Trusted local weather
I trust Dakota News Weather to keep me informed on the current and upcoming weather!
Too many layers
There’s just too many layers in order to get to the actual radar map!
Weird alerts
I like the app most of the time. It is helpful and easy to use, but wondering about the alerts today. Why do you need to interrupt my day as an alert to tell me it’s raining and that the days are getting shorter? That’s not an alert.
Station alerts
Station alerts used to be just for new watchs/warnings etc. now they are for every stinking little thing. For example, the one today was for don’t get used to the warmer weather. That is not something I need to be alerted for. Please fix!
Lightning alerts.
The only thing missing on this app is in the notifications section is lightning alerts. Lightning alerts are critical for weather alerts.
Great weather app
Easy to navigate, like the graphics and videos
Radar not working
This was always my favorite app until recently. The radar is not working correctly anymore. It no longer has past or the combination past and future. The latest update didn’t fix this again.
Just wondering.
Could you possibly add a search bar? Would be nice to be able to search to see what other locations are getting for weather in the coming hours or days. is there a way to add locations to a list so you can go to the list and click on whatever location you want?
Radar
Radar animation stops halfway through the 24-hour run. Deleted and reinstalled. Didn’t work.
New weather map
Not a fan of the new weather map. I like being able to see the alerts and the radar overlaid, not having to select them separately. Also, radar moves to fast with no pause at the current picture before starting over, makes it hard to see what’s happening now in the loop. I’m a retired airline pilot, and I used this app around the world for many years to get a radar picture at my current location, now I don’t like it. Please go back if possible.
They are amazing
I have never seen such a good weather app that is so accurate and nice. 👍🏼
Useless on my iPad
Opened the app and it just locks up and no response. Deleted it and re-downloaded and same issue. Deleted and moved on to Weather Channel app. Keloland’s Storm Tracker app was ruined last year when it no longer worked in Landscape mode so I guess the only other option is the weather channel app.
Volume
Turn it up. Max on my phone and Bluetooth can barely hear
Do not want a video for weather updates
I just want to read what the weather update is, not watch a video. Would be nice to have both options.
Best
Recommended by my cousin and love the hourly temps and weather. Has been accurate as we’ve traveled the US in the past month.
Radar image
The
Radar announced late
The severe thunderstorm warning for Minnehaha County came on the weather radio after it was about over. Your warnings didn’t agree on TV or cell phones either until the storms were already or had happened. The campgrounds didn’t have adequate warnings. You better check your systems. This was ridiculous!!!
Please fix radar
Radar only works during the first use. Then I have to kill the app and relaunch before it will show the radar map again.
My experience
It’s good but sometimes it doesn’t show the weather in my area
I can no longer use
Loved the app. Best weather app out there, but radar no longer works.
no more radar for past
i don’t use the futurecast radar due to being inaccurate and always used the past radar which you must’ve decided to be useless and take off so now i got nothing but a glitchy patchy “future” predictions that are more inaccurate than playing a blindfolded darts game. please bring it back
Update is terrible
Background color and temp color is too close to the same
Great to see weather wen I need it
In these times I need to know what weather conditions at a moments notice THANKYOU
Latest update is terrible
Have used this app for years. Latest update made the radar completely useless. Glitches constantly, shows lightning bolts, but no clouds or rain intensity. Also, no longer shows storm paths and tracking. Please fix! Want the old version back that was 100% reliable for years.
Not working
First stopped working on iPad now not working on my iPhone
Cannot read white letters
Since the update, the new lighter background does not contrast with the white letters. It is very hard to read.
Awesome
Love this app
Radar
Miss the old radar☹️app.
Videos have no audio
The new weather app emphasizes video reports over text, but the video clips have no sound no matter what settings I confirm.
Weather
It doesn’t do much good to just see pictures without hearing about the actual weather forecast.
Used to work, now won’t open
Seriously...whatever changes you made a few weeks ago, fix it. This used to be my go-to weather app, and now it constantly says I can’t use the app for my location. I used to be able to get around it by closing down and re-opening, but now as of this morning I can’t even do that and the error code has changed slightly. It says I still can’t open it, but there is an error code attached to it now. PLEASE fix this!!!
So hard to see
I really wish you would realize that white font on a light blue background is really hard to see. Especially when the blue background is really distracting. The floating screen is so dumb and I hate it when sites use it. We don’t use apps like this one because we want a “cool looking” app. We use it because we want easy to follow information that isn’t jumbled up with movement and hard to see. The ads are bigger than the info. I waited a long time for you to figure this app out and it never gets better. I think I’ll find a new one. This ones not for me.
Terry
Must accurate of all weather sites, great ,keep the good job as you guys rock!
Can no longer trust this app
Used to love this app. Had a thunderstorm warning today and the app map gave me no info. I can no longer trust
Not available in your location
All of a sudden it won’t ever open. It keeps saying not available in your location but I’m at home, its always worked here before, I have wi-fi and there is no reason it shouldn’t work. My husband is sitting right next to me and his works. I deleted and reinstalled the app, it worked for about a day before I got that message again
Ms way
With the new update, The lettering in white with a white background is very difficult to read
Terrible upgrade!
Can’t read a thing with the new color scheme!!!
Sun set errors
The sun set and sun rise time for Pierre SD should be central time. The time is shown in mountain time zone. The newest update has white letters on a grey background making it very ditto read. Somebody needs to learn how to use better contrasting colors.
