Moves too fast and does not have the detail it used to have. I would strongly recommend going back to the original design. First Warn has always been my go to app for weather, I may have to move to something else. Thanks ### 2/5 — Navigation dummy *2025-09-14, version 5.17.706* You put out alerts and don’t say where they are. Then you click the alert and the info gets lost before you have a chance to read it. ### 2/5 — Ads *2024-04-29, version 5.14.502* The app would be 5 stars if it weren’t for all of the advertisements. I don’t like seeing random inappropriate ads while I’m trying to check local news and weather. ### 3/5 — Glitchy radar. *2023-08-04, version 5.10.401* I have updated the app but still get glitches in the radar. ### 2/5 — Not worth the effort most of the time *2023-07-12, version 5.10.401* This app gives the local detail I want. That said, it takes forever to load, which is inconvenient at best when we’re further out and knowing the weather, and seeing the radar is an actual safety issue. I often cannot even get it open at those times when we’re out camping for example. Since I’ve been typing I’ve had 4 alerts sound on my phone for a thunderstorm. If you want to be alerted to emergencies such as tornados you have to put up with knowing every drop of rain that falls. Make that six alerts. All in all, I keep removing it because it’s not as helpful as annoying. I can just get the same info elsewhere. Make that seven alerts in as many minutes. ### 2/5 — Please Fix The Radar *2023-06-26, version 5.10.401* This has always been my go to app to track radar and I’m about ready to remove it and search for something else. ### 2/5 — This was my favorite weather app *2023-06-21, version 5.10.401* The radar is almost impossible to load. I was hoping it was an issue that would be fixed with an update, but it’s been this way for almost two months. ### 3/5 — Weather Skycams not streaming.... *2023-06-06* App works great, as well as all notifications. Your weather skycams work only 1/4 of the time. They don't stream properly. Black screen everytime. This problem has been persisting for months. Need better or more up to date technology. Weak streams that don't livestream properly. ### 2/5 — Radar doesn’t work *2023-06-04, version 5.8.500* Used to love this app would even give it 5 stars, but the radar hasn’t worked for weeks and it’s the only radar I like. ### 4/5 — Great Content!! *2023-04-02, version 5.7.301* Great content and great people doing great work. The app could use improvement, glitchy/ not too user friendly// videos and sound glitchy ### 3/5 — Sounds *2021-09-11, version 5.3.903* Good app however notifications sounds that says announce isn’t announce it’s a NBC tone. That’s wrong and needs to have the proper sound of a voice that says all of the weather notifications. If you think that the NBC tone is a announce then you need to go back to school. ### 3/5 — Baloney *2021-07-19, version 5.3.903* You know I really wish the app Ive used for two years would tell me when it’s gunna rain before it does and not after ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Good for 6 months of the year *2025-05-31, version 5.17.511* These guys are accurate in the winter, but literally only the winter. Absolutely ridiculous how in 2025 they cannot predict a single summer storm until 15 minutes before it hits. Hard to plan anything when relying on this app. ### 1/5 — Radar *2025-03-28, version 5.17.511* -1. Radar is so far off compared to 3 different apps. No way to contact them to repair what’s going on. ### 1/5 — False advertising *2024-07-29, version 5.15.411* Preview shows a radar screen with current weather overlay that lists Dewpoint. Dewpoint is more important to everybody than relative humidity. There is no Dewpoint on the actual app. Boo ### 1/5 — Get around the app *2024-07-13, version 5.15.407* Not easy navigating is app ### 1/5 — Pretty poor *2023-11-27, version 5.12.701* Basically, there are so many commercials that I can’t get any other information ### 1/5 — first warn weekend update... *2023-08-12, version 5.10.401* ads you can hear but actual update Henry needs to speak up, you can barely hear him ### 1/5 — Increasingly intrusive ads *2023-05-31, version 5.8.500* The app itself is alright, the ads are getting out of hand. I had a full screen ad come up while watching the radar today. Time to look for an alternative I guess. ### 1/5 — Never works anymore *2023-05-30, version 5.8.500* This app has become absolutely terrible. The amount of advertisements that they push through at this point for seemingly zero increase in app performance or new features, is ridiculous. I constantly have to close the app and restart it to get the radar to work. And why am I not able to see the latest weather report from the tv program and instead get some stupid webcast? ### 1/5 — No Availabilty *2022-08-06, version 5.6.505* Unable to get the First Warn Weather App on my I-pad. Not in App-store, shows up as view only? ### 1/5 — No sound on weather updates *2021-06-09, version 5.3.800* I cannot get sound on the most important weather alerts. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — The best!! *2025-06-19, version 5.17.511* The best weather app I’ve used, great for local forecast. They’re even correct most of the time!! ### 5/5 — Love the weather app on my phone *2024-07-10, version 5.15.407* We are making hay right now, and it’s so important to know when we’re getting moisture and when we’re not. Thank you for keeping us updated, on the important weather conditions ### 5/5 — Best plan ahead weather app out there *2023-11-10, version 5.12.701* I’m from NW ND, but I have moved out of state. There’s a lot I miss from home. My weather app is not one of them because I take it everywhere, lol. It’s the best and easiest weather app I’ve ever found. ### 5/5 — Weather *2023-09-19, version 5.10.401* Love the app , keeps me updated though out the day ### 5/5 — Love KFYR updates *2023-07-12, version 5.10.401* It keeps us updated of lightning is getting close! ### 5/5 — No Availabilty *2023-05-25, version 5.8.500* Unable to get the First Warn Weather App on my I-pad. Not in App-store, shows up as view only? ### 5/5 — Keven Lawrence *2023-04-05, version 5.7.301* Thanks to you and Heidi and Jacob and Henry love you all thanks so much for everything you do can’t wait to see you all every day ### 5/5 — Won’t load *2022-11-09, version 5.6.505* This app will not load. I have tried reinstalling etc. ### 5/5 — Does what it’s supposed to *2021-06-08, version 5.3.800* It’s a weather ap. Tells me the weather. 10/10 would recommend. ### 5/5 — Weather *2021-02-04, version 5.1.604* Great weather channel --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
