Reviews

Disappointed
KathyWG

I don't like the new setup at all. I would rather not have stuff popping up at me. It was hyped up so much as being easy but I find it hard to work with.

Love ABC 7 Chicago app!

Having grown up in Northwest Indiana but now living in Central Illinois it’s a great way to keep up with the news where I grew up.

Used to be my go to news app- no longer easy to use - don’t use it anymore - really clumsy design

Not a fan of revised app. Hard to navigate limited news. Go back to previous format

It seems like I get my alerts every couple of days. I can go a few days and the alerts come through and then I notice that I’m not getting them again. I have complained about this before

My News
tony and mona

I’m a 51 year old man who lives in Kenosha, WI, there is only one cable contractor that allows me to receive both Chicago and Milwaukee news stations. I’ve worked in the Chicago area for thirty years now and I’m soon to retire. I’ve been an avid channel seven guy since I was a teenager. I can remember when some of the ABC personalities came from other stations and I also see some of the old ABC personalities on other stations. ABC7CHICAGO is commuted to having the best, the brightest and the most beautiful people that it can find. There’s nothing like waking up to Tracy, Tanya, Roz and Terrell in the mornings. You also have my all time favorite in Judy Psu in the afternoon and I go to sleep with ABC7CHICAGO at ten. Thank you all for always delivering the news the way we can all receive it from people who seem to really care about Chicago and the surrounding areas.
