User Reviews

Users praise WPEC WX for accurate, detailed weather information and radar features, plus helpful multi-view options and morning updates. However, multiple reviews cite dissatisfaction with recent updates, usability challenges from color/contrast issues, and missing or inaudible alerts. Additional concerns include glitches, intrusive ads, and occasional loading/open problems on older devices. Overall, solid weather data is offset by UX, performance, and notification problems.

Cons

Readability issues due to background colors/foreground contrast after updates.
Alerts not working or missing audible notifications.
Frequent glitches, performance problems, and intrusive ads affecting usability.
Occasional load/open problems on older devices (compatibility issues).

Recent reviews

I don’t like the new app because of the motion speed. I always look at the past to see which direction the rain is coming from. It’s been sped up way too fast from what it was and makes it move kind of jerky.
