Leave a Review ABC7 Chicago News & Weather
New ABC7 News app Layout
The new layout is not as customer friendly as the old layout used to be. The snapshot of each video was larger in size and much easier to see. Also, I was able to open the first article and be able to continuously scroll to the end. Now, I have to open and then close each article to get to the next one. Unless, I’m missing some special settings I can use to change this, I’m very disappointed with this new layout.Show lessGail Ellen Marie
Hard to see on iPhone
When I select the Weather option, many of the temperature features are cut off on my iPhone. I can see the temps but the days aren’t completely visible…the top of words are cut off by the header of the page. Yes, you can figure it out by just the bottom half of the letters but why? If I had a larger screen it might be fine. Development needs to check “views” on a variety of devices before pushing update. Also, why in the weather section, is it always a day behind. Example, under daily option, it has “Today” and “Sat” but today is Saturday. 🤷🏼♀️ The temps are different so…?Show lessMy Hondo
American Broadcast Corporation in Chicago
I avidly streamline, as you probably are aware of, I enjoy how broadcast journalism majors and communication majors spread their wings in the metropolis.
I am curious about the weather maps, and traffic maps. I look forward to viewing a creative image once in a while.
ABC is huge, you must have contracts, that provide the quality and motivation, that keeps us going!

One of the best ABC news apps in the world
Bring back the ABC 7 Alarm clock app for Chicago and New York. I loved those apps. If the alarm clock apps are brought back, bring in more ABC7CHICAGO and ABC7NEWYORK news people for the app. I love how there’s video footage of every news story. There should be a section for UK news and Australia news & other sections for news on other countries. I love how the video is included in every news report.Show lessStorybrooke-Disney
App gets the job done
I can very easily get my local news, traffic and weather radar. They update throughout the day so I can keep up. The traffic info is live.johnfromdowntown
Inconsistent
In the beginning, this app was great. It had excellent content, was timely and informative. Within the last two years, there have been nothing but problems. At times, the app won’t launch at all. The wrong picture is often shown on the posts. Lively commercials are placed before horrible tragedies which is just awful.
Sometimes, when stories are selected, nothing happens or there is no sound or the wrong video is shown. You never know what you will get with the app. I’ve been so frustrated with this app that I’ve avoided it for weeks. It needs some major improvements.Show lessA Great Reason
Stay Informed!
Most of updates are always informative and helpful when I'm lost scrolling! Sometimes you need a little nudge of reality to bring you back to the present!Sara Soda

Great show for Chicago. it’s great to be able to keep up on the news or catch news as it’s happening in Chicago because it’s such a moving city. Great to be able to tune in without it being the regular news times of the day. keep up the good work. I must add that sometimes it seems that your station is rather biased for Republicans for example when Trump was running for president it seems that your station was constantly talking about Benghazi Benghazi Benghazi which really prejudiced Hillary Clinton quite a bit but when it was Trump in the Whitehouse you did not talk enough about what a traitor he was or do it constantly. Thank you.Show lessDJ20202020

Nothing but love for my hometown
I’ve always watched ABC news with my mom growing up in the Gresham area. I remember I used to imagine they were like part of the family because our tv stayed on Channel 7 pretty much all the time so much that I knew everybody’s name easily and when I didn’t see them that day I would ask my mom where is that person at today? I hope they will be back tomorrow. Lol, then my mom will say they’re probably working out on an assignment for the news that day; and I will say ok then they’ll be back tomorrow to tell us about it lol. I still watch ABC news and look forward to seeing all the anchors familiar faces because it reminds me of home sweet home! My mom passed away in 2019 and I have since moved to Iowa with my husband to be closer to our 2 grown children. I love Chicago and I miss being there because it’s my hometown. I love you ABC and I will always keep all of you in my prayers. I enjoy you today just like yesterday! Take care ALL. And thanks for being so personable and professional.Show lesspam greer
