes and slow performance after updates
- Removal of dew point and other useful data/features
- Forecasts and snow details are often delayed or lack accumulation/timing information
- Ads clutter the app and the UI can feel less intuitive after updates
