1. [R1] WMC5 First Alert Weather 2/5 · US Alerts don’t work!!!!: Since the last update, I do not get any verbal notifications. Also, when you go to turn alerts on the map none of them show up. There’s a lag even though the app is connected to the Internet just needs to be fixed. I’ve used this app for more than 10 years and now it’s barely functional.
2. [R24] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Too many alerts: I liked this app better when we only got alerts for bad weather. All day long this thing sends me alerts. It’s too much. I just want bad weather alerts.
3. [R40] WMC5 First Alert Weather 1/5 · US Alerts not for my location: Not sure why my alert videos are from ark/ la when I have my location set for s Florida
4. [R42] WMC5 First Alert Weather 2/5 · US L . Fleming: I get too many every day. Back to back to back. Lisa F . Walls,Ms.
5. [R4] WMC5 First Alert Weather 1/5 · US Update ruined radar: This app used to be great but the update has ruined the radar options.
6. [R6] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US That is not 24 hours: Why can the “24 hour” radar only go halfway on the bar before the radar stops
7. [R7] WMC5 First Alert Weather 2/5 · US Radar needs improvement: The old radar system was a lot more user friendly and easier to understand new update is not good
8. [R15] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Apps needs improving: I really like The Action News 5 weather app. But open the satellite map is not updating. Also, often the app will not work on my phone or my smart tv. The videos are not updating in a timely manner either. There needs to be some sort of update to fix these bugs.
9. [R3] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Accurate weather; Scam ads: The accuracy of the weather forecast on this app is good, but the whole app is covered in fraudulent, scam ads.
10. [R12] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Slow: Very slow waiting for it you want make sure we see the advertisement I don’t like that think I will use WREG
11. [R19] WMC5 First Alert Weather 1/5 · US Advertising Opportunity: Just another opportunity for revenue for the TV Station.
12. [R27] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Ads: Way too many ads cluttering the page.
13. [R10] WMC5 First Alert Weather 2/5 · US Best to worst: This app was my favorite travel app. Not only for weather wherever I was at, but especially for the Traffic part of the app. The Traffic part now ONLY works for Memphis - no more checking the roads for where I’m at, where I’m going, or for my daughters traveling on the road. For this loss of functionality, giving it 2 stars.
14. [R13] WMC5 First Alert Weather 2/5 · US Disappointed: Not happy with new upgrade. Don’t fix what’s not broken! I had it set, don’t like the way it looks
15. [R30] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Too much!: Too much info crowded onto iPhone screen. Prefer a simpler layout.
16. [R16] WMC5 First Alert Weather 2/5 · US Video’s: Can’t get videos to play.
17. [R33] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Sad :/: When opening the app lately I get a notice that says this app isn’t available at my current location. Until now this was the most reliable weather app I’ve ever used. Now I can hardly get it to work. Hope it gets fixed soon.
18. [R52] StormTrack 5 4/5 · US Stormy Weather: The radar maps are detailed and are helpful, especially when they’re tracking nearby storms.
19. [R61] StormTrack 5 5/5 · US sub to my youtube: best local weather app and it’s free!
20. [R64] StormTrack 5 5/5 · US Awesome: This is my only weather app I have and I have it on 3 devices the storm alerts are top notch and to think I can get regular heads up on tomorrow’s weather today the storm tracking system is exceptional along with the accuracy I would recommend this app to anyone who wants to know about the current and future weather conditions. Thank you to the developers for making a weather app that doe
21. [R66] First Alert Weather 5/5 · US This is great: Ok so WLBT is awesome ok who cares what the other people rate it there probably not from the south . This app is amazing it gives you videos but no it’s not long at all . The people are just impatient. I was in the march 24 2023 rolling fork tornado and the chief meteorologist Dave Roberts he saved my moms and me life!
22. [R70] First Alert Weather 3/5 · US Weather app: The app has a few issues. First, it plays commercials before showing the 60-second preview of upcoming coverage, which isn’t helpful when a storm is approaching, and quick updates are needed. Second, when the news team is live, clicking to watch within the app redirects to the WLBT 3 website, where the live stream takes too long to load, again, not ideal during severe weather. Could li

30. [R97] KFVS12 StormTeam Weather 5/5 · US Very accurate: I grew up watching KFVS12 and Dan Rather giving us up to date weather forecasts. I now live in central Missouri and love that we can still count on the weather team in Cape Girardeau.

34. [R114] WSMV 4 FIRST ALERT Weather 5/5 · US Love the Weather, Not the Warning Spam: I really love the radar, it’s consistently more accurate and up to date than many other apps I’ve tried. Unfortunately, the notifications are a major downside. I only have a few very specific alerts turned on, yet I keep receiving notifications for things I’ve disabled. If the notification issues get fixed, I’m happily back on Team WSMV4.
35. [R117] WSMV 4 FIRST ALERT Weather 5/5 · US Channel 4 is lucky: When I found out that Bree Smith was coming to channel 4 I was so happy. I was watching TV the other day and I saw where a woman had said that she was it was like Bree was in your living room with you. That is true she puts it in terms that everyone can understand. I would never watch another channel when she was on channel 5 now I only watch channel 4. She’s a very caring and
36. [R18] WMC5 First Alert Weather 3/5 · US No weather in US: Your weather app has been an important part of my daily information source. So many days lately, your weather radar map shows NO weather at all over the US. That’s why I have had to depend on other sources for my weather fix.
37. [R20] WMC5 First Alert Weather 4/5 · US Fix the 24 hour futurecast feature: Everything works great. I’ve just noticed the last month or so, the 24 hour futurecast only shows radar up to a certain point and then lags. My app is up to date and it doesn’t matter if I’m on WiFi or using phone data. It does it anyway. Please fix.
