About this app

The power of Queen City News’s PinPoint Weather team is in the palm of your hand with the completely overhauled PinPoint Weather App. It’s never been easier to ditch the default weather app!
• Get current forecasts at a glance, with fully integrated GPS to pinpoint weather conditions wherever you are.
• The interactive radar map allows you to track rain and storms in real time, and lets you zoom all the way down to your exact location (within a few hundred feet!).
• Daily and hourly forecasts to help you plan around the weather and reign over your day.
• Video forecasts from Chief Meteorologist Tara Lane and the PinPoint Weather Team for those times when it helps to have a bit more context from trusted experts.
• Stream severe weather coverage live right in the app to help you protect what matters most.
• Customize your notifications to only be alerted to the advisories, watches, and warnings for your preferred location(s).
• Share your weather photos and videos to help tell the full weather story (and potentially see them on Queen City News!)

Ratings and reviews

the previous version was almost perfect! I found it very reliable. I never watched the forecast video, so the fact that it was the Labor Day forecast for about 5 months was a non issue. This new version (3/25) is cumbersome at best. It looks cheap and rudimentary. it doesn't get my location (city) right even though the dot on the map is accurate. I uninstalled the app and 3x today the play store app has popped up trying to inspire me to install it.

I liked the previous version a lot. new version (3/2025) is much less intuitive. While the needed info is there, getting to it is a lot more of a pain. Another case where "different does not equal better". Used the previous version constantly..... will now be looking for a replacement to this "updated" version.

I went to this as my go-to weather app It was amazing especially the radar forecast were always accurate more so than any other app I had. With this update March 2025, you blew it, difficult to get around in and very slow to load. I will have to keep looking for another app I wish you would change it back
