User Reviews for WKRG Weather

New Update

The old app, while looking outdated worked very well, I especially liked the heavy rain and lightning strike notifications. This recent update brings a much needed new look on the app, but I feel like the radar is less useful with not showing the cones for tornados, etc. As well as I cannot get the notifications for lightning and heavy rain to work, which I really liked previously, especially how it would read out the information, but this may be user error.

Bad Update, bad app 👎

Horrible! Why would you change it from a well functioning and easy to navigate app to this!?I understand wanting a new look to the app but you sacrificed the entire interface and usability. In return we get a crap app with pictures of the weather team. Not to mention I’m hammered with constant adds now.

New Update

The updated version of the app is not as good as the old version. It loads faster but there are less radar features, no hourly forecast, and way too much information. Most of the time the app is choppy at best. If I wanted the news instead of the weather, I would’ve installed the WKRG News app instead of the weather app. I’m uninstalling and moving on.

Sorry excuse for functioning “app.”

The new version of the WKRG weather app is horrendous. It is so awful in fact, that I might dare say it is a crime against humanity. I have never found myself leaving reviews on apps, but the chasm between what this app is in terms of quality now, versus what it was for the years that I used it prior, is vast. The new version is clunky. The new version crashes. The new radar is clunky. There’s too much going on. The simplicity of swiping through my few options was sufficient for me and I reckon for many others based on these reviews. The new map is way too bright. Defeats the purpose of the Doppler pickups contrasting the map. I suggest asking Alan Sealls what he thinks you should do.

Bring back satellite view

Your new “modern look” to the map background has caused complaints by my mother and her friends. They want the satellite view back, because they don’t look at streets—they look at terrain via satellite photography. That’s why they used your app in the first place. And they are now looking for a replacement for your app after you broke it. If you add the option to put the satellite view back, that would fix this issue.

Hate new app.

I have been using the old app at least a doz times a day for 6 years. I cannot understand this one at all. As far as I am concerned it is useless. Fancy is not better. Please bring back the old & simple!!!!I’ve been using it at least a dz. times a day since you changed to this new one. I still don't like it. It says 4&up. Guess I’m too old. Deleted & reinstalled. If that don’t help I will switch to 15’s.

Previous app was better

Previous app was much easier to navigate and find what you were after. App is loading much faster though. The old one wouldn’t load on my phone half of the time.

Old app was fine 1, May 08, 2020

Pitiful excuse for a weather app

This used to be my go to weather app...not since the horrible update a couple of months ago. It’s terrible and completely unhelpful. I always used to use this app for weather checking before using TWC. Deleting your app as soon as I submit this review.

Too many ads

When you load the home page you immediately get a full page ad. If you happen to touch one of the numerous ads as you navigate, the ad takes over the screen and renders the app useless until you restart it and then you get another ad. The app looks very good and much improved when you are able to use it. Please roll back the ads and give us a big X to make it go away when one does appear. Thanks!

New version is horrible

I used to love this app, especially the radar feature. The new update did not improve much of anything. Upon opening the app, there are so many things to look at, it hard to focus. It’s “too busy”. The old radar used to have a feature that would run the radar into the future. The new one supposedly does too, but I can’t get it to work. I may be deleting this app. They should have left it alone.
