User Reviews

Users praise KWTX Weather for timely, location-based alerts and useful, planning-friendly information, and note the app is free. However, repeated issues revolve around reliability (crashes and not loading on devices), heavy ads and calls to paid versions, radar usability (speed issues and lack of a prior radar option), confusing warning colors during storms, and cumbersome navigation (non-working left panel and overly wordy forecasts). Addressing stability, a cleaner radar UI, clearer warnings, and a more streamlined UI would improve their experience.

Pros

Timely, location-based weather alerts and warnings
Comprehensive weather information useful for planning and safety
Free to use without mandatory paywall
Provides useful safety guidance during severe weather (e.g., tornadoes)

Cons

Reliability issues: app frequently fails to open or load, especially on iPad/iOS
Intrusive ads and monetization; many users would prefer a paid, ad-free version
Radar usability problems: radar can move too fast; desire for previous radar or a simpler, stable map
Warning colors are confusing during storms, making tornado vs severe warnings hard to differentiate
Navigation/UI problems: left panel delete/rearrange not functioning and forecasts can be overly wordy

Recent reviews

After the most recent update everything is ads. I can’t see the current temp, it shows dashes. You click daily weather and it is nothing but endless ads; dooms day scroll.

I love the KWTX weather app. I would give it five stars, but the option to delete cities on your list of cities hasn’t been working for some time now.
