### 2/5 — Inconsistent

*2023-09-25, version 5.11.502*

The app is different from what channel 6 tv says. Future cast is very inaccurate and usually different from the channel 6 tv forecast. Their app will show rain in my area, yet the sun is shining. Or vice versa….

### 3/5 — Inconsistent

The app is different from what channel 6 tv says. Future cast is very inaccurate and usually different from the channel 6 tv forecast.

### 1/5 — Bad radar

*2023-07-02, version 5.10.500*

Most of the time the radar doesn’t work

### 5/5 — App needs a bug fix

*2023-06-27, version 5.10.401*

I love the radar presentation. 2 stars is because it either stops showing or just keeps flashing on and off. I delete the app and reload but the issue is still there. This happens on the iphone snd ipad

### 1/5 — Radar

*2023-06-20, version 5.10.401*

Don’t like the new radar map go back to the local map make it start with local map if I want national radar then I can switch it

### 1/5 — App Transport Security problem

*2022-06-05, version 5.4.945*

When I try to read the news on the WJAC weather app, I get a notice regarding App Transport Security. What do I do? Is anyone else getting this error beside my wife and me? I can’t find any help from WJAC because I can’t figure out how to contact them. Help me please.

### 5/5 — Radar

*2019-11-09, version 4.10.1602*

The best feature is the satellite map with radar. I can find my house on the satellite radar map and see what precipitation is happening at my house! I give that 5 stars. No other radar map has the satellite image that I have seen out there.

### 5/5 — Best of the best!

*2016-02-08, version 3.9.701*

Could you give me an idea of how many times the app. Has been downloaded. Here in Western Pennsylvania, I have always considered WJAC RADAR the best of the region. I love every feature! So to be honest, I could not give you any idea on how to improve it at all. It is awesome all around. And would be very surprised, that it was not one of the most downloaded. I thank you all so much, you honestly have no idea.

### 3/5 — Good app, except for notifications

*2014-09-02, version 2.7.15*

App works well, except for severe weather alerts. My county experienced a severe thunderstorm warning and a tornado warning today, and I never got a notification despite having set them up. Good thing I still have the Weather Channel app, since its notifications worked. This is a pretty important feature that needs fixed.
