User Reviews

Users appreciate the app's reliable local weather updates, satellite views, and emergency alerts alongside an informative weather team. However, many are frustrated by intrusive ads, inaccurate or delayed severe weather warnings, issues with precise location settings, and radar delays. While generally useful, improvements in alert timeliness, ad frequency, and interface design would enhance the experience.

Pros

Offers satellite and radar views that users find helpful for tracking weather.
Easy to navigate with accurate daily and extended forecasts.
Includes emergency alerts and notifications that users depend on for safety.
Supported by a knowledgeable and informative local weather team.

Cons

Frequent and repetitive advertisements disrupt user experience, especially before and during videos.
Inaccurate or delayed severe weather alerts, with some users missing critical warnings like tornado alerts.
Radar and forecast sometimes do not update correctly or lag, leading to unreliable information.
Issues with app location settings defaulting to incorrect areas, affecting alert accuracy.
Interface and layout could be improved; live coverage is not prominently positioned for emergencies.

Recent reviews

Every since the latest update, the app no longer makes announcements such as "lightning has been detected near your location" or anything like that. Ive went through the settings on the app and on my phone settings ans everything is the same like i had it.
