I used to really love the KWQC app. now my experience is hindered by the new radar map. I can't pause it where I want to without having to slide the time around on the bar, it is almost impossible to start and stop the playback of the radar quickly. The button now needs to be pressed multiple times, and most times it won't react or register a click . Wish it was the old map. Sadly very disappointed now.

Was a decent app. I've had this app installed for a few months now, and weather notifications stop functioning like every other weather app I've used so far. I don't get rain, snow, or even proper severe alerts for weather, but sure will get them for the quad cities where I'm not from... All notification settings ARE on, and my location is set correctly. Still no detailed special weather statements since my last review either.

I used to love this app, but it recently did an update and despite me having notifications turned off, it would randomly (and very loudly) shout "THIS IS A KWQC WEATHER UPDATE!" but there were never any notifications. It would happen randomly throughout the day, in the middle of the night, during a phone call. So irritating that I deleted the app.
