### 3/5 — So far not impressed

*2025-01-22, version 5.17.507*

When I try to use the app it freezes so I have to go in and out of it a couple of times before it unfreezes so I can look at the weather for the week

### 3/5 — Says it will stream news. Not

*2024-03-07, version 5.13.804*

Streams news for a while and then quits. Has no problems playing advertising can’t find a way to send in a problem report.

### 4/5 — One of the best.

*2022-10-24, version 5.6.503*

The weather watches and warning are timely, radar features are fast and accurate, information is updated regularly and key regional data is unsurpassed.  The personalities are relatable and professional. Hence better than The Weather Channel…imho.
The only negative, therefore the lack of 5 star, I am not a video fan, more data oriented.

### 4/5 — Comment

*2022-07-25, version 5.5.702*

No.

### 2/5 — Update

*2022-05-24, version 5.5.702*

Needs updating on weekends!

### 4/5 — Why does radar stop working?

*2021-10-13, version 5.2.303*

This is my favorite go-to weather radar — until it stops working, which happens too often.  I love the easy readability of this radar because I can quickly see what’s going on.  But, much too often, it freezes up and won’t refresh, so I have to look at a similar radar from a TV station 150+ miles in a different direction!

### 5/5 — Great weather app for local info

*2014-02-19, version 2.7.1*

I love this app!! It is great for local content as well as national weather. I like how it follows you no matter where you are and warns you if you are in a place that has had an alert issued. I also like that I can watch the live news stream for KTEN. The new update is nice as well.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — New update bad

*2026-06-13, version 6.2.512*

The latest update is horrible.

### 1/5 — wants to send WAY too much worthless information

*2026-04-28, version 6.1.603*

i live in a rural area and the only way to have internet when power goes out is celluar.  just went through a tornado warning and could not get any updates as the kten page needs more bandwidth then a cell tower has when you have hundreds getting on it to check the weather.
you need to do some serious trimming of the data that no one wants or need

### 1/5 — Radar is possibly the worst!

*2025-07-04, version 5.17.507*

This is quite possibly the worst radar out there and is oddly different from what they even show on their tv radar! How?! Sadly disappointing!!

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2025-06-19, version 5.17.507*

Radar is always off. No live up to the minute info. App constantly crashes. Weather alerts are behind. These people get paid to be meteorologist but don’t go live in tornadic activity or anything. We don’t need them anymore now that the government manufactures our weather. We just look for the Chen trails. Fake news. Fake weather. Sounds about right. Put THAT on tiktok.

### 1/5 — Hey hello this is Denison!!! We’re still here but all we hear about is Oklahoma while being hit hard

*2025-06-05, version 5.17.507*

Need a Texas representative

### 1/5 — 11:30pm alerts

*2023-01-03, version 5.6.503*

I don’t need an alert in the middle of the night letting me know I can click their link to see if the weather is going to be nice or stormy.  This app has very annoying alerts that has nothing to do with severe weather.

### 1/5 — Video loading issues

*2020-09-02, version 5.0.801*

Like the layout of the app. Video loading is terrible. Not sure why it stopped loading. Please address.

### 1/5 — Additional charge

*2017-08-18, version 2.7.2*

If you don't buy the upgrade within the app it's  pretty much the same thing You get from Apple. The current temp and a vague forecast.

### 1/5 — App does not work at all

*2014-11-11, version 2.7.1*

The app loaded fine and worked for a while. Paid for premium version and then it quit working. Do not buy this app!! Waste of money. Grrrrr. Doesn't work at all.

### 2/5 — Too many alerts!

*2022-08-01, version 5.6.503*

It’s hot in July!  Duh!  You really have to bug my every couple of hours to tell me that?

### 5/5 — Great weather app for a change!

*2023-06-16, version 5.8.501*

Thank you for actually building an app that is effective and insightful. The giant NOAA Clime app can’t even get it right. 
And I absolutely love the verbal notifications of weather warnings.

### 5/5 — Very good app, excellent personal.

*2023-06-10, version 5.8.501*

Lie the “to the point” approach.and accurate, information is updated regularly and key regional data is unsurpassed. The personalities are relatable and professional. Hence better than The Weather Channel…imho. The only negative, therefore the lack of 5 star, I am not a video fan, more data oriented.
