### 2/5 — Radar nice but not always correct

*2023-07-01*

6 hour n 24 hour radar views don’t start showing the same information. Then depending on how you zoom in or out on either radar view can give you conflicting storm data. Then they are times where the radar just starts flashing and you have to kill the app and start over.   Too bad as the radar features of the app used to work almost flawlessly and now I need to confirm by going to another app.

### 3/5 — Need a Widget

*2021-02-20*

Need a Widget.  Does seem to be more accurate locally than national apps.

### 1/5 — Radar doesn’t work right

*2026-07-05*

Radar is not updating.  Appears to be nothing but a screen shot of the storm two weeks ago.   Have reinstalled the app and no change.

### 1/5 — Map is broken

*2026-06-27*

The maps showing precipitation are broken and cause the app to crash. I have downloaded the app several times and the issue keeps happening.

### 1/5 — Radar broken

*2026-06-24*

Your app needs fixed. The radar part is broken and closes the app when i try to move the timer slider.

### 1/5 — Map update made it worse

*2026-03-11, version 6.1.601*

The maps function was absolutely perfect until you updated it. Now it’s annoying and no where near as good. Please make the map go back to the way it was. The storm tracks is all messed up and the weather warnings block out the radar image. You can change how light or dark the perception is, but the warnings absolutely cover the radar perception. Please fix it.

### 1/5 — Sending out too many minute notices that are not accurate

*2023-07-02*

The notification on “ going to rain in 9 minutes” is totally uncalled for .  Please stop being in our faces with these unnecessary texts.  They are inaccurate and worthless.

### 1/5 — Worse wx app ever!

*2023-05-07*

This app never works when you really need to view the weather!  Expecting bad weather, sirens going off, hail happening, rain coming down hard and this app for our area shows absolutely nothing on the radar!  Horrible app!

### 1/5 — Angela

*2019-07-11*

Terrible forecast. It’s been cloudy since mid morning and it’s almost 1:30 pm. Has said Sunny all day. This is so typical of WICS. WAND WX says party to mostly cloudy. I’m going with their App instead. Very disappointing.

### 1/5 — Ch 20 and Sinclair Broadcast are CODE DEAD!

*2019-06-09*

Delete the news and their weather apps.  Email and call all advertisers to advise them to pull any ad $$$.   Show them the viewers are behind Joe Crain and his objective criticism of their asinine CODE RED weather alerts.  Tell the advertisers to move to WAND and WCIA as that is were the viewers are going in protest!!!

### 2/5 — No News Feed

*2026-03-05*

I’m not sure what’s going on but I used to be able to watch livestream videos of the news, Alerts and weather reports. Now I Only receive updates on the weather radar. Very frustrating! I relayed on this app heavily.

### 2/5 — Radar

*2023-07-12*

I like the app but the radar is frequently not working effectively which makes it unreliable

### 5/5 — Weather ready

*2026-06-24*

We like watching you because we are East of your forecast.

### 5/5 — User guide

*2025-04-04*

It is missing when I access ?

### 5/5 — Real time:

*2023-06-25*

Love the radar feature !

### 5/5 — Best weather app I’ve used

*2022-09-29*

I love how easy to use this weather app is. Also, love how the data is entered in by the meteorologists themselves. That is the strength of the app. Whereas, other apps may rely one one model or a computer throwing data at you. Also, great for me because I live in the stations viewing area so local forecasts are better than a national app.

### 5/5 — Can’t get weather right

*2020-04-29*

You need to bring back weather forecast that used to work you

### 5/5 — WICS WX App

*2014-04-03*

A very good app love it!!! Easy to use!!!

### 4/5 — Temperatures off

*2025-09-20*

I would send a screen pic but it states for 9/20 at 1:30 pm 67 degrees but time wise it should be 87?

### 4/5 — Reloading issue

*2025-04-04*

This is my go to weather app but lately have been frustrated with loading. At times during weather emergencies I need to flip between different map apps and when i come back to this app I have to wait for the welcome screen to load again before it goes back to the map view. I don’t close the app and just want to immediately go back to the map but it doesn’t do so.

### 4/5 — Don’t want to write review

*2024-06-04*

More accurate than what apple presets on phone

### 4/5 — Ack!  They removed earthquakes!

*2022-12-18*

Was a great app. Then they removed earthquakes. Was 5 stars.
