This is most realistic weather I’ve ever seen
Ruined after major update
And you guys thought you improved it? You’re lucky if the radar updated after 7 or 8 minutes. A lot could happen during that time when you have thunderstorms. The radar loop goes so fast that you can hardly tell when the loop starts and ends. Of course the user cannot adjust the speed of the loop. You had to ruin it. Good job.
Great Weather app
I have tried just about every weather app there is and the wink weather app is one of the best, even compared to the big pay apps. LOVE the weather map and the features. WOW, the features are abundant and customizable! ONLY ONE THING MISSING: A watch app / complication so I can access the weather at a glance. That’s all, I’m done now. I have found my go to weather app. Wink wink. 😉
12.07.2021 update bugs
sure do miss the old app The new one sucks
Used to be better
What happened to the cone shapes that showed the direction the storms were moving? That was what set this app apart. Now the radar is just like any other app.
Painter
Always comes through
Weather app
I’m watching wink news. It’s telling me that there’s 60% rain tomorrow but on the app shown 20 who do I believe it’s the same news
Best Local Weather App, Hate The Ads
I have no idea why it’s taken me this long to get this app. By far, the absolute best local weather app out of all of our local stations. It complements the national weather app I use very well. The reason I gave it 4 stars though… I hate ads. I know, the ads pay for the app. But like others, please offer an in app purchase to remove the ads. Then it’ll be 5 stars!
Heading Downhill
This app used to be extremely accurate and the only one you needed to look at. The past year or so, it has become almost completely worthless!! It is very generalized and almost never accurate.
New map temperature
Please add back the temperature numbers The color is OK but not as helpful as the actual numbers Otherwise it’s the best weather app
Great radar and forecasts
I live across the state from Wink and I used it in the past in Rotonda but I use it now in Boynton Beach to double check the forecasts I see here. Wink is always correct!
Matt is gone so am I
Wink Liberal weather went too far! We all love Matt! Did you count the minutes he was away from his family during hurricanes! Deleting all Wink apps today!
New APP Icon
New icon is terrible and hard to notice. The previous one was perfect and easy to spot among others.
Hardly ever accurate
Beautiful app n easy to use,but it is hardly ever accurate. Maybe because we are in a tough location. Radar can’t be yellow n it’s not raining. The hourly forecast is mostly inaccurate. The other news organizations have a less snazzy interface but the radar is more accurate. Its unfortunate. It’s a well developed user experience.
Look out the Window
Added the App recently and honestly find the predictions to be very unreliable . If the app shows current conditions that’s nice but I can get the same thing by listening and looking out the window.
Best
The best and on time!
Have it not loving it
This is the only weather app that I like here in Southwest Florida. I deleted it when they fired Matt Devitt. But I found out real quick. This is the only radio station that I could get with a free app.
Inaccurate
Found this app to be insufficient when it comes to severe weather. MyRadar is a lot better.
The radar map is usually wrong.
Right now it’s raining very very hard and the radar map doesn’t even show it’s raining!
One of most handiest apps
I love this app. It is one of the most useful apps I have. I use it to determine when I can do certain things in the yard. I also use it when I am about to go out for a run. I know if it’s going to rain and if I need to protect my phone. If it is cold, I’ll know how to dress. Also very useful during hurricanes—and you know we get them.
Garbage
The producers fired the man that kept them in business. Bring back Matt and I’ll download.
Your app is terrible
I’ve tried to send in pictures and it can’t get passed the picture or my phone number. I’ll just stop sending pictures
Missing Matt
I miss Matt Devitt and his passion for forecasting weather.
Deleted this app
Deleted this app bc Wink news fired Matt Devitt, who has been the most reliable and accurate weatherman in SWFL. Will not watch this news channel ever again
Radar track
The vaulted Doppler 3X radar only actively shows what has happened, not what is going to happen. Worthless!
Great radar coverage
Love the fact it’s live on my phone
TJ
Latest version radar does not work with iPad.
Great app for tracking Florida weather
App is really helpful when determining where storms are happening and tracking severe weather
Radar
Current radar update is very unreliable
A MUST HAVE APP!!!!
I absolutely love this app! The notifications are informative and being able to see the weather in real time not only gives me comfort but enables me to plan my day! Florida weather is so unpredictable, this app is a must have!! I would give it 10 stars!!
Local
Your app does not show my location on map!!! What’s up with that???
Awesome
Lll
Not good
Definitely unreliable
