New updated needed.

I update a few days ago. There new format looks like. Can't open the news or anything.
Get a Wect update and try to open. First your get an advertisement. Then when you try to open story nothing shows up. Or it's takes forever to open. Before update no problems.

Updated App is terrible!!! Rate=Zero!!

Ever hear the saying if it ain't broke, don't fix it? No more favorites. Have family located in all parts of the country and world and I could check on their weather status daily if need be. Well favorites are gone!! The new app is not user friendly!! They want you to pinpoint your exact street location for more accurate weather. Why? Will start using another weather app so I can keep in contact with family members' weather located outside Wilmington. I rate WECT6FirstAlertWeather a ZERO!!

Not responding

WECT6FirstAlertWeather opens but radar doesn’t work

Updates

Every time I update your app I have to install & reinstall. Had enough!

What happened?

It’s pouring out, yet the radar shows nothing. Yes I have made sure to add the precipitation layer. Uninstalling.

Radar

What happened to the radar? It now doesn’t show predictions so I can’t see what’s coming. I feel this is dangerous as it doesn’t let me prepare for weather.

One Lousy App

Don’t bother to download this lousy app. From my experience its never been right. Even the radar is wrong when I compare to other weather apps. All WECT wants is for you to download so they can get the ad revenue.

Bug

App has always worked great untill recently. Now I can’t use it at all bc a message keeps popping up that it’s currently unavailable in my area. Please fix this!

Locks Up on Start

Had WECT6FirstAlertWeather for years. Every once in awhile they improve it so much it will not start. Opening screen just locks up. App support link does not work either (5 years old).

Need the weather!!!

When opening WECT6FirstAlertWeather I have to stare at the weather/news cast for 30 seconds to minute before I can actually get the weather. I need the report immediately not 2 minutes later! Used to be my go to weather app but not anymore.

Update ruined it

WECT6FirstAlertWeather use to be the best weather app. This recent update has completely ruined it. The radar is always wrong h less you put it in motion and even then it’s terrible. Sometimes change isn’t good. And in this case WECT6FirstAlertWeather was so much better before

Nice app but…

This is a nice app, however, I wish it had a clearer interface. It’s to busy and loaded with third party advertisements.

No hourly updates

WECT6FirstAlertWeather does update like the weather channel app does. I would like to know the actual weather as the day changes.

Good at the map fades a little

Love mom

Love it

But add crowd reports please. It would be awesome to be able to alert people to possible hazards.

Radar page

Needs a current location button on radar page.

Was great now No current location

WECT6FirstAlertWeather was fantastic. Now the "current location" does not work. Location is turned on for WECT6FirstAlertWeather and it just keeps throwing an error. Other then that WECT6FirstAlertWeather is a great way to see local weather and know what is coming accurately. Still this is the go to app for weather here in the WECT area.

Landscape?

Would prefer to be able to use WECT6FirstAlertWeather in landscape viewing as well. Otherwise a good app.

WECT WEATHER

I LIKE WECT6FirstAlertWeather.

Best weather app, hands down.

WECT6FirstAlertWeather is updated by ACTUAL meteorologists and not computers. Provides a more accurate forecast. I’d like to see the weather channel app do THAT!

Needs work!

Still liked the older version better not as user friendly now! (More unnecessary menu tabs)! But the most annoying thing is the location icon blue dot that covers & blocks what your trying to look at! Even when zooming out it stays the same size blocking a huge area of the map!! Please fix that & everything else would be considerably more tolerable!! Thank you! Weather Nutt!

Delete and reinstall

App works fine if delete and reinstall after updating to ios 6.0.

Best App Around

I am a mother of three youngsters. WECT6FirstAlertWeather helped me so much in preparing playdates, vacations, and so much more. It has all you need including temperatures, radar, hourly forecast, and 10-day overview. Best of the best!
