1. [R2] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 4/5 · US Opening app: Every time I get a notification about an updated story I click on it that seems very interesting and it does not go to that story. Very disappointing.
2. [R3] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US Notifications are not linked: It is so frustrating when a notification shows up on my phone, hit the link, but it only opens your app. The notification should take you to the article mentioned in the notification. Then I search and search and can never find the article. Waste of my time trying to use your app.
3. [R9] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US AP doesn’t seem to keep up with notifications: I get notifications from ABC13 on a regular basis. 99% of the time, when I click on the notification and the APP opens, there is nothing there about what the notification was about…
4. [R15] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US Notifications - improve the target they open: It’s not a good user experience when very specific notifications to the phone screen only open the app when clicked. The expectation for notifications is that they open a target page directly related to the notification so the user doesn’t have to hunt around in the app for the information that brought them to it. Otherwise, app is great!
5. [R17] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 5/5 · US You need some help with your ap: It DOESNT work!!!!!! It just sits there. My phone and apps are up to date! It’s not me, it’s you!
6. [R20] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 5/5 · US Terrible app- able to all nbc and cbs without a problem. Your app does not work on I phone???: Your does not work- able to get all news on my I phone but your message says no internet. What give?
7. [R21] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US News: I have been using and 13 Houston for year's, a few months ago I switch to I phone, now every few days the program locks up and won't do anything, so I delete, and reload, but the problem continues. Can you give me any reason? ……….just saying
8. [R27] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US Freezing: What is going on it keeps freezing?
9. [R4] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 1/5 · US New update: Just terrible since the new update. Can only see past or future. No longer both combined. Going backwards.
10. [R18] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US Change layout: I would like to swipe left to read a new story instead of having to scroll to the end of the story.
11. [R24] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US New app: RADAR is too small. Old version landscape was larger and you could see it better. This version the map stays small when you turn your phone.
12. [R30] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US No search box?: I see no search box and when I click on “explore “, it gives me numerous topis, but I still can’t ask for a specific topic. I could scroll. All day without GI what I’m after
13. [R6] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US Channel 13 reports: Channel 13 does a decent job reporting local news but the biased opinions of the station’s governing agency is always apparent when addressing President Trump. Shame on you!!!
14. [R7] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 1/5 · US Government censorship: ABC and its parent companies are censoring political views unfavorable to Trump, just because they are scared of getting sued by Trump again. I had to delete the app because of this government censorship interference
15. [R10] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 1/5 · US Bowing to FCC: Removed all abc from our lives
16. [R34] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 1/5 · US Left slanted: Hardly news. It’s so far left.
17. [R12] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 3/5 · US Too many notifications!: 90% of the app seems like it’s about the weather over and over and over and over. It’s never what they say will be so I don’t understand why they HAR it so many times even on the 30 minutes of newscast it’s weather five minutes something else five minutes something else weather I mean how much weather do we need? Everybody has the app if we want to get the weather it’s ove
18. [R16] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 1/5 · US Sports section. Not very good. I wish they would have Bob Allen Tim Melton: Can you cover more sports beside Houston teams in a few minutes of sports back in old days by Tim Melton. Bob Allen. Cover a lot of sports. What went on all day in a few minutes.
19. [R28] ABC13 Houston News & Weather 1/5 · US Not enough pertinent notifications: Too much non breaking news notifications
20. [R51] The Weather Channel 1/5 · US Latest iTunes app update CRASHES!: Scrolling to the right (right arrow) to see more than the next 10 hours now CRASHES you out of the app! Good job developers!
21. [R52] The Weather Channel 5/5 · US Wonderful help tool: Helps me make plans... and keep up with family and friends all over the world, as well as Local on the 8’s.
22. [R53] The Weather Channel 3/5 · US To many ads: The whole ad thing started not to long ago. I get it. That’s how you make money. When you go none to some it’s an annoyance.
23. [R54] The Weather Channel 1/5 · US Needs updating: Why when I am at work does it say that I am at home? And when I am at home, it says I am at work? I have it set to know where it is at all times
24. [R65] 6abc Philadelphia 1/5 · US FIX IT!!!!! STILL BROKEN: What is the problem that can’t be fixed with the app FREEZING UP? SAME ISSUE OVER AND OVER. THE AP FREEZES EVERY TIME. CAN NOT USE THE APP WITHOUT IT LOCKING UP. FIX IT!!! Your competition doesn’t have an app that doesn’t freeze up.
25. [R66] 6abc Philadelphia 5/5 · US Close app: The news is too much for me
26. [R67] 6abc Philadelphia 3/5 · US Minimum OS: Looks like your recent version has surpassed the maximum OS my iPhone can support. I don’t get a new iPhone every time Apple makes a new one. Please update the backwards compatibility. Thanks!
27. [R68] 6abc Philadelphia 2/5 · US New app: Just hate it. I can’t get the update and the articles suck.
28. [R79] KPRC 2 Weather 1/5 · US Beansiesdaddy: This version of the app crashes constantly
29. [R80] KPRC 2 Weather 4/5 · US Icons: For the most part I like the app but the location icons on the radar map are way too big. And the location descriptor label is very annoying. It covers the area you are trying to see and takes several taps to get rid of. I would prefer it didn’t even appear. I do like seeing the future cast radar.
30. [R81] KPRC 2 Weather 3/5 · US Widget stopped working: I added a widget to my iPad Home Screen for this app some time ago so I can see the hourly weather at all times. I quit working yesterday and the widget now only says I must agree to the Terms and Conditions before I can use the widget. I couldn’t figure how to actually agree so I deleted the app and reinstalled it. I immediately saw the terms and conditions and clicked on
31. [R82] KPRC 2 Weather 2/5 · US The worst forecasting: How this app has so many five stars is beyond me. Must be paid reviews because the KPRC weather guy, Anthony Yáñez, rarely gets the forecast right. As I sit here typing this, the app says 20% chance of rain all day yet it’s storming at my house. Last night, Yanez said the rain would be gone by 4 am yet here we are at 9:15 am with thunder and pouring rain. If I did my job as
32. [R93] KPRC 2 News 1/5 · US Review: Your news is mainly from AP which is too liberal
33. [R94] KPRC 2 News 5/5 · US Best news ever,: I’ve been a fan for 65 years! KPRC has the best reporters the most detailed reporting and doesn’t leave the viewers wandering as to what the hidden facts of a story may be I find it better than watching the others
34. [R95] KPRC 2 News 3/5 · US Houston: The commercial y’all are running.
35. [R96] KPRC 2 News 1/5 · US Show me the story: When you send a notification I shouldn't have to search for it when I tap on the notification 😡
36. [R107] 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
37. [R108] Houston News from KHOU 11 5/5 · US Hello: I enjoy getting news update on this app.
38. [R109] Houston News from KHOU 11 3/5 · US Vern the Vacuum: Wat too much clickbait
39. [R110] 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.
40. [R56] The Weather Channel 3/5 · US Pop ups: My only complaint is the pop-ups
41. [R60] The Weather Channel 1/5 · US 90% Ads 10% Weather. Going back to Apple weather.: Absolutely horrible now. If you love endless adds taking up half the screen and popping up full screen forcing you to watch, then this is the app for you. It’s gotten so bad now that I’m going back to Apple weather. It chews up your data n sits there loading ads before everything shows up (so if you have minimal service, it takes forever beca
42. [R62] The Weather Channel 3/5 · US If not for the adds: Love the app. Hate the billboard size ads that pop up every time I touch anything. It’s super annoying.
