### 3/5 — ok app

*2026-06-10, version 6.1.601*

The radar stopped working two days ago and still isn’t functioning. overall I like the app but not having the radar sucks.

### 1/5 — Do not like newest version

*2026-03-16, version 6.1.601*

There is a five minute gap between the past and the future radar! Whenever we have a tornado warning i have the local tv on and my app because tv show other areas at the storm etc. I couldn’t follow with this version for todays tornado warning 3-16-26 , on tv WXII radar was red all around and on top of me but the app had red north and green over me,, very dangerous, i know what im looking at because i love weather stuff, and keep my kids and parents up to date when warnings come up. This app is like all other weather apps that look the same now. I don’t mind things changing but this is just too different and useless now for up to minute watching.

### 3/5 — Dislike Last few updates loops too fast!

*2026-03-16, version 6.1.601*

Please slow down the radar “past” looping.  Goes to fast. Your app has consistently been my favorite go-to radar, but I’m looking for others since you’ve changed it. Put the looping back the way it was a month or so ago.

### 1/5 — iPhone app issues

*2024-07-12, version 5.15.407*

Not sure what is going on with the app. My husband has an android phone and his app and mine have totally different information. Not sure what is going on if something to do with iPhone latest update. Todays current temperature reads as 25 it’s 90 something outside. iPhone app issues must have just started because I have been using everyday for weather for years.

### 5/5 — Great local weather app ⛅️🌧️🌩️

*2024-03-31, version 5.13.804*

Switched from Weather Channel to the WFMY Weather app and it’s even better than the pay app 🎉🎉

### 1/5 — Glitch in app

*2023-10-13, version 5.11.503*

Has stopped working since IOS 17 installed

### 1/5 — New Glitch

*2023-09-10, version 5.10.506*

I normally love this app and is usually an excellent weather source, but it now has a problem where the screen goes into video play mode (black screen with play button and X to close) when you tap on the mode at the bottom of the screen. I tried closing, uninstalling and reinstalling. I even turned my phone off and on again, but nothing changes so I’m posting this review. I hope it can be fixed. Until then I will probably stop using the app.

### 5/5 — 13 years with an iPhone, this is my only review

*2021-12-15, version 5.4.940*

This is by far the best weather app. Always accurate and I love that it has a “follow me” feature which provides me with the best forecast wherever I travel. I don’t review apps (positive or negative), but this one deserves the credit it is due.

### 1/5 — Virus

*2021-09-26, version 5.3.902*

This app acts like a virus. It opens when you click on links in other apps.

### 5/5 — Best weather app

*2020-12-07, version 5.1.402*

Use it daily to determine weather changes and when to anticipate.  Most reliable source.
