When you interrupt for breaking news many times it's not really new breaking news but updates. For example this morning it broke just before end of TPIR & we got to watch people milling around for the vote for 5 or 10 min.. If had waited another 5-10 seconds we could have seen who won. Nice to see end of program. CBS does this many times so we miss the ending of shows when if using a little common sense when it's not true emergency news it wouldn't interfere w/ the few shows worth watching.
It never opens to the story I got the notification about. I thought it might be better with the update but it still has the same issue but now it opens to a loud add. Nope, deleting.
Lots of bugs!! It constantly stops, and every time you restart it you got to watch another commercial missing more of the news! The volume just shuts off at random!! I get more frustrated trying to watch it, I just shut it off!!
It's a great app, been using it for a few years. Keep me informed the Latest news updates and very accurate on the weather almost never miss😁
Mostly terrible app. When it does work (which is only during literally every other update), the news stories are decent. The settings are an absolute joke...I have all boxes UNCHECKED except for sports alerts and severe weather alerts; yet, I get 7 or 8 completely irrelevant and unrelated alerts all day long. The "quiet time" function is nice...when it works...which it doesn't. I still get alerts during my selected times if I haven't silenced my phone for the night.
The same repetitive commercials are very annoying. It constantly has an "error" message. It's the same issues for the Amazon fire stick app. Somedays are better than others but ultimately I would not recommend this app. My rating has nothing to do with the morning crew. Nick Allard is my absolute favorite! This review is strictly based on the performance of the app.
Needs to stop taking u from alerts to videos with ads...can I please just read or see a news story
The amount of commercials you need to watch just to see a tiny bit of news is ridiculous. And then after sitting through the commercials, half the time there is no video to see. Then more commercials, then more... I finally gave up when I just went to adjust settings and all I got was an ad to stare at.
Too many push notifications with news that has nothing to do with me, even after applying filters multiple times. Also, too many things meant to get me to watch live broadcast; I'm more of a reader than a watcher.
Unpredictable how its going to act. Poorly designed, slow, not easy to navigate. The only thing it is good for /¹is to watch the news live. Because if you miss it they wont replay it or sometimes they do. So its undependable as well
Updates come in quickly but the ads make this app almost unusable. There are floods and floods of ads going by constantly. Good luck ever watching a video without it crashing or pausing every 2 seconds from the constant bombardment of absolutely useless ads.
I use this mostly for traffic and weather. It is usually spot on for both. The description of where the roads are slow and the severity it's impact on driving conditions is of great help in making sure I allow enough time to get to where I am going.
I can't describe my disappointment in this news app. I was looking for news, not constant advertisement. Everytime I got a notification, it never took me to the notification story, but rather to the story I already read. This app wasted my time and notification checks and gave me no better news than googling the news when I want.
Used to be a great app, fast and responsive. Sadly it's almost unusable now. It crashes regularly and randomly, is slow, and often just doesn't work at all. Please fix!
Far better than it's been in a long time, no longer randomly crashes, seems much more stable. Good layout, easy to find what you're looking for, really like the hi res doppler!
Noooo! I will give this 4 stars if it works again! No longer working on both of my Firesticks. App shows splash screen and then crashes, bringing me back to the Firestick homepage. Please fix. 🙂
I am disconnecting from you because you're biased. It seems that the reporting is not equal. You emphasize that one side is better than the other when both sides acted immaturely. I do not wish to watch any news broadcast that is not biased in its reporting. The last year of news reporting by this channel has been biased during each and every news report related to politics.
Worked fine for 2 days! Now it stalls..it's hesitant and brings my phone to a "standstill"..uninstalling!
This app has been helpful (especially in the time of covid19), but the push notifications are out of control. I get 3 every 20 minutes or so that tend to either send me to articles I already read or send me the home page.
It keeps me up to date with all news...local, state, federal, sports and weather accurately. The news is always update frequently, so breaking news is always current.
This is the only app that won't open. I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and I still can't get it to open. I don't know why. All the other tv news apps, like Q13, King5, and Komo4 will open with no problem. I'm very unhappy!
I have quiet hours set, yet every night around 11 my phone goes off with some alert. Also when you send a breaking news alert for a live announcement from the governor dont make me watch a 15sec ad then tune me in late to the announcement. Especially when the ad always glitches and take 45sec instead of 15. Most of the time by the time it loads the main information for announcement is over and now I have to go find a written article to find out what was said.
Since the update there is a large ad that runs in the home page disguised as a forecast. Then when you go to daily page the columns are too small for the font size used. Not as good since the update.
