WSMV 4 FIRST ALERT Weather App Reviews

App doesn’t work properly. This app needs an update in the worst way. The daily forecast no longer loads, the hourly forecast no longer loads, even the feedback tab will not work. Which is why I’m writing a review. ATTENTION WSMV Channel 4... fix your weather app!!

Channel 4 weather. I like the channel for news alerts. I just don’t like all the commercials.

Terrible app. I love WSMV anchors. But this app is clunky, only displays the correct video half of the time and is extremely slow to load

I don’t have time for your “commercials”!!!. When I go on the app it’s because I’m looking for urgent/important/of imminent relevance information!!!! I DO NOT have time to listen to a COMMERCIAL!!!!!STOP IT!!!!

Great App. I really like this app. It is very up to date and informative. I miss the man’s voice that gives updates. Love Lisa, but I prefer the voice with the app.

To many ads. Filtered out ALL ads and they still show up app is trash

Should be ashamed. App is horrible!!!!! Went to App Support and what comes up?! A 404 page saying “page you are looking for cannot be found”. We were actually thinking about advertising with Channel 4, but never will now if this is how they operate.!!!!!!!

Says rain when isn’t. Like the app but its never correct on temp or weather . Time to find another app

Terrible non-working app. Never had so much trouble with an app before. I just deleted it. That was the second time I’ve installed it & it still doesn’t work correctly. Half the time it is stuck on the ad page. Or the radar is completely wrong. It’s raining outside & when I go to the app it shows no rain around us. We live in Franklin and it seems to give me the weather for Nashville. I’ve complained to Lisa Spencer about it and she just says to reinstall it. I love the channel 2 app! The radar on channel 2 app is great also! Don’t waste your time with this app.

Good App When It Works. Frequently when the app is opened it stays stuck on the ad page. I wrote to voice my frustration; and all I got was a response that said nothing can be done!

Local weather. It’s always better to get the weather LOCALLY. 👍👍👍

WSMV WEATHER TEAM. I agree with WSMV having the most accurate weather reporting team in this market. Dan Thomas and Lisa Spencer both seem very knowledgeable in their profession. Don’t get a warm fuzzy feeling about any of the others. BTW, in my opinion there is nothing wrong with Lisa’s hair. She’s a very attractive middle aged lady and should wear her hair any way she darn well pleases.

It keeps moving my location 1000 miles away!. I’ve been getting notifications of rain nearby when there are no signs of rain in the forecast for my location. That’s because this app continues to set my location as Andover, Massachusetts, which is nowhere near where I am. I’ve never been there & I’ve never purposely searched for it. I’ve deleted Andover from my locations in the app but it keeps appearing as my only saved location. Very frustrating! Can’t this be fixed?

Not iPad friendly. Not iPad friendly. Only displays in portrait. My iPad keyboard case doesn't function standing up on end. Please fix.

Not accurate. Lately every time I look at the app it is wrong. I now go to Twitter to get my weather from a different weather team.

Maybe I’m doing something wrong?. I wasn’t home when there was tornado threat in Cookeville. I opened First Alert and the video was 2 hours old. I didn’t help to know if there storm was near us or not.

Homesick for Nashville!. I’ve been living in Milwaukee for the last 10 months..I watch the WSMV weather and news app everyday ..Love it so much ..moving back to Nashville in 11 days thank u WSMV for getting me through homesick episodes..Don’t know what I would have done without it THANKS -Anthony O

Weather. It’s really nice having this alert.

Weather. I think Dan Thomas is not only the best weatherman, but also the dearest, nicest young man on Channel 4. Keep in mind that I have never met him. Lisa needs a new, shorter hairdo. She too old for long hair. Love Channel 4 and always watch it😘🌦☀️🌈

Weather. The most acc. Weather station !!!’

Too many videos. I like the radar videos as a supplement but a quick message about the conditions is preferable

WSMV4 Weather App. I’ve only been using the app for a couple days, but I’m suspiciously questioning if the “live radar” is actually there’s. When I look at where the radar is, it suspiciously looks like it’s close to the TBNA radar in Nolensville.

Didn’t work when it mattered most. Early Tuesday morning around 1 am March 3, 2020 tornados touched down near downtown Nashville and continued west for almost 50 + miles. Not. One. Notification. from this app! Thank God I heard the outside neighborhood sirens and ran to the bathroom for cover. Waste of time to give false sense of security with this app.

Best app. It is the best app u can ever have

Poor rain/ lightning alerts. I love WSMV weather but I keep getting rain/ lightning alerts when there is nothing on the radar and no clouds in the sky. Very frustrating!

Up to date weather information!. Really enjoy the accurate weather information! As soon as there’s any changes WSMV4 Weather alerts me! Thank you for the this app!

Needs work.. The page is way too busy- have to look around too much for what Want. Too many ads.

Commercials. To many Commercials you should watch an app without any

Great Radar, when it works. I’ve had to delete this app, it never works. It always says network error.

Update PLEASE. This app used to be great for anywhere I was. I cannot get the daily and hourly forecast to load. Please update this app!!

Radar. 4 out of 5 times I go to check radar it doesn’t work

Channel 4 weather app. Great App!

Goodbye Old Friend. Used to be my favorite weather app but no longer loads. Displays much longer range of hourly forecasts plus 10 day forecasts vs 7 days on most apps. But now all I get is a failed to connect message. Reviewed all settings, deleted and redownloaded but problem remains. RIP...

Radar no longer actually shows.... Radar!. Was a great app until the latest update. Now the radar display no longer actually showps radar! Pretty useless now.

First Alert weather. Whatever they did to change the WSMV weather did not work. It is much harder to find anything. Don’t like it.

The best!. Many thanks for excellent reporting and keeping us safe!!!!

Love it. Very helpful. Appreciate having this on the go

Way too many notifications!. Went to setting to receive notifications for severe weather and tornado warnings. Gives me notifications for basically everything.

App. WSMV channel 4 has the best weather app going. I love the live radar.

Help. I live in Westminster South Carolina I always keep getting alerts from the Tennessee Kentucky area. Wish it was easier to find a closer area to my location to reflect the weather in my area.

Best Weather App. I love my local weather App! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️

Review. We really need to read the weather alerts, not just video. Many times we are in a meeting or busy and cannot watch a video. If you can make that happen the app would be great. Thanks

App for IPhone. Finally after downloading this app compatible with my IPhone it works great

Warning 1hr late. Current storm warning issued by NOAA at 2:45 didn’t receive it in app or notification until 3:55 over an hr late. We had high winds, heavy lightning & heavy rain for at least 45 minutes. Only warning posted for our area was a heat warning. Glad I also have AccuWeather & The Weather Channel apps to help keep me safe.

Way better than Apple Weather!. This is a great app. Timely alerts and radar that is actually current.

Snowbird ads. Why are you showing snowbird ads in the spring? An A-1 weather station looks silly. Thanks for live radar and great staff. Retired horticulture man

So sad what weather report?. To many adds to try and get your report and when you get to the end of them the report is missing. 🥲😤.

Overlaid of notifications!. Every day it’s multiple notifications 90% of them is just prompting you to watch the newscast, has very little or almost nothing to do with some kind of weather alert. I have multiple times gotten notifications to watch the news this morning. It was 4:30 in the morning, it only said, watch the weather report this morning. It’s useless.

App is fine but…. I hate the notification sound. It’s a man’s voice letting you know that you have an alert. Well it freaks me out! It’s really scary when you’re home alone and hear softening suddenly hear a man’s voice. I really wish they would change that.

Stopped working. Have used this for a while but the map started dropping me in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Africa and wouldn’t move. So I reinstalled and it’s even worse and immediately crashes. Don’t bother.

Viewer. Thank you, Channel 4 - this is awesome! It will be so helpful to have this info at my fingertips. Appreciate it!!

Best app. It is the best app u can ever have

So far, so good.. Love this app so far. Great radar to see what's coming in the next hour. Only had it one day. Will update after several weeks and hopefully up it to 5 stars.

The Awesome Award *. Thanks for being the best

Ok, Needs Some Changes. I like this app, but I'd rather pay a few bucks to get it ad free. The ads are annoying and take up screen space. Also, the layout of the app looks a little jumbled. Seems like it could be visually more appealing and less haphazard.

Weather. Like the app but it won't stay on my location so I gotta fix it every i look kinda annoying

Neglected App. Crashes all the time even after upgrades and reinstalls

Not a fan of the update. The new layout is difficult to follow. The font is difficult to read. Bad design decisions. It also gives you a limitation error every time you swipe between screens.

Not broken, why fix?. After this "downgrade", I've gone back to using WBIR's version of this app. It works great. Just like this one used too.

Update PLEASE. This app used to be great for anywhere I was. I cannot get the daily and hourly forecast to load. Please update this app!!

Add aggressive. Very add aggressive. May be deleting soon because of all the pop ups

Great App!. Thanks for the 4Warn app-- it's a great companion to the News app. It would be even better if the most recent weather video forecast was added to the video section.

Ms bailey. Bring back the old radar!

Asking for bluetooth every time. The app asks to turn on bluetooth every time. Why?? It doesn't need it to run, just to connect to other devices. That is my choice, not some programmers whim or fantasy. Removed it from my machine. Fix the bluetooth problem. You did for news app, why not the weather app?

Spectacular. I never rate apps, but this one is too well done not to give a pat on the back. Maybe the previous editions weren't that hot--I don't know. What I do know is that the current one is wonderful. Definitely worth your time.

Says rain when isn’t. Like the app but its never correct on temp or weather . Time to find another app

Radar app. Radar app rarely works.

WSMV. I have to go to church tomorrow morning

Great Radar Loop. Works fine. Really needs to quit asking to connect with Bluetooth every time it's opened.

Decent App Could Be Better. A decent app with weather alerts... Would be better if the closings tab actually listed the closings in effect.

Helpful. I rely upon this app to tell me when severe weather is headed my way to keep my family safe.

Dislike. Very unhappy with update! Now all info is in a different spot and have to go hunting for what I'm looking for. Everything used to be on one page!

To many ads. Filtered out ALL ads and they still show up app is trash

Channel 4 weather app. Great App!

No school closing information. I added this app because WSMV discontinued their text updates for school closing. The closing are not listed in the app and don't appear to have been updated since 2014???

Not iPad friendly. Not iPad friendly. Only displays in portrait. My iPad keyboard case doesn't function standing up on end. Please fix.

Very Good App!. This app is easy to use and the forecasts are very detailed, especially in the 10 day outlook. The main thing missing is a 24 hour live stream of 4WARN Live Doppler. Add that, and I will add a fifth star! Very impressed with the ease of use, especially being an iPhone 3GS user. Well done! (Update: in response to the review about the app crashing on 3GS with iOS 5.1, I don't have that issue on mine. Update to iOS 6, and you shouldn't have that problem)

Worst app ever. If you download it, it will not open. I have deleted & reinstalled it 3 times still doesn't work. Hate I even have to rate it one star.

Ad-free version?. Really like the new weather app. I would pay a dollar or two for an ad- free version that would take advantage of the extra screen space on the iPhone 5, then I would give it 5 stars.

Not a fan of the update. I really liked this app before the update. It WAS easy to use and find everything I wanted to see. Not so much anymore. This update is right up there with the first 2 versions of iOS 8.

Love Ch 4 but want a quicker radar connection. Love Ch 4 but want a quicker radar connection

Amazing App!. This app works amazing, just a great app all around.

Good Weather for Middle Tennessee. Always give up to date info.

Great Radar, when it works. I’ve had to delete this app, it never works. It always says network error.

Thanks for fixing the bugs. Now that you have fixed the bugs - I would have to give the app 5 stars!!! Thanks Channel 4!!!!!

Daily and hourly forecast broken. Daily and hourly forecast is broken. Please fix

Awesome!. I have an iPhone 4S. Works perfectly! Love the features and having the 10 day forecast right at my fingertips is great!

Terrible app. Too many ads, including a scare-ware, warning my iPad memory is full. Click to clean. I don’t think so! Deleting NOW!

Useless on iPad. App on iPhone works fine. However on iPad the Hiller banner takes up so much space and is badly positioned making it useless

Very nice. Clear crisp picture. Easy to use. Love Channel 4!

Poorly designed app doesn't work. When trying to navigate through this app it closes itself without warning. This is very frustrating causing me to think about going to a competitor's app.

Used to be my fav. But now the app is glitching every time I open it!

Terrible app. I love WSMV anchors. But this app is clunky, only displays the correct video half of the time and is extremely slow to load

Poor update. Updated app- now I only see headlines- no story. I wish they had left it as it was.

Ad App. Get a notification for a story. Click on notification. Watch a ridiculously long ad. No story comes up or some totally unrelated story. Total waste of time. Love Chanel 4 but their app is horrible.

Weather app. This app loaded flawlessly works great, have an iPhone 4 running the latest software and it's flawless.

Not accurate. Lately every time I look at the app it is wrong. I now go to Twitter to get my weather from a different weather team.

Crashing. Since the last update at the beginning of March the app will no longer open on an iPhone 5S.

Commercials. To many Commercials you should watch an app without any

Horrible Update. I liked the old version where all the info was on the first page!!
