Absolutely The Best Weather-cast ever
I have lived in quite a few cities and major cities in the US in my lifetime! I have never seen another weather-cast as Good as KOLD 13. This program is certainly Top Shelf… the information given , the stats and the charts and comparison and information about records is so interesting. I look forward to watching the “show” every day. I won’t miss it. Everyone on the staff and the presenters are fantastic, and truly professional. Keep up the excellent work !!! I have the First Alert App and love it. It’s an excellent tool.
It’s off from web site
I use this app for many years for my work, but the app is off considerably the last couple years you go to your website and it has different readings for the weather than it is on this app. Why would that be? Very frustrating they both should say the same thing.
Incongruities
Overall, I like this app and how it encompasses hourly, daily, radar, and even traffic. The one complaint I have is that if you look at the hourly versus the daily, that often times, the temps and predicted rainfall often don’t match up, not even closely.
So cluttered
This app used to be great, but now at least 50% of its screen real estate is taken up by huge, distracting ads you have to scroll through. Too much effort, I’m going back to the iPhone native app.
it’s ok
too many ads and i don’t like that it reloads every time i reopen it but other than that 10/10 efficiency
Rain or Shine
I appreciate the meteorologist at KOLD. I like knowing what’s happening in all of Arizona but especially in Cochise County where I reside. It helps me to plan my day be it a roaring storm or searing heat. I appreciate the text warnings for all the first alert weather days.
Virus infected
The ad block on the header page has a virus that targets iPhones
Radar
Your past and Future don’t show right, I can’t seem to get the radars to show right at all and don’t know if it’s the app or being out here in Benson Az.
Weather
This app is so slow to load. Not always accurate. The whole channel 13 news app is far inferior to channel 9.
Can’t read more temps
I’ve used this app for years. Definitely the most accurate for Tucson weather. But I use others because the low temps on the Daily screen are posted in a color that makes them hard to read against the background of the app
Great app, except…
I have to always start the app twice. Whereas the first start shows only blank weather statistics, the second start shows completely populated statistics.
Too many ads
Too many ads, you can’t even watch a video without 14 ads popping up ridiculous worthless
Weather app
The clock wasn’t broken, why fix it? Go back!
What happened to water Temp?
The only reason I kept the app was because there was a realistic sea surface water temp layer and now its gone! That was a really good forecasting feature for hurricane season. Now what??? So much for “News Now” Im currently considering other apps right after this
Skm
Radar not working correct wants me to download weather & radar application? Not liking that
Best!!
Every aspect of KOLD news always keeps me informed and to be prepared. Everyone on air is wonderful to watch & listen to for everything…past, present & what is ahead. They are so knowledgeable, professional, courteous and respectful. I always look forward to the broadcast no matter what I have going on because of the people, places & things that are told about to viewer’s attention. Thank you so very much KOLD for being the best to ever watch!
Not Good
Too cluttered with non-weather info
Frustrating
I have your app on three devices. The forecasts are very different on each. All set for SaddleBrooke. Temps and %,s are off by as much as five degrees and the %,s are off by 20 or 30%! Very frustrating!
Radar
The radar is good for actual time, but future is pretty poor. Storms disappear in 15 min on future side, poof, gone! Pretty poor when I can see the storms out the windows.
Negative
Too many choices if presenters
First alert app
Wont update😝. Just sits there indicating it needs to be updated!
Erin”The weather lady “
Awesome coverage on weather conditions throughout southern Arizona especially, on the Tohono O’Odham Nation where storm conditions are always extremely dangerous. Erin and her weather crew are constantly giving updates on current weather conditions. Erin is not intimidated on how to pronounce Certain villages on the Tohono O’Odham Nation. Some weather forecasters refuse to acknowledge parts of the nation, Not Erin. She does her best! The Tohono O’Odham Nation is always watching your forecast Erin, keep up the amazing job. Blessed wishes….
Inaccurate
Simply inaccurate. That’s it.
Comprehensive weather
You have always been my go-to for weather everywhere ! Keep up the great work !!! bobbi gentry
Ads
How can you view the information when the ads are constantly popping up. Very annoying, will uninstall.
The weather app to have
The best weather app I’ve ever used!!!!
Latest update crashes when using maps
So much for the late update to keep from crashing while using map..... still does it. Can I give the app 0 stars?
Very good choose this
I always thought that all weather apps were boring until I got this. This is very inclusive to me especially because I am visually impaired. It has the accessibility compatibility I need so I can use my screen reader. I love it so much. Thank you for making this happen possible.
Horrible New Map!!
This latest update is the end of my use of KOLD’s weather APP. The satellite image looks like something out of a horror film. The storm tracks are confusing and out of sync with all other weather apps. The severe weather grids are colored completely different than other apps. Causing complete confusion upon glancing at the map. Severe thunderstorm watches are in red. This is normally reserved for Tornado. Warning are also the same red so it’s impossible to tell where there’s a watch or warning without tapping the boxes. Whoever decided to make these changes needs to leave. Please put the app back the way it was. Until then, I’m gone.
💖💖💖💖💜💜💙💚💛💛🧡❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Love this app.
Love this app but, can you make it more descriptive because I’m Luke I’m visually impaired. Which means I can’t see. Can you make more image descriptions.
Does not.work
App stops functioning after one day. I have to delete it and download it again for it to work. This is a daily occurrence.
