Interruptions

I like ch8 news, BUT, I wish you would stop interrupting reg programs to put in something that isn’t important. Especially, when you have regular news coming up in less than 1 hour. The last two times you did that, the other 2 major networks did not interrupt their programs. Please take a hint. Thanks
Please make this better!!

I keep this installed because I read the push notifications or whatever fits on the preview of an article. "Click to open app" does that and only that, opens the app where there is no full story. The first couple of times I did this I tried finding the story but either it wasn't there or I realized I'm expected to watch some live feed. Really very irritating and can obviously be better. If someone is inputting some breaking news story, part of which is available as a preview, than the full story must reside somewhere. Why not on the landing page when you open the app? Look at the CNN app for inspiration.
Swing and a miss

I had to rate according to how quickly it becomes frustrating after opening the app. I get several notifications per day of breaking news stories, and that’s really the most helpful feature of the app. However, when you try to open one of the notifications to read more, the article isn’t there. It just brings you to some video stream that is slow to buffer, and is not talking about the news story it just notified you of. Looking forward to an update that makes the end user experience more enjoyable. If you folks there at 8 paid some company top dollar to create this for you, you were ripped off. If designing this app was your kid’s project in computer class, then it was a great start, kudos to the little ones because its was better than I could make, but it still needs more tweaking to be professional.
Still Terrible
Slow low & wobbly
Finally found out how to prevent this app from dropping 4-6 times during each 6PM news show. I stopped using the app and stream from the wtnh.com website. Can watch the entire show on Apple TV without any dropping.
