User reviews

Weather app isn’t as good as it used to be

The radar screen used to allow you to follow tropical storms and hurricanes. You could tap on an icon to see wind speeds and other information but not anymore. Just found another app that STILL has this feature. Goodbye wkrg weather app!

Terrible app

Alerts do not function as set. You are alerted at 3 am regardless of whether the alerts are turned completely off or not. Finally gave up and just deleted the app.

A lot great information for free!

Most weather apps want you to subscribe to get all that you get here. We really appreciate the radar giving us an overlay of the NWS warnings. We live in an area with a lot of tornadoes and it can be hard to tell what path they are taking without seeing the polygon. This app gives you the polygons.

The newest update

Please change this app to what it was before, I absolutely despise the new version/update. It’s horrible

Bring back satellite view

Your new “modern look” to the map background has caused complaints by my mother and her friends. They want the satellite view back, because they don’t look at streets—they look at terrain via satellite photography. That’s why they used your app in the first place. And they are now looking for a replacement for your app after you broke it.

If you add the option to put the satellite view back, that would fix this issue.
