It kept sending me alerts saying that there was snow in the area. So I’d open the app and your map had no snow. Deleted. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — KOTA News @ 17:30 *2026-03-09, version 6.1.601* This is the main News & Weather Station I watch it covers NE WY, Montana SE Corner,Black Hills and surrounding areas!! Like tonight I was actually here and awake, excited to watch the weather…..up next….well the sports was up? Anyway no weather again!!! Not again ### 1/5 — Not an efficient app. *2024-10-27* Received a weather alert it takes you to the page After several commercials with audio it plays without the audio. Frustrating ### 1/5 — Annoying advertisement *2022-07-15, version 5.4.933* That advertisement at the beginning of the forecast is very annoying! Too long!!! ### 1/5 — Weather news *2022-07-05, version 5.4.933* Watching a commercial before getting a weather alert is not idea. People need the alert before the commercial so they can take cover if needed so they do not die in a tornadoe!!! ### 1/5 — 1 minute Ad’s for 5 second videos *2022-06-20, version 5.4.933* It’s a bit much. ### 1/5 — To hard to get quick info *2021-07-03, version 5.3.800* I am deleting the KOTA weather app. I got an alert that there was a severe storm warning, but I couldn’t find any information on this app. As far as I’m concerned it’s worthless, unless you want to see adds for Denny Menholt car dealerships. ### 1/5 — Current location access *2020-06-23, version 5.0.400* This app has always worked for me until last week. Whenever I open the app it tells me it cannot access my current location and will not allow me to change the location, very disappointed as I am a Rancher and rely heavily on this information and app. Please help. ### 1/5 — Kota weather app *2019-05-16, version 4.8.401* Slowest loading app I have ever used ### 1/5 — to rain or not to rain???? *2018-09-02, version 4.6.2101* It is pouring rain outside. why is there nothing showing on the radar???? ### 1/5 — Commercial city *2018-03-11, version 4.6.600* I had used this app for years, until they “updated” it...now it has soooooo many commercials you have to hunt for the local weather...DELETED!! ## Most praised reviews (9 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — So reliable *2026-08-19, version 6.2.604* Love Kota Weather ### 5/5 — KOTA …. *2024-08-14, version 5.15.417* The only way to go 👍🏿👍🏿 and A+++ ### 5/5 — Good weather app. *2022-12-23, version 5.7.112* This is the most accurate weather for my area. ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-02-24, version 5.4.933* My go to weather app. They pretty much nail it for our area. A lot closer to what really happens in our area then any other app. Thanks keep up the good work. ### 5/5 — Accurate and true *2021-09-26, version 5.3.800* Local and still very detailed recommend for all black hills travelers and locals ### 5/5 — Favorite Weather App *2016-06-26, version 4.2.901* This is my absolute favorite weather app! It can notify me of severe weather anywhere I go, with the current location setting. Not only that, I can add locations by dragging the dot right to a spot I want weather specifically for. Simply an amazing app! ### 3/5 — Freezes up *2020-01-15, version 4.10.2401* This app has always been working well but lately it freezes up and I have to delete and reinstall it. It’s very helpful to get weather updates when it’s working! Hope they fix the issues! ### 2/5 — Bad *2021-08-14, version 5.3.800* Stupid add covers everything and won’t go away ### 2/5 — So inaccurate *2021-07-03, version 5.3.800* Done with this app. The only time this app may be correct is at the current moment. Bye bye. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
