Perfect, simple perfect

I absolutely love this app. Perfect

Great weather app!

I’ve tried many weather apps but this one stands out to me more than the others. It offers a lot of features, while still staying very accurate, unlike many other weather apps that rely on less reliable information. This app's data comes directly from the national weather service, making it very reliable for people who need the data straight from a trusted source.
Although it can be hard to traverse through the apps interface and data. After a few uses of using the app, you will quickly catch on and understand how to navigate through this app. The amount of customization in the settings is far ahead of the competitors, allowing you to set your settings for your specific needs.
This app also includes the SPC predictions, a handful of models and mosaics which is good for weather enthusiasts like me. The radar is what stands out from other weather apps, it’s highly customizable and features a dual pane mode to view two different weather modes simultaneously. If you want something a step up there is even a quad pane option to view four different weather modes simultaneously. Another feature is the ability to long press a location for an instant local forecast instead of having to save a location on the main screen every time.
A small handy feature is being able to see the area forecast discussion and the severe weather ongoing in the vicinity of an area you chose.
Another nice thing about the app is that most weather apps require your GPS constantly but this one doesn’t require your GPS to function. To get all of those features for free and without any ads is rare! The entire weather app overall feels very clean, organized and professional.
excellent work!

Liking it so far!

This app has a ton of info. I will start with saying we need the proper dark mode icon when using the dark mode icons options for iOS.

Hopefully the bottom bar gets some icons for each category. Other then those things not much to say other then any ui improvements are welcomed

Convective Outlooks

Great app. Needs update to account for changes in SPC outlooks tho

Amazing

amazing app, and its free!

Great app and developers

Very much appreciate the app and warnings about the NWS’ lack of funding.

Awesome app for Wx

This is one of the best Wx apps there is. If there is quick, consistent and accurate data, this app has it. Thank you to the author and developer of this app for a Wx app that fills in all the holes in weather apps that other weather apps leave a professional or amateur weather specialist craving for. One of the best ever produced and made publicly available.

App doesn’t work on IOS 26

App crashes as soon as it opens,. Please fix when available.

National Weather Service Piped In

If you want the Forecast Discussion without the frustrating formatting issues this is it. Plus scads of extra stuff. Somebody on Reddit told us about it.

Amazing

Been looking for exactly something like this. Keep up the good work!

Crashed! Fixed…

Won’t open. Looks like problem is fixed.

Amazing app

Has everything one needs for current and up coming weather. Sadly recently the app no longer works. When opening the app is instantly closes.

V56171 crashes on open

I’m running the latest iOS 18.1.1 and just updated wX to v56171 and it crashes within seconds of opening it, after I put the radar image on the initial Home Screen. Have to delete the app and lose settings. If I put the radar there again, it starts crashing again on app open. Otherwise, my favorite and GO TO weather app.

Crashing upon opening

Cannot open app after update. Still a 5 star app once this problems can be resolved. I hope the resolution can be posted in description as I can’t get to the FAQ,

Solid Wx app

Information is easily accessible. Data is accurate. Great all-in-one weather app.

5-Stars

Surprisingly accurate. When my local broadcast media gets it wrong, wXL23 gets it right. Thank you.

The most in-depth weather app available

Everything you could possibly imagine is available in this app. An indispensable tool for any weather enthusiast out there

great!

I just recently went down the rabbit hole of weather and storm chasing, and this app is the perfect companion for that obsession. I’m genuinely amazed that an app with such a depth of information doesn’t even have ads, and there’s no paywall to more advanced information! it’s all there, even if it’s a little difficult to sort though at times, especially if you’re not well versed in weather models and terminology. after two or so days though, I got a hang of where I could find the information I actually needed. the dual pane radar is great, although it’s a little slow to play animations, and occasionally the animations will crash the app unfortunately. that for me is the only real drawback besides the slightly difficult to grasp interface. I also noticed that the radar on an app like radarscope refreshes more quickly, but it’s not enough in my opinion to justify the ten dollars. besides the radar, the variety of models and spc predictions are great for forecasting. incredible app!

pretty good

this is definitely one of the best apps i have (with other free apps) especially since i can switch between velocity and reflectivity radar. for a weather enthusiast it’s definitely a must have. but i have one piece of criticism, the radars are not the best in terms of quality.

The best weather app!

Thorough, extensive, yet efficient and uncluttered.
