User Reviews

Users praise KWQC First Alert Weather for accurate, location-aware radar and fast loading, with some noting it’s more user-friendly than the built-in Apple Weather app and helpful for safety with timely alerts. However, reviews repeatedly complain about intrusive ads that disrupt viewing and alerts, radar glitches and disappearing data, a cluttered navigation experience, and audio/video issues such as no sound on weather videos or special weather statements. Some features like past/future radar views are missing or hard to use. Improvements in ad handling, UI clarity, and reliable audio would improve overall satisfaction.

I would love this app, but one thing that really pisses me off and that you guys give me notification when the sun is shining. I don’t need to see that I don’t need that because I can look out the shining we’re not stupid people so I’m deleting your app cause it sucks
