User Reviews

Users praise WSBTweather for accurate data, reliable performance, a usable radar, and strong features like precipitation and storm tracks. However, updates have introduced significant drawbacks: loss of past/future radar, location tracking issues, and disruptive UI changes. A common sentiment is a desire to revert to the old version, alongside frustration with the new layout and radar behavior.

Pros

Accurate and reliable weather data across multiple locations.
Radar/Doppler radar is available at any time and highly valued.
Easy to use with a reliable interface; users check it frequently.
Rich feature set, including precipitation, storm tracks, and earthquakes.

Cons

Major updates have degraded radar functionality, with past/future radar missing and radar map jumping.
Location problems after updates, including inability to locate or the radar defaulting to the wrong city.
UI/UX changes are disliked (cluttered look, white bar, new menus, video on radar reducing map area).
Many users want the old version back and express a desire to revert to the previous app.
