This can be awkward when you just wanted to check the weather and your phone starts blaring some ad in a setting where it may not be appropriate ### 2/5 — Too many ads *2018-06-23, version 4.6.1604* I’d love to use this app. I mean it’s well-designed it’s from a local television company I just don’t understand why they need so many cheesy ads. Do They not know that people will uninstall it! It’s a huge turn off??? ### 1/5 — How many times *2018-04-27, version 4.5.1801* How many times in one day do I have to update? Everytime I updated the app it would appear again, not worth the time ### 2/5 — Too many ads! *2017-12-19, version 4.5.1801* I love the app if I would actually be able to use it. I can't even read the forecast because every time I start to another ad pops up! ### 1/5 — Keeps crashing!!! *2015-01-04, version 3.1.1100* I just down loaded this app and as soon as it loads all the info.... it crashes!!! WTH!!! Free or not, it's gone. To bad. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Deleted it after years of use *2026-04-14, version 6.1.601* I have been using this for years because it has a great track record for accurate weather however, with the new pop up video ads they implemented I am absolutely furious. There is no way to turn them off. I have deleted the app and now I’m looking for a different source for my weather. ### 1/5 — Was great, no so much now *2026-04-09, version 6.1.601* I have loved this app, it has been my go to for weather across the country for 2 years now. Recently an update brought in pop-up ads that remind me of a pay to play video game. Ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Hate the full screen video Ads *2020-11-28, version 5.0.1006* Going elsewhere. Would return to this app if the annoying full screen ads were eliminated. ### 1/5 — No way to exit the blaring pop up ad *2020-09-19, version 5.0.902* I’m finding another weather app. Sick of the blaring pop ups with no way to close or silence, i.e. the robocall ad. It’s more annoying than the actual robocall. ### 1/5 — Ads *2020-06-27, version 5.0.400* I understand free apps need ads, but this is next level! ### 1/5 — Won’t Open Most of the Time *2020-01-12, version 4.10.2100* Have downloaded three times and it usually only will open nine times out of ten. I give up. ### 1/5 — Ads.....☹️ *2019-09-15, version 4.10.900* Like the app. Tired of the ads popping up when I all I want is the weather. Add a paid version to get rid of them or scale the ad placement back. The news app is no different! ### 1/5 — Ad city *2019-08-06, version 4.10.501* Your video ads are annoying. Seriously every single time I click on radar I am forced to watch another video. No thanks there’s about 10,000 weather apps to choose from. Goodbye ### 1/5 — Didn’t need to change the maps *2019-05-30, version 4.8.600* Wish they didn’t mess with the map it was find how it was ### 1/5 — World’s worst weather app *2018-07-06, version 4.6.1604* WANE needs to trash this app and start over. It only opens 50% of the time on iOS devices. Use Weather Underground, that works 100%, all the time. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great app! *2022-02-16, version 5.4.940* This app has really improved. No more blaring popup ads, easy to navigate, and lots of good information. I use it multiple times a day to stay current. ### 5/5 — I love Weather!!!! *2021-02-06, version 5.1.403* Heyyyyy allll! My name is Isabel and i absolutely love weather!!!!!! Wane Wx is my absolute favorite! Yasssss Queen! ### 5/5 — The newest update saved the app *2019-06-02, version 4.8.600* I can use the future setting again and the entire radar is nice and sleek. ### 4/5 — I like the app but *2015-02-04, version 3.4.202* The app is very good except I cannot get sound from the video forecast, and yes I have my volume up! I tried to reload app,but still the same. I'm using an iPhone 6 ### 3/5 — Annoyed *2025-06-19, version 5.17.613* Really loved this app until a few days ago when it started having a popup ad when switching from weekly to hourly weather. I hate having my morning coffee in peace, while checking weather & a noisy ad pops up. I would’ve gave it 5 stars before the ads started. ### 3/5 — Radar *2024-08-29* Your 24 hr radar is now freezing after only 12 hrs ### 3/5 — Pop up Ad is really annoying *2016-06-20, version 4.2.601* App is pretty good and I like the radar. However the constant pop up ad is really distracting. Hope that is done away soon. ### 3/5 — Okay *2015-01-08, version 3.1.1100* I like that there is a local weather app and I like the station, however the app needs some tweaking. The sound isn't working on the videos and when I first downloaded the app it took a while for it to even work properly. I like the alerts and notifications along with the general set up of the app, just needs some fixing. ### 2/5 — Hate the changes! *2026-03-24, version 6.1.601* I really loved this app and used it all the time. Best weather app with radar for my area, by far! But now I hate it because of all the pop-up ads. They’re loud, even when I have my phone on silent, and come out of nowhere. And you can’t close them easily once they time out. I have to close the app and reopen it just to get rid of them. Super annoying! Now I find myself avoiding using this app and using other weather apps instead. I may even uninstall if nothing changes. ### 2/5 — Radar *2022-12-31, version 5.7.112* The radar needs upgrading. Goes for hours with no graphics. I have started going to Weather Channel or Accuweather when I want to see the radar. Not my phone. Other weather radar’s are fine. Needs fixing. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
