Good but missing tornado warnings on radar

Kelsil on

What happened to the tornado warnings and watches on the radar? I rely on those red and yellow boxes on the radar. If they do not get added back I will be forced to use another weather app, and I don't want to do that’s why I’m not sure what the plan was to do it because I’m just trying not sure if you can do that but if I have a better plan is I would just do the other day or not because you can go ahead with that but you have a chance of it if you’re going out there with me I don’t know if that’s the best o way you can go I would think about doing something that you know to be in your way but I’m just a Ty or if it’s not a big thing and I would just do it I would be able and then I would have a little more flexibility to do it myself I just don’t know if it’s!

Too many ads

wontacceptmyreview on

The ads are longer than the videos. I can barely see long enough to figure what is going on and where it is happening

When seconds count…advertisement comes first

kjhelbing on

I have a weather radio, but I depend on apps such as this one also for weather alerts, and to view the radar. Today, just a day after the Baring Tornado, I received a weather notification from this app, it was an alert for approaching storms. I tapped the notification and it brought me right into the app’s latest notifications screen, but I had to watch an advertisement before I received the details of the approaching weather! How absurd! Lately it is taking a couple minutes for the radar to correctly load, the radar will flash numerous times, it will show the storm tracks, but not the actual boundaries of the cell. I came here to see if the app needed updated and found that the app is up to date. There needs to something done here. I’d be willing to pay a fee so I don’t have to watch an advertisement first, when I receive a weather notice. I have screen recorded the process of viewing the notification/advertisement and will send it and a copy of this review to WGEM.

The way the weather works

dhhggjdhkdxv on

When I just had my regular weather app that comes in the iPhone I didn’t know there was a way better one out there. When I first downloaded the WGEM wether app I thought it was going to be the same as me other one but it turns out the it show the actual weather chances and what it will be like the next day it makes sure that you are aware of the temperature and humidity but also helps you when you are in need of safety thank you WGEM for keeping my family and me safe!

Greatest free non-subscription needing weather app for locals

The radar map is a little glitchy it other than that it works fine

Ads

Kimology41 on

My only complaint is when I get a severe weather alert or a tornado warning I have to watch an ad before knowing if I should run for cover or not. I feel in those circumstances, everyone’s safety is more important than a commercial.

Radar

Illini 77945 on

Radar slow to fill in or doesn’t work at all. Probably because some video ad plays continuously at the bottom of screen

Storm tracking mobile app

Argus316 on

Tried other weather apps doesn’t even come close to this one. Very accurate and I can actually count on this weather app to give me update information. Clear and understandable videos. I actually live in Colchester IL so I watch WGEM out of Quincy. I use This weather app to me update and events and the weather

Just here to make them money

Pantstain on

Such little effort put into this app. It’s just here to spam you with unskippable 30+ second video ads, and banner ads everywhere like it’s 1995. just to show you 8 seconds of sped up radar without even any narration. What a joke. It’s obvious this app is here to make money first, and inform ppl second.
