Failure

We’ve depended on WTVA weather since the 80’s. Yes Matt left, but how did it take such a short amount of time to fall so severely short of being reliable and present? Present is the biggest part. Absolutely dropped the ball during the January freeze. Y’all went out of your way to show us how little it mattered. What shame

Horrible ADS

I have always loved this app but all of a sudden you have ads that pop up every few minutes and it is ridiculous! I am deleting this app. Completely not worth it! Sad this has turned into garbage.

Freezing ads.

This new ad that pops up as soon as you log on before you can see anything freezes my screen almost every time.

Live weather

Every time I try watch the live broadcast the app crashes

Don’t bother

Don’t bother downloading it. After they let Matt go their reliability is 0% I’m getting notifications for “storms” 20 miles away, they let you know about storm warning 2-3 hours AFTER the storm has PASSED OVER YOU. There are far more reliable apps that can get you to safety in unsafe weather. I recommend Emergency from Red Cross or MS Live. They provide far better reports and keep you informed in dangerous weather. DON’T DOWNLOAD THIS ULEAS YOU WANT TO KNOW YOU’RE HOUSE IS GONE TWO HOURS AFTER ITS GONE!

Dead zone

New Owners. Dead Zone News Station.

Ruined it.

I’ll be following Matt to MS Live Weather. The WTVA app has always been a little bit of a mess, but at least it had Matt.

I LOVE IT

BEST WEATHER APP EVERRRRR

Matt is my go too!

Will follow Matt anywhere. Uninstalling yall!

Voice Over

It puts the Matt voice back

New voice notifications are awful

I don’t know why you changed the voice from Matt to something/someone else, but I don’t like it. I could hear Matt’s voice much better. I’m used to it so when I hear this other it’s weird and kinda annoying. Please, change it back to Matt’s voice.

The robot voice is too creepy

Why did yall change the notification voice from Matt to some robot it’s creepy change it back

Very helpful

Thanks WTVA for all the weather alerts and warnings it is so helpful

Not accurate

What is the point of using an app that doesn’t use local meteorologists? Laying off the most popular and beloved meteorology team in the state to guess the weather from 11 hours away was a mistake.

Deleting due to Matt being fired

Matt always kept us up to date and safe in the north Ms region. He was recently let go so I will no longer support without him there. GG’s

Force closure

Continues to force close when I try to look at the ten day forecast

Works Best For Me!!!

It actually tells me when lightening strikes, it is always accurate!!! It helps me to prepare anytime I plan for something and don’t want to be in the middle of a storm or rain. It is very helpful!!!

Looking Great

The latest updates really have the app looking polished and performing well. Great work.

Love alerts! Love they're Matt's voice but

It messes me up everyday that you can't rewind the video you're watching. You'd think I would learn, but I think I spend so much more time watching YouTube or tv or ANYTHING where you can adjust the slider at the bottom. Usually I've have to sit through commercials and a minute and half of weather idc about. My mind has wandered by the time they say why I actually needed to hear & I miss it. And a.out fail I reach up and try to slightly rewind, and without fail it starts over. Ppl consume so much video online from tik tok to tv to everything in between and a play all the way through or start at the beginning technology just isn't acceptable. (Love Matt and John. They redeem you from 2 stars!)

Intrusive full screen pop-up ads with volume blasting

I used this app for 4-5 years but was disappointed with the low quality ads. The ads grew progressively worse with the last straw being a full screen animation with obnoxious blaring volume.
