User Reviews

Users praise KATC Weather for its fast, animated radar and robust weather data, plus a trusted local touch with Rob P and cross-country usefulness. Many consider it a go-to app for temperature and wind and quick updates. However, reviewers repeatedly cite intrusive ads, concerns about forecast accuracy and inconsistencies between hourly and daily views, and bugs after updates that cause freezes or nuisance alerts. Some requests include iOS widgets. Overall, radar and local credibility drive positives, but ad volume, reliability, and feature requests limit its appeal for some users.

Pros

Radar is fast to load, highly animated, and widely praised as the app’s standout feature.
Provides comprehensive weather data (temperature, wind, etc.) and serves as a reliable go-to weather app.
Local focus and trusted meteorologist Rob P add credibility for Acadiana users.
Travel-friendly and usable across locations; works well for users who move and check weather anywhere.
Offers quick updates for upcoming hours and days.

Cons

Excessive ads and ad videos disrupt usage.
Forecasts can be inconsistent or not always accurate, especially hourly vs daily.
Performance issues like app locking up or crashes after updates.
Push notifications/alerts can be annoying or difficult to control.
Widgets are missing; users are requesting iOS widgets.

This App used to be great. Now I can’t see the map because long, drawn out ads pop up immediately and once they’re done you can’t even click the X to close them out. I closed the app 3 times in a row and the same ad just kept popping up. Look, I know ads help revenue but if that’s the issue just make people pay for the app so they can have weather at their fingertips as soon as they need it. Sad to see this app change so much.
