Comments on WCAX WEATHER for Android

★★★★★ Don Malasky · Jul 12, 2025

Was using some generic weather app, put WAX in my phone and love it!! My local weather and radar, works so good.

★★★★★ Lauriann Gaudette · Apr 24, 2024

★★★★★ lynda dewitt · Oct 20, 2025

Love this local tv station weather app! Accurate forecasts wherever I happen to be.

★★★★★ Karen Larson · Sep 28, 2024

Great app! Always runs without problems. Keep up the amazing job and Happy 70th to WAX!

★★☆☆☆ Sandra O'Flaherty · Feb 15, 2026

I uninstalled it because even though I had notifications turned off it would constantly announce "a news weather alert has arrived"

★☆☆☆☆ Bess Chamberlain · Oct 16, 2025

Too long to load notifications. When a notification comes up, it just takes at least 20 seconds for the video to even show up... let alone load

★★☆☆☆ Tom Allen · Jul 16, 2023

No severe weather alerts, S23 Ultra, all alerts on and permissions set.

★★☆☆☆ Chris Persons · Mar 30, 2025

Guys have to remember Montpelier is part of Vermont and you guys have video of other places yeah Montpelier's here to we would like more accurate weather for Montpelier than Rutland and all those work on that

Trust & Safety: The app requests location permissions (coarse and fine) and background location to provide GPS-based forecasts, along with internet access, push notifications, and background services. It also includes ad services and analytics libraries as indicated by the permission set. These are standard for weather apps and align with its core functionality, though the background location and ad-related permissions may be a consideration for privacy-conscious users.
