User Reviews

Users praise FOX19 First Alert Weather for accurate forecasts, strong radar, and a user-friendly interface, plus trusted meteorologists. However, many reviews highlight too many non-emergency notifications, performance and battery drain, intrusive ads, inconsistent radar (24-hour view and loading problems), and readability changes (all-caps headlines) after updates. The app remains a go-to for many, but improvements in alert management, performance, radar reliability, and ad-light presentation are commonly requested.

Pros

Accurate and reliable forecasts that make it a go-to weather app
Strong radar features with future radar coverage
Easy-to-use, simple, and logical presentation/navigation
Credible meteorologist team (Steve Horstmeyer and Catherine Bodak)
Daily updates and broad weather coverage

Cons

Excessive non-emergency notifications and loud voice alerts that wake users
High resource usage and device lag/battery drain after using the app
Intrusive ads and ad clutter within the app
Radar reliability issues (incomplete 24-hour radar, loading problems)
Readability/UI issues after updates (e.g., all-caps daily headlines)

I find the forecast here to be very dependable. And your website is very easy to use. I love how you can scroll through and get different temperatures to different times of the days and also you can look at the different dates of the week ahead. it’s very well put together.
