Leave a Review NBC 4 New York
Good
This is a good app, but one bug I’ve noticed with it is that the badge number on the app icon keeps increasing each time I get a notification even though I’ve already cleared the alerts in the alerts section within the app. So for example, if in a day I get 3 notifications the app would display a badge with the number 3 and I’d go and clear out the alerts in the app and the badge number would disappear but then when another notification comes in, the badge would display the number 4 instead of 1. So it acts like I still haven’t cleared out the alerts even though I did.
UPDATE: Latest update to the app fixes the inaccurate badge bug.Show lessNYC718
3 strikes you’re out
After my last review I received a developer’s response saying they updated the issues I had outlined and should be fixed. Nope!
I still get useless notifications like “rain will begin in 27 minutes”. Really? Been raining for hours but hey thanks! Or It will tell me every 20 minutes or so rain is coming and nothing happens at all. Or during storms that have been raging for a while, it will send that something is about to start. Rain/wind/snow doesn’t matter. And there is no way to turn that off. If I get a rare notification I may actually want to see and click on it, it takes me to a totally different part of the app. The old app pre-updated version in 2021 was great. Then they decided to make it new. Since then it has been a disaster. Have been hesitant to delete it outright as storm season is coming up and did give it one more chance but I cannot take the insane inaccuracy of these notifications anymore. The hesitation is now gone.Show lessFarley213
