It covers radar, hourly, tells you when it’ll most likely stop raining! Even if a tornado(big or small) starts it will let you know it’s starting and WHERE On the map. Literally accessible from most of the world I thank it. I don’t use my standard iPhone weather app I use this one. Even video updates,etc anything. It will alert you phone of incoming wind,rain,etc. Me and my partner love it! He introduced it to me
Lately this app has not been that great. We will get alerts for things that are not even nearby, but when an actual severe weather event takes place in the area where we live, we won’t get an alert. If we do get an alert it’s nearly 30 minutes after poo hits the fan. There have been straight up lightning strikes on our trees in the neighborhood, tornado sirens going off in our area, and random bursts of hail raining down and no alerts before or after the fact about any severe weather coming through. I recommend that if any one uses this app for alerts, to get another back up one just in case.
I highly rate it. Covers every facet of the unpredictabilities of weather. Anticipates the vagaries of Mother Nature, especially storms. Clearly lays out what to expect from good to bad weather conditions. Those at WTOC who watch the weather conditions are consummate professionals who work to give viewers all the necessary information in order to make their own decisions about whether to venture out with umbrellas or to leave them at home. Being informed is better than guessing.
Radar is by far the best I’ve seen of any of our local network affiliates, very good graphics, the best quality by far, I always use my WTOC radar app to check the weather, and I find it to be by far the best. I have been watching WTOC radar for the better part of 50 years all the way back to the Patrick Procop days and Doug Weathers, I feel like they are part of my family, and always will be! God bless America, and God bless WTOC!
My family and I just went through a tornado and after that this app has been helping to keep my anxiety low, it’s also spiked my creativity cause seeing the storm and how big or small it is is really cool! If you wanna feel safe this is the best app to use much more accurate than the basic iPhone weather app I love it!
Awesome radar and app worked wonderfully I was in Florida and the app let me use the radar for the local areas and helped keep me safe. Which I didn’t know WTOC app lets you track weather in other states and areas and just uses your location to find the radar.
The app is very slow. Takes forever to load anything. I also hate when I click away from it for 5 seconds, reopen the app, and it reloads everything. Which then takes me another 5 minutes to get back to where I was. So annoying. I really like the alerts and thing they are definitely a plus. Really the only reason I’m giving it 3 starts. It also takes forever for any videos to load.
This app used to be my go to radar app years ago until crappy updates started happening to the app. Y’all added to much and it looks wack now. The app is always slow or glitchy and NEVER has accurate readings. The app will also say “thunderstorms” and it’ll be sunny and dry. The radar displays 2 completely different map readings between precipitation radar and 24/hr radar. I can’t remember the last time this app was accurate. I think it’s been about 3 years now
I use the weather app multiple times a day before I take my dog for a walk to be prepared for whatever the weather will be. I also use it to see what the weather is for my relatives around the country and to track big storms coming our way.
I can ALWAYS count on WTOC‘s weather forecasts and the great radar! If I wonder if a storm is approaching, I first look at the radar, then the hourly forecast, then watch the news clips. I watch the morning news, then I’m away from my TV. My WTOC weather app keeps me informed!
I gave this app a 4 star because many times the radar portion doesn’t work. Forecasts are good, and weather alert updates are great. Sometimes the radar just shows “???” And will not show rain or clouds. So I actually have 4 weather apps on my phone because they all have the same tendency.
I lived in Bluffton SC eight years and learned to depend on this channel for alerts and up-to-date weather bulletins. I now live in VA and it is still my favorite weather app. Thank you for your work to keep us safe!!
App is riddled with ads and the gps always has a problem finding location. Anytime you try to view a forecast video it plays an annoying ad video or commercial
Don’t understand how the news app is optimized but the weather app isn’t. Will change rating once it’s optimized for both the iPad and iPhone X, until then will delete and use another weather app for local support. Smh, again news app decent and optimized weather app nope. Makes sense right.
This app continually informs me I must connect to wifi even though I am connected. It should use my data regardless. Will not pull up radar...when I need to see what’s happening with the weather it would be nice to have an app that works!
Feel the app is lacking lately. Seems to me that the hourly and daily forecast do not jibe to often anymore. Makes things confusing when using the app for work related things. Could be just me?
