This app works for me and my family. Sends alerts before the storm hits. We have unlimited data so..... for us,data usage is not an issue. Congrats Aaron on rockfords best 2018 weather Personality!!!! YOU ROCK MAN.
This app is a data hog. Two times I was camping during bad weather and was keeping track of the radar. Both times the app sucked all my available data. If you have unlimited data then this app is for you but you don’t then think twice about using this app. After having all my data drained I’ve deleted this app.
It hasn’t worked properly since the last update. If I quit it and restart it, it will open a couple of times—very slowly—and then start stalling again. Too bad, it was a decent weather app except for too many notifications and videos.
Good app so far. Seems accurate. But seriously, why are the dew point and wind in white numbers with a white cloud behind it? Makes it difficult to see sometimes.
The graphics and radar look better. But that doesn’t make up for the fact that the satellite images from MapBox for this area are at least 6 years old. Not on par with the quality of weather reporting that the meteorologists at WIFR do.
I loved the app before the update. To much junk on the page now. What’s with the notifications now ? It was for emergencies, now it’s a couple times a day just about everyday telling me about sunshine
Constantly have to be careful to avoid clicking on the giant ads. There are even smaller ones in between the days. The accuracy of this weather team is awesome, however the app stinks.
Ever since I downloaded iOS 17, this app has stopped working properly and won’t open, as it stays on the loading screen. I would like you to fix this issue soon. Thanks.
National weather service had tornado warnings posted for Boone and Southern Winnebago that did not appear anywhere on this app. Just thunderstorm warnings. While I like the radar portion of this app. I do not appreciate the slow response severe weather alerts. Looking for a new app. August 10, 2020
We love you, Mark Henderson and the 23 Weather team! (Don't let the shallow nitwits wanting to see some TV program get you down. You are correct. Lives have changed tonight.) You gave us enough warning to get everybody into the basement, including gear, tonight. (Two large parrot cages and doggy necessities, too.) It was clear how serious and life threatening this situation was, no doubt about it. Information was timely and accurate, complete and well localized. Also exquisitely helpful was being able to livestream WIFR 23 News/ Weather in the basement with the iPod or iPhone. Knew exactly what was going on, where, from minute to minute and could s e e it as well. Thank you. Bless you all. Please keep it up. You keep us safe; we trust you. You earn it, every time.
Best radar maps I've seen, even better than some of the other weather apps I paid extra money for. A little slow to load, but very accurate. Please update for high res retina display graphics and at least a retina display-optimized icon! Looks fuzzy and blurry on my homepage next to all the other app icons.
I like your app very much but when I went to your closing page I found nothing. There are many weather apps out there but the thing I liked most about your app was that. It would have been very useful these last few days,January 7 & 8 and who knows what's ahead.
The map area is way too small. I can't make the bottom window smaller; it takes up way too much room. Please don't put out new stuff until it is as good as, or better than the current one.
