5/5My go-to weather app
We’ve been using KTXS Weather app for at least 10 years. It is my go-to weather app wherever we find ourselves. I no longer live in Texas but can attest it works fabulously in Washington state and Montana where we live now. Thank you so much.

1/5Deleted App Today
Had this app for years and it worked fine. In the last few months, this radar is whacked!! Last night, it said the storms were moving South, I thought that was strange, so I checked weather bug and the storms were actually moving NE! Last night I called my Aunt in Ft Worth to check on her, as this app said huge red storms right on top of her. NOPE… The storms were nowhere near her, even though this radar clearly said they were right on top of her. Earlier in the spring (2024) I closed my business down early because this radar said storms were heading straight for Abilene. The storms went North and missed Abilene completely. After last night, I’m done. I went and got weather bug and won’t be using this carp anymore because it’s giving out incorrect information.

5/5Not any more
This app used to be good but was recently changed and does not function as well now. Interactive map has delays. Overlays have issues. New symbols do not make as much sense. Just not as functional as the previous app. I now use a NOAA app.

5/5Great weather app
I’ve used it for years and love the doppler features. Even when I travel I use the same app. It’s a great app.

4/5Don’t like the new updated app.
I really used to like the app. But now the weather alert overlays blot our the precipitation. I have tried to find a way to lighten the watches and warnings, but it isn’t intuitively obvious. I am starting to use the Weather Station app instead. Wish you would put the other version back.
