### 4/5 — Good app!

*2012-02-29, version 2.0.2*

Pretty nice app. Would be a lot better if you didn't have to keep setting your current location every time you looked at it.

### 1/5 — Freezing

*2026-01-04, version 5.17.801*

Every time you scroll down to see the weeks worth of weather it freezes like 5 times in a row it’ll freeze so you have to exit out then open again idk why it does it but happens all the time

### 1/5 — Slow data hog

*2018-07-05, version 4.6.2101*

This was a good app but now it is slow and takes a lot of data.

### 1/5 — Frustrated

*2018-05-01, version 4.6.1400*

This was hands down the best weather app I could find until .... the developers decided to “pretty it up”.   Now it takes forever to load and no matter what settings I use I only get alerts and video for the Wisconsin area.   

Bring back the basics.

### 1/5 — cut back on the notifications

*2018-03-30, version 4.6.901*

I don’t mind severe weather alerts but could go without alerts for each time a cloud enters the area.

### 1/5 — New update ui is unattractive

*2016-03-14, version 4.2.400*

There was no need to update this app. The old format was clean, sleek easy to view information you wanted. The new UI is just awkward unpleasant color scheme and layout.

### 2/5 — Use to be great!

*2020-06-05, version 5.0.400*

This use to have a great, no fantastic radar! The last couple of updates, or downgrades, have really ruined this app! The radar doesn’t load and then it shows a storm that just disappears! Wish they would go back and fix it so it works like it did. It makes me hesitant to update this app, but I don’t think it can get any worse.

### 2/5 — Used to be good....

*2018-08-05, version 4.6.2101*

This used to be my go to weather app. Now the radar takes forever to load!

### 3/5 — Too slow

*2018-06-06, version 4.6.1400*

Are used to use this app all the time and now I don’t much anymore except for the radar it’s too slow. If  I want to see the radar I’ll turn on and put it back in my pocket and look at it about 10-15 minutes later. it might be working by then what happened it used to be fast.

### 3/5 — Good app, but

*2018-05-24, version 4.6.1400*

App provides good info. It doesn’t auto rotate on my iPad.

### 3/5 — The last update

*2012-02-08, version 2.0.1*

Keeps defaulting to Hastings, Nevada. I have to reset location with every use. Quite a pain in the --! 
Please fix.

### 5/5 — Great weather app

*2024-07-26, version 5.15.411*

Look at the title

### 5/5 — Rating app.

*2022-03-17, version 5.4.921*

This is the best app. I have found informing a person of your weather. It shows the storm directions. It is very informative.  I love this app.  It has so many features that other weather app.’s don’t have.  The tracking and all the information about the storms.  Set up very easy to view and understand.  I have not found any other one that even begins to compare with this one.

### 5/5 — Weather app

*2021-07-10, version 5.3.800*

This comes in handy when you need to know what the weather is doing

### 5/5 — Best App

*2020-03-07, version 4.10.2700*

This is a great weather app! Even better than the national weather apps. Lots of information, it is organized in a clear format and is easy to navigate. FYI, all the times I have used it, never have noticed if it was really slow.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2012-02-06, version 2.0.1*

This is a very good and accurate app. Highly recommend it!

### 5/5 — best I have

*2011-04-24, version 1.6*

I use this app daily.  I felt safe the other night when the light went out and all I had to know what was going on outside was skywatch5.  Very accurate. I called my daughter telling her storms were on the way to her area.  Now she has the app.  Gives details concerning alerts. 10 day forcast also gives details.  I have lived through a tornado so I do get scared when bad weather is in my area, I now can say I feel a little safer with this app.

### 5/5 — Excellent App

*2011-03-27, version 1.6*

It's got everything you need when searching for the weather where you live, short of having a person tell you about the weather personally.  I highly recommend getting it.

### 4/5 — Local4 weather channel app

*2021-06-23, version 5.3.800*

I like the app, I like getting the alerts.
The alerts are very helpful.
I don’t like not being able to share anything.
I have family and friends around the Local4 area, and there are times, I would really like to share with them.
They are not always where they are near a tv.
Please make things shareable.

### 4/5 — Best coverage for NC Kansas

*2021-05-11, version 5.3.500*

Best timely coverage of NC Ks

### 4/5 — Great app, but....

*2012-05-04, version 2.0.3*

Need to fix problem with selecting default location and the app does not appear in the notification center so can't get alerts on iPhone screen if app is running in background. Fix these and you get 5 stars.
