1. [R13] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Too many bugs: Your app is so glitchy. The videos freeze and it crashes. I was relying on it for the news when you were no longer on YouTube tv. You’ve got a long way to go! Improve your app!
2. [R26] WSOC-TV News 2/5 · US Videos are doubled and audio plays even after app is closed: As a Charlotte native I trust WSOC-TV for my news. However, lately the app audio will start playing even when I am not in the app. I was in a meeting a work and even though my phone was on silent, the audio from a news story started playing. So embarrassing!!! This was not the first time either one night, in the middle of the night, it s
3. [R28] WSOC-TV News 2/5 · US Video hangs and then plays double audio: Since the latest update, I have resorted to shutting the app down after only about 5 minutes of use. The live video abruptly stops and when it starts again, it plays double audio or even the audio from a commercial (of which now there are WAY to many). Until this is resolved, I will no longer use the app.
4. [R32] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US It’s playing double audio since update: Audio n video errors need to be fixed immediately; I can’t watch it even just read because automatically the app opens with audio playing. If I try to pick something else the original audio n new audio plays at same time. Then at times the video doesn’t open with error showing but audio playing someone but another audio is playing as well. Very annoying and
5. [R3] WSOC-TV News 3/5 · US 30 days on website: Still have some stories that have been on your web site for more than a month Sure there are other stories that could be there
6. [R4] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Don't Bother: This is, by far, the worst news app of the three network TV stations in Charlotte. It's technologically shoddy and unreliable, and consistently has outdated information. As for the staff, their writing, spelling and grammatical skills are embarrassingly poor more often than not. I finally gave up and deleted it from my mobile device.
7. [R10] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Horrible!: Do not depend on this app for your local Charlotte news! This app is constantly full of old news and outdated information and stories. It doesn’t get updated on a regular basis, and important stories can take days to make it to the app. In addition, they repeat the same story multiple times under different headings to make it look like there is a lot of news content. There isn’t. Spor
8. [R16] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Review of the app: Some stories remain on the app for weeks and weeks. This is a waste of my time to keep looking at this app. I look other places for my local news
9. [R2] WSOC-TV News 4/5 · US Infomercials way too long!!: Same infomercials time after time!!!
10. [R21] WSOC-TV News 3/5 · US Review: Overall, I enjoy WSOC-TV 9. I do think Britany Johnson is melodramatic, in talking to the audience like we’re all 5 years old (irritating), and do you have to keep interrupting my news every morning with Lisa Robinson trying to sell stuff to me?? Always starting out with “Hey guys; I’ve got something I know you’re gonna love; and I think it’s the best thing ever!” Well, let her buy the stu
11. [R34] WSOC-TV News 2/5 · US .: To many ads. Also can only turn iPad 1 way.
12. [R48] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Unusable/ Awful intrusive ads: Content disappears while reading it. Ads move around and have invisible tappable areas that trigger the ads when you do not intend to tap on them. Horrible app development practices.
13. [R1] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Text size: The app doesn’t do larger font. Please fix that.
14. [R7] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Outdated?: Your app needs to be updated to allow auto rotation from portrait to landscape when used on an iPad. I have submitted this comment previously but to no avail. Please strongly consider making this improvement.
15. [R36] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Hard to read: Print is so small on this app it’s hard to differentiate the adds from the news story.
16. [R38] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Can’t use on IPad anymore: What’s wrong? Can only view it in portrait mode.
17. [R20] WSOC-TV News 4/5 · US Bait and switch??: I like this app, but have one issue. I’ll get an alert about a news story. I’ll click on the alert to take me to the story, but it just takes me to the apps main page. Story I clicked on nowhere to be found….
18. [R22] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Terribly outdated and broken app: Notification links don’t even open
19. [R6] WSOC-TV News 3/5 · US Video: I HATE the upgrade. All of a sudden a week or so ago news videos started playing automatically and won’t stop even when you close the app. If I wanted to watch or hear the video I should be able to control it myself. It’s really annoying to open the app to catch up on headlines and a video starts blaring, especially if I’m doing this in a quiet space like a doctors office or bed while my
20. [R24] WSOC-TV News 1/5 · US Time to delete: Not sure what’s going on with this app but I’m deleting it because it keeps opening on its own, randomly. I’m not sure if it’s a tactic to get the ads displayed or what but I’m over it.
21. [R27] WSOC-TV News 5/5 · US WSOC app: I hate the new format that has a video at the top of the page playing when I’m trying to read a story on the page. If I want to watch a video I will click on it. I get double play at once and it drives me crazy. You need to go back to the old format. If this continues I will fond another station to get my newa.
22. [R55] WSB-TV News 5/5 · US I appreciate what’s making news, as a former TV anchor in San Francisco, now retired in Marietta, GA: The constant updates and factual information provided by WSB-TV News is a CONSTANT in my life. I thoroughly appreciate how WSB-TV STAYS ON THE JOB…Delivering news we can all TRUST AND BELIEVE . THANKS TO ALL WHO MAKE THAT POSSIBLE.
23. [R64] WSB-TV News 5/5 · US #1 News Station: I am a native Atlantan, grew up watching WSB TV. Excellent coverage of the news,sports and weather. I moved to Port Richey, Fl five years ago. Daily I read Channel 2 news. Here in Florida I watch Channel eight news. It’s a Tampa station.
24. [R56] WSB-TV News 3/5 · US No taken to the article chosen. I: I assume this is how you get people to look at all articles and not just the ones they want to see. It’s very frustrating!!
25. [R57] WSB-TV News 2/5 · US Frequently Annoying: 1. There are frequent multiple notifications for the EXACT article minutes apart and then days later. I’ll have anywhere from 21-50 notifications and about 12-15 are repetitive. 2. Sometimes I click the notification and the article doesn’t load and it’s impossible to find it on the app. 3. I have to frequently forward the articles in a message or to google in order to see the
26. [R69] WNEP The News Station 5/5 · US Great local reporting: WNEP provides excellent reporting on regional news, alerts, local happenings, snapshots and the best weather reporting (hey Joe) so we can get through our day. Thank you and keep up the good work.
27. [R68] 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
28. [R70] WNEP The News Station 3/5 · US Change in app made it worse: Don’t know what you did, but after the last update, I can no longer see the daily forecast and my location is wrong.
29. [R71] WNEP The News Station 1/5 · US Previously useful app is now garbage: No organization, no dates on stories, no way to search. Just an endless scroll of random articles. It’s supposed to be a news app but is now more geared to social media users. Whoever designed it should find another line of work. They sure didn’t have users in mind.
30. [R83] 10TV WBNS Columbus 5/5 · US Channel 10 TV: I really like watching channel 10 on my phone as well as at home. We are always well informed with them sometimes the forecast guy. It happens keep up the good work.👍
31. [R86] 10TV WBNS Columbus 5/5 · US Dependability: If you need to know, you can depend on 10TV .
32. [R79] 10TV WBNS Columbus 1/5 · US Kevin: Weather radar is garbage in this version. It repeats the same weather over and over again. The same exact storm front continues to pass over.
33. [R81] 10TV WBNS Columbus 3/5 · US Weather: New weather radar sucks and no daily forecast
34. [R95] MS NOW 3/5 · US MS NOW LIVE ON THERE APP ONLY: Why can’t MS NOW show there live broadcasts on there app like NBC news does instead of going thru a subscription TV NBC News have a live take every time you watch NBC News
35. [R97] MS NOW 3/5 · US App volume is too low!: I love the content but the volume on live streaming of the tv channel is set way too low. I have to put my Ipad volume all the way to maximum in order to hear the app at a reasonable volume. They need to fix this. It’s a problem.
36. [R101] MS NOW 3/5 · US Needs work…: You have to log into your isp every few days, sometimes in the middle of a show. Lately I can’t get the audio loud enough to hear in my earbuds while walking. Kind of defeats the purpose.
37. [R105] MS NOW 3/5 · US Live Stream issues: Live stream is frequently an issue. An error message appears with “retry” but rarely works.
38. [R114] WHIO News 5/5 · US I love this app: Even if I can't watch the news it will still let me listen I like that feature and I love all the channels you can watch on the app.
39. [R117] WHIO News 5/5 · US News Notion: Great coverage on a daily basis.
40. [R107] WHIO News 1/5 · US Worst news app ever: I’ve never seen a worse app on any platform. It’s nothing but ads that block what you try to see, stutter, stop you reading a story, and just generally get in the way of anything you want to do. Whio used to be my go-to. Not anymore.
41. [R110] WHIO News 1/5 · US Horrible UI/UX and News Coverage: As a mobile developer I can attest to many of the comments on the user experience front. You receive a notification, tap on it, you are brought to the app but not the story, instead ads are everywhere takes forever to load and the auto playing of unrelated content is absolutely horrible. Good luck finding the arrival of the deep link isn’t valid. Don’t waste your
