Leave a Review Indianapolis News from 13 WTHR
Bad update
The original app was well organized. You could narrow down on category. This update has no structure on the main screen. You scroll through the top headlines, quick link for traffic, then some categories with the same headlines as above. You should have never linked waze as the traffic provider. The previous traffic was easy to review and was spot on all the time.
I’ll give it a chance, but will probably find a new local news, weather, and traffic app.
Gave it a chance. Not getting any better. Seems the new app is geared towards ads instead of news.
Wish TV 8 has the same setup as the old app.
RTV6 looks very promising as well.Show lessSquantomohairy
Current news is a little slower.
I feel like I get updates and alerts from Fox 59 quite a bit sooner than WTHR.
Also, I know a lot of issues have dominated, but it would help if you inserted a happy or pleasant news story also. I grew up watching the news and told how important it was to keep up with current events. But now it is so depressing, I find myself turning the news off, except for weather as it is so violent and depressing. Nothing is happy or uplifting which would also be nice to hear. I personally feel the negativity of stories is making things more heated and worse.
Maybe report an issue and don’t put so much attention to all the negative do maybe the hatred and violence will die down.
Sorry for me being so negative myself, but your news topics and presentation has changed so much in the last couple of years. I hate to see this and hope some happiness and pleasantries can be added soon.Show lessgfskvxtui
App review
I liked the last app better. I always have a
hard time getting this app to come up,the old and new onepoor'e
Watched for years
I have watched Channel 13 for years and have seen many changes over the years. The weather forecasts are so much better. All of the meteorologists do such a good job. I live in Brownstown in Southern Indiana and enjoy it when they show what is going on in our part of the state.steadfast and loyal
Channel 13
My review is simple I watch WTHR news and I enjoy the reporting of all stories I especially look forward to Miss Longnecker she has really become part of Indianapolis and I have often wondered why she isn’t in the newsroom as an anchor.
Thank you very much

Where are the topics/categories?
What in the world lead you to redesign your app in this way? I would fire the app designers immediately. My mom updated first and said she couldn’t find news topics and I thought she just needed some help. Nope - you actually took them out. No problem - I’ll just search the issue I’m interested in. Nope - you took that out too. Channel 13 used to be my go to for news on my phone but I am deleting the app now. Let me know when you bring back an app that allows me to choose what I want to see.Show lessDeaf Mac User
Bad Idea
I have downloaded the app, but every time I try to use it it tells me to download it again which I cannot do because it’s already downloaded. New is not always better, In other words to use the famous quote “ if it ain’t broke don’t fix it.” Guess I have to go to another channel to get my news. This one is too difficult to maneuver.Show lessCpssm

I do not like this new app as it is difficult to navigate. Typically an update of any kind is intended to be more user friendly. This update is definitely not more user friendly.Kokomo Fan
Terrible in first five minutes
App is already locked up on one page and only had it on my phone for five minutes! If this is supposed to be new and improved you need to explain it to me!I guess I’ll have to take it off and start looking at a different news stationGamegal56
Sorry but after years I’m gone
WTHR has always been my favorite station, nd I e used the old app frequently every day. The new one has no logic to it, too many huge ads spread through the content, and doesn’t do it for so done like me who checks several times daily to catch up on news. I hate to say it but I’m loading another local station’s app so I really can follow Indy news. And why when I am reading news does the tab I do stir at bottom show me in weather? So sorry but too much hassle to dig through.Show lessSnarkshift
