User Reviews

Users praise FOX 17 Code Red Weather for clear radar maps and reliable safety alerts, and for usefulness across locations. But many cite a problematic update: harder warning filtering, darker shading, and non-persistent radar settings; intrusive ads (including pornographic ads); lagging/incorrect radar data; and excessive non-severe alerts. Some users request widgets and air-quality data as future features.

Pros

Clear, fast radar maps with accurate current conditions and hour-by-hour viewing.
Reliable Code Red weather alerts that help keep users safe.
Useful across locations and travels, aiding planning and staying informed.
High overall usefulness for quick weather checks.

Cons

Radar/warning controls were made confusing in updates; filtering is hard, tornado warnings can't be isolated, and opacity affects all layers; settings don’t persist.
Ads are intrusive, occupying screen space and including pornographic ads.
Radar/precipitation data is often behind or inaccurate, even within warnings.
Too many lightweight alerts (rain/lightning) that wake users or clutter notifications.

Yall done messed the radar and warnings up with these custom maps stuff. Before I could just toggle off whatever I didn’t want. If I didn’t want any other storm watch I could toggle it off and only have warnings. Now I can’t just have tornado warnings. And even I have radar and watches and warnings I can’t see the radar or the map to know where I’m at because the shading is so dark. Anyway bring back the old app, it was better.

Right now we are in the middle of a tornado watch. I downloaded this to my phone just in case my power goes out.it shows me everything but live coverage. So how am I supposed to see if a tornado is coming my way.
