  • Good but...

    Everything that comes through is not truly breaking news. Someone in Hollywood getting divorced is not breaking news. Also, lately while looking at a news story this Google sweepstakes pops up and there is no way to get rid of it. You have to tap the back arrow in the upper left hand corner and then you lose the story you were reading. This is the only app on my iPhone 8S it happens on.

  • Fake you’ve won a prize adds popping up

    Anytime you try to read an article fake ads pop up in the app saying congratulations you’ve won a prize, these are fake ads and just a way for scammers to get your information because you have to submit your information to claim prizes or sign up for things, I should be spammed with ads when reading news articles from what’s suppose to be a reputable news station! Remove the fake you’ve won a prize ads from this app! It’s a scam!

  • Okay but this needs improvement

    Grey app, but in the “make a suggestion” at the bottom of the stories. It doesn’t let you do so. When I go in, I type out my suggestion. And then nothing.... I can’t input my email, or even go back. I have to close out the app entirely. And it still won’t let me make a suggestion.
  • Fox Eight news

    I love this app it lets me know things as soon as they know Such as amber alerts and weather changes and local shootings and what is happening in our area. I also watch Fox eight every morning I feel like the broadcasters are family.
  • Not the best news app I’ve seen

    The news updates are overall pretty decent, but I absolutely cannot stand the blatant spamming and incessant ads. I honestly have gotten to the point where I just check out the notifications and find the actual news elsewhere.
  • Absurd

    I think it’s absurd that I want to see the face of a violent sex offender loose in our neighborhood and the only picture you have is in a video. So now, just to see who this guy is, I am forced to click on a video and watch a 30 second car clip with dancing bears. I finally get to the end and the clip closes just to have to do it all over again. Priorities. I should have to watch 30 second of ads for a 5 second video. Priorities. Do you even look at the ads that are at the bottom of your articles? I thought you were better than that Fox 8. If you want to

  • Please fix the notifications.

    Overall a good app however I had to turn my notifications off. I don’t need to know that somebody is being arrested in a city 50 miles away. Seriously, out of an average of 7 push notifications daily, 1 of them pertained to me.
  • Love it when it works

    This app is my buddy when I am getting ready for work, but it is the most frustrating app ever. It is constantly stopping on its own...you constantly have to keep hitting the play button. I counted at least 30 times one morning. It will also shut down on its own and of course you have to endure the commercials every time you start back up. If there was another Cleveland station I would watch, I would, just so I wouldn’t have to start my day so annoyed. Please fix this!!!!

  • App closes without prompting

    I love the Fox News app but for the past few weeks, the app will close and send me back to my home screen. It is very frustrating to have to scroll through previously read information, pick up where I left off only to have it happen again a few minutes later.
  • Too many alerts

    Fox 8 is my favorite local news station, but I get too many notifications. Too many “breaking news” badges and notifications. I would like to see local news, but not if it’s going to clog up my screen with every update that happens around the entire city.

    Would be nice if we could personalize it beyond just sports and breaking news. Maybe there could be options like local sports, events, happenings, weather, and traffic....
