1. [R2] Spectrum News 5/5 · US Love this!: I like being able to see detailed weather information like the dew point and I like watching the live video feed as well.
2. [R6] Spectrum News 3/5 · US OK News: Slightly Better than fake news and no irritating ads. And you get local weather. The app has a simple clean layout and is a breeze to use. The best I have found. Thanks Spectrum.
3. [R62] WSB-TV News 5/5 · US Excellent Updates: Excellent News Coverage
4. [R65] 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.
5. [R24] Spectrum News 3/5 · US Crashes: When I tap on a notification the app opens and then crashes ( closes) or it freezes now 2/13/25
6. [R63] 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.
7. [R72] WSB-TV News 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.
8. [R19] Spectrum News 1/5 · US Poor Performance: A lot of times you click on a story on the app and the story is not available to watch or read. There are a lot of times you open the app and there aren’t even stories to look at and read.
9. [R53] Spectrum News 2/5 · US Crashes: Good info when working but prone to crash. Often all I can see is headlines and then won’t let me log on
10. [R102] WSB-TV News 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.
11. [R104] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Would be Five Stars if it Didn’t Keep Crashing: I love the WSB app and relied on it for local news and the pollen count, but now the app cannot even open properly. Every time I open the app an error message is thrown saying “App Could Not Be Started: The app could not be started. Please check your network connection and try again.” No matter how many times I press Retry, delete and redownload t
12. [R10] Spectrum News 1/5 · US Too costly: Spectrum costs too much. Spectrum did a software update in the middle of snowstorm leaving people without tv, phone, basically stranded for hours. Little respect for senior citizens
13. [R94] WSB-TV News 2/5 · US Disappointed with WSB: Too many ads! The same news is repeating
14. [R88] 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
15. [R85] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Ads: You post way too many ads and from very aggressive home improvement companies
16. [R100] WSB-TV News 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
17. [R96] WSB-TV News 1/5 · US Too far left for me: They could at least try to be unbiased. But this? Pitiful. Worst in Atlanta.
18. [R112] WSB-TV News 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.
19. [R74] 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.
20. [R93] WSB-TV News 3/5 · US Checking in at home: I have been traveling for a month but I always want to know what’s going on at home while I’m away. I can always depend my my Channel 2 news app to get an update. Even when I’m at home near Atlanta I use the app because my cable service dropped channel 2 But when I need information I use the app on my phone because it’s accurate and current.
