Comments on WFMY Radar for Android

★★★★☆ Joe Nett · Feb 24, 2024

Love this app. I've been using it for years. But since the last update, it won't rotate when I turn my phone. This was a feature I've always used and hoped you can fix this.

★★★★★ Jenny Rickert · May 10, 2021

I love clicking on the app and immediately having the radar map popping up and having the hourly and daily forecasts at my fingertips. It puts the other local channel apps to shame.

★★★★★ Roy Conoly · Sep 1, 2020

This app keeps me up to date with all my local weather. Thanks for all you do.

★☆☆☆☆ Cheryl Bridges · Feb 7, 2021

Used to be my go-to weather app, but hasn't worked on my Android (Samsung Note 8) since the last update. It's been several weeks with no improvement. Just deleting it and going to Weather Bug or another reliable app.

★★☆☆☆ Caroline Bowles · Feb 7, 2021

App doesn't work since update. Doesn't show the temps at all

★★☆☆☆ Brian Johnson · Mar 3, 2020

Last update killed the future animated radar. If not fixed soon I'll be deleting and finding another app!
