1. [R7] 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.
2. [R15] 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.
3. [R30] 5/5 · US WSB-TV News: WSB news keeps informed. Thanks!
4. [R33] 5/5 · US WSB: Always can count on on WSB for accurate News and info👌👍
5. [R63] 5/5 · US Truth: Most up to date news and weather, thanks
6. [R78] 5/5 · US Review. I love the way channel 2 calls me about the weather, especially the severe storms!!! Thanks: All news tends to be bad news! Maybe good news will bread more good, Godly news! Why not try more good news & things!!! I’ve watched channel 2 news most of my 75 years!!
7. [R117] 5/5 · US The severe weather: Where’s the info on the weather?????? We deserve to hear from , I can’t remember his name, the weather guy until all the threats of tornadoes have passed! He gives us tornado warnings for our area until 3:00am and then just leaves us hanging with no more info!!!!! OH LORDY I MISS GLEN BURNS SO MUCH AND HE WOULDN’T LEAVE US LIKE THIS. TIME TO CHANGE NETWORKS !
8. [R1] 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.
9. [R8] 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.
10. [R12] 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
11. [R23] 1/5 · US Delete it: I used to rely on this app when I wasn’t able to watch the news but last couple of months it has been freezing and crashing every time I open it so I deleted it
12. [R2] 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.
13. [R4] 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
14. [R10] 1/5 · US The app sucks: Never lets you watch videos and the links from notifications never work
15. [R6] 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.
16. [R9] 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..
17. [R14] 1/5 · US Ads: You post way too many ads and from very aggressive home improvement companies
18. [R16] 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
19. [R19] 2/5 · US Disappointed with WSB: Too many ads! The same news is repeating
20. [R41] 1/5 · US Ads: The ads make the app glitch and you can’t read the articles
21. [R32] 1/5 · US Not good: It is hard to read a story on this app without so many interruptions. While reading a story it automatically jumps to another topic that has nothing to do with the story I’m reading. Very poor technical issues.
22. [R38] 1/5 · US Update needed: Can’t finish reading an article before screen goes white.
23. [R39] 3/5 · US App Needs Work: I enjoy reading the news on the app. However, lately, in the middle of reading a story, the words disappear and I have to close the app, re-find the article and just hope it doesn’t disappear a 2nd (or 3rd or 4th) time.
24. [R37] 1/5 · US would be nice: It would be nice to rotate my iPad and/or make the type big enough to see
25. [R62] 2/5 · US Great news, not so great app: The app freezes frequently in this new version. As others have commented, I would like to view in landscape mode but am unable to do so. Many stories on the home page come up as a black screen and I have to go to the local or national tab where I’m then able to read. The same investigative stories are kept on the home page for too long and I can’t even figure out why
26. [R70] 1/5 · US Don’t know how to app: Silly things like rotating the screen and not robust. Fix it Charter
27. [R170] 3/5 · US Works properly in portrait only: Will not align in landscape
28. [R13] 5/5 · US Be specific: When you are writing about an accident, murder or house fire, people want to know what town in the county you mention, what street if possible and the name(s) of the victim(s) else there is no point in even mentioning it.
29. [R22] 2/5 · US A lot of inconsistencies in the app.: This app makes it very difficult to see videos and stories attached to the notifications that pop up on my phone. Whenever I click to go into the app to view the story, many times if it has a video attached, I can’t click on the video without being inundated by commercials. And then often times I don’t even get to see the video. Or, a different story that has
30. [R3] 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.
31. [R24] 2/5 · US Unreliable App: It is very frustrating to receive push notification teasers only to have the app crash upon opening more than half the time. Please fix this bug. It definitely has caused me to get my news from a more reliable app.
32. [R43] 1/5 · US Needs Extreme UPDATE: Every time I’m trying to read an interesting story on the app, as I scroll down to continue reading, one of the ads click on. Now, I don’t tap on the ads, I’m scrolling to read the full investigative story, but the ad that I’m scrolling pass uploads & I can’t go back to what I was reading. I’ll tap the icon on the upper left corner, but what I was just reading seconds ago is
33. [R46] 1/5 · US Notifications never take you to the story: New news notifications take you to a large “MONTLICK AND ASSOCIATES” ad then the main page. Not sure what is trying to be accomplished here, but now I associate Montlick and Associates with an app not working. Is this app being maintained or tested? This will just make me use the X app more instead
