WBRC First Alert Weather for Negative User Reviews

✓ Too many ads!Love getting up-to-the-hour weather reports, but if I see that couple stand on their windows one more time you’ll hear me scream! It’s especially annoying to have to watch a commercial when you’re trying to see whether there’s a tornado headed your way. Have noticed last couple of times I’ve had option to skip ads, but option wasn’t there during all those storms last week. I’d rather pay a subscription fee than watch ads!.Ehm47Version: 5.2.302

✓ Local weather add machineThis app for one is way too busy for two slow to navigate but third and worst off filled with so many ads. The app is literally unusable. You wait through one or two ads just to click on what you want then a few seconds of Weather than another ad to navigate to another section it’s just ridiculous, it makes it way faster to look up the less accurate national weather, which is a shame when the station pay so much for local radar that makes it accessible for 100 window world ads.925slaveVersion: 5.12.705

✓ Unnecessary ads along with a radar that's consistently WRONG.Maybe I should read this radar like I'm dyslexic because when it shows rain, it doesn't rain and when it shows no rain, the sky falls. I can not depend on this app nor radar. Also, I shouldn’t have to watch an ad — let alone a one minute ad — about someone’s roofing company when there’s a severe thunderstorm or tornado warning ongoing. On top of that, when I exit the app, I shouldn’t have to completely reload the app; what happened to caching?.Thundor K.Version: 5.0.400

✓ The app is so glitchy!!!!It won’t cast or airplay without causing me a headache! The app can’t be downloaded to my Vizio smart tv!!!! I want my News! Please fix the slow viewing! Fix the app so it can be played on Vizio smart tv’s!!!! The app will barely play on my phone. Fix it to where I can see the news without trying to watch on my phone or cast or airplay and I’ll give 5 ⭐️’s!!!.SirbinaVersion: 5.7.301

✓ Ads make this BADI feel sorry for the meteorologists. The ads ruin the whole thing. Would you watch a ridiculous old car lot as when you’re worried about the weather? Long ads too! And, if you rewind you have to watch it again. You developers must not care. I see all the similar bad reviews and you haven’t changed a thing. Boo! 👎.TarawhitemrsVersion: 5.0.1004

✓ Finicky compared to other weather apps-weather on radar fails to load sometimes -weather warnings always come late compared to Weather Bug or My Radar -if you want to watch weather updates you have to sit through multiple unskipable window world ads -when the radar does load, it takes forever -ads are in between needed information, such as live radar, hour by hour, and ten day forecast..Vivid_OwlVersion: 5.10.500

✓ Useless voice alertsWhy did Wes’ voice come on to tell me it stopped raining? I can tell that by looking out the window! There needs to be a way to turn him off and keep weather alert tones on. Deleting the app until that’s fix (or easier to fix in settings because I can’t figure it out).Pandabear62Version: 5.7.301

✓ Always inaccurateEvery time a major storm is coming in I will look at the radar every 5 minutes and they will have the storm front moving northeast and have you thinking that the bad stuff will miss your home but every single time it always shifts last second and hits can’t who ever runs this app be more accurate than this.Greenknight92792Version: 5.7.112

✓ Watch Live Doesn’t WorkEverything on the app is great but you can’t watch live anymore. It hasn’t worked in weeks. I have an iPhone 11 and since the latest updates, I can’t watch live. I’ve had to switch to another station’s live coverage..135753269976Version: 5.7.301

✓ My opinion of the weather reports received to my phone.I have become disappointed in the overall weather reports. The adds that dominate my phone louder than the weather volume and the wait time for the actual verbal report and forecast is frustrating!.Yhe ScholarVersion: 5.5.400

✓ Ad, Ad, and more Ads....I used to love this app and have had it for several years. The only thing that irritates me the most is the constant advertisements! Even if the weather video is only 2 mins long, they have an advertisement pop up at the beginning and sometimes it’s longer than the actual weather video! We had a storm coming one day not too long ago and I was trying to keep up with the weather but every time I was trying to watch a weather update I’d have to wait a few mins for the ads to go away. I don’t know... it’s just frustrating to see one of the pointless ads pop up EVERY SINGLE TIME I try to watch an update. So I’m finally uninstalling it until they can remove so many of them. Every now and then I don’t mind... but every video is ridiculous..J_wgh2016Version: 4.7.904

✓ Way too many adsHate that they make you watch commercials every time you click on a forecast alert. Sometimes the ads are 45+seconds. This was not the case a few years ago when I first started using their app. I find myself more and more moving to the WVTM app which does not seem to deploy the same tactic for ads. Love WBRC newscast just not their weather app. Do better WBRC!.Ttkk111Version: 5.12.705

✓ Ads have taken over!This used to be my go-to weather app, but the ads are now ridiculous. They pop up and move around so you easily touch accidentally. It's bad enough to watch the full-screen ad at the beginning. Don't need the videos popping up either. Sad that I need to look for another app now. ☹️.NCTatsVersion: 4.5.1800

✓ Safety first.. no wait we have to watch this LOUD Commercial firstThis could be App but it forces you to listen to a long LOUD ad as the tornado is getting closer to your house. And it really is loud!!!! It can wake up sleeping family members. Really! As you are scrambling to turn down the volume the weather finally comes on and you miss the first part as you try to turn the volume back up. Ridiculous. I have it but rarely use it as there are quieter weather apps out there..Smithby2Version: 4.10.2100
