User Reviews

Users praise KVUE for solid local weather information and credible news coverage delivered in an easy-to-navigate app. After the update, however, stability problems (freezes, crashes, weather not loading) and dissatisfaction with the overhaul (new radar, bright UI, no dark mode) are common. Advertising prompts, including during weather warnings, annoy many users. Some report cross-device issues (iPad landscape mode and TV support). Overall, the app is valued for content, but performance and UX issues from the redesign are a recurring pain point.

Pros

Strong local weather coverage with current conditions and timely updates
Well-structured, easy-to-navigate app layout
Credible, relatable local news coverage and anchors
Timely severe weather alerts and safety information

Cons

Reliability issues: freezing, crashes, and weather data not loading
Unfavorable overhaul: new radar and brighter UI with no dark mode and less at-a-glance weather visibility
Ads and prompts interrupting critical weather information (e.g., tornado warnings)
Cross-device compatibility problems (iPad landscape mode not supported; TV compatibility issues)
