KSL Weather Reviews

I typically, in the past, have used KSLWeather everyday for many years and have been very pleased with most of its contents. However, when I downloaded the latest update several months ago it quit working on my iPhone but still works on my iPad? I sent an email to customer service two or three weeks ago and I haven’t received any type of response to the issue nor have I seen any update to KSLWeather during this same time period... If and when the problem is fixed I will upgrade my rating!

This used to be a great app years ago but each iteration is worse than the previous. Now I get weather alerts but when I go to check it I get a video ad that I can't mute. So if I'm in a situation where I can't have an ad blaring then I go to another weather app. I've finally just started going to the other weather apps before KSL. I also go to other apps now because KSL is slow and bloated. It's too bad that they ruined a perfectly good app with greed and incompetence.

I’ve had to delete and then download KSLWeather several times for my iPad. It works for a few days or even a few weeks and then suddenly it freezes for no apparent reason. Once it is not working the only solution seems to be to get rid of KSLWeather and then go back to KSLWeather Store. It’s very annoying.

Also, the hourly forecasts sometimes seem to contradict the information in the daily forecasts. I would rather have consistent information that is wrong than contradictory information.

KSLWeather is great on iPhone but TERRIBLE on iPad! What happened to KSL Vortex? Is it ever coming back? KSL Weather is so sluggish on the iPad, and it’s, clearly, not designed with iPad in mind. In landscape view, the black bar takes up much too much space that should be dedicated to the map. There is also a very long lag to switch to landscape view, which is not the default even if you have your iPad in landscape position when you open KSLWeather . Please update KSL Vortex to run on iOS 11 and bring it back!

Used to be great but now I can’t play the past and future radar. So now it’s not much use. Seeing exactly where storms are tracking given my exact location is really helpful. Other apps and news services do. I don’t know what happened in the updates and why this ability was taken away. Bring it back and KSLWeather would be 4 or 5. For now I’ll have to use the apps and news services.

My favorite thing about KSLWeather was seeing where the precipitation was happening, but their newest update has made that hard to see. Anytime there’s cloud cover, I get a generic pink, purple, or blue overlay that I cannot get rid of, and makes it super hard to see the precipitation areas. I’ve toggled with the overlay features many times and nothing changes. It would be very nice if there was an update that fixed this because it’s super annoying.

I am so pleased with KSLWeather! I had no idea that it would alert me, not just in the SL valley but all over the US. It has kept me informed about lighting and other weather wherever I go! I highly recommend it!

Since the last update the weather symbols (Sun, cloud, etc) on the 10 day view are no longer in color and I can’t figure out how to change it. Will use a different app because I can no longer look quickly at the weather symbols to know what to expect because they all blend together.

Lots of cool features, but KSLWeather seems designed to use as much data as possible. KSLWeather will re-pull data even when you immediately switch back from any other task. Weather doesn’t change in 30 seconds. This is especially frustrating when you have poor cell coverage.

KSLWeather was definitely in need of more than just a standard behind the scenes update, so thanks for that! But... it now takes roughly 20 seconds for KSLWeather to load. About 10 seconds slower than the previous version. If that gets fixed then I'd bump into the rating for sure.

An update has made the weather icons all grey. It’s annoying to not be able to instantly look and see that there’s a yellow sun or a grey rain cloud or white snow flake and instead have to carefully look at each icon in grey to see what the weather will be like for the week. Please bring back the colored icons.

I am just curious as to why KSLWeather is quite a bit different in the forecast than what is on the weather report on KSL. I can watch the weather report with Kevin Eubank and look at my app and they’re two different forecasts.

Have loved KSLWeather and hasn’t given me to much trouble but now it’s frozen on 10 day forecast. Doesn’t change when I change locations. it’s not accurate anymore. Please fix the bugs.

This used to be a good app but time elapse precipitation map crashes occasionally. The air quality feature used to work but no longer works. Can’t get it to display anything. Running latest iOS on iPhone 12

I only use KSLWeather to watch the latest video forecast. 50% of the time the video doesn’t even load. They need to to get rid of whoever they have hired to write their Apps.. the other KSL app is just basically their mobile site in an app. Don’t download KSLWeather unless you want disappointment.

I loved the older map features but after this last update it’s gone south. Stop with these stupid updates and bring us the old style back. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it, come on ksl you should know better.

Several times KSLWeather has given me an alert for Salt Lake City when I have my home, in TN, selected for alert updates. It happens every few months. It’s confusing and annoying.

Nice app if you are sitting at home in Utah, but what if you want to check the Utah weather while traveling somewhere else? Nope. You get error and can’t open KSLWeather . Please fix this bug so that when I am overseas, I can look at the Utah weather forecast.

KSLWeather just updated and for some reason they did away with color it was much better when the weather yellow sunshine instead of this grayscale crap. It just looks cheap and it makes it much less visually quick to see the weather it all looks the same. Ugh. 👎🏼

When will bugs be squashed in KSLWeather? I get “network error” pop ups on cellular and WiFi all the time, even though KSLWeather sometimes loads. And also, KSLWeather sometimes never loads, freezes up and I have to force quit. Really feels like one of the first iPhone apps ever.

KSLWeather has had ongoing issues on a tablet. It will get better briefly and then revert to the same irritating behavior of opening up in landscape for a brief moment and then rotating 90 degrees into portrait. The developers just can’t seem to get it right.

I used to use KSLWeather most of the time because it was reliable. The last update it would freeze up and very slow. Deleted it went to other local apps Storrs has you beat by a long shot! Used to rely on KSLWeather not so much any longer it’s lists it’s touch.

KSLWeather has just become too cumbersome. It is slow to start up. Love all the information within KSLWeather but like I said, it has just become too slow

This is my fav weather app. Easy to use. The future radar prediction is so useful. Even works when you're outside of SLC.

Nice update, just in time for Christmas. App doesn’t work, just shows the home picture. I rely on this for snow removal. Not much good when It doesn’t work. Maybe check it out before you release a new app. Especially before the biggest travel time of the season. Major disappointment!

This was once a great app on both iPhone and iPad, especially the 5 star ‘Vortec’ version. After that it’s been a solid 4 star performer until I updated to iOS 11.3 on my iPad, and now it doesn’t load up but hangs on the start-up splash screen, hence the 1 star rating for an app that doesn’t work on iPad currently.

KSLWeather has been horrible since last winter when the update changed the satellite map to look like a black and white wasteland with no transparency for radar. I keep checking to see if it’s improved or gone back to the better map, but so long as the bad map remains, I can’t use KSLWeather.

The latest map color schemes (all three) are far worse than the old version. Getting less useful with ea h new version.
