Where is lightning detected?

It would be nice if “Matt Laubhan” would give more information instead of how far away lightning is, but also the direction from my current location.

Was once great

Well let’s just say over the last few updates the app works less and less and you get more and more adds. The radar is a Glitching mess that is usually frozen.

Good that it’s local

It’s a bit of a cluttered looking app, mostly because of coloring and text. Sometimes have to navigate a bit to get to the live stream link. Mostly, I wish the voice notification could be turned off and just use an alert tone or at least customizable for specific alerts like tornado warning and not lightening detection 20 miles from my location.

Pop up video ads when you swap screens

This used to be my go to weather app. It was the only one I had on my phone. I liked that it was local but would follow you anywhere when you travelled. The radar was great and the weather warning and lightning strike screens would overlay the precipitation without having to switch back and forth like some other apps. The banner ads they had scattered through the screens were unobtrusive enough and sometimes even had things I was interested in. Now when you switch screens such as from hourly to 10 day or to radar, a video ad pops up filling the entire screen and with audio. This is very intrusive and can be disturbing if you are in a setting where you don’t want audio blaring. Plus half the banner ads are now ads for Trump. So this app is now in the trash. I would rather pay a subscription fee, which I now do for AccuWeather.

Flashing ads?!?!?

Is there a subscription to get around the annoying flashing ads? Almost feels spammy to use. Major annoyance. :/

Trash

Absolutely NOT trustworthy. Fancy Visuals but the app is trash 🗑

Ads ads and more ads

The recent update has rendered the app useless. Intrusive pop up ads for every screen. Horrible decision to do this.

Nice App

My son lives in Starkville and I use it quite often, especially here lately to check on the severe weather. Gives this Momma a little peace of mind and if I have to give him a heads up. Have actually talked with him on the phone through a night of tornados watching this App 3-1/2 hrs away because he had no power and no signal. Great Job!

Long overdue rating

My last rating for the app was 1 star. That was July 2019. There have been several updates to the WTVA weather app during that time should have made me increase the rating. My apologies for the 1 star hanging around for so long. It is once again a weather app and a reliable one at that. The ads don’t bog the radar or immediate notifications like they used to.
