Good app. Great weatherman.
The app is as functional as any and features Madison’s best weatherman.
Garbage
Used to be a go-to app. It’s the exact same as NBC15’s app too. Removed the storm tracks/alerts. Now it’s just a screen full of colored boxes that doesn’t allow you to see anything. Do better.
Great app but please improve readability by changing photo
I use this app daily and find it to be a great source of weather info. However, the daytime photo of downtown Madison has a lot of white in it and obscures the dew point and humidity numbers at the bottom of the screen- both numbers that I look at a lot. You could either pick a different photo that is darker at the bottom or put in a gradual shaded area at the bottom of the photo in Photoshop to increase readability. Thanks!
Was great until flooded with ads
This was the best weather app in Madison—far superior to the ones provided by the other local tv channels, but now it’s practically unusable. I gave up reading a forecast for today’s weather after it was interrupted three times by Google ads that gave no option to skip, nor did they give any indication of how long they would last or how to go back to the content I was trying to read. If this doesn’t change soon, I’m uninstalling.
Too many ads
Would have rated higher if the app was not littered with ads.
Great app
I wish this app worked on CarPlay.
Problem.. :(
Ok, so every time I click Past + Future in radar it crashes the app, please fix.
Good but ads
The ads last soooooo long, otherwise it’s good
Where is the dew point.
I no longer see the dew point on this app. It used to be in the main report box but it’s now gone. I need that vs the humidity percent.
Dewpoint tweak would be appreciated
So far this is my best-found replacement for Dark Sky, but we really really need dewpoint on the extended hourly forecast. Would that be so hard to add?
Fix for SNOWFLAKE
I had the same problem of having to re-boot 27stormtrack and not getting it to open. My solution (that worked!!) was to delete the app, wait a while, and then go into the app store and re-load it from icloud. This DID work and I have 27stormtrack opening up again!!! Try it.
Slow and lots of glitches
I have to try to open the app several times to be able to view the forecast if I can even. Radar always freezes. Used to be my go to app.
Ads prevent tornadoes
I generally love this app... Except HEY DEVELOPERS! if you tell me there is a tornado or severe weather WARNING, how about NOT first making me watch an ad??? I really want to first READ the warning and find out what is bearing down on me. I'm thinking. "How can I prevent injury or death" not "Maybe I need different health coverage?." SURELY your app knows if I am in a severe weather zone. Could you maybe make THAT the priority? I'm in a severe thunderstorm warning, and I actually DO have GHC... should I mychart this to Member Services? Or should I take shelter? So hard to decide!
Too many ads!!!
I am tired of all the ads in the app now. It didn’t use to be this way. It’s getting so annoying that I’m about ready to uninstall it!
The new update
There’s bugs in the new update. Won’t allow to follow me on ipad. If this worked correctly I would have gave 5 stars.
5 stars
This is a really good app and I don’t see why the rating for it is low. It shows me everything I want and need to see for my current location and other locations as well. I recommend this app for people that want to stay safe when traveling and don’t want to be one of those people that have no clue what the wether is.
Just like WI weather
I’ve used this app a long time. It’s been great for seeing the radar both past and present but with the increase of ads, the app crashing, or just plain being wrong a fairly good amount of time it’s become just like Wisconsin weather, bipolar and unpredictable. Do yourself a favor and find any other local weather app and stay away from this one
So many ads
I have been using the app for many years and have enjoyed it. I have reached my limit with the ads. Open, watch an ad. Click in the radar, watch an ad. It is too much. I am sick of it. I spend 50% of my time watching ads. Life is too short for me to fund your app with my eyeballs.
Lots of advertising for this sort of thing Advertising...
Other than the constant advertising I think it’s pretty good. Best local app of its kind I’ve found anyway...
Used to be good
I’ve used this app for a long time and it was always good. Now it’s constant ads that don’t pertain to the area or the weather. Finally deleted and downloaded a different one. I like it much better already!
Update
Needs an update for iOS 17 support so the app doesn’t freeze and the ad thanks
Great Weather App-before the ads
The weather alerts and the app were great until the ads started to appear. Give an option for removing ads and I'll likely be back, but for now it's deleted.
Ads with video and sound - thumbs down
The app just added ads with video and sound you have to sit through to access weather information. No thanks. Finding a new app.
I know it's weather but...
...you'd think 30 minutes from now wouldn't be all that hard. Not sure where the app gets it's data but it's not very good. Looked at the predicted radar and it showed no rain for hours. 30 minutes later it's pouring.
Fix me!
I just updated recently and every time I open the app it pops up a message about Bluetooth which I have no interest in doing. Both the help menu item and the Feedback menu items are not functional. I guess I still appreciate the weather information, but the pop-up is quite annoying.
Ads are annoying
There’s no reason for an auto video ad that starts every time. This app is annoying, if you x out for a split second it starts over. It’s a weather app, stop the ads.
Was Good
I’ve used this app for years. Was Good up until recently. Now I get notifications for area 25-30 miles away. And that’s not what I need. I need immediate area that my family lives in. Not “Lightning detected 28.6 miles away”
App hangs every time
App shows splash screen, starts an auto ad, that’s it, nothing else. It freezes. Totally useless app. Got updated version without the Honda splash ad - it worked. The Honda ad returned yesterday, and guess what it no longer works. Glad to see the WKOW app is more interested in showing an ad than having a working app. As I said, totally useless app.
Ads pop up randomly
After all the years using the app I’m finally sick of it. Pros: good forecast, detailed map Cons: LONG start, must view their splash for a couple seconds THEN a GHC ad for a few more seconds EVERY TIME IT STARTS. I got used to it but it’s still very annoying. Now, ads pop up randomly without tapping any ad on the screen, with sound (usually loud).
Screen freeze
App won’t open on my iPad. It freezes on the Honda add. What happened? I used to use this app several times a day. What a BUMMER!
27 Weather App
This app has a nice MAP which is great for viewing and clarifying weather status HOWEVER, it is REALLY BAD..with commercials. No options to subscribe in order to avoid commercials. Very disappointing. Will drop this App in favor of 15 Weather Authority App, which is without commercials and much better because of that...also still free....
Used to be my go to app for weather
This used to be a really good app. The forecasts were accurate and the interface was easy to use. Now it won’t run on my iPad Pro (if freezes on the GHC ad that comes up, although it still works on my iPhone) and it embarrasses me when I’m in public when it never used to. I often check the weather when I’m out, in a restaurant, with friends, whatever. What used to be a silent app now BLARES an advertisement when you least expect it. Having dinner in a restaurant, or sitting in a waiting room for a dental appointment one hardly wants to start BLARING an advertisement for something from their iPhone. I never know what the advertisement is for because I quickly exit the app in order to silence it. This is horrible and I will no longer be using what was once was a great app. The least you could have done was give users a chance to buy the app for $5 or $10 bucks (or charge a minimum monthly fee like 50 cents) in order not to have ads. Or give them a heads up you will be having loud ads on your app when the uses least expects them. I’ll probably change my 6:00 pm viewing to a different channel than 27 as well. Fool me once…
This update
Can't change the orientation for iPad? Not user friendly. Prefer old version because of this. App crashes on initial open. Have to reopen. This is a pain!!!! Why does app keep crashing? Fix the thing or it’s gone!!! And don’t send weather info via voice unless there’s a warning of bad weather!!! I can see the weather is good without an interruption!!!! Work on this!!!!
