Unnecessary ads along with a radar that's consistently WRONG.

2022-05-28

Maybe I should read this radar like I'm dyslexic because when it shows rain, it doesn't rain and when it shows no rain, the sky falls. I can not depend on WBRCFirstAlertWeather nor radar. Also, I shouldn’t have to watch an ad — let alone a one minute ad — about someone’s roofing company when there’s a severe thunderstorm or tornado warning ongoing. On top of that, when I exit WBRCFirstAlertWeather , I shouldn’t have to completely reload WBRCFirstAlertWeather ; what happened to caching?

Too many ads!

2022-06-29

Love getting up-to-the-hour weather reports, but if I see that couple stand on their windows one more time you’ll hear me scream! It’s especially annoying to have to watch a commercial when you’re trying to see whether there’s a tornado headed your way. Have noticed last couple of times I’ve had option to skip ads, but option wasn’t there during all those storms last week. I’d rather pay a subscription fee than watch ads!

Ad, Ad, and more Ads....

2022-07-30

I used to love WBRCFirstAlertWeather and have had it for several years. The only thing that irritates me the most is the constant advertisements! Even if the weather video is only 2 mins long, they have an advertisement pop up at the beginning and sometimes it’s longer than the actual weather video! We had a storm coming one day not too long ago and I was trying to keep up with the weather but every time I was trying to watch a weather update I’d have to wait a few mins for the ads to go away. I don’t know... it’s just frustrating to see one of the pointless ads pop up EVERY SINGLE TIME I try to watch an update. So I’m finally uninstalling it until they can remove so many of them. Every now and then I don’t mind... but every video is ridiculous.

Freezes and shows old broadcasts at live times

2022-08-31

I used to love this but now it when live broadcasts should be on, it shows old ones from the night before or like right now at 6:25 am, it shows the braces game from last night. It freezes up constantly and it also cuts off in the middle of segments for commercials.

Good app but needs some more features

2022-10-02

The weather app is good, I like the radar, but I wish it had more filters, like pressure, wind speed, and windchill

The videos that are posted on first alert weather days are also good, but they lack subtitles, making them hard to understand for the hearing impaired or if you’re in a crowded area. Would also be great if the news could stream to WBRCFirstAlertWeather , because not everyone is around their tv 24/7.

Focus on our Home town

2022-11-02

WBRCFirstAlertWeather is really good not only because it’s simple and it’s got all the right information but mainly because it is focusing on my hometown in my state. I’ve always got the notifications going on my phone and on my Apple Watch which is very nice to have. I definitely download WBRCFirstAlertWeather every time I switch phones. Plus my favorite part is the notification voice instead of a notification sound.

Best Weather App

2022-12-04

I just wanted to say thank you for making WBRCFirstAlertWeather available. It was literally a life saving app alert for me and my family when the F-4 and F-5 tornadoes were on the ground for so long a few years ago. When y’all were the ONLY station that predicted them days ahead of time. When my app warning alert went off, I knew then to get to our “Safe Place” immediately. My two young sons and I knew ahead of time, thanks to your app, to do just that. Sure enough the tornadoes hit and did severe damage to my neighborhood. We were blessed that it passed over my house, and “Skipped”, as tornadoes do, throughout our community. I will always have WBRCFirstAlertWeather for as long as it’s available! Thank y’all for taking such great care of our state and all the people in it. May God bless you for all that you do for all of us!

Trouble loading

2023-01-04

I have used WBRCFirstAlertWeather for sometime. Graphics and video’s are good. When I was a OTR driver I used WBRCFirstAlertWeather. Loved hearing my local weather news come from someone I recognize and knew

Bad weather in North Alabama

2023-02-05

I’d like to say that James Span does a wonderful job in he’s weather room when it becomes nasty weather. He stays on top of the weather and very good at explaining all the icons that he works with. Again Thanks Mr. Span for what you do for Half of Northern Bama!

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!!

2023-03-09

Over the past several years I’ve tried what feels like every weather app that’s on the market and the WBRC Fox 6 Weather App is the weather app that I go to when I need to know what the weather is REALLY GOING TO BE IN MY TOWN. Sure some of the other apps have a lot of cool “bells and whistles”, but those things don’t help me when there’s a tornado heading for my home and I need to protect my wife and my girls (Sayde: black lab, Sophie: pitbull and Bitsy: pitbull/lab mix). I can depend on JP and the weather team at Fox 6 to help me protect myself, my wife and my girls. WBRCFirstAlertWeather is one of the top 3 most used apps on my phone. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND WBRCFirstAlertWeather TO ANYONE IN THE WBRC FOX 6 VIEWING AREA. On a side note I want to say THANK YOU to JP Dice and all of the weather team at Fox 6 for helping me keep my family safe.

Annoying notifications

2023-04-07

Number of notifications is ridiculous. You get notified every time the news comes on tv and in-between to tell you the sun is shining. Extremely annoying-app deleted

Life saving app

2023-05-09

I moved to Alabama six years ago from a place where tornadoes are virtually nonexistent and a man that I thank to this day told me, “download WBRCFirstAlertWeather it can save your life”.

Between this and a storm radio I feel like I’m able to respond competently to the storm threat.

Favorite news station!

2023-06-09

Always on top of of the current conditions and news around our areas. Love this station since I was young and the news was the best part of the day to watch.

Goodbye.

2023-07-11

“This application is not available in your current location.” This is what pops up when I open it now. I used it for quite a while. It served me well but doesn’t let me use it anymore so I’ll be downloading another one. Thanks.

Love the Fox 6 weather crew!

2023-08-11

All of the meteorologists at Fox 6 are the most knowledgeable, professional yet care like your next door neighbor or best friend! I know I can always depend on them to give us the most up-to-date weather information possible. We watch them all the time. No one else matches up!

Use it every day

2023-09-12

I check my Fox6 Weather app multiple times a day, from checking the current morning temperature before I walk the dog to checking the hourly forecast to know how to dress for the day. The radar is great. I feel very well prepared for whatever the weather has in store for my day and week ahead.

WBRC Weather App Review

2023-10-14

So happy to have WBRCFirstAlertWeather. We use it many times in place of our weather radio. So glad all of you keep up with the weather so we don’t need to. We are on Dish and loose signal during weather events.

Our internet service is not that great either, but we can get your app better than Dish.

So glad your app fills the gap.

Great Wx App!!!

2023-11-14

Love WBRCFirstAlertWeather more than The Weather Channel app! It is efficient and sends you real time alerts based on exactly where you are located. I traveled for 6 weeks across multiple states and it was my go-to weather app that kept me weather aware and informed. I never had to reset my location, and at each location, it sent multiple alerts. Highly recommend!

Thank you!

2023-12-16

We moved to the Gadsden area a little over a year ago. We love to start our day with you. We are so entertained in the mornings while having our coffee. Thanks for bringing a smile to our face first thing and for making it fun to watch!! We love WBRCFirstAlertWeather and we can count on you for being accurate and informative!! Mickey and the crew are funny!
We know we can’t count on you for top news, weather and the traffic!! Thanks again

Review

2024-01-16

Best weather app. Most of the time, I rely solely on WBRCFirstAlertWeather for weather updates unless severe weather is imminent, then I turn on the television for detailed updates about the current weather. For normal updates, WBRCFirstAlertWeather is more than enough, not to mention regular video updates are posted as well. With regular updates on WBRCFirstAlertWeather , keeping abreast of the weather is much easier when I don’t have time to sit and watch a report on the broadcast.

Way too many push notifications

2024-12-22

Too many push alerts with silly information.

Deleted app. Goodbye.

You cannot even check the radar for the annoying videos from window world and Nichols outfitters.

2024-12-22

They need to remove thevideos of these two companies.

The worst ever

2024-12-22

I thought since they misled people and had children stuck in schools they would be a little more accurate if I’m not mistaken a couple of people died WBRCFirstAlertWeather is not up to par deleting as soon as I finish this review sad sad sad fox should be ashamed 👎🏻👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

Crash

2024-12-22

Newest version will not open. Crashes every time!!!

Used to love this app

2024-12-22

Don’t know why they took a very good weather app and ruined it with adds that take up so much space it makes the weather chart almost unusable. Last update sure wasn’t user friendly.

Good App but....

2024-12-22

WBRCFirstAlertWeather would be great if it didn’t send alerts for useless information. I only need emergent alerts. The number of notification alerts are ridiculous... so I’m deleting WBRCFirstAlertWeather again...

Ads have taken over!

2024-12-22

This used to be my go-to weather app, but the ads are now ridiculous. They pop up and move around so you easily touch accidentally. It's bad enough to watch the full-screen ad at the beginning. Don't need the videos popping up either. Sad that I need to look for another app now. ☹️

TO MANY AD’s !

2024-12-22

Surely y’all receive enough revenue from your TV station ! When you send a severe weather update & I have to watch a commercial !!!!!! Really ! 👎

Slow loading time

2024-12-22

Please fix the issue with slow loading when opening WBRCFirstAlertWeather . Whether in WiFi or cellular data it takes forever to load up since the last update.

Update unavailable

2024-12-22

I have a 5c. Cannot update to new app. Will just remove it and find one I can update

Previously Better

2024-12-22

In the past I spoke to others about how much I enjoyed WBRCFirstAlertWeather. Now, after update, I have to orient my IPad to suit WBRCFirstAlertWeather and finding information seems much more difficult. The info is there but not as easily found. The advertisements are a nuisance. Actually thinking about searching for a new weather app.

Sorta bad

2024-12-22

Would be better if it didn't have to reload when you open it from WBRCFirstAlertWeather switcher!!

I love this app it helps when I need to know what the weather will look like

2024-12-22
