ok app

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

Do not like newest version

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.

Dislike Last few updates loops too fast!

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.

iPhone app issues

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.

Great local weather app ⛅️🌧️🌩️

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

Glitch in app

Has stopped working since IOS 17 installed

New Glitch

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.

13 years with an iPhone, this is my only review

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.

Virus

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

Best weather app

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

News 2 app review

Your app seems fine once it opens. It takes so long for it to open. I have 4 devices and it is like that on all of them. It would be nice if you could work on how fast it opens up.

Zimmerman Carpet & Rug Cleaners

Over the past 40 years of our business service to the Triad we have used WFMY throughout each winter to decide if we needed to heat our carpet cleaning vans to keep them from freezing. They have been impressively accurate. We also really enjoy the ease and flow of their weather app. Thank you News 2 for helping us keep our equipment from freezing… Not even once!

I was wrong!

I was skeptical, but I find that my skepticism was totally unfounded. The service is accurate and dependable. Frankly, I have zero negative issues to report.

Very accurate

As someone that works outside and also spends a lot time riding motorcycles in the mountains of Tennessee and North Carolina, having an accurate weather forecast is important. At one time I had 4 different weather apps on my phone, over a period of several months I would monitor the accuracy of each App eliminating the most inaccurate one. Eventuality the WFMY weather App was the only one remaining. Now weather is a science of prediction, a very educated guess, and no one is 100% right but I found WFMY to be the most accurate over all. It’s the only weather App left on my phone.

Works like a charm most of the time

Works like a charm on my iPad Air most of the time ....but storm front radar tracking doesn’t load the storm front images from time to time, and I have to go to my back up weather apps.
Otherwise, this is my go app.

NO Notifications

One reason for having the weather app is severe weather alerts/notifications. Earlier this evening, there was a tornado warning for my area and I had no clue! I checked settings in this app, all notifications were turned on. Then, I checked the settings on my phone for this app, every possible notification was turned on.
Thank goodness my son called to make sure that I was aware of the tornado warning!
There’s no point in keeping this app if the notifications don’t work!!

Best weather app BUT...

Found out yesterday, it used 33% of my battery time during the day for “background activities.” Didn’t realize I had to formally “close” it. I will from now on, and be super careful when and how I use it.

No longer opens

Loved this app but after phone update it will no longer open on my iPhone 7. Will have to delete and go back to weather channel ;(

Crash

Running OS 13.3. The app no longer opens! Waiting for update. Moving to WRAL in the interim. This app is better... when it works.
Good news! Around January 6th, the update came through and we’re back in business!

What’s wrong with this app

This was a great app till a couple weeks ago. Now I have to power off my iPhone and then it will work till I out of the app 🤨🤨👎👎👎
