WAFB First Alert Weather App Reviews

Great update!

Love the new update! More user-friendly. I really like the new real-time maps. I didnt like the "past-future" radar maps. Thank you!!

Multi-step process

I can no longer go directly to the map upon starting this app. Start up settings are ignored. Instead, I have to fumble through a rotating menu. Wants to start on headlines first.

Needs Improving!

The app seems to do great at times! Very glitchy!

Too complicated

Ive gone back to the older version. It has less complicated maneuvers to see the radar. This version is for someone really into the weather. I just want to see the radar and hurricane warnings. No thanks! And, please, stop telling me to upgrade........

STOP TELLING ME TO UPGRADE

Everytime I open app, it tells me to upgrade! I have the latest version. Also, I want app to default to opening the map. I have to manually open map each time.

Old version was better

The older version of this app was better because the map would show up first and stay up. The new version has a setting for the map to be the first thing to show up but that doesnt always work, the tabs just flip around in a circle and you hope you can catch the map like on a slot machine...I mainly want to look at the radar. Everything else is secondary.

Good app but...

This app is very good-pretty graphics and accurate radar. That is, its good when it works. It crashes on start very often causing me to delete the app then redownload it. Get a more stable app and this is a 5 star review.

Great app

Great app I use whenever I travel and before I plan a trip.

Cool but not functional

The "new look" is still functionally awful. Instead of seeing a map, forecast, current conditions, and perhaps a scrolling alert, along with a menu for less-used items, now you get just current conditions and headlines in this cooool rotating format. Yes, its so cool. News flash, WAFB: I dont check the weather app for its coolness factor; I want to see what the weather is. The old app did that better. WBRZ still uses the functional template WAFB did previously, for now at least. You open it, and what you need is right there on the screen.

You dont get it

WAFB, to first gaze seconds upon the weather team ( as much as I think they do a good job) then an ad, THEN to get to the actual weather menu.....that is difficult at best........ Just doesnt get it!!!!!!!!!! I am sticking with Weatherbug for my typical, everyday news info. True that it is not geared to our area only, but at least I can get current info without the hassle WAFB puts you thru. No good local weather app.... Certainly not Shingletons weather mess!

Just A Commercial

I would rather buy the app than go thru the ads and personality promotion but only if the bugs are fixed. On open says not connected and crashes.
