  • This app is truly exceptional.

    This app has the greatest information the world has to offer, including the ability to locate real-time news as it is happening. I personally enjoy the saved items feature as it helps me re-read articles I have saved.

    Thanks ABC!
  • All the news & weather as it happens.

    Weather alerts are very helpful. As I’m retired, I schedule whatever events I can when there are no storms in the area as my Sweet Pea is afraid of storms. The traffic reports are helpful, especially the options for alternative routes. I like the news alerts also. It’s great to be informed of the days happenings.

  • Used to be great

    This app worked one day and now it doesn’t even open I just deleted it off my phone because it went from being a five star app to not even working and the worst thing is I can’t even open the abc website on my phone without being brought to the App Store. I don’t know how an app can go from being one of the best news apps to not even being functional but they did it and they did that excellent precision. I am really disappointed in this app.

  • New App is awful

    The new news app is kludgy to use. No style and I have lost interest in what was the best news reporting. I still revisit the old version hoping to see that it has been fixed...unfortunately, it still does not show a video and the blank video holders just keep trying to connect.

    Also, the new app appears to have been assembled by website builders from days gone by. Are used to brag about ABC News. It is something I cannot do any longer

  • ABC NEWS!

    The updated app doesn’t have the ability to set a local weather for a particular location such as Miami for example. Other then that the app does what the old app did with a few more features. The old app was just fine. It does however use a large amount of data which needs correcting. I just wish it would be corrected soon. The old app was much better than this one. I will continue to use the old one. Also this update is much bigger than this one.

  • Okay but glitches/network error messages

    This app is OK but could have so much more potential if it didn’t crash all the time and give me glitch messages about how the network was not working even though I have strong Wi-Fi and cellular. I like that I can at least get push notifications about stories and certain topics I care about, as well as breaking news. Please fix the homepage so I can read stories that are posted because every time I try to click on one it doesn’t open and gives me error message.

  • Latest update invasive with ads.

    The current incarnation has invasive video ads mid article that auto play with the sound ON! The sound doesn’t turn off even when you click on the mute link or if the sound link is already muted. The videos play even if you have auto play toggled off in the settings. So you are forced to watch the whole video, with the sound on, even if you are only reading the article. So everyone around you, in the library, in the coffee shop, in bed still asleep next to you early in morning are all disturbed by the sound of these annoying ads.
