WTHR Live Doppler 13 Weather User Reviews

Ads ads ads

The ads on this app are RIDICULOUS. Multiple, full page ads - on top of each other - on EVERY page.
There’s more ad content than real content.
Until that’s resolved - 0/10, cannot recommend.

Interactive glitch?

Since the new Interactive radar has come out, I can only access it once, then if I go back to it, it’s just a black screen.

Just advertising

I've had the app for well over a year and appreciated the notifications when severe weather is coming to my specific area.
But the app itself is nearly impossible to navigate because of the obtrusive ads. I've not been able to access the video forecast because of them.

Added Click Bait Blogs

As far as Weather related alerts, lightning, strikes warnings, etc.. the app is fine. Unfortunately, they’ve recently started to push some of their blog post with click bait titles to the app. Absolutely not.

What happened?

I’ve had this app for years and have loved it… but for the past few months it hasn’t been showing over half the info… the currents are gone, hourly is gone, daily is still there but most forecasts are gone as well… it’s frustrating because I love a reliable weather app but I can’t use it anymore so there’s no point in keeping it.

Great station but app is all ads

Sooooo many ads you are so busy turning them all off you never get the weather

Useless

We’re under tornado warnings. But it’s not possible to get real time nor without wading through ads. What crap.

App doesn’t work

Wthr weather app was my go to for several years. I have not updated the app in several months until recently. Now the app loads but with TONS of pop up ads. :( I just want to see the video forecast. Video never plays now. App is useless.

Too many commercials!

I love WTHR and the weather team. But unfortunately the wx app plays commercials before you can look at radar and other features. Pass.

The best forecast no so much with app

The best forecast but no so much to say about the app. Cluttered up with advertisements making this app very hard to navigate. The accuracy of the meteorological team is by far the only reason to load this app. I’ve worked in the green industry scheduling a team of outdoor workers for as long as I’ve lived in Indiana and followed AB and CL fir the most accurate forecast for years before they were on the same team. I’m most likely to continue with to the old way and catch the forecast on the tv.

Wrong weather

It says 0% chance of rain as it’s raining says it will be 86 degrees when it’s only 71 and all other apps show it not getting any hotter

I’m disappointed

I had the other App for years it served me globally and was a lifeline through many dangerous storms globally
And then one day you change it
And I can no longer use it because I have an I phone that had as 12.5 operating system.. I’m just disappointed
It’s like losing a trusted friend....

The new updates have an issue

Prior to the last two updates, the app would appear in landscape mode, now it is only in portrait mode. Please update so that those of us who have our iPads on a keyboard don't have to turn it 90 degrees to use the app. This is an inconvenience.

Disappointing

I do not like this latest update. Supposed to be more up to date but looks like several steps backward. Very plain, and has less information than before such as wind speed. I’m looking for a different weather app now. So disappointed.

Bad update

I use this app daily, but the most recent update is not great. It’s not playing well with my iPad. The app will not rotate now into a landscape mode. I am also finding it not as easy to find what I am looking for.

Bad updates

This app used to be good a few years ago, but they keep updating it with new features and cosmetic updates that bring nothing to the table. They keep changing how the interactive radar looks, they keep changing the main menu style. Channel 13 in general has been on the decline. But it gives you basic information which I guess is all you need. It just shows they aren’t making as much money as they used to lol.

Delivery driver

I’m a delivery driver in Bloomington. I used this app for years. It was pretty accurate, I’m assuming because it used the radar at the small airport here, and didn’t have many ads or random banners to accidentally click on. I need to know what the weather is, I need the forecast, and I need it to be faster and less frustrating then just using google. I’m not sure when the change to this less accurate more ad intensive-(more frustrating) Version happened. But in my opinion if the experience isn’t better and easier to use then just googling the weather, then it’s not worth it to me personally. Skip this ad heavy app. It’s frustrating to deal with, way less accurate then it was a few years ago, and google is now the better option.

Very annoying ads!

You can’t see the current weather blog updates without fighting your way through a full screen ad. Probably will just stick with the Weather Channel

Video Forecast is old

What!! Why is the video forecast 3 days old? “Apparently,” it’s forecast for the week beginning on Monday. Why doesn’t your website update from the evening weather report? This app is a joke! Come on!!

What happened?

Used to love this app. Now it’s sending me notifications that don’t apply to my location. Please fix!
