Needs improvement

Carole_fon

The notifications flash up too quickly to be read. If I’m quick enough to click through, the referenced story is often nowhere to be found.

UX is nice and clean and the weather function is great. I turned push notifications on for alerts regarding weather conditions but there are SO MANY and mostly news stories I’m not interested in. The app should allow users to select what categories they’d like to receive notifications from. I read under notifications that they promise not to send “too many” and I laughed out loud. I received an average of 2/hr yesterday! Update to allow customization and this definitely becomes a 4 Star app!

WJLA app for iPhones

Looks great, but I cannot get ANY sound. No place to unmute if that is the issue. Other local station apps do have sound so phone volume is at working level. I deleted app and reinstalled but still have no audio. My husband downloaded app to his (same version)IPHONE and it has audio. My audio works fine for all other functions. Would like to be able to view in landscape mode.

If you have an iPhone X don’t open pictures

I believe you guys need to fix this serious problem. If you open a picture and you are on an iPhone X, the close picture icon is put so high up on the right hand corner of the screen that it interferes with the battery icon and you cannot close the pictures. You literally have to close the app and reopen it. FIX THIS

Push Notifications don’t work

Notifications don’t open to story being advertised. Takes you to home page and you still can’t find the initial headline.

Wth? I’m not going to buy an app for a news station

No Screen Rotation

I looked for an option in settings and in your app that would enable switching the view on your app to rotate the screen between portrait and landscape, and I couldn’t find anything. Am I missing something? If not, and you are taking suggestions on how to improve this app, it needs to be updated to enable viewing both ways. All of the other news apps I use are able to do that, and for that reason I hardly ever look at yours. If there is a way to do that can you let me know how to do it? Thanks.

Horrible

I have no clue who determined that this update was a good idea but they clearly are simple. This app is being deleted and I will be using another source. I cannot watch videos at work so when I want to read about something I used this app until the latest update jacked it up.

What were they thinking?

Please bring back the last version. This app is just unusable.

Terrible

New version is awful, too many videos and can't get articles to load.
