Review summary

Many reviews repeatedly complain about advertising overload and content disruption, with pop-ups, ads during articles, and paid content cluttering the experience. Weather tools are frequently cited as unreliable or outdated, including false lightning alerts, radar animation disappearing, and weather videos/frames failing to load. Updates to the app are linked to worse usability, slower navigation, and even white-screen issues, while some users feel news coverage is biased and lagging behind. Positive sentiments exist for staying informed about local weather and news and for an up-to-date forecast.

Pros

Provides an up-to-date local forecast

Cons

Intrusive ads and paid content disrupt reading and navigation
Weather tools are unreliable or outdated (false lightning alerts, radar animation disappeared, weather videos/frames not loading)
Post-update navigation is slow and difficult to use, with issues like white screens
News coverage is perceived as biased and overloaded with ads, reducing context
News updates and events are not timely, often lagging or published after the fact

2024-04-30	Sw*****	In the weather portion of the app, the lightning detection is faulty. I’m getting lightning alerts when there isn’t even storm system within 500 miles away. Just got one an hour ago, and the radar is completely clear in all directions for more than 3 states wide. There’s not a cloud in the sky. Fix the glitch, or it’s like crying wolf. I need to know when storms are on the way and there’s real danger because of my job outside.

2021-01-27	Wo*****	Used to be my go to for news weather and sports. Seems like sport stories are now of primary concern. Switched over to the other news agency but I still check in from time to time.

2020-11-17	Me*****	I am fed up with starting to read an article and this STUPID rating ad pops up!!! It is irritating as hell! Also this website freezes up EVERYTIME I use it. I have an older Apple iPhone. So I do not know if it is the website or my phone. But, you WJET are no longer my go to place for weather or news. Just too irritating.

2020-10-28	Gh*****	My estimation of your coverage of “news” is that you have succumbed to pressures from wherever and re-report COVID, & politically biased crap that comprise advertisements for ideologies you want us to buy into, more than what is “real” I used to enjoy your coverage. I still enjoy Dave & Tom in the mornings. But generally, like other commercials during shows I watch on TV, I have to mute your news coverage (except The weather) to avoid your sales pitches. Last night having Cathy Dahlkemper look down the camera at us lowly infidels was shameful on your part. Who’s big idea was it to film her like that ? We’re not that stupid out here.

2020-09-10	Ch*****	News is politically slanted left. Many times we don’t get the rest of the story because it would put a different perspective on the subject.

2020-07-02	Ar*****	Hard to find the actual news among all the ads. Then again, the “news” they do report is little more than a headline and a soundbite.
