Ratings and reviews

2025 December 31 First Alert 6 Weather App has been "improved" so poorly that I have to reduce my rating from 5 stars to 3 stars. . The map feature gone from easy to use to messy, cluttered & worse to use. . I am convinced that phone design engineers take "idiot pills".

Unfortunately, this app is not very user friendly. It takes a long time to load and when it does you get an ad that you have to close before using the ap. There are so many ads. Most apps provide additional news after reading a news story. This app has ads that seem to go on forever. It is disappointing as I enjoy WOWT news coverage. I'll stick to getting my news from them on the TV. For now KETV has a superior app.

Constantly crashes and has errors. I can almost never access the weather or radar without my phone reporting an error with it. When it does open it always is weather from previous days. Which happens with the news as well. Tl;Dr weather doesn't work, news sometimes works. Crashes all the time.
