“Will be back in a moment” ...
Local Lady/22
Sooooo, it’s indeed very frustrating when I receive a hyped-up news alert on my cell phone, only to rush to your news source on your new app, expecting to find this extremely important story there waiting for me, and instead am shown a blank blue logo screen telling me to WAIT for it ( ...and for who knows how long???) And so what started off being of serious interest to me, as something your station clearly suggested was vitally important for me to know immediately, suddenly then becomes a totally annoying waste of time , as the news is not readily available, during my very busy work day. So instead I then need to go elsewhere to find out just what is going on, rather than possibly ending up having to sit and wait for it until it’s then pretty much “old news”... not sure how long that wait generally takes or exactly why this always happens, since I’m long gone immediately! Please find a way around this, by perhaps offering customers the option to actually read what’s vital in that “important news story” IN PRINT instead, at the exact time your station notifies us of something perhaps catastrophic... In my opinion, I’d much rather even wait a few minutes to receive your news notifications through your app, until your station is actually ready to broadcast your video, when the most important particulars we are all looking to know are immediately available to inform us. And sadly, by not having your “breaking news information” readily in place for us at the very moment you send out your notifications, you are often forcing those who feel like I do, to look for our most important “immediate local news” elsewhere... and for sure that’s not your intended outcome! And as a side note, another suggestion that might be helpful is to come up with some sort of easily recognizable “scale of importance” for these numerous notifications ... one that could in some way “rate” for us, all these continual news alerts by exactly which are “earth shattering, life or death stories we really really need to be aware of that split second” versus the less urgent news we could choose to read after, such as about a fender bender with no injuries, or exactly what went on at a school committee meeting, for example... unarguably both important to some in their own way, though not what all customers need to focus on first in your notification lineup, and at that exact moment. A rating system could definitely help sort out what is happening that’s highly important for every customer to be informed of, first and foremost, and could possibly change how overwhelming this notification service can often become. Thanks very much for asking for customer input, and allowing us the chance to voice concerns and offer new ideas to be considered, in order to smooth out the process of keeping us all well-informed.
Pop-up’s on Start-up :-(

I hate the advertisement that always pops up when you open the app. Very annoying.
Awful

One of the worst apps I’ve used! Takes forever to load, video never plays without issue and freezes
Watched 22 news for a few years
old sweet fart
My parents got a tv in 1952. My mother loved John Quill. To this day it is our number one station.

I have grown up with tv 22 all the way back when John Quill was young, and Rollie Jacobs was giving us a great run down of local and national sports

Easy to navigate and great reporters make 22 news essential for daily news updates. Other news stations should get pointers and follow suit.
My one and only news source

Channel 22 News is the only news program for accurate news reporting.
App

Navigation is slow....too many commercials ....before every news item.......really need to reassess your app.
