I tried limiting them via the notifications setting in the app, but, in the last half hour I got somewhere between 6 and 8 notices. This is a recent change to the way the app behaved in the past. If it continues, I will delete the app. ### 2/5 — Notifications *2023-11-07* I'm not getting any notifications at all anymore! ### 4/5 — Great app but did WSVN copy Atlanta News First? *2023-07-23, version 5.8.501* The WSVN 7Weather app was and still is a lifesaver during storms. I love how you can go into the app and get the latest without having to pay a monthly subscription or premium to do so like other weather apps such as CHIME. However, there is one flaw and it’s actually not necessary bad. When I was in Atlanta, I manly watched ANF or Atlanta News First. On day 3 or 4 of my trip, there was a thunderstorm that hit my area. I turned on the tv to Atlanta News First and after about 5 or so minutes of watching it, they began to advertise their “First Alert Weather” app which I downloaded. When I opened the app, I was shocked to see that the ANF weather app had an almost an identical graphical interface to that of WSVN. What makes this even more surprising is that ANF and WSVN have different devs. Like I said earlier, this is not necessarily bad but at least try to distinguish your graphical interface from one and other ### 2/5 — App not working *2023-04-12, version 5.7.301* App does not working correctly sometimes you get and hear notifications and sometimes you do not ### 3/5 — Weather app *2021-06-28, version 5.2.303* For some reason the app doesn’t open. It keeps crashing. ### 4/5 — GREAT UPDATE! *2013-10-23, version 2.6.3* Hello, I just wanted to say I really enjoy the new update to the 7 weather app. - I like how informative the app's menu is (SPC, open/closures, news, etc) - I love how easy and clean the daily/hourly format is. Now THAT's user friendly! - I did find one bug in the app. It's with the iPhone's orientation when sending an email (via the app's support page)... While typing the message in portrait mode you can see the message, but if you rotate the iPhone to landscape, words are cut off (like its still in portrait mode). ### 3/5 — Viewers *2013-06-08, version 1.0.2* Why doesn't this app let viewers upload videos of stories happening like it use to ### 3/5 — Keeps crashing lately.. Why? *2013-04-02, version 1.0.2* I cant rate this app bad because I love it and have Been watching it for months now. Lately it keeps crashing and it is so frustrating. What did they do all of a sudden? I have lived in Florida for 17 years, I now live in Maryland and still like to watch it every day. Can someone please fix this? ### 2/5 — Not good *2012-09-15, version 1.0.2* Extremely slow download. Crashes every other time. ### 4/5 — Very worthwhile app *2012-04-22, version 1.0.2* I see no problems with this app except I must sometimes tap the bottom buttons like Radar many times before they will work. ### 5/5 — surprised *2011-02-06, version 1.0.1* i find myself using this local weather app more than Weather Bug and TWC. good job!! ### 3/5 — did you break? *2010-10-14, version 0* The screen of weather is not displayed it gose out with the error. it moved up to now neatly, and deal, please ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Why? *2026-07-07, version 6.2.518* This last update ruined the app for me. This was always my go to app for weather. It's great that you can customize the radar map with your preferred overlays now, but you have to select your customized radar every time you open the app. If you customize the radar to how you like it, every time you open it, it should open to that map. ### 1/5 — Used be great but now audio problems *2020-05-24, version 5.0.301* I used to swear by this app but now the videos have no audio 99% of the time. The audio used to be very bad and noisy but it was live-able. I don’t know why broadcast quality audio from the tv station was so noisy but now for several months there has been no audio on the weather videos. ### 1/5 — Hate the update *2013-09-02, version 2.6.2* . ### 1/5 — Why? *2013-08-25, version 2.6.2* Why did you guys update it? I don't think there was a need to update it and change everything, I can't even find where to play the radar. I didn't have any problem with the old version, I think I liked it better because it was simple and quick. ### 1/5 — No WSVN on DirecTV *2012-01-15, version 1.0.2* Why would I need this app if I can no longer get your station on DirecTV? Worthless to me now. ### 1/5 — Awful *2011-08-03, version 1.0.1* This app needs a ton of work! Very disappointed! ### 1/5 — Needs A LOT of work *2010-12-13, version 1.0* It's a good idea. But needs a lot of work No way to change current location No settings Needs an update. ### 1/5 — App dose NOT work most of the time! *2010-12-05, version 0* App dose NOT work most of the time! It only updates once per hour ??? No dates or names of Storms are given. ### 1/5 — Freezes all the time-( *2010-09-12, version 0* Kept freezing everytime I viewed radars... When it did function, it was a great app... Pls fix it so I can download the app again ### 1/5 — Poor design forcing user to go to desktop *2010-09-07, version 0* While installing the app it told me I had to login the desktop - defeats the whole purpose of being mobile. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Deez nuts *2015-08-27, version 2.7.4* Hi ### 5/5 — Amazing *2014-03-21, version 2.6.3* I love the new and improved app! Easy & clean. Great for on the go news! Totally recommend this to everyone! ### 5/5 — Doesn't crash on me *2012-10-29, version 1.0.2* This app is great. Has weather cones, satellite, and accurate radar. I use it all the time to see where the rain is. ### 5/5 — Good *2012-07-14, version 1.0.2* Gives me the weather and that's all I needed and it's simple to use ### 5/5 — Thank You *2012-05-05, version 1.0.2* First app I download on every new phone I buy. Use it every time we jump in the boat here in the "Great Florida Keys" Sugarloaf Key Rats ### 5/5 — Great APP *2011-09-12, version 1.0.1* Good functionality and easy to use. Storm tracking models are a huge feature! ### 5/5 — Awesome local app *2011-08-23, version 1.0.1* Don't need any other app if you live in south florida. This app is your one-stop shop for West Palm/Broward/Miami-Dade counties. ### 5/5 — Storm+ *2011-08-04, version 1.0.1* Very nice I like it a lot ### 5/5 — Awesome *2011-07-07, version 1.0.1* 100% better than the weather channel app. Faster.
