Desubu's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 9/3/19 1:30 PMEdit: Haven't looked at this review in a long while so hadn't seen the developer response that "it isn't the intent of WRAL to 'force' anyone to go online to do anything". Sad to say, that part has only gotten worse. The detailed video is what I'm talking about and now you can only get a brief video without going to the Live News and Weather and wait for the ads to play. In a severe weather event the app and WRAL seem to have improved the availability, otherwise I'm likely to miss the video weather - but I can always find it at ABC 11, so I'm good. (End of updated review, May 2019) WRAL weather reporting is good because of the expertise of the the weather staff. This new app is disappointing because it's clear that it intentionally forces users to go to WRAL online to get in depth reporting, especially video reporting (join us at WRAL online for the details'). When you go to WRAL online you get 10 minutes of ads before you can see any report, weather or anything. That's really bad in a severe weather event. I know you have to pay for things, but it's so much that busy people will walk away. Isn't that what a mobile weather app is all about? Busy people turning to a quick look at the weather? Too bad I too often have to miss the details and go to another source for them.

Then, put a nice Home icon (and call it Home, not Now) on every screen. That gives us two tap access to every screen. Next, This is a weather app, not art class. Don't put thin blue fonts on on a cloudy blue background (for rain, I guess.) Legible contrast and larger fonts don't cost any more. Thanks in advance.

So let it load up before clicking all over the app. Can’t complain though. I was impatient. 😉 There are a LOT of ads. They repeat with every click. If I HAVE to watch ads I’d like them to be tailored to something I’m interested in.

DebAnn1018's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 4/16/18 5:31 PMI don’t know how long the new version of the WRAL Weather App has been out, but it updated on my phone late last week. At this point, I’m not favorably impressed. Before on iControl radar, I could see all of my locations pinpointed. Now I see only my current location. I could live with that, but yesterday when I clicked on it, it would either show no precipitation (it was raining at the time), it would not “play” at all, or the precipitation was coming from east of me (it truly wasn’t). Last night during non-stop severe storm alerts I resorted to going to the menu and pulling up Doppler 5000 to see what was coming. Also, the Weather Feed is now on the open screen but to enlarge it to be able to read the graphics, you must go back to the menu and open Weather Feed. From there you can enlarge. Giving 3 stars only because I have confidence that WRAL will improve this product to the point it deserves having the WRAL name on it.

iOS 7 fail's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 4/16/18 3:30 AMNot only did the update delete all of my preset locations it also deleted many of the settings. You can no longer see where there is lightning within a storm system and you can no longer see little icons of each of your presets in relationship to each other and the storm. You also can’t control the transparency of the storm system in the iControl feature making it hard to determine where these major storm bands really are! Also, forget about zooming/moving the iControl screen around because it will get stuck in buffer mode and you won’t be able to bring it back without restarting the app. I have always loved this app and it is typically far superior in terms of information compared to any others but this update is disappointing. Edit: I did find a way to adjust the opacity but it doesn’t let you slide the icon and clicking the little dots caused it to freeze. Also, I am unimpressed as I have been reading through other similar complaints that everyone for the last 2 years has received the same response to their concerns.

Dash Master 2000's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 4/15/18 11:43 AMWay too many ads popping up. I like the detailed information and it tends to be more accurate than Apple Weather. When you watch WRAL in the morning on TV you can expect commercials about every 5 minutes. This is worse.

surfman47's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 4/15/18 10:33 PMI really enjoyed and used the previous WRAL Weather Alert app and was excited that it was being updated to a larger app with more features...what a disappointment!!! More is definitely not better and even more disappointed that even the portions that I used daily don’t work as well as what I used on the old app. An example is the icontrol radar. It takes forever to load, the time frame is smaller and if you move to another state, you start the process all over again. That being said, I’ve downloaded AccuWeather and The Weather Channel both of these work better than WRAL’s. Sorry to say if that’s the best you can do, I’m out of here.

Daughter47's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 4/14/18 9:33 PMI like the old app better for the Doppler 5000. You basically could look at anywhere in the world at the touch of a finger. You didn’t have to worry about the plus or minus crap. You could zoom in very precisely in literally a split second to keep up with the weather anywhere at any time! So far I like the details of the rest of it but I’m still trying to figure it out.
GAINfaycrew's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 4/14/18 4:50 PMThis new version of the app is awful. It is not user friendly, the radar is confusing and my locations will not save. Offering more features does not make this app more user friendly. I didn’t need more features - I just need the weather and an app that is easy to manage and navigate through. Thanks, but no thanks.

Reviewed on 4/14/18 11:13 PMThe new weather app is in my opinion is lousy. In the seven day forecast there’s a ton of adds which I find distasteful. It’s all about the money unfortunately. Get rid of the adds. The current conditions of the app are a great improvement.

The Hawaiian Avenger's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 12/16/18 12:50 PMWhy does location services have to be always on to use the alert feature? The app lets you set alerts for specific cities so it shouldn’t need to know where I am to give an alert for that city. I love the app though

tk517's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 12/16/18 12:50 PMWould like the 7 day view that is shown on every TV forecast so you can see the whole week on one screen without scrolling. Found lake levels under “Around the State” but only lake Gaston works, others are N/A. iControl is much slower since the app was revamped and there is no refresh. It’s so slow that about 25% of the time it doesn’t even work Tested on a new iPhone 7 and a 5. Got 9 Flash Flood Warnings on 5/21. 4 were between 4:25 and 4:55. Hopefully that’s a bug (only need 1). Had to turn feature off but used it in the old app. Btw: with 9 warnings the rain missed us anyway in west Cary, had about 1/4”. Dropping another star unless it improves.

swamifox5's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 12/14/18 8:01 AMStill my go-to, but was compelled to review to let you know that, with the old app, I rated a 10. The new app gets a THREE...not for design or usefulness, but because there are TOO, TOO MANY ADs! It’s so frustrating that I’ve actually downloaded the Weather Channel app. Those ads are going to cause me to delete this app one day. I hope that you can put the viewers and fans first, being perhaps the only company that does so.

Reviewed on 12/14/18 8:01 AMUsed this app during Florence. This was such a good decision to get.

Until then, thank you to all the developers from me and my family.
Darren Lambert's Review of Wral Weather
Reviewed on 12/14/18 8:01 AMThis app used to be clean and useable. Now you cannot enter a closing from the app. Why would you remove that function? Your mobile website has the amazon winner hack on it as well. I had to pull out my laptop to enter a closing! Even then I could not find the closings without doing a search. What are you doing?! We are having to rethink which news station we are going to use to communicate with our people about closings.
