To add to that you can’t find it. There still are stories from late 2023 and early 2024. I am going to start using NBC. ### 1/5 — To many ads cause lack of load *2024-07-03* The information on the website is great but it literally takes four minutes to load the interactive radar follow-up to sports and additional information. One last comment is the website had on it for several days an image of a tennis player that was clearly not Coco Gauff it was a white woman Coco is definitely a diverse beautiful individual ### 2/5 — Do you even read the articles you post? *2026-06-16* So you guys just posted an article covering the Wisconsin Badgers women’s hockey team winning the 2026 national championship. It’s from the AP, and it said that a winning goal was scored in the 3rd quarter over the defending national champion Ohio State buckeyes. Well, there are no quarters in hockey! And the defending national champion is not Ohio State, the defending national champion is Wisconsin. Do you guys even read the articles, and check them for accuracy, before posting them on your app? Missing words in stories, getting the most basic language rules wrong (singular v plural…really?!), etc. That’s pretty sad. Oh, and now the app hijacks your phone with a full page ad when you click on to read your very first article. Not only that, your app is LITTERED with ads showing naked, morbidly obese stomachs. It’s disgusting. Knock it off! Get your act together. ### 2/5 — Do you even read the articles you post? *2026-05-13, version 3.1* So you guys just posted an article covering the Wisconsin Badgers women’s hockey team winning the 2026 national championship.

Seriously?! *2025-05-07, version 2.2* The first thing that pops up when opening up your app is a full screen ad for the Chippendale’s male strippers?! Seriously?! Do you people have no common sense at all? How is someone supposed to take your news app seriously after seeing that?! ### 2/5 — Hijacking Ads *2024-07-06* The pop-up ads are very difficult to navigate around, and this is done on purpose. Then, they hijack your phone. Unacceptable and shame on you. ### 3/5 — Show gets too playful at times and… *2024-07-02* The people on the show are now color coordinated and lack their own individual personality/look. ### 5/5 — Top team has best LOCAL news n Events *2024-08-24* We are also busy these days it seems and I love this local news station because Alexis. The meteorologist always gives me exactly what I need to know before I go to work or for the weekend and I really like that they cover some of the local stories and everybody on the program does an excellent job, it’s important to know what’s going on in your community and although I know a lot of people want to hear about the politics we can hear about that on the national news. I want to know what’s going on in Madison and they are the best. ## Most praised reviews (1 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — It’s Clean and Fast *2021-09-29* I really like this new app. It’s very clean and the story’s load very fast. I also like that the ads so far has not caused the app to feel bloated. I hope it stay’s like that. 😀 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
