Switching.....

The new update offers nothing new or better as far as the UI or ease of navigation. The ads still sit at the bottom taking up space and are very distracting. WSB is very good at sending alerts, but outside of that, the other local news apps are much better.
Too buggy

Several issues I've noticed. There are far too many notifications. So many that I've simple turned them all off. Second issue I've noticed is that you can't email issues to them from the app unless you use Apple mail. For those of us that use another email client, the app just errors and tells us to setup at least one email address. Be smart enough to launch other email apps, or simply put the message form within the app itself, bypassing our local mail client entirely.
Slow, too many ads

The app is frustrating to use. The stories are slow to load, there are too many ads. Come on WSB, are all those ads really needed????
Latest Version chewing up battery life

Yesterday my iPad was in sleep mode most of the day and when I awoke it to check something my battery was at 14% and I recharged it. Today I powered up the iPad which was at 100%, and within a few minutes it was down to 96%. I checked battery and it attributed 100% of battery use was due to this app. I have deleted this app until they fix the problem.
Annoying ads
James Sumners
1 star because the constantly moving and at the bottom of articles makes it extremely difficult to focus on the actual content.
Bad formatting of some stories

Some of the stories do not format properly for my iPhone screen. About 1/3 of the text is not visible on the left edge. Don’t remember having that problem in the past. Maybe a bad update?
“Animated” or moving ads
Unhappy 68
I have epilepsy. These ads make me nauseous and could potentially cause a seizure. I previously complained and they were stopped. Now they are back. Please stop or I will be unable to use this app Also, the same articles often remain posted for weeks, making them “old news” ***** You are STILL showing moving ads that 1) make me nauseous 2) interfer with my ability to read the news ******* STOP ADS THAT MOVE!!
It’s decent
TCS(813/727)
This app is a fairly decent way to access WSBTV on the go. The only problems I have with it is 1. Some ads freeze and you have to restart the video player to watch, 2. When watching video clips from the video page for some reason the video player glitches and gets stuck in portrait mode in the middle of the videos page and doesn’t go full screen. It just sits in the middle of the screen between the other videos and plays. You have to back out of the videos section and try again, and 3. (This is a new one) all videos play with closed captioning even if it’s turned off. This is very annoying and aggravating. I hope they fix it quickly. Other than these issues it’s a good app to get your WSB fix.
