1. [R2] WXYZ 7 News Detroit 4/5 · US Live stream window: I really like the app. But it would be better if the live stream video could run in a pop out window instead of having to keep the full app or browser page open to watch/listen. Then I can answer text messages etc.
2. [R11] WXYZ 7 News Detroit 5/5 · US News: We watch the news and watch for the weather on the phone it is great and everybody was great so please keep it up everything is great And it worth to keep in the know.All the people Tune in for weather.Plus all the people are great
3. [R61] CBS News 2/5 · US No dark mode is an example of how behind it is. STILL!: Needs to catch up on a lot of basic missing features in 2021.
4. [R64] CBS News 1/5 · US App breaks daily: Constant buffering and crashes. Even after upgrading my internet, this app is practically unusable. It constantly loses connection and dies, especially on my Apple TV. Highly disappointed
5. [R5] WXYZ 7 News Detroit 5/5 · US Excellent App: Easy to use and works great.
6. [R12] WXYZ 7 News Detroit 3/5 · US Ups and downs: Was good then went downhill. Then some improvements came... now the app crashes during opening after the last update
7. [R72] CBS News 3/5 · US Gone downhill: I used to be able to read an article in full. With recent updates, the video player seems to cause the feed for the article to stop refreshing. Have to back out of the app multiple time just to complete one article now and my phone starts to overheat.
8. [R29] WXYZ 7 News Detroit 1/5 · US App updated: The app was updated today to the new version but now it won’t open up just loaded the WXYZ/abc logos and then closes. Need to get a fix for this asap. I have had the app since it came out and has been great till today 10/25/2023. I hope they are working on the fix right now.
9. [R70] CBS News 2/5 · US Pages not fully loading: Many of the pages are only partially loading. Typically the starting pages load but the last half doesn’t load leaving a blank screen as I scroll through the article

12. [R66] CBS News 3/5 · US Fair App: Fair at best, gets stuck a lot, no way to turn off stories with a blank black screen. Keeps ads going and can’t shut off.
13. [R120] CBS News 2/5 · US Way Too Many Commercials: The number of commercials you have to watch to see any real news is just unbelievable. Truly.
14. [R4] WXYZ 7 News Detroit 1/5 · US Notification issue!: I toggled/signed up for only sports notifications but I get all types of notifications. Please fix asap!!
15. [R19] WXYZ 7 News Detroit 1/5 · US Don't use it for the weather: I have used this app for YEARS. Since Feb that weather tabs on the link hardly work. I emailed the tech dept. and they had me delete it and redownload it. It worked for a little bit and then would glitch out on me. I emailed them again and they told me to pull down so it can refresh. I have done that, even before I deleted the old app. It doesn't work and it sti
16. [R116] CBS News 2/5 · US Where is the sound on the local links?: I pressed the link to go to local Boston news. I see the video people talking, but I hear no sound.
