Redundancy

I don’t usually write reviews but the older app was much better. Being a native Washingtonian I still have the app for that area and Fox5 DC updated first and I hated it. It made me look forward to checking Houston news and glad they hadn’t changed yet. But low and behold they changed to the same design probably the same app designer and I don’t understand why it’s so subpar. As you scroll the same stories repeat over and over again sometime within the same feed. I understand advertisements but why is it the same one each time I click on a different story. I’m sure Dr. Alisha Howard is a wonderful evangelist but personally being non religious it feels like it’s being shoved down my throat. There are usually ads from different business in the town the news centers on. It’s honestly disappointing and I expected better. But that how we mess ourselves up in life when we expect things so it’s really my own personal issue of expectations. I’m working on it though. Expect nothing and accept everything!

Missing Report

Every single time I get an alert on my iPhone for a story, no matter what, even if I click on it immediately, it will open the app and I will never see the story. I assume when I click on the alert that it would bring me to the story. But no. It brings me to the home page and I can never find the story. So I resort to googling and reading the story from a competitor. Thanks.

Where’s Brazoria County???

This app would be better if it had a section for Brazoria County news, like it does for all of the other counties. It also needs more articles. I get more news articles on Facebook than I do from this app.

Weather

Tom thank you when you stay on even when you should be off by 10 am. I take great comfort with you being on air during bad times. You keep me calm. Thank you

Fox 26 news

I am overall pleased with your reporting. Keep with the facts only. You might have a Verify section that lets your followers know if a rumor is real or fake

Great news coverage, but stories get redirected to Safari

Great news coverage but the interface isn’t as smooth as it can be and when you get a push notification about a news article, tapping on it takes you to safari to read the article rather than opening the app itself to read the story. The problem with reading a news story from Fox 26 in Safari is that it is riddled with pop up ads and you can’t read the full story without being interrupted by a random pop up that basically fills up your screen.

Green Eyes Lady

Loving how they are always giving you the updates and so much more news given even when I’m not at home. Thank you very much for your hard work which is very meaningful for me and my families. We so appreciated you all and fabulously well done.

Great App

The only issue I’ve experienced is sometimes when I get a push notification and click on it, it doesn’t take me to the story and it’s nowhere to be found in the news feed. Other than that, great app! Oh and btw, Kaitlyn is soooo cute pregnant!!! I watch every night looking to see if she’s had the baby!!
