I give up, tired of installing and uninstalling constantly for this Freeze Frame stuttering video that's worthless. sending reviews and request to NBC get you nowhere, they don't give a "you know what". don't waste your time with this network, it's aggravating and a waste of time, quite interesting that the commercials work perfectly and then the broadcast completely chops up incoherently. I find it hard to believe that a network so large could care less about the app, pitiful
When it works it's great. But right now for instance I am trying to catch up on Tuesday's (Sept. 3, 2 days sgo) broadcast, but while the label says September 3, it's showing a February broadcast. When I went to Feedback to try to notify them of the error, "Sharing" and it's options showed instead. 🤷♀️
I have to give this zero stars. The app may or may not be to blame. Video stutters and stops and I rarely can watch a full broadcast. I've tested my connection and all other sites and apps work fine so it's not the fault of my devices or connection. I now watch a different network news. Just don't have the patience.
This app is fantastic when those in charge do their job. One day the app doesn't allow for screen rotation and therefore the broadcast can't be viewed in full screen mode. Another day someone will forget to load the broadcast to the app. It's very frustrating. Please get it together and have someone write a procedural guide for those individuals responsible for getting the broadcast to the app the same way each day. Then you'll have an app worthy of NBC Nightly News.
Two problems: 1. The app only supports horizontal view while watching news. 2. Full screen watching is kind of distracting cos at top there are some icons like quit and share. NBC Nightly New is informative. It's one of my favorite programs. Hope the APP can be improved.
Eats up ALL KINDS OF DATA, and won't work for schit when your data isn't high speed. Very unimpressive and mediocre, especially considering it's supposedly showcasing a major telecommunications media's flagship programming. Overall, don't bother. It's NOT worth the data it uses, and mine is unlimited.
Rarely updated at 10:00 pm to enable the full broadcast as stated on the page. I prefer to watch the entire episode while traveling and can only do so on line. The stories alone are good but they seem incomplete without the host's intro.
I rely on this App when I can't get to see the live telecast. The HD quality and options to select individual reports is vital. Nightly films is also available. Great concept!
your streaming is broken and static-filled/ commercials are, on the other hand, smooth and clear/ I am not on this app for the commercials. I tried reloading the app. Nothing changed. Buh-bye.
I am so disappointed in this app because it claims to make that night's news broadcast available at 10pm eastern time. It rarely does. I would like to subscribe to a service that allows me to simply stream what's on live TV and to call up recent programs across the NBC family. Peacock isn't there yet. Too bad, still waiting.
Used this app every night before bed pre January 2019. Then the app started to glitch and freeze when playing the broadcast. 5 months later and still same issue. Sorry but 5 months to fix an app is waaaaaaay generous. I'm out and ill give another major news outlet a chance. Still love watching NN live but never again on this app.
The Nightly News program ran surprisingly smoothly, without a glitch. My only complaint is that it doesn't run full screen on my phone. It is limited to about one quarter screen. If there is a way to enlarge it I don't see it.
The streaming is extremely problematic. Often while watching Nightly News the stream will abruptly stop and go back ot the very beginning. This can happen multiple times during one episode.
This app was fine until about a month ago or so, then started stuttering and it cannot be viewed. Same complaints from other viewers, are you people not seeing the complaints and issues on your app or are you stuttering too? This was one of my 2 favorite news app every evening! Please fix. It doesn't look like you people care about your PR with your viewers.
Video studded stops even with high speed connection. Often has problems like missing entire days worth of content especially on weekends. Not the best look for NBC.
It keeps skipping the whole time I'm trying to watch the news. I love this app when it works right but when it doesnt work like it is sopose to I hate it. It is my main form of news and it really upsets me it's not working right.
Wow. Tried to play last night's news...WHAT a fiasco. Painful freezing, doubling back. STILL Needs an update. Audio lags. Freezes. Doubles back. My same review for months.
It's a good app but when I try to rotate my phone to watch full screen, it doesn't work and unlike YouTube it doesn't have a special button to press to make it full view.
i was trying to watch today nighty news. i guess your not allowed to watch it from your app unless it is a day after it broadcast on Tv. It seem like a useless app to me. if i can't watch the news of the day I'm in. no use for this app to take up space on my phone. totally useless.
It keeps skipping and repeating itself or jumps ahead by so many seconds and you missed the story. This was a problem before and now it's back again
I just get bad Visual and audio at times. I also don't get every day's news especially on weekends. a little bit irritating. now again today's. 5/4/19
Since I've had this app not all nightly newscasts are available. January 11th is missing. One last week was missing also. Only had this app about 1 month..
I used to rate NBC 5 stars. I am now rating it 1 star. I used to watch the Nightly News everyday with my breakfast! Now for some reasion you are not putting it on untill 2 days later, by then I have watched that day's news on another network! I would rather watch it on NBC but because you have held back the show untill it is "Old News". I guess I will have to watch my news on CNN. At least until you put it back the way it was. signed, "used to be loyal customer"
HORRIBLE! If I could give it a zero I would. It just does not work, been this way for months. It used to work great,, don't know what happened. I click on full broadcast and it starts in the middle of the program and then jumps to an old broadcast from 5 mos ago. I will continue to watch NBC News, I'll just record it. Uninstalling!
