Comments on KFVS12 First Alert Weather for Android

★★★★★ Julie · Apr 19, 2026
Right now without having channel 12 on our dish right now, it helps with the weather updates.
★★★★★ Tom Clark · Dec 5, 2025
Allen puts together a very informative weather forecast/educational program, Keep going Allen. P.S. Miss Brian 😐 Hope retirement does him well!
★★★★★ Angelina Larocque · Jan 14, 2026
I love you graphics, and I love the radar it's very accurate I would recommend it to everyone that needs a weather app
★★★★☆ Aaron · Oct 28, 2025
During harsh weather conditions, KFVS-12 keeps me well-informed. During tornado season Grant is on top of it giving out near-precise warnings.
★☆☆☆☆ Kevin · Mar 11, 2026
With this new update you can't have alerts and radar on at the same time. Hate it. Was better before.
★☆☆☆☆ David Paterimos · Jan 9, 2026
I don't really care for the new update. It has been taking forever to load & has crashed on me multiple times today. Can I just have the older map back? The one that was there when I woke up today.
★★☆☆☆ Bradley Batson · Jun 12, 2026
Full page ad upon opening that must be waited out for it to disappear (really great when in severe weather when you're trying to figure out if you need to get to safety). Hourly outlook doesn't give the % chance of precipitation all the time. Sometimes it says nothing (assumed 0%), sometimes will actually give the % chance of precipitation, or will say XX:00 Light rain begins XX:45 light rain ends which is unhelpful for knowing what % of the area will get rain.
