### 4/5 — Radar loop too fast

*2026-06-21*

While the app is mostly great, the radar speed is too fast and there’s no pause at the end of the loop. There’s no way to adjust it. I wish they would fix it. Otherwise, it’s pretty accurate and user-friendly.

### 3/5 — Need to fix radar map

*2026-06-16*

The radar is always way behind the current conditions. Many times, like the present, it’s showing the rain is approaching. However it’s pouring outside.

Update: still not current. 
Also, I would like to see an option to control the speed of the radar. It goes much too fast.

### 2/5 — Inaccurate radar

*2025-09-09*

This app used to provide somewhat accurate info but now it will show its been raining for hours in my location and miles around me and will continue for several more but we never had one drop! 3rd time this week this happened.

### 3/5 — Still has bugs

*2025-08-24*

Since the last update the notifications are completely off. It doesn’t warn you of your alerts till 30mins to an hour after it’s happened. Kind of defeats the purpose

### 2/5 — Not reliable

*2025-05-07*

Least accurate weather app out there. Almost never get the weather right. The predictions are not even a little close to what actually happens. If you want to plan your day ahead and need to plan out the weather don’t use this app

### 3/5 — Radar

*2024-09-19, version 5.15.409*

The 24 hr Radar stops half way through 
Please fix this

### 3/5 — The dew point is gone!

*2024-05-07, version 5.14.700*

Where is it??

### 3/5 — Need to fix radar map

*2024-01-16*

The radar is always way behind the current conditions. Many times, like the present, it’s showing the rain is approaching. However it’s pouring outside.

### 3/5 — Missing tracking the tropics video’s

*2023-09-27*

It appears the fox team has removed the tracking the tropics video from the app. This is critical information that Floridians need to have access to. It used to be in the app but not anymore. Please bring it back!

### 3/5 — Lag in radar

*2023-07-14*

Radar seems to be behind actual time. It can be storming here but the radar shows no rain in my location and vice versa.

### 3/5 — No alerts

*2023-06-21*

Have not been getting severe storm alerts when a really bad storm has come through. Why does my radar map not match up with Fox35 news station?

### 3/5 — Please fix map

*2023-06-18*

I can’t change the map from “future” to “past”.  The button is greyed out. Also, Radar seems to be behind actual time. It can be storming here but the radar shows no rain in my location and vice versa.

### 1/5 — Radar and hourly doesn’t auto refresh. Nothing loads. Full of bugs

*2023-04-28*

Please fix these issues. Nothing in the app seems to refresh itself. There is no way to manually refresh. No time sensitive notifications. Sometimes nothing loads. Someone’s just “??” on the radar. Again, no way to refresh anything in this app! Click on play button to look at radar. Doesn’t do anything. Hourly forecast doesn’t show current hour. Only next hour. So if it’s 8:03 it doesn’t show what the forecast is for 8:00. It only shows 9:00. It should at least show the current hour and on. So many bugs. Also, it keeps defaulting to Orlando Florida and not my current location. I live very close to Orlando, but not in Orlando. And then turns off notifications for all locations! So many bugs to fix in this app

### 4/5 — Hurricane track

*2022-09-25, version 5.6.503*

What happened to the hurricane track you guys had. I don’t see it anymore.

### 1/5 — Can’t save alert settings

*2022-02-07*

After selecting and turning off alerts I don’t want to see (example: coastal rip currents), they come right back next time app is opened. Needs to be a way to save settings. Also radar screen use to open full screen. Now takes extra taps to see radar in full screen. Old versions of app were much better.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Sherman

*2025-12-17, version 6.1.101*

Put it back like it was could use perfectly fine don’t like new version

### 1/5 — Unreliable

*2025-10-09*

This app used to be so good, could rely on it to predict DAYS ahead with relative accuracy. Now it changes ENTIRELY within 30 minutes. Says 100% rain all day starting late afternoon, then when that time comes theres supposed to be no rain at all. Been happening almost daily for months now. I’ve had enough with this app of junk.

### 1/5 — Your guess is as good as theirs

*2025-09-28, version 5.17.705*

No explanation needed.

### 1/5 — Ocean and all water is black.

*2024-02-14, version 5.12.700*

Why is all the lakes rivers and ocean black? Everywhere. I will change my review when it changes.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-10-13, version 5.12.700*

Just trash lately . Changes three times a day . Can’t predict rain even close. What happens? Used to be the best!

### 1/5 — Use to be good

*2023-10-13, version 5.12.700*

99% of the time the radar is black & doesn’t work, if you quick close the app enough times it might work. A year or so ago it was spot on, not sure what happened but iOS effectiveness of the app and radar has been rendered useless.

### 1/5 — Right radar info

*2023-07-24, version 5.8.501*

The radar seems to show a different take on rain prediction. I look on a difficult weather app and there’s no rain !!!!!  Need to update

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-06-18, version 5.8.501*

App NEVER works when you’re in the midst of a storm. What’s the point of that?

### 1/5 — Useless

*2023-06-08*

The radar shown is at least 15 minutes old.  In most cases it appears to be just a compute model, not actual radar images.

They posted a Tornado Warning yesterday for Brevard County but provide NO LOCATION DETAIL!  News Flash,  Brevard is a huge geographic county.

If you activate their alerts all you get are spam messages they updated their forecast, which is wrong 90% of the time.

### 1/5 — Junk science

*2023-04-30, version 5.8.409*

Wildly inaccurate forecasting. I could just say it’s going to be a 50% chance of rain every day in Florida and I’d be way more accurate.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Outstanding information and completely free

*2024-10-08*

I’ve tried about a million Weather apps and this is far and away the best free app I have ever found. It includes very granular radar and hurricane storm tracks. It shows five hours of future radar and TV reporting. I would especially recommend it for anyone in Florida because of the local TV reporting.

### 5/5 — The best news app!!

*2024-08-16, version 5.15.409*

I have to say .I am very pleased with channel 35 news app.I know everything that I need to .I can plan my day around the app.Thank you for all your hard work Channel 35

### 5/5 — Capsule

*2024-02-09, version 5.12.700*

Heard capsule come to atmosphere in NSB

### 5/5 — Love the FOX 35 Storm Team

*2023-03-12*

I use this app several times a day to check the hourly forecast and radar. Really like the videos from them team as well. Having traffic info is also a plus. Good job FOX 35.

### 5/5 — Hourly forecast is spot on !

*2023-01-10*

I rely on the hourly forecast feature every day.  When it says a thunderstorm will begin (and end) it does !  Temperature and precipitation percentages are accurate.   Can’t live without this app!!

### 5/5 — Best Weather App ever!

*2020-03-06*

Unbelievable weather app!!! I switched from another national app and have never looked back.  The graphics, radar and future cast are amazing on the FOX35 Weather App.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2020-02-08*

This is a great app for keeping informed about weather changes in your area. You can modify the alerts you want to get (e.g., tornado, lightning, wind, etc.). You can also use the map feature to zoom right down to your street to see the current weather situation. There are many other great features, too many to list here. I’m glad I downloaded it and I use it very often.

### 5/5 — Need Current Temp

*2019-03-18*

I have used this app for a long tine and find it to be the best around.  Only thing I am missing with the new updated version is the current temperature.  Can’t find it anywhere...is it somewhere that I’m not seeing?

**Developer response:** Hello UMrocks - the current temperature can be found on the home screen at the top of the application. It will update based on your location setting.

### 5/5 — 35 Weather Authority
