Comments on WAFF 48 First Alert Weather for Android

★★★★★ Jan Stephens · Sep 22, 2026

Use radar. I can always see if rain or storms are close to me before leaving the house

★★★★★ Joy Youssef · Apr 6, 2026

Always a pleasure to tune in for quick look ahead and the ones I trust most during inclement weather.

★★★★★ J.C. · Mar 3, 2026

WAFF 48 is one of the most accurate, top weather apps I've ever used. I enjoy viewing my weather forecasts on this app daily. Been using WAFF app for 10+ yrs. Thx, meteorologist team. Enjoy your weather, as much as we do in Cali.

★★★★☆ Becky Laub · Apr 18, 2026

Accurate weather app. I don't really like the radar update & liked the layout before the last update

★★★★★ Becky Cook · Jul 11, 2026

Very, very beneficial to my on the go family. Thanks to Brad Travis and the whole weather team. God bless you 🙏

LIFE THREATENING USER INTERFACE UPDATE. This app used to automatically show tornado tracks on the radar. Today I was awakened by a tornado warning siren. I opened the app and saw the tornado warning announcement as an option, I poked that, and it displayed a blocky diagram of my county, but not the radar. Then I figured out the user interface had been changed. I spent precious minutes figuring out to poke + at the end of the floating bubbles, and had to create a custom view to see tracks.

Any bad weather coming from the west has ZERO accuracy! The radar slide bar use to show the time when you stopped sliding it, and now it disappears when you take your finger off of it. The daily rain percentage forecast never matches the details when you open it and look at the day and evening forecast.
