KTUL WX Reviews

This update last week was not bad at first. I was hoping the load time would improve, since we were on vacation with tornado warnings around us, but it was no better than before. But the thing I really dislike is changing the color of the watches and warnings. As far back as I can remember, the tornado warnings and watches were red and the thunderstorm warnings were yellow. Now the thunderstorm warnings and watches are in red. I just pulled up the map and about had a heart attack seeing a red warning barreling down on us. We do not have TV so KTULWX is my only weather warning and changing the colors to the opposite of what they were was a really bad move IMO. Maybe rethink the color change and the update wouldn’t be so bad.

Channel 8’s weather app is the easiest to use and navigate through of any of the local weather apps. Thanks channel 8 jim the legend

KTULWX is the best for radar and easy understanding of what is happening on the map. However, it gives an error saying app is not available in your location sometimes, is slow to load when it does actually work, and needs to be improved. Overall it’s the best for weather apps in my opinion especially for tornado and rotation warnings.

KTULWX is in need of a serious upgrade! Daytime temps and forecast are good, but overnight temps are illegible due to being too faint to read where positioned! Ridiculous!! Rain chances seem to change with Oklahoma’s wx, so can only assume it's accurate. Radar very good, but I also use another radar in conjunction which appears more accurate. Have lately had to delete app & reinstall to get it to work at all.

We enjoy the accuracy of the temperature and the map. What a map. I can dial up Stafford Virginia for my daughter or Westminister Maryland for my son. There weather is just that close.

8 is the Place for Weather. Dan and his team are the best in Tulsa.

Really wanted to use a local app, but this one is inconsistent and often wrong. I’m looking for a weather app that gets it right more often. I have noticed that none of our local channels have very good reviews for their weather apps. Hmmmm

If there is any kind of severe weather in your area, you will not be able to see the radar. Severe thunderstorm watches and warnings are marked in red that obscures the radar. Good app for daily weather conditions, but you’ll need something else if anything potentially dangerous is happening in your area.

I live west of Tulsa. When this comes up finally it marks Tulsa not where I live it needs to follow my phone like all of the rest I’m getting where I don’t use it like I used to. This whole app needs to be trashed then revamped

Great app. I've used a version of KTULWX for several years and was happy to see it come to Tulsa. I have noticed one glitch and the link to your support doesn't actually work. The glitch is that even though the GPS shows the right location, when i am in Edmond, it says i am in Bray Ok. I was in Edmond today about five mile due East of the tornado when the tornado warning sirens went off and KTULWX didn't reflect the warning because it thought I was 100 miles to the south. I expect it is an easy fix but it is important to know you are going to get the tornado warning if you are not at home and KTULWX looks like it is working. I don't see this problem anywhere between Tulsa and OKC and it works in OKC proper.

Not working

This has always been my go to weather ap, now it takes so long to load I go to a different ap!

Freezes up when opening all the time and never make it to the weather. Deleted it

When ever I need to look at the weather, the map doesn’t work. If it’s sunny and calm it works all day. But if there is a storm in the area it won’t work.

This was a Great weather App but now takes forever to load if it even does. What happened?

I hate the new radar. I liked it better before the update.

I do not like the new update and I’m deleting KTULWX bc the radar needs to go back to like it was

I've been though apple with this issue,I have no alert sounds just banners. All systems are turned on. I need to have the bugs fixed for alerts. There's a lot of others in my town that are having the same problem. This was a great app until there last "fix".

I love that KTULWX shows temperature, forecast with split screen radar and that the radar has storm tracking with labels that let me see wind speed and other details.

This is seriously the worst app ever. It warned me all day about how there was LIGHTENING in the area that had "touched" down but FAILED to mention the fact that a tornado had touched down a mile and a half from my house! Even after the tornado passed I checked KTULWX to see if it had sent out a warning and I was disappointed to see that it said I was only under a sever thunderstorm warning. Deleting KTULWX.

I Use it and I especially have all my family use it! It is the best Watch/Warning app there is! It will only alert you if you are in danger! Alerts you only if you are in the Polygon warning area! Most apps do it by county, so if you are asleep and there is something completely away from you in the other side of the county it won’t wake you up! You will be alerted Only if you are in the warned area!

This used to be my go to app. Why change colors of warnings? Red has always been tornado now it’s thunderstorms? Why do that? And what does “significant weather advisory” even mean? And the radar used to be able to be seen under the color alerts but not anymore. So disappointed.

Nice having such a highly detailed app on the local level. Fastest live radar I've seen on a phone, too.

Been on quite a lot, no crashes so far. I'd say they fixed the glitches.
