User Reviews

WKRN Weather Authority is a long-standing weather app with customizable alerts, but users report significant downsides: heavy ads, poorly localized and excessive notifications, unreliable radar, frequent crashes, and inconsistent forecasts. Users want fewer interruptions, better localization, and improved reliability while retaining the trusted alerting features.

Pros

Long-standing go-to weather app trusted for years.
Customizable alert/notification options to focus on relevant warnings.
Supports tracking weather for multiple locations within the same app.

Cons

Intrusive ads and long pre-rolls before videos that disrupt usage.
Alerts are often not well localized and can overwhelm with irrelevant warnings.
Radar/storm-tracking features can freeze or fail to load during storms.
App stability issues like crashes or failing to open after updates.
Forecasts can be inaccurate or not match actual weather conditions.

Recent reviews

The app continues to lag and break the constant ads and misinformation that the app gives is not really safe considering the fact most of the future sliders track where your location is and moves the storm straight towards you when in reality it doesn’t I’d rather sit through 1500 ads during the tv broadcast of the weather than this app

This has been my go to weather app in Tennessee for years. So sad to see it completely rendered useless with ads. You open the app you get an ad, you click on any tab you get an ad, the tab doesn’t load and you click it again, you get another ad! Absolutely insane! If I need to check Weather, you can’t make me sit through 1:30 of ads before I can get to my radar.
