Comments on IOWA'SNEWSNOWWX for Android

★★★★★ Barry Hooper · Aug 18, 2025

Precise weather info for my area. I can depend on the map for inclement situations.

★★★★★ Bob Pelletier · Dec 31, 2022

Very good straight forward weather radar. It's been on my desktop for what seems like forever.

★★★★★ Mark Gunn · May 24, 2022

It does what it is supposed to do. Simple enough, but others out there are lacking or too complex for a phone ap.

★★★★★ Brett Massey · Feb 13, 2019

This is the MOST ACCURATE weather app I have ever had. It matches with my local radio station forecast!!!!!!!

★☆☆☆☆ Terry Scott · Aug 16, 2025

Always wrong on forecast, today's forecast was sunny high of 80 no mention of evening storms, yet it has. Been thunderstorms for the last 3 hours. Weather channel is more accurate.

★☆☆☆☆ John “Johnnie” Roberson · Jun 28, 2024

I would have given 5 stars, but for the last 2 weeks my widget will not show current weather. I can select the widget and can see current weather. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app several times and still same thing. I even tried using different choices in the widget section and still same thing happens. I use a Motorola Pure G phone. What's up with this? Didn't have this problem before.

★☆☆☆☆ Mary Brammer · Oct 17, 2015

Worthless I can't see the radar, I don't need an app just to tell me the outside temperature! Please fix! A weather Apps purpose is so a person can see what the actual weather in their area is! 100 percent useless without the radar showing!

★★☆☆☆ Larry Oliver · Jul 25, 2018

Looks like I'll be looking for another weather app again. Lost my ability to open immediately on the radar screen. No exta button pushes or scrolling for me. Can't figure out why these weather apps have such a hard time making it, so you can set the screen you want on startup.
