WSFA First Alert Weather App Reviews

Good app, but hate the ads. I am willing to pay for ad-less version.

A great app that brings Alabama up to date in the digital world. Way beyond your competitors, thank you!

Map? What map? It crashes as soon as it loads. Cant you fix it? We may really need it in the next few weeks! Right now it is USELESS!!

App is nice but could be improved noticeably since constantly suffers crushes and bugs. Updates are not as consistent as they should. Although is supported by one of the most amazing meteorologist team in Alabama (WSFA12 team) IT could do more to deliver the same efficiency through this app. Waiting for updates!!! Vote C+.

Sick Dude! Dis app got swag yall!!!!!!!! Hot tamale Im sweatin woo!

why is past the default setting on the doppler? I dont need to know what the past weather is! current and future I already know what happened before that

I have an iPhone 5S and every time I open the app it closes on its own. It will not stay open long enough to check the radar or see the weather at all. I have tried when Im using wifi, 4G LTE, and 3G and it doesnt work at all. This app would be very handy where I live if the app would stay open long enough to view the weather.

WSFA weather you stepped it up with the new look and functionality, Very nice!!

Newest version is awful...wish I could give it no stars...they took a simple, uncomplicated app that gave you the current and future weather and "updated" it in a complicated, unfriendly user experience. After using it for the past week, I am abandoning for a more simple interface where I can actually find the weather...

It is terrible!!! Please bring back the one we had!! I hate this new one! It is so hard to use.

I know they are wanting their weather app to be different than the norm and stand out amongst the rest but this one is terrible. Difficult to use and the weather radar map doesnt even work most of the time. Doesnt show anything on the radar but its down pouring, thundering, and lightening here at this moment. Radar map doesnt even show the play button anymore to animate the past or future radar. PLEASE bring back the old setup! It wasnt broke and worked very well!

I have always like the wsfa weather apps radar the best. However this last update makes using the app way more complicated than it should be. I liked the format of the old app better. Everything was pretty much in the same place. I could look at the radar and the daily rain percentages all in the same place. Would really like to go back to the old app format.

I used the app everyday until the update. Since the update I have switched over to a different app that is similar to yalls before the update. The app intellicast is the one I use now. You really didnt have to change the layout, it was great the way it was!!!

The new update isnt as user-friendly and has a lot of advertisements. Which is probably why they did it.

Ill start this review by saying I really liked the old app. That being said I want to explain what I dislike about the update. First I dislike that I have to click so many times to find he info I need. The small boxes that house the info just dont give me the info easily and truthfully are hard to see unless you click into it. Multi clicks trying to find info take up a lot of time, I truly liked the way the old app opened to a full radar with info running down the bottom. Second there are just too many places to try to figure out where to find the info I want. Its very clunky for me. Third, I enabled push but with an advisory in place, it didnt push to my phone. So that is a disappointment. While this app was my go to for weather, I find myself going to other apps to get right to the info I need. Basically this version has a lot of visual fluff thats not really needed, and will send you to many screens for info that were once easy to get to.

The list of features in carousel form is a bit over designed. There is nothing clean about the ergonomics of the application.

Could you update the app to let me know when lightning is at least 7 miles away instead of just 5 miles?

Great app for weather. I love the whole weather team at WSFA. I do not like the lightning warning for strikes that are 5 miles away. At 2am I have woken up several times to a man warning me about lightning. It does not matter if my phone is set to silent or not. With so many warnings, people will get to ignore these and not listen when its something serious like a tornado warning.

Like the app, hate the ads...

The new format is undesirable. Im going to try and use this new format but I am definitely not please with any of the changes. Dump the ads!!
