69News WX Reviews

Since the update, there is sometimes NO forecast video! Also, the new ads before the videos start are SO ANNOYING! They are the same ads, usually and really annoying!
Tonite (Tuesday) the forecast was for Monday night into Tuesday!
Trying to get a forecast video for Tuesday night into Wednesday!
Also, as someone else pointed out, the forecasts are wrong a large percentage of the time! I depend on the weather for my livelihood and saying it might rain or it might not rain is not helpful. I can say the same thing and I’m not getting PAID to say that!
I need to know for sure! I know weather is not an exact science but-come on! With all the radar and tech, get it together!

Since weather forecasters have no clue what the weather will be 69NewsWX is a complete waste. Forecast for his weekend all sun as of late Friday night. Now Saturday am and raining - go figure. Ok tried to give no stars but have to do at least one. Understand this is a NO star review.

They changed 69NewsWX so much, I only open it up once a week, just hoping it goes back it the way it started out, with the radar up front and easy to see and video forecast was full screen too! Please FIX!!

Just too many Ads, Navigation changed and not as easy to use. I deleted all apps, they’re all pretty much the same with the amount of ads and overall design.

The new update is not an improvement and increases ad size. Also humidity level is hard to find or isn’t provided. The old app was much nicer.

The ability to turn off auto play for the videos would be nice too.

Radar on map box is nonexistent sometimes and makes 69NewsWX useless to those of us who rely on this to care for livestock. Old app was better.

iPad mini 2

After the iOS update to 11.3 with the floating dock, 69NewsWX puts it’s symbol in the dock with either a small arrow or a small alarm clock. I have the Recents part turned OFF in the OS.
ALL alerts in the OS and 69NewsWX are turned OFF.
STILL 69NewsWX puts it’s symbol in the Recents part of 69NewsWX .
I can only get rid of it if I restart the iPad. Sometimes as many as three times.
So I sadly deleted the WFMZ Weather app.

I now use Weather Bug.

I can no longer access 69NewsWX . I tried deleting and reinstalling and I was able to access once after reinstalling but only once. I hope there is a fix soon.

There is definitely not any increase in performance with any of your updates. Go back to your old app.

Since the latest update 6 days ago, it’s hit or miss if 69NewsWX will work. 90% of the time it sits on the opening screen and you can’t get 69NewsWX to open.

Why does the map not show where you live or satellite or be less cluttered. Horrible update

Since the latest update, 69NewsWX no longer works. It just sits on the opening screen.

Had to delete 69NewsWX after getting alarming notifications of, heaven help us, RAIN. WFMZ, if it is four o’clock in the morning, do not wake me up for rain.

Since recent update, the weather App doesn’t open at all.

Will only open in portrait mode! (IPad Air) Is there anyway to get it to open in landscape??

It doesn’t work at all 🤦🏻‍♂️

I rely on 69NewsWX to look at the radar. Although, when i go to the radar tab, if i click the "past" button, then "play", it shows up fine with the real precipitation on the radar matching the colors of the map precipitation meter but, then when i click the "future" button, then "play", it shows the radar but, it looks completely different than the "past". It will show up like greyish clouds with no matching color to the precipitation meter at bottom of the map. So, in other words, there's no way of telling what the "future" radar will really be, only the "past" radar. Please fix this bug. Thanks so much.

Makes a huge deal about not making a sound if your phone is in DND or Night Shift. But what happens 10 seconds after it loads my info and tells me that? A commercial starts playing REALLY loudly (my phone is set to vibrate and night shift) with no way to stop it. May uninstall.

I had the older version of 69NewsWX for quite a few years and loved it! I also like this new version. Especially all the info you can now get for each of the ten days. I especially like being able to look at the live weather video without having to go to the syncbac app! Great App! The only thing I would like to see added is a direct email link from 69NewsWX to the weather crew for questions and to send photos!!!

I never get any alerts. And yes I do have set to give me alerts properly. I have StormTracker 6 from Philly. I get alerts for three different states including where I live, that I have set to alert me and I get alerts for every area I have set. This local based weather app give me no alerts all for Berks or any where. I use to get news and weather alerts from the old 69news app. This new one is awful. It is useless. I do have the most up to date IOS too.

Thank you for optimizing for the iPhone X!!! I am super satisfied! I love 69NewsWX because of its accuracy and now it’s even better!!

Why did you change the radar map? Before the update you had the best one! Now I have to settle for the other weather app. Well it was nice using you. Good luck in the future :)
