Have been viewing the app daily since its inception great when it works Also use it for weather. lately it’s been freezing a lot, not scrolling properly and also just sorry don’t know the terminology, stopping midstream and going back to the homepage all after a few min of use or while trying to read an article. It works fine when i first open it but after a few min this is the experience over and over again. Im finding the last few months extremely frustrating for its use. Was hoping the last update was the fix but nope. Cant phone wcvb any longer to inform them or ask questions which is also frustrating
