Great app but 10 day forecasts look depressing!. Listen, I know it's Cleveland and not Hawaii, but can you please make the 10 day look a little less depressing? For example, if there is "a chance of morning thunderstorms," why not put a thunderbolt and a sun instead of just the ominous thunderbolt? I appreciate a realistic forecast but a little bit of optimism/hope never hurt anyone!

Seems faster, but new generic icon?. The loading time seems improved with the latest update, but a generic number 3 in a circle is an odd icon. The old icon was clearly identifiable with the local channel 3’s branding and the word “weather.”

My Go-To Weather App. This has been my go-to weather app for years, and I have recommended it to many others. Thanks for an app that shows the weather without having ads placed over top and dividing the screen. I have to say though, I do miss the 4 seasons graphic that used to show when the app was opened. ☹️

Needs more development.. It's time for an upgrade for this app. -Needs to adapt to iPhone 5 screens. -Lake Erie is an important part of Cleveland weather especially to boaters. There needs to be lake temperature info at the very least. -All features should be available in both portrait and landscape mode. -There needs to be more weather information available. Where is the barometric pressure information, school /business closings crawl, the NBC chime when I activate the app or perhaps get an alert? -All and all this app is useful, but lacks new and improved innovative features. It has a lack of eye appeal after having this app for a year now. Really needs a clean and attractive new look. The radar is an awesome feature! Why clutter it up? I want pop-up menus and features that can be swiped in and out of view and an awesome automated forecast feature that plays the weather forecast out just like you were watching the news but without the reporter. The Channel 3 News music in the background would be a nice touch too. Lets get to work Channel 3! Make this happen and I'll start watching the news again.

Why such a low rating!?. Granted, I’ve only had this app for a short time but I don’t understand the low ratings. So far, I really like it! At the very first screen it gives me all of the info that I want to know. Wind speed, temp, live radar etc.. Most weather apps make you scroll through different screens to get all of that info. If you want to look at your current weather more in depth, that is also available. Ignore the bad stars and give this one a try!

Lines on storm tracks now too thin. I do not like the latest update to this app, the lines on the storm tracks are now so thin, they blend in with other things on the map. I have to blow up the area of the storm so much, I can’t get a good summary of what is headed where. What was wrong with the old storm track overlay? Nothing! Recode this.

Reliability. I’ve been using this app for years. I also used to watch the morning video of the weather daily. But now, the videos are no longer daily and one can see that they are an after though from someone. Why have videos if you are not going to update them morning and evening like in the old days? Very disappointing that in the era of instant news, this app has fallen behind.

Location switching. Love the app and I have many weather apps. Best and most up to date radar around. Recently it keeps switching my location to Cleveland from my saved location. I deleted Cleveland and it keeps switching back to it every time I close and open it again. Please fix. Thanks.

Review.. “A 5 star review”

WKYC weather app. Great go to app. Since iOS 16, doesn’t open first tap on iPad Pro. Close and then opens on second try. Annoying. Otherwise would rate 5.

My “ go to “ weather source. I utilize the radar not only for the local area but nationwide also

Was a great app!. I loved this app previously but in the last few days it keeps getting stuck at the opening screen. ThennI need to close phone down. Reinstalling so we will see. This app has been super reliable for years. I was one of the first to download it. But lately not so great. Also the icon is just stupid. While it’s the new logo I hate it. I don’t even watch Channel 3 much since the revamp and now watch Channel 5. The new format for the news is just toooo........ reminds me of the gimmicky Channel 19 news. Someone sold you guys down the river. UPDATE: Two weeks later and after reinstall it’s still crashing. So sad as this was my fav app. Now I am installing another stations app.

Quick Response. This app is the best weather app. Quick loading and lots of data. I use it every day.

Good Weather app. If an MLB team is the WKYC Weather app, then it is worth it, however, it would be very helpful to be able to set CLE Airport.

Many advantages. This app is convenient and easy to use. On my deviceThis app is convenient and easy to use it loads rather slowly This app

Accurate and full-featured. After searching for a decent weather app from all of the big-name national sources (and coming up empty), here comes the only one worth having. The only potential downside would be to a frequent traveler who likes to store a list of locations and have them at the ready. But for 99% of us, this one is right on point. Great job, WKYC!

WKYC continues it’s downward spiral. I’m not sure who they’re trying to appeal to, but it’s certainly not the segment of viewers who want, and need, the news and weather that are delivered professionally without focusing on their TV “personalties”. It is substandard by every measure. Take a hard look at other markets in other cities and glean the professionalism there. Please, you owe it to the Cleveland Viewers. As for you App performance, it doesn’t perfom well at all, and hadn't for years! Fire your developer and get it on track. You needn’t look too far to find a Cleveland weather app that works well.

Figured out why it locks up. I have had the same problems listed by others - the app locks up upon opening and won’t load. I recently installed an ad blocker and tried suspending it, which allowed the app to work normally. Problem solved.

Good app. Usually great app. Only complaint is when the BLOG doesn’t work. I enjoy it for short news blurbs.

Most accurate weather app!!. My only complaint is the future view on the radar used to be better. Now the view in the future is different than the present. The radar in the past/present is very accurate but the future view is not and is hard to interpret. I would prefer both radars look the same.

Improvements. Like it, but it could be much better. *Please add the wind direction feature on the map as continued moving arrows. This is important in Lake Effect snow events. *Please add dark color map style. *Lightning feature is useless most of the time.

Weather Warnings. Very helpful. Great warning alerts. Have been very helpful when we were out of town on vacation.

Old bug still there. When the app is open, about half the time it opens only at the top half of the screen. This is on an iPad Pro with iOS 15.7. This has been happening for years. Am I the only one who sees this?

Awful. The radar isn’t even close to accurate. I’d give it 0 stars if it was possible

Stopped working. Was working great. Now all I get it a radar screen and network errors.

Do not like new map. Pls use old map

Better than Weather Channel app. After using the Weather Channel's app for the last couple of years, I switched to the WKYC app largely for the localized weather reporting. The weather map is generally up to date unlike the sometimes hour-long gap on TWC. The best benefit is that the national radar map is available and is just as well updated. That means I can use it while I'm traveling as on a road trip planning for bad weather is crucial. Interface is good. Could use a radar + clouds (together) option like on TWC. Videos are up to date. So far, works great on iOS5 on iPhone 4.

Undo the update. I used to absolutely love this app, until the last update. Now it’s terrible! The graphics are awful. It crashes. The forecasts are off. Please undo the update!

No longer works. Quit working after the last update.

Bring back old app. My favorite app, WKYC weather, doesn’t work any more. I loved it when traveling and while at home. Tried to reinstall and read reviews that an upgrade has wiped out the effectiveness of this app. I can’t turn it on any more. Do I have to go to another Cleveland channel’s app? Please restore old app! A WKYC regular

New up date ie awful. Not liking the new update Why do apps change and the future out look yuck

Weather. Works great

Good but needs bug fixes. I like this app pretty well but it needs bug fixing because it keeps freezing and it takes a little bit of time to load

App crashed. Updated on May 3rd... Splash screen goes to closed. Tab is open underneath but bringing it up goes back to the splash screen to closed...lather rinse repeat.

Great new map experience. Great new map experience. A black screen with a dot and no map whatsoever. I’ve used the app for years, I guess we’re done and install one from another local station. iPhone X ios12

Update. Your recent update ruined your app. All I wanted was a simple weather forecast and now it is so complicated.

Color codes provide very little info. Does a regular person test your updates? How can one possibly see rain or snow tracks through the purple or red areas of the weather advisories ? Blue is the color for snow. You programmed lavender to represent the advisory area. I cannot see the progression of snow in blue through the lavender area. I cannot believe this is the first time someone has brought this to your attention. If no one has, you cannot state that “we haven’t heard of this problem before”

Radar difficulty. Love everything EXCEPT the radar transition from present to future which is always inaccurate. For example, the major storm that DID go through the Cleveland area today (Nov 15th) about 5pm was shown roaring thru Toledo / Sandusky... but disappearing completely before hitting the Akron area.

Much Wow, Such Great. Rain snow and oh hail no. It’s a nice radar map

Who designed the icon?. I updated the apps on my phone, and thought the WKYC weather app was removed. The new icon doesn’t make sense. A big 3 in a circle? How is that relatable to weather? I use the app on all of my devices and like it. I like the ability to change the layers and radar.

App crashes on startup. Update: As a last resort, tried deleting and reinstalling the app. This finally allowed the app to run without crashing, but I lost all of my saved locations in the process. Cleaner look with better control over map appearance and overlays is nice improvement. —- Same issue as reported weeks ago by others. Splash screen displays then app disappears. (Wish I read the reviews before updating). App appears to be still running in background, but if I try to foreground it, it displays the splash screen for a few seconds and disappears again. Why is this fatal error not fixed yet?

Review. Was a great weather app and could also get news headlines in the blog, but the blog no longer works.

Same. This is my favorite weather app too, getting stuck on home screen. Hope your fixing it, I’m lost without it!!!

WKYC.. Upgraded and now the app will never open It was my go to for weather but need to find something else now because it never works.

Dislike. For years I used this app. Now the map is awful. There aren’t any indicators on the map. No street names or cities. Time to move on.

Great. Great to have local info.

Need old app. Cannot track storms with such a dark map background.

Radar. Radar is delayed 15 min

You need to do something to fix it.. Keeps crashing. During the last storm the radar showed nothing even though Betsy was telling us a sever storm was coming. The future radar bar freezes all the time. Very disappointing.

Best Weather App. Can see anywhere in USA, and since I’m a traveler, I love it.

Great app!. This is the first weather app I open when I want to see Doppler. Great app...highly recommended!!!

It's ok. The radar video is great. That's the only redeeming quality. The forecast and hourly forecast is rarely updated. You really only notice when the weather takes a turn from the expected. It keeps displaying the original forecast, which is useless.

iOS 5 map overlays. This is the BEST weather app out there. The videos are updated throughout the day. The map is so good you can watch the weather approach. Five Stars!

IOS 5 alerts. Love this app til I got iPhone 4s. The app does not give u alerts of bad weather. That was the point of getting the app. Please fix and I'll give 5 stars.

Great app. I use this app almost every day.

Great app!. Pleasantly surprised. Very useful, well done app. My go to app for weather from now on.

Good App. Can you update Betsy Klings hairstyle on this app? When the app opens her picture shows her having long hair. She currently has a shorter style as seen on tv. The rest of the app is great.

It has EVERYTHING!!. I love it! Everything works and it doesn't crash. Theres many things u can do with it! And u should get it!!!!

Awesome. Radar and storm track are each outstanding I love seeing where the storms are and when they will be in Parma. The clincher though is being able to see the great pic of Betsy(before the haircut) when starting the app

My favorite weather app!. Works great. I like using the radar in landscape view.

What a let down.... This app used to be my absolute favorite. It was simple and easy to follow. The 10 day forecast was my favorite. The update totally ruined this app for me. It is now difficult to read and has many technical glitches. My home location is always wrong, along with other technical mistakes. This used to be an app I would recommend to everyone, and now I'm sad to say it will never get my approval. Please bring back the old app!! This new update is absolutely terrible. Not even worth a one star rating.

Best app I've seen. I love this app the radar is great. And the setup is perfect you can put all kinds of layers on the map and you have 10 day and hourly right at your fingertips. The severe weather alerts are nice but it seems like every storm is considered severe by WKYC. There hardly any ad presence blocking you from getting important weather info. Love this app.

Okay. The forecast is often very different on the app versus what is predicted on TV (for example, daytime high temperatures are almost always lower on the app compared to the TV forecast).

Great!. It tells me the info I need. It's a great app if you need to be alert! Five *****

What did you do?. Nothing works on this update! I especially like when you press the play button, all the rain disappears. Please just go back to previous version. It's useless right now.

Crashing big time!!. Every time you click on future, it crashes! This app gets worse with every update. When it first came out, it was the best! Not so much anymore. What happened?

Perfect for NE Ohio Weather Checks. Love this app, and not just because of the opening smiles. Best way to see current radar and upcoming weather hours and days. Great job!

Used to work, now doesn't. I'll give credit where credit is due. For the most part I got the information I needed off of the app and it had a fairly good radar. The last update screwed it up. It now crashes every time I open it. Now I have to find something else and remove it from my phone

Better weather app. For all of us that complained about the overbearing city labels that they added to this app and would not change. Try MyRadar app. It is as good as wkyc weather app and better.

So Disappointed....... Latest update completely ruined what made this weather app unique. I used to love the simplicity of the way it used to be. Previous bold fonts are now so faint they are hardly distinguishable. When you click on a day to look at specific weather, the wrong day appears....really? And even then, the actual forecast gets cut off at the bottom and is incomplete. Used to LOVE the 10 day forecast. Quick and easy to read. Not at all, with this new update. Time to search for a new weather app. I am sad to see this one go.

Crashes before opening. I LOVED this app before the update. It was the only way that I got the weather. Since the update the the app crashes all the time!

What Happened???. App used to be great but since last update frequently getting a can't connect to network message, when it does work large blank spots in storm patterns. Please go back to the way it was until you get this app working again.

Can we please get the old version better. Liked the old version much better. Click on a day and it opens the next days forecast. The previous 10 day format was much easier to see. Wish I did not have auto updates this app.

Help full😃. This app is really handy because all the tornado warnings 😫 but love this app

One star--too many. Someone should have their fingers taped to their bodies after what they did as an update to a perfectly working app. Not only is the Google map gone but nothing works like it should. I have an IPad and specifically uploaded this app because it used to be so good. Deleting right after I finish this. No use using up precious space for a piece of junk.

Awesome!. Just watched the show and downloaded it! Works flawless!!!!

Great app!. I recently used the WeatherChannel app but from now on I am going to use the WKYC weather app since I can locate my location!

Deleted. Overtakes iPhone. Gives good weather, but poorly coded app overtakes Music and Podcasts sound. Once fixed will reinstall.

Forecast not in Sync with their own forecast. This is a generic app that other stations use. The 10 day forecast never matches the one that WKYC weather staff has on TV. If at least the forecast was in sync then this would be nice app. But until then the only thong that WKYC does to this is use their brand. Very disappointed. If your are going to have an app make it your own app.

Fix It Please!. My son has the previous version & says its the best so I tried to download onto my IPhone 4 & it won't even download all the way. You've had nothing but terrible reviews since 12/12 & still not fixed in Feb? I guess you must not care. Ill try another stations app

Seems to be worse than last. Little diamond w a number in it next to "home".....is this an alert? If so it won't open which is really nice since I'm experiencing not so great weather at the moment.

Really nice app!. App has everything you need to know and it shows a lot of cities. Has wind speed, rain forecasts, all of the things I need to know for outdoor road bicycling tours!

Fantastic. Wow, what a fantastic app! Wkyc has made a great app that lets me move the map around just like Google Maps and gives a great radar as well.

App icon is blurry. The app icon has been blurry since I first downloaded the app well over a year ago. Am I the only one that sees this? Looks like a junior high school project gone bad!

Review. Excellent app. Radar and detailed weather. Nice to see the actual news forecast as well.

Booooo!. This needs updated! Crashes all the time. Go back to the old one! I don't care about past weather?!! I want to see live weather like the old one did

10 day forecast never updated!. What good is a weather app if the 10 day forecast never updates?

Bad update. This is so disappointing. This update seems like a giant step backwards. The fonts are not as clear or bold as the past version. I wish they would have left their older app alone it was the best.

I love it but. I love it but the videos keep stoping in the middle of it

Constant reinstall. Please fix ever since apple 8.4 update app keeps crashing. Need to reinstall almost every day

Excellent!. This app loads the radar images quickly and is very easy to use. The storm track is a cool feature.

Updated radar!. Unlike the weather channel app, this app keeps the radar up to date!

Latest update causes it to crash before it fully loads. Latest update causes it to crash before it fully loads. I wish they would give the option of restoring to the previous version. iPhone 5.

New update. Terrible update. Can no longer change between cities by arrows, key by default is on and has to be turned off each time, what is future and past anyway and crashes all the time. The app was excellent before this update and now is nonfunctional.

Worst update ever. Went from being my "go to" weather app to not using at all. Gives incorrect current location. No such place as where they place me. Small numbers next to HOME. What are they? Alerts? Who know. No explanation, no response from touching it. Sad to lose my WKYC weather app. It WAS my favorite.

Super!. Has what it needs and works very well no problems to mention, that means a lot to me. Thanks chan 3

Really Good App!. Easy to use, simple to navigate. Opens right to the radar with a three day forecast along the bottom. I love this app. ( much better than the other local weather apps. )

Bad Update. New graphics/interface are very difficult to see and not clear. This went from being easy and quick to use to awful. WHAT HAPPENED?!

Fix this app. I had this app and loved it. Now it won't load at all since updating my iPhone to the new os. I had to delete the app because it is totally useless. Fix this and I will try it again if I don't find something in the mean time.

Ouch!. The previous app was great. Why did you screw it up? Signed! "looking for a replacement"
