Icons and view is incredibly large. You can’t see it.
The app changed about a week ago and suddenly when you open it, it is massive huge you can’t even see two other days at a time!!! This app is absolutely worthless!!!
Widgets are inaccurate.
And I hate that it forces my music to turn off whenever I open it…like no, I don’t also want the broadcast version of whatever I’m currently reading on the app.
Unusable for me
The inability to use landscape mode, or enlarge the window for iPad use makes it difficult to use. I liked the layout, but now it’s just too cumbersome and hard to use.
Poor quality app
The apps features usually never work and when you write a review, the developers simply are offended that their app doesn’t function properly when that is their responsibility. Currently, the app doesn’t open and has been this way since the new year begun.
Toooooo many ads
I’ve had the app for several months and while it does offer “some” helpful information, the ads are so bothersome. You can’t touch any portion of your screen without hitting them. Very frustrating. I can look up weather info myself w/o soliciting advertisements.
Thanks
Thank you for placing the extra future 2 hours on the radar app.
ADS ADS AND MORE ADS!
KSAT should be ashamed of itself. All these ridiculous ads that pop up when you’re trying to get real update weather info. They are never right ANYWAY… instead I use a Magic 8 ball.
Radar issues? Just me?
I can no longer see radar a couple of hours into the future using the KSAT weather app. The only option I have is the last 24 hours ending with right now-this minute. When I looked in settings, it didn’t give me an option to look at say, the next couple of hours to see if it’s gonna rain so I know to pack an umbrella. In other words, this app is almost useless to me now and I will be using others so that I can find a current radar. Is there something I’m missing? Something obvious that I can’t see to get this information?

Terrible Radar
You know that old saying: Don’t fix it if it ain’t broke? Yeah. You did that. I absolutely abhor the recent version.
Radar loop
All of a sudden I do not have the radar loop. What happened???
Amateur hour
This is one of the worst written apps I’ve ever used. Scrolling panes aren’t correctly synchronized so it’s easily possible that the weather shown doesn’t match the location shown. The home page of the app is cluttered and mostly filled with ads. The weather radar pane is vastly inferior to KSATs web site and its future projections are a joke. KSAT used to have a good weather app but somehow acquired this hunk of junk.

In serious need of improvements
This app has been my go-to for local weather for quite some time. However, the revamping of the app several months ago (editing this review as June 4, 2025, though the xperience still remains the same) hasn't made the experience very pleasant. Almost everything about the older format version was much more user-friendly including the various radar maps. For one, the app could be viewed in portrait or landscape mode, which is a big deal when using the app on an iPad, in particular, or tablets in general. This format does not allow this on an iPad. The layout was far more easier to navigate overall and less condensed; live newscast updates and important weather alerts were at the top followed by daily, hourly and weekly forecasts, pollen counts, etc., which were displayed in a way that appeared better organized whereas now everything just seems very compacted, cluttered, and thrown together. With weather updates, the user is practically directed to the website within the app versus providing the updates directly on the app. The older radar maps were simplistic yet functional and very reliable, and less difficult to navigate. This version is just all-around buggy and needs reworking. Another feature that would be extremely useful is the ability to see and toggle on and off any warnings on the radar.

So used to be better
Nobody wants to check the weather real quick only to have to wait for a 2 minutes ad EVERY SINGLE TIME. This app used to be much much better. I’m about to delete it.
Just nope…
All the adds that you can’t click out of make it unbearable to deal with. Just decided to delete it I’ll get my weather news elsewhere.
Best weather app yet
I’ve tried a lot of different weather apps over time and found that this one is one of the best in design and information all around. Perhaps a little biased towards KSAT after living in San Antonio for a couple of years back in the mid 60’s but a resounding yes to this app. It not only provides me with the weather in and around San Antonio but I also added my current location in Michigan as well as that of family and friends. Every feature of the app is well thought out. It works great on my iPhone but also my iPad with only one exception, the inability to change to landscape mode which I am always in on my iPad. Having to turn it in portrait mode is somewhat annoying but I can live with it. Perhaps in the future that feature will be made available like many apps etc. do. Overall it still is the best I’ve used to date. All I can say is get it.

Terrible
Unfortunately after the update this app has never worked properly. I like using the radar and it is TERRIBLE now. The app is also not user friendly and hard to navigate. I will be having to download a different one for reliability and usability.
Used to be good
I used to love this app. But recent updates have made me feel like maybe I should switch. When you go to forecast update you can’t even read the forecast. Every time you touch the screen anywhere on the page to scroll through the forecast it pops up with adds. Makes it impossible to view the forecast. I even deleted the app and added it back. Same thing. Sorry ksat but unless you fix this soon I am moving on.

New version IS TERRIBLE
I don’t know why they changed the app but ever since they switched over to this new version it is HORRIBLE. the old version has way better functionality. I hate having to wait after a random ad that I can’t physically skip because the button won’t work before the weather update. I also can’t turn off the captions on the videos which get in the way of the actual video. Everything feels so clunky and way worse than before. Hire a new app designer and interface designer PLEASE. The old version was perfect!

The newest update stinks!
Like others, I am not happy with this iteration of this app. Change it back! Don’t fix what is not broken.
What happened to this app
I loved this weather app. I uninstalled when the update dropped. I reinstalled to see if it has been fixed because the pictures on the app apparently hadn’t been updated. Unfortunately it’s still the new update. It’s really hard to dread anything.
