## Most critical reviews (8 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Bugs

*2020-05-31, version 5.0.401*

I constantly get a "not available in your area" message when I try to open this. I live in Three Lakes! Fix the bug please!

### 2/5 — Radar stopped working

*2026-06-10, version 6.1.501*

Radar shows data that is weeks old.

### 2/5 — New Update

*2026-02-08, version 6.1.501*

The new update is good and all, however the map doesn’t allow advisories and radar on at the same time. This is an issue come summertime when there’s severe weather

### 3/5 — Used to be wonderful. Update not good.

*2019-07-01, version 4.8.901*

Latest update...Please, please fix the too dark satellite map. Used to be good. Now way too dark and lacks the resolution of the previous version.
I LOVED this app. It was just updated and is not as good. Satellite view is too dark. Speed of cloud/storm movement is much to fast. It is a shame since all the other online weather sites have been ruined. This was my go-to app. Now, not sure it will remain so unless it gets fixed.

### 4/5 — Northern Wisconsin weather guide is accurate

*2023-01-18, version 5.7.203*

Have used this app for years. Since NBC affiliate is located in Rhinelander it’s quite accurate for the northern region of the state.  Seems to be updated several times daily.

### 5/5 — Simple and Straightforward!

*2023-04-10, version 5.7.203*

I’ve been trying one weather app after another for a while now.  All I want is the current and a couple days guesses. 
This one will make you happy if you’re not looking for a psychic reading as well. Not a lot of ads, perfect radar, and a couple of days notice of bad weather… what did I miss?  Oh yea, nothing and yes it’s free.

### 5/5 — Best Weather App

*2019-09-07, version 4.10.600*

I live in the Chicago area and heard of this app on a trip to the Northwoods. I’ve used numerous weather apps, both local Chicago as well as national apps and now use only this app. By far the best I’ve come across!

### 5/5 — WJFW APP

*2019-02-26, version 4.7.800*

Best. I have many weather apps. This is my “GO TO” app for my location, Phelps, WI. I use it every day.
