• Breaking news alerts and stories
• Live streaming
• New weather section with hourly and daily forecasts
• Live weather radar and traffic information
• Completely overhauled app that is faster and easier to use
After the update the weather radar is pretty useless since half the screen is permanently covered by an ad. Also, why is 90% of news Columbia related? So much is not covered regarding actual local news, such as the Jays homecoming parade.
I like it cause it has the news from my hometown area, since I work on the road a lot I can catch up in a quick minute with all headlines
... updates (particularly to the featured news stories) seem to be irregular, at best. For example, at the time of this review (June 17), all of the featured stories appear to be from June 13 (credit union robbery in CoMo, SWAT situation in JC, etc). I tried refreshing the app but the stories remained the same. Any suggestions?
This app constantly goes back to the home page when I'm in the middle of reading a news story. If it doesn't go back to the home page it automatically scrolls to the top of the news story page! Very frustrating!! Happy this app was free
Only problem I have with the app is when I am in the middle of the paragraph (or page), it would go back to the beginning of the page every 30 seconds or so and it gets really annoying.
Inconvenient to use, poor set up, and no sports section--or even updates! I wanted to stay connected to my hometown while away at college. No chance I'm keeping this app.
