User Reviews

Users appreciate WLOS WX for accurate local weather forecasts, excellent radar/satellite maps, and ease of use. However, common issues include slow load times, frequent crashes, missing past radar functionality, and inconsistent forecast updates. Despite these problems, many continue to prefer the app for its reliable local weather information and clear interface.

Pros

Accurate and reliable local weather forecasts.
Clear, concise, and easy to use with a good layout and graphics.
Radar and satellite maps are well-sized and excellent for tracking weather.
Preferred app for local weather among users, even when traveling internationally.

Cons

Slow loading time, sometimes taking a long time to open.
Frequent crashes and freezing issues requiring reinstallation or phone restart.
Past radar maps are missing or inaccessible; only future radar available now, which users find less accurate.
Forecast updates are inconsistent; some users report that temperatures or forecasts don't update automatically unless the app is opened.
