Weather Radio by WDT App Reviews

Continuously crashes even after reinstalling. Its a fantastic app before it updated.

This app keeps me safe.

The app works great. Its saved me a ton of trouble during severe WX days and even caught me off guard a few times. Im thankful for such a great app.

A good app to use. However, support does not exist if there is an issue with the app.

If weather conditions are important and pertinent to you, this app should be considered.

I enjoy watching storms. Thank you for helping me stay safe with audio and visual alert notifications.

No longer alerts when watch warning issued

Great app with great support!!

This is NOT a NOAA weather radio equivalence. It seems to work okay, but it is no different than the FREE Weather Channel app...if you dont mind the ads. Very disappointed.

Doesnt do anything that the free apps wont do. Even though Ive saved several locations it still tells me that I need to save my first location. Deleted and reinstalled same problem. Not worth the steep price of $5.

Alerts are instantaneous and right on track. The one problem that keeps us from being a five-star app is the alerts do not read the details. For instance if there is a severe thunderstorm warning, you will not hear any details about that when you double-click the alert notification. Unlike most other applications this one alerts you only for your immediate area not a whole county. This means the prevalence of false alerts are virtually eliminated. Voice over support for blind users has been dramatically improved. The only recommendation remaining would be to make the alerts a little louder. Alerts can sometimes be overlooked when you were in a busy setting.

I purchased this app after reading a recommendation on a weather blog. I have not as yet used during a severe weather event. Set up is frustrating as the "+" sign is not always present. Also if you are trying to enter a location in a large metropolitan area it is not address or even area specific. Theoretically you should be able to manually relocate the pin. I could do so after numerous attempts on one desired location but not on another which was located in a large city. The pin is firmly planted in the center of the city but the desired area is miles away. Weather events could be drastically different. The support desk is responsive but the first response was directions on how to move a pin. "Place fingertip over pin, press and drag." Duh.

I bought this after seeing it recommended on a weather blog. Severe weather hit last night. I also have weather channel app. So, I was getting alerts from both at same time. But, this app must have had me in wrong time zone. I am about 70 minutes from the next zone. But, with the gps I have never gotten an inaccurate report from Weather channel.

As a truck driver, this is my "go to" weather app. Ive been using it for several years now. Its ease of use with an uncluttered interface makes it extremely user friendly. Best of all there are no stupid photo sharing or Facebook options like other weather apps that are way to busy with unneeded information and menu options.

ALERTS DONT WORK - which is the main reason for using this app. Its also horribly designed. I want a quick forecast by day with just a quick tap. I shouldnt have to hunt and search for everything I need. Its insanity! The nonstop attempt to sell me lightning strike info when you cant even put a forecast up is an outrage. Even if the app were free that would be ridiculous, but it isnt free. Many years ago this app was great. Its a joke now. REVAMP IT!

I have yet to receive an audible alert. Only have one location stored. Not worth having if it wont alert me. #whatsthepiint

This app is wonderful, however, I dont like the voice Samantha that is being used. Can you guys have a run off the built-in voices that you have with voiceover? Im not a big fan of Samantha, and I dont think anybody else is either. Love the lightning detection, it is really useful.

The app seemed to work perfectly the past two years, but just got an iPhone 6 and upgraded to the 9.3 IOS. The weather app kicks out and closes every time I try to load it.

Maybe this has been fixed. Regardless, it took too long sounded unprofessional so I switched to Storm Shield. I have multiple locations saved, often each area comes under an alert at the same time. So, I will receive 2-4 notifications at one time. Which is great, but when two or more alerts are pushed they play at the same time and slightly of of sync. You get this annoying echo effect, sounds unprofessional. These are alerts that are the exact same thing for each location.

This app has never failed to alert me in a timely manner. Works great with its location tracking and will immediately alert me if I drive into a warned area which is critical. Great job!
