1. [R1] WPXI News 1/5 · US Wasn't broke...: Used to love the news app. WPXI HAD THE BEST! Then, even though it wasn't broke, you fixed it. It's the worst news app. I want to read not watch WPXI videos that are 80% commercials for WPXI. I expect your reporters to be professional however when you shove them down my throat, I wonder.
2. [R4] WPXI News 2/5 · US Review: The app used to be good. Now not so much. Don’t like having to scroll through a ton of ads to finish a news story. Plus gotta to be more news in our region. Do better WPXI. You’re a great station.
3. [R19] WPXI News 1/5 · US Uninstalling: There are ways to include ads without them being obnoxious and all over the place. I’m scrolling through the news and being bombarded by gambling ads and an image of an elderly person with their finger up their nose?
4. [R22] WPXI News 1/5 · US Too much: I wanted to mention that of course the ads are horrible and everybody hates them, but you have to make revenue off. I guess somehow I think the problem is is it’s in LA AI generated another becoming offensive now we have Cheech and Chong‘s Gummies to get high with now we have something to s gonna make every woman’s vagina wet. I actually took screenshots of these cause I was going to sen
5. [R3] WPXI News 3/5 · US My feedback on the WPXI app: Many times I get very frustrated with navigating through the WPXI app(and sincerely, the website) . It is hard to find information that you are looking for even if it aired that day. A lot of times the anchor woman or anchorman will say that there’s more information on the website and it is absolutely hard to find. You really have to go down a rabbit hole and it’s frus
6. [R9] WPXI News 3/5 · US Stories: I don’t like that when an alert comes across my phone and I click the alert that I’m not taken to that story. I have to scroll through the app to find it. And sometimes it’s not worth searching the app so I don’t bother to read the article.
7. [R10] WPXI News 1/5 · US Not user friendly.: Not user friendly at all. Every other app. when you swipe back to get to the previous screen, you do. With this app it takes you to the next article. Very frustrating.
8. [R13] WPXI News 2/5 · US Make it make sense: Why sent out a headline for an article that never shows up? Why is it so hard to navigate? Why are there so many ads? Why don’t you make it easy to follow up on stories?
9. [R5] WPXI News 4/5 · US Stories don’t show: When I get a highlight of a story in my phone feed, I click on it and it never opens up.
10. [R31] WPXI News 1/5 · US Junk: This app crashes more than drivers on rt 28.
11. [R37] WPXI News 2/5 · US Horrible app: Filled with bugs and clutches. App never ever works for me. When you click on something you want to view it jumps to something unrelated. I have tried re installing it, checked to see if there was any revised versions and found nothing work. I do not recommend downloading the WPXI iPad app or any of there apps.
12. [R42] WPXI News 4/5 · US Call an exterminator, this app has bugs: I like the app, but it has plenty of glitches. It’s been like this for months, and it makes it very difficult to use. But other than that, it’s a pretty good app.
13. [R16] WPXI News 2/5 · US Nope: The articles are old and not “new”s. They are also short, not detailed and sometimes vague.
14. [R34] WPXI News 4/5 · US Sylvia: I’m not happy with the new school delays. I’m also not happy with how long it takes to update the app with news. Always the same stories especially on the weekends The other thing is this website is never updated on the weekends. Same news for 3 days. . Page is never updated
15. [R39] WPXI News 1/5 · US Review: The news is basically the same thing for days and they use the same stories 2 or3 times to fill it up
16. [R47] WPXI News 2/5 · US Not what it used to be: They don’t update the news. It’s the same stories for 2 days. If you don’t read an article, it stays in your feed for weeks or it randomly shows up for a month. People want breaking news not what they have been hearing about for a month.
17. [R6] WPXI News 3/5 · US Too Many Videos: I would prefer to quietly READ the news in the still early morning without it suddenly blaring from my phone.
18. [R15] WPXI News 3/5 · US WPXI app / video feed: I use this app quite a bit. Dont like the recent change that the video feed with sound starts automatically when the app launches. Please give us an option to turn this off. Also please fix that the notification alerts go to the story for the notification.
19. [R41] WPXI News 1/5 · US Forced Auto Play Videos: SEIZURE WARNING!!!! That is what needs to be listed. There is absolutely ZERO control over the video that plays in the middle of the articles. There is ZERO way to stop it or pause it. I doubt they thought about the flashing lights from emergency vehicles causing people issues. A LOT of people read the their icons Phones in dim lighted areas and the brightness of the video
20. [R51] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Not user friendly: This app a waste of my time. It cuts the story off while the interview is going and just moves to the next story only to do the same thing. Also, most of the videos don’t show when you click on them; you can only hear people talking.
21. [R52] WSB-TV News 5/5 · US Excellent Updates: Excellent News Coverage
22. [R53] WSB-TV News 3/5 · US Stalls a lot: Can’t enjoy the app because it does not stay on or the videos stop frequently. Have to continuously come out of the app and go back in.
23. [R54] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Bad News: Every time breaking news comes through it’s always “Bad or Depressing “ news. I’ve never read anything good on this app.
24. [R65] Houston News from KHOU 11 1/5 · US Awful: The new app is awful and has been since it was launched. Fix the iPad screen size problem how about an option to change the font size to something readable
25. [R66] Houston News from KHOU 11 5/5 · US Hello: I enjoy getting news update on this app.
26. [R67] Houston News from KHOU 11 3/5 · US Vern the Vacuum: Wat too much clickbait
27. [R68] Houston News from KHOU 11 1/5 · US Difficult to navigate and find stories: The newest look to the KHOU app is simple, and I love how easy it is now to find livestreams, but it’s so hard to find local news without categories or a search bar. Really disappointing and frustrating.
28. [R79] WNEP The News Station 1/5 · US Weather: The latest update messed up the radar. It freezes then jumps ahead.. it sucks
29. [R80] WNEP The News Station 4/5 · US Sponsors: Find some new ones besides those stupid video games
30. [R81] WNEP The News Station 3/5 · US Good app Live TV isn't always love: The WNEP+ app is good except when I want to watch a live broadcast such as the news I can't always get the app to play it.
31. [R82] WNEP The News Station 1/5 · US App update: The new app update is horrible!!! How do you even find anything on it? It’s just an endless scroll of nothing. There’s no drop down menu for you to choose anything. No way to find local and regional sports info. No link to the community events page. No link to the Home and Backyard show/videos. The link for the weather doesn’t do anything. The page doesn’t load. I tried to fin
32. [R93] 13WMAZ 2/5 · US What happened?: I used to love the weather radar. I used it no matter where I was. Even in Europe on deployment. It was always the most accurate and easiest to understand. Since the update, I haven’t been able to access the radar not a once. I’ve got an iPhone 12Pro Max. Is my phone just too out of date for it? The weather portion won’t load, I can’t get my current location to stop saying Macon (I
33. [R94] 13WMAZ 5/5 · US Weather: Always keeping us informed
34. [R95] 13WMAZ 3/5 · US Bad update: I used to go to this app for the interactive map. But since your last update it’s terrible. Can’t see half the map because there’s a block with precipitation levels almost in the middle of the screen. Not to mention a big blob with the current temperature in Macon, which is completely unnecessary since I’m in Milledgeville.
35. [R96] 13WMAZ 1/5 · US Horrible app: This was a good app to use to get weather forecast but now can’t see anything. I don’t want to have to watch a video to get my forecast. I would rather read it or see radar myself. I would have given no stars but it won’t let me. Please do better
36. [R107] Knoxville News from WBIR 1/5 · US Newest update sucks: Radar crashes the app every time it’s completely unusable
37. [R108] Knoxville News from WBIR 5/5 · US Channel 10: Channel 10 is, . Cool
38. [R109] Knoxville News from WBIR 3/5 · US Glitchy: Glitches and freezes a lot. Not very user friendly. I just want to get on and check the weather. Also, the pop ups at the beginning are annoying. I liked the old weather app better..
39. [R110] Knoxville News from WBIR 1/5 · US Content: I am a loyal follower of WBIR. I enjoy the reporters and the news team. However, I have noticed that WBIR have given more coverage to Republicans in the upcoming elections. I don’t know if this is due to lack of participation from the Democratics or is this bias. It has really bothered me. I know this is a Republican state. I am a Republican, but not MAGA. I would like to know why the dis
