1. [R5] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 5/5 · US Best weather app yet: I’ve tried a lot of different weather apps over time and found that this one is one of the best in design and information all around. Perhaps a little biased towards KSAT after living in San Antonio for a couple of years back in the mid 60’s but a resounding yes to this app. It not only provides me with the weather in and around San Antonio but I also added my current locatio
2. [R8] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 5/5 · US New weather app: I’ve used your weather app for several years and loved it. I’ve tried working with the new one and have changed settings but it won’t keep my changes. I just want the radar once it comes up. I’m not interested in all the links you have below featuring the actual broadcast and other stuff. Needless to say there’s another station that has one similar to your old one you had that I’l
3. [R11] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 4/5 · US The update is horrible: This was my favorite weather app but the update you just did makes it difficult to use and the radar is so bizarre looking now. Please change it back!
4. [R65] Storm team 12 5/5 · US Ace_888: Storm Team 12 is without a doubt, the most reliable weather team. Most accurate Doppler radar the most up-to-date weather news happening in our area. I’m an avid fisherman and your Milford Lake forecast are always good. Thank you, Storm Team 12.
5. [R3] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 3/5 · US Unusable for me: The inability to use landscape mode, or enlarge the window for iPad use makes it difficult to use. I liked the layout, but now it’s just too cumbersome and hard to use.
6. [R22] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 2/5 · US In serious need of improvements: This app has been my go-to for local weather for quite some time. However, the revamping of the app several months ago (editing this review as June 4, 2025, though the xperience still remains the same) hasn't made the experience very pleasant. Almost everything about the older format version was much more user-friendly including the various radar maps. For one, the
7. [R72] Storm team 12 3/5 · US Not happy: I don’t care for this recent update. Especially the map. It shows the entire country. After adjusting to my location, that setting does not stay set. Each time I open the app, I have to change the map. Which is annoying. Didn’t have to do this before. And there are too many buttons. I liked the previous version much better.
8. [R113] Storm team 12 1/5 · US Disappointing: I’m so sorry I just updated the app. I find it now necessary in order to have 6 hour map movement I must UPGRADE. I have used and relied on this app for years. But it is goodbye now. Too greedy. There are other good weather apps.
9. [R6] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 3/5 · US Radar issues? Just me?: I can no longer see radar a couple of hours into the future using the KSAT weather app. The only option I have is the last 24 hours ending with right now-this minute. When I looked in settings, it didn’t give me an option to look at say, the next couple of hours to see if it’s gonna rain so I know to pack an umbrella. In other words, this app is almost useless to me now and
10. [R20] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 1/5 · US Amateur hour: This is one of the worst written apps I’ve ever used. Scrolling panes aren’t correctly synchronized so it’s easily possible that the weather shown doesn’t match the location shown. The home page of the app is cluttered and mostly filled with ads. The weather radar pane is vastly inferior to KSATs web site and its future projections are a joke. KSAT used to have a good weather app but
11. [R61] Storm team 12 1/5 · US Annoying: Non stop radar dysfunction. Constantly having to uninstall and reinstall app to get radar back. Super frustrating. But when it works it’s great. Sad it doesn’t work when I really need it too.
12. [R91] Storm team 12 1/5 · US Radar not correct: radar says theres rain in my current location and theres no rain
13. [R1] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 1/5 · US Icons and view is incredibly large. You can’t see it.: The app changed about a week ago and suddenly when you open it, it is massive huge you can’t even see two other days at a time!!! This app is absolutely worthless!!!
14. [R88] Storm team 12 1/5 · US Not accurate and too many ads: Way too many ads for a weather app
15. [R7] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 1/5 · US Poor quality app: The apps features usually never work and when you write a review, the developers simply are offended that their app doesn’t function properly when that is their responsibility. Currently, the app doesn’t open and has been this way since the new year begun.
16. [R46] KSAT 12 Weather Authority 1/5 · US Downgrading quality: The app does not have storm tracker anymore. A user can't determine if hail cells, wind, tornados are visibly in our area. It's almost like they are programming the apps not to inform us! Programmers have dummed down the app. Even after emailing the programmers, no reply. It's a waist of time!
17. [R111] Storm team 12 1/5 · US Needs improvement: I understand your need to make money from advertising, but I need to be able to read the information. I can’t risk accessing your notices in a quiet place for fear they will have sound. Also, maybe one time out of four, when I click on your notification, it does not go to the information mentioned.
18. [R67] Storm team 12 2/5 · US Used to be the best, not anymore: Since the last big update, temps have not been accurate. The map is terrible.
