1. [R1] 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.
2. [R3] 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.
3. [R9] WSB-TV News 3/5 · US Great News, if you can get it: App sticks and makes it difficult to get the news.
4. [R13] WSB-TV News 2/5 · US yall are paid too much money to have this poor excuse of an app.: crashes. videos freeze on ads. often showing different media to the article altogether. spamming notifications all day long, then not being able to see the actual breaking news, because the player is just frozen black.
5. [R19] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US The app sucks: Never lets you watch videos and the links from notifications never work
6. [R21] WSB-TV News 2/5 · US Video issues: Frequently, videos won’t load properly. Sometimes they crash the app altogether. In other times it will play the wrong video. I love watching this TV station and they are my #1 source of news and weather in Atlanta, but the app rarely gets used because of these issues
7. [R7] 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
8. [R10] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Notifications have bad links: Lately and for the last day, the notification link takes us to an unrelated article. Who is managing the links? Then, if I want to find the relevant article based on that notification it’s not listed anywhere. You’re nailing the art of click bait.
9. [R15] WSB-TV News 3/5 · US Too many notifications: Some notifications are useless and not of regional significance.
10. [R16] WSB-TV News 2/5 · US good until notifications became spammy: there's no reason to start re-sending notifications about stories i already read about a week prior. what's the reason for this? i'll even open the article to see if it was updated but no, just unnecessarily spamming out notifications - and they're frequent enough as-is. deleting the app..
11. [R23] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Ads: You post way too many ads and from very aggressive home improvement companies
12. [R25] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US My trusted news source: I’ve been watching channel 2 action news all my life. I’m 56. I trust channel 2 with up-to-date Weather breaking news and information. But the website has a bunch of. And repetitive stories and fluff and filler that taint the credibility of WSB. The app needs to be updated and definitely remove all the ridiculous ads. Give us good, solid content and keep the trash as wher
13. [R29] WSB-TV News 2/5 · US Disappointed with WSB: Too many ads! The same news is repeating
14. [R49] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Needs improvementS!: As much as I love Channel 2 & WSB, the app is very disappointing. It’s buggy, sluggish, & the only thing that loads half the time is an advertisement for something that only appeals to elderly consumers. Many times I see something interesting that I would like to read, but the app is so frustrating that I simply give up.
15. [R6] 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!!
16. [R18] WSB-TV News 3/5 · US Notifications broken: You get a news notification that you want to read. You click on the notification and it doesn’t always take you straight to the article. Not going to waste time searching for it.
17. [R52] CNN 5/5 · US CNN: CNN provides timely news coverage and keeps me informed about important events happening around the world.
18. [R53] CNN 3/5 · US Disappointed: Since purchasing a subscription, the app now freezes while reading articles requiring me to restart the app in order to read articles; jumps backward while scrolling through articles; and goes to a black screen partway through an article which sometimes can be cleared by going backwards, but not always, and then trying to scroll forward again. I expected to have at least as good of
19. [R54] CNN 1/5 · US Pay for CNN is malfunctioning: I paid the annual fee of $29.99 but I keep getting kicked off the app. Please fix it! UPDATE: 2 years later, I continue to be kicked off the app. Fix it, please. Also, fee rose to $69.99 this year!
20. [R56] CNN 3/5 · US Paid subscription still has ads????: Thought I was subscribing to not have to deal with ads, the way subscribing at the most expensive level gets you with most other streaming services. What’s the benefit??
21. [R65] NewsBreak 1/5 · US Terrible source for news.: The headlines are always over the top and misleading. Usually notifications are for stories that are either old or irrelevant.
22. [R66] NewsBreak 5/5 · US I just wanna say I hope they handle the bears better than they did the moose: A
23. [R67] NewsBreak 3/5 · US Frustrated: Too many advertisements. I keep seeing sources i don’t want to see
24. [R68] NewsBreak 1/5 · US Chock full of AI, Trumpsters & Basic Features No Longer Work: Title says it all. 99.99% of all videos on this app are made with AI and intended to deceive. Since their main audience is senile Trumpster seniors, near everyone on the app is inherently incapable of differentiating between whats genuine/real and whats not. Moreover, these ppl will bet their first born child in order to defend these v
25. [R79] CNBC 1/5 · US Now I have to allow privacy access too , huh?: Bogus, deleted the app !
26. [R80] CNBC 5/5 · US Still poor “SAVED News Articles” panel: SAVED News Articles still awkwardly only in tiny side panel from User drop-down. Please put SAVED News back as an available NEWS SECTION so it can be in normal FULLSCREEN area like all other news sections/articles. Also (longtime complaint), scrolling right-side “5 other articles” should be available INDEPENDENTLY of where you are at scrolling through the a
27. [R81] CNBC 3/5 · US Metals prices missing: Under Commodities, the entire Metals prices are missing. Does anyone else have this problem?
28. [R82] CNBC 1/5 · US App won’t load lately: For the last few months I’m having issues where stories just won’t load. I have to reconnect to my wifi to make it work. Sort of annoying I’m assuming it’s tied to their spammy ads and my Unifi system blocking them. App used to work great, but since the spinoff has been bad.
29. [R93] The Wall Street Journal. News 1/5 · US Opt out bug: If you don’t choose “accept all” it goes into a terminal holding pattern that requires that I delete the app. Until this is fixed, I have to use the browser for content.
30. [R94] The Wall Street Journal. News 4/5 · US Sustainable business went dark: Always have appreciated the quality of reporting especially with the Sustainable Business section. Too bad they took it out.
31. [R95] The Wall Street Journal. News 3/5 · US Gift Links Don’t work.: Please fix app so I can send gift links This used to work. Now link says it copies but recipients can’t open. Sends them to subscriber/log in page.
32. [R96] The Wall Street Journal. News 2/5 · US Crossword fan: You broke the crossword with the recent update. The keyboard is not ergonomic on iPad, clues bizarrely jump around when inputting letters and the clue being answered no longer appears as a separate line. Please fix or revert to the previous iteration.
33. [R107] FOX News 2/5 · US Merchandise: Three times I bought clothing and hats from ads on the app. These products were extremely cheaply made with extremely shoddy materials. The actual product looks nothing like the pictured product. Several other products, from nasa engineers designed A/c to miracle medical products have been proven ineffective and outright fraudulent. I’m forced to delete and go with another media outle
34. [R108] FOX News 4/5 · US Site freeze after viewing article: Kind of annoying to have to re-open app after reading articles.
35. [R109] FOX News 3/5 · US Sleazy and disreputable ads: I follow the Fox News App closely but I’ve been put-off by a lot of your ad content, including your practice of selling ads to companies pushing hoax products and models displaying women’s underwear. Fox is a clear leader in the business so I think you can afford to show a little more class. Come on, people.
36. [R110] FOX News 1/5 · US Not working: App does not work very upsetting, the wheel keeps spinning. This is on an Apple TV. I am unable to authenticate a cable subscription. Everything else works but live tv. This is the only app that has this problem.
