WSBTweather Reviews

Love the weather part of WSBTweather , but the news feed will not load. The images come up but when you click on them all you get is a blank screen. Please fix this!!!

I was wondering if you guys could make an update that allows us to select what severe weather alert for announce since I am tired of hearing the avalanche warning example when testing the announce choice. So my idea is that when we press announce in the notification part of the settings for the severe weather sound, it will put a check on the announce and pull up a list of the severe alerts. When you press one of them, it will announce that example you press. For example, when I’m in the example list and I press Tornado Warning, It will announce it like there’s a tornado. Once you press on one, it won’t kick you out of the list. If you guys can please make this update, it would be super nice. Thank You!

I’ve used WSBTweather for years and love it. The forecasts are highly accurate and the visuals are extremely informative and can be tailored to different situations. It also works probably anywhere in the world, I’ve used it all over the United States, Canada, and Europe and it gives me local weather info and forecasts for my location with the same quality everywhere from Athens, Greece to Vancouver, Canada to Dallas, Texas. Recommended highly to anybody.

I’m tech savvy, but maybe I’m missing some things. Any time we have a watch/warning, it completely blocks the actual radar of the storm. I can’t set the transparency rate of the warning boxes, and it makes it hard to figure things out.

Also, the red for thunderstorms is seriously throwing me off. Red, at least for our local stations, has always been for Tornados.

I’m currently looking for a new radar app u til we get a new version. Or we get our old app back. Old version was 1000x better than the new.

I’ve lived all over the world and I’ve used WSBTweather everywhere. Absolute hands down favorite weather app! Love that it can show you what direction bad weather is traveling in. Love the notifications when bad weather is near my area.
I really really really wish they had a AppleTV app.

Used to like WSBTweather , I like the concepts of it but it struggles to load when most critical and pretty much after the fact in the past year especially. Really bad in the past 6 months. Not sure what they changed, maybe it’s the ads that take up too much, not allowing the purpose of WSBTweather to run effectively. I need to see where the storm is going, not where I can get price gouged from.

Not sure what’s going on but since the latest update it takes on average 3 minutes just to get the welcome screen to go away to see the radar. Then it takes forever to load the image. I have an iPhone 7 with the latest update so it’s not like I’m out of date. Please fix it! I don’t want to use any other platform for radar

Hello I love to get my weather information from all of you at WSBT-TV, however when I go to WSBTweather to watch videos for the day they are almost always old. I just went on for morning weather and got last nights 6:00pm report. It happens nearly everyday.

This weather app is literally the best one out there. I never experience and glitches using this. Definitely deserves 5 stars.

We love WSBTweather for the radar. But the news link needs to be updated to a secure connection. If this portion worked, we would give WSBTweather 5 stars.

I’m chief meteorologist John and I don’t really care to hear WHO your employees are EVERY TIME LIGHTNING IS DETECTED IN MY AREA. I’m chief meteorologist John and it might just be annoying to start every alert that way, but I’m chief meteorologist John and there doesn’t seem to be a way to get back the old, shorter alerts.

I’m chief meteorologist John and this has been my 1-star review of your annoying app.

I used to love WSBTweather , but since the last iOS update, the ability of WSBTweather to open is sporadic at best. I previously notified the station about this. I really dislike having to power down my phone and back up to use WSBTweather . Please do something to fix this.

Having problems with app kicking out or having GPS error and showing city I don't live in and adding a city just randomly to my locations.

Seriously- why? It takes anywhere between 1-3 minutes to load. It doesn’t matter if I’m on Wifi or using my data. I’m thinking about deleting it because I rarely use because it takes so long to load.

When trying to open kindle content it wants to open it with the WSBT app.

Other than that, I use WSBTweather frequently.

The satellite image now being used is VERY dark and VERY outdated. It is a satellite image at least 8 years old - not current. With as dark as it is, the cloud/rain overlays are much harder to see precipitation. Very poor update. I will be switching weather apps if this is not corrected.

I enjoyed your app for at least two years and now I need a password for every news story and no direction how to sign up or why I need to
I have switched to wndu until this is repaired

Please, please update the wsbt weather app. I used it successfully on my ipad and iphone for several years. Now it won’t open reliably- usually not at all. I’m so disappointed to be losing access to the best weather team in the area. Do I HAVE to go to another online local weather source? Please fix it?

New version auto flips from landscape to portrait on opening...not a preferred mode for an iPad.

Doesn’t work most of the time. Doesn’t show current temperature, or conditions. Everything is always blank.

WSBT’s severe weather alerts USED to be good. Not anymore. Alerts issued by the NWS late at night almost always do not get by WSBT until after 6am. Maybe they need their sleep?
This morning is also a good example. At 1:19am I received several severe weather alerts. For a flood warning YESTERDAY morning and a severe storm warning LAST NIGHT. BOTH WERE LONG EXPIRED BEFORE WSBT’s ALERTS WERE SENT OUT.

I guess it just isn’t important to the station to send them out right away. SO DO NOT RELY ON THIS STATION TO KEEP YOU WARNED AND NOTIFIED. OR SAFE.

It’s great cause I can see when there is a big storm or tornado

New map colors are awful. The black background makes it so tough to read. Then a watch or warning and you cannot even see the actual precipitation through all the thick dark colors.
