Thanks for the tip about the space station! Love your weather, Spencer! ### 2/5 — What happened *2026-04-28, version 6.1.601* Until today I could see hourly. Today is Monday and the hourly is starting with Wednesday. What happened to Tuesday or even today Monday April 27. ### 2/5 — So Sorry I updated *2026-01-26, version 6.1.302* They really messed up the Maps!! ### 2/5 — Radar problems *2025-08-02, version 5.17.706* It may be storming all over us but the radar is blank too many times. Not a single cloud or anything. I have to go to WBIR to get accurate radar!! WVLT is my channel and I don’t understand the issue!! Please fix it!! ### 3/5 — 24 Hour Future Radar only does 12 hrs *2025-06-07, version 5.17.511* Most of the time the 24 hour future radar only covers about 12 hrs until the radar data stops but the timeline continues. It would also be nice to have a place for a bug report without having to write a complaining review on an otherwise pretty good app. ### 3/5 — Daily Precipitation Is Wrong v Daily Detail *2025-05-17, version 5.17.511* It's nice to have the radar at your fingertips. The forecasted radar is helpful, but I wish it covered a few more hours. Unfortunately, when you look at the "Daily" summary, the percentage chance of precipitation often does not match the details when you click for that. For example: "daily" chance of rain showed 5%, but the summary showed 40% in the morning and 90% in the evening. I was told by the station representative that the "Daily" summary is only for "daytime," however, the numbers often don't even match for just morning, either. Farmers need a DAILY summary, at a glance, instead of having to click each day to read the fine print of morning and evening. It's easier to go to another source to get a daily forecast of precipitation, rather than having to click each day's details. When somebody's trying to decide whether to cut hay, it's better to have an actual 24-hour daily precipitation forecast immediately. Or, the daily summary could be changed to have both "morning" and "evening" precipitation forecast percentages given at a glance. ### 2/5 — Confusing *2025-04-19, version 5.17.511* When you click on the WVLT Weather three screens open up all with ads playing and you just don’t know where to click. It’s very confusing if you get it fixed, I’ll update this review ### 4/5 — Hair *2025-03-07, version 5.17.511* What’s going on with Kyle’s hair????? Weird ### 4/5 — Fix or Rename the 24 hr Radar *2024-10-31, version 5.16.1703* I’ve used the app since it was released years ago and Love it!! A couple of updates ago, the 24 hr Radar stops screenshot models at 12 hrs but the timeline keeps advancing to 24 hrs and then repeats. I found a fix, but it’s only temporary. The app needs an update to address the 24h Weather Conditions function. Thanks WVLT for the Great app! ### 1/5 — Glitchy and jumpy *2024-09-29, version 5.15.412* Extremely glitchy and jumpy on iOS 18 ### 1/5 — 24 hour radar *2024-09-26, version 5.15.412* When I do the 24 hour radar, the radar freezes halfway ### 3/5 — Good but… *2024-09-16, version 5.15.412* Great app however the 24 hours radar model always stops at 12 hours and will not go past that mark. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Inaccurate as all heck. *2026-07-12, version 6.2.512* These forecasts are never correct and are never the same as other news stations. ### 1/5 — Old weather forecasts *2026-05-10, version 6.1.601* The outlook for tomorrow is not available at 5:30 pm. Not a good look. ### 1/5 — The newest update is awful *2026-03-16, version 6.1.601* I hate the new update you can’t overlay on the radar like you used to be able to do so you can see where the storms are and what alerts are issued at same time now you have to pick one or the other and I don’t like it at all it was great before this last update now im just gonna use the other local stations app or the weather channel app from now on ### 1/5 — It used to be my go to news and weather app! *2026-03-11, version 6.1.601* Since the last update this is loaded with advertisements that load before news loads. The notification never goes off even after turning off notifications. It always shows you have notifications and there’s nothing New! ### 1/5 — Always wrong *2026-01-27, version 6.1.302* Always wrong ### 1/5 — Nope *2026-01-25, version 6.1.302* Why do I have to watch ads to get the weather? The app is full of ads. Every video you want to watch has an ad before you can view. Cannot recommend. ### 1/5 — Just terrible *2026-01-23, version 6.1.302* Might be the worst app on the internet ### 1/5 — Glitchy and jumpy *2025-05-19, version 5.17.511* Extremely glitchy and jumpy on iOS 18.5 also the whole app crashes out when opening.
