Spam emails
Wombatmatty
Whenever I have this app, I end up getting spam emails to my Apple ID email address about all sorts of JUNK advertising high school sports tickets, etc. The app developer appears to be harvesting my information and sharing it with WRAL so they can ‘engage me.’
Technical Errors, Grammatical Errors

The articles themselves are full of grammatical and syntax errors, but that’s every local media outlet these days. The most annoying thing is the app itself will give an error message almost every day (cannot load) and when I sent a trouble-ticket requesting assistance, WRAL’s tech support told me to delete it and reinstall when that happens. WHEN that happens? Every time? No thanks, I’ll just read the news elsewhere. (And it happens on three different devices with at least two bars-strength signal throughout multiple updates on two providers (AT&T and US Cellular,) so this is not a device-specific issue). The app is fine when it works, just not sure why It’s such a challenge to use. Another concern I can’t seem to get an answer for is why so many news stories click out to B-side news sites that moments into reading a supposed news story, you get a “You’ve won a FREE iPhone, you have 5 minutes to claim it!” pop up. You have to completely close the app, there’s no way to close the pop up. Seems scammy and frankly, a little trashy for WRAL. I’m surprised they associate their site with clickbait like that. And from the list of stories on the main page, there’s really no way to know what’s real news and what’s not. Talk about “fake news.” *eye roll* C’mon, WRAL, you’re better than that.
Good weather but totally liberal in all aspects

Great source for local news and weather but the liberal bs gets old . Every story takes a Democrat perspective.

JUNK notifications
Wombatmatty
Too many notifications about junk. I just got FOUR notifications in 30 seconds about the same thing. Ok. So you’re live on the ground. And then you send a follow up saying sky five is live. And you’re also live here. And you’re also live there. You send way too many notifications about trivial things. I don’t care that so and so will be live at 6 to discuss the upcoming weather for the week. Keep it to important stuff.
Unreliable
Scittyo
Most stories simply won’t load anymore unless on data- doesn’t happen with any other app I use. Kind of a bummer but I’ll be looking for news elsewhere
Awesome news app
