14FirstAlert Weather TriState Reviews

I have been using 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState for almost a years now, and it’s been excellent. But, I’ve noticed that the radar keeps getting slower~ and slower~ every time I use it. And, it’s really inaccurate. When I need the radar, it will either crash, or not show anything. And again, very inaccurate. When we plan to do inside stuff, it ends up being sunny. When we plan outside stuff, we get rained on. It has been getting worse as I casually use it, just about everyday.

My job requires me to know the weather conditions before we schedule the day. The 14 app is perfect for me to know when favorable or unfavorable weather events are going to happen.

14FirstAlertWeatherTriState has many flaws. This screenshot was made on March 14 when it was 52° outside and I wanted an accurate temperature and radar screen, but it is seldom available to me.

It won’t let me put a screen shot on here but it was showing 78° and nothing on radar when it’s pouring down rain here

I try and try to let them know so they can correct the problem but there’s no way to contact them through 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState

I have 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState on three of my devices & with each new update it gets better. Thank you for the new updates, I look forward to seeing more new improvements to your app.

PLEASE FIX 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState!!!! 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState constantly crashes when you try to go to the radar tab. Today it would even crash on the first screen right before the video would load. I have checked my free space on my iPhone and I have several GB available. I have restarted my phone, restarted 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState , even deleted 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState and reinstalled and it made no difference.

After I open 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState and go back again it will not open unless I shut my phone down and turn back on. Frustrating!!!

Have had 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState for several years and have always loved it. Not sure what has happened but, it just gives me the “boot” screen w/the spinning wheel of death, and never opens. Have rebooted my phone and even deleted and re-downloaded app to no avail

I truly appreciate the 14 weather app ! It gives me the information that I need to plan my day and to stay safe! It is reliable! Thank you

Goes off too often for no reason. Live in Evansville, but get alerts for possible rain in Owensboro. Also, get upset when the only alert is to watch the forecast to see what the weather might be (usually early in the morning)!

I like being able to see when a storm is getting close to Henderson.

It’s literally a technological miracle that I can have instant radar on my phone with 100% up-time. Thank you 14!

Long load times seems to be getting worse and worse. Then if you click any of the videos it continues to say error cannot load requested video. I have the newest version and even deleted and reinstalled and same issues.

Very slow to load when needed. If the weather is great, no storms in the area, 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState pops right up. If there are any storms coming through (when you need it the most) it may not load at all. I believe it has something to do with the gps, finding your current location.

Great app, very useful, up to the minute

Here lately the weather app has not been loading instead window saying cannot be accessed in your area. It also happens on my husbands phone.

I live in Evansville and 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState is usually correct! It takes a while to load and has few to many ads, but it's pretty good.

It’s taking longer and longer to load and open up that sometimes I just close it and not try until the next day. Really irritated

If the radar was able to play the past faster it would be good app but seems like it keeps getting worse

Sometimes it doesn’t load. Same with the news app. Just letting you know. I have a new phone and it’s updated. Other than that it’s good.

14FirstAlertWeatherTriState seems to get slower and slower every time I TRY to use it. End up giving up and going to other weather apps. Get rid of the annoying ads too. I’d pay for a fast, functional, working local weather app.

I love 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState and I would give it five stars, but it needs to utilize the full size of the iPhone 5, 5s, & 5c screen space as the WFIE news app does. It would be nice to be able to see more of the radar if 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState were updated to fix this!

It crashes a lot now and so many useless alerts to look at videos... check the weather this morning... if I hear a alert .. it best be important.. not to watch a billion videos

Since the latest update will not load at all iOS 13.3.

Updated but now get nothing!

Imagine this: you are huddled together with your family in a closet because you received an alert that a tornado has touched down in your neighborhood. The power has went out due to the storm so the only connection you have to see where the tornado is on your mobile device. So you open your "first alert" weather app to do just that. Your baby's crying and you're trying to listen for the sound of a tornado. You click on the live feed tab and BOOM a two minute video advertisement pops up on your phone (there is no option to skip the ad mind you) so you have to sit there terrified and wait for the news station to make a few cents before you get the information that your life may depend on! Because this is exactly what happened to our family, and it could happen to yours. What is the point of a "first alert" weather app when "ever second counts" if you're forced to wait until a completely irrelevant advertisement takes those precious seconds and flushes them down the toilet? Unless of course the advertisement is for a funeral home...

I've had 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState for some time now and I quite enjoy it. I like that it sends me notifications for weather updates and it prepares me for what to expect in the morning and night. I especially love the short videos posted giving a brief rundown of weather conditions. The video plays in a school bus for the bus stop forecast, on a TV screen with kittens watching if you should bring your pets in, and most recently from the bell of a tuba along with the temps being displayed on a music staff for the marching band forecast. So silly! I did just update it, though, so things are a bit different than what I'm used to, but it's still a great app.

I have set the map as my default panel and just about every time I load 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState the Headlines panel comes up as my default. Then I have to swipe through 4 or 5 panels to get to the map. I think your map is better than the Weather Channel app, but the panels are an absolute pain. I would give it 5 stars if the default panels starts working again or make 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState like it was before you put in the panels.

I have been a follower of the 14 app for a long time! I am not, however, on Facebook nor do I plan to be. The purpose of 14FirstAlertWeatherTriState is to keep us posted with live coverage but NOW we have to have FB to see Jeff Lyons do his live updates. Not everyone lives on social media. Please fix this as I would like to know what's going on when I am away from home.

This is the best weather application available. Well put together. I haven't had any issues at all. I would have rated it a 5/5 if you could stream updates live during severe weather outbreaks.
