Audio shouldn’t be automatic

I have to turn my volume down in order to use this app (when not by myself.) Then I forget to turn the volume back up.

I should be able to see (read) the news without automatically playing Ads and videos.

Insulting!

Even when phone is in silent mode, opening up the app forces a very loud commercial to play in an attempt to force app users to hear it... how insulting! And if advertisers are willing to pay more to force their advertisements on people, they too are part of the problem and should realize it doesn’t attract people to their brand or product. People often must put their phone in silent mode for very good reasons, but the marketing folks at WESH obviously don’t respect that. Very foolish.

Thank you for your faithful journalism.

Now that I have cut the cord, the only place I can get your news is on my phone. It is more difficult to negotiate but I am working at it. Please continue to pursue the truth.

WESH APP

I find your app to be one of the more reliable news sources. Thank you for your dedication to timely and accurate information. I'm also impressed by the range of your TV News Anchors. The longevity of those like Dan, Claire and Gail is perfectly complimented by Jazmin, Stuart, Meredith, Jim and Stewart. Thank you for building and sustaining the careers of so many. The depth of the reporting is greatly enhanced because of their dedication.

This app is unusable - won’t even open

If you live in the Orlando area and want breaking news alerts without more information this is the app for you!

You will get multiple alerts a day, mostly meaningless spam and the few worth looking into won’t open in the app. Actually the app doesn’t open but has a beautiful loading screen animation that I could stare at for hours while wondering what other information was relevant until I fall asleep.

Overall 0/10 go find another news app for Orlando this one is awful. Despite the garbage app WESH news is reliable.

WESH Weekends

I love WESH and all of the professional staff who bring us the news every day. The only downside is the app on the weekends. The news is not updated and the weather stays on the same day through most weekends. The app is not reliable on weekends. I have to look elsewhere for news and weather.

Current News

Too many times WESH will notify of breaking news. The headline will be about a recent event but the article will be 5 days old. News in the app should be updated more often. You have to check the date to see if you are reading about current events or something written a week ago.

Radar man

I throughly enjoy checking in with your active radar. My wife drives from Titusville to Jacksonville twice a week and with active radar we can see what’s ahead for severe weather if any. It’s very helpful anytime so thanks.

Early Morning News

I moved to NE in early March. As an early riser I would watch Jason Guy and the rest of the morning crew. I was surprised that Amy wasn’t going to be a part of the early weather team. I miss y’all and the excellent reporting WESH has done and continues to do. I’ve got you’re app on my phone so I can see you. The local NBC station has a lot to do to catch up with you. All the best to everyone and here’s hoping the I4 Ultimate is making progress. 😊🇺🇸👋

Too many commercials

When we get notification of a “breaking” story and then open the app we have to sit through sometimes multiple advertisements before finally getting to the story. While I know advertisers help pay for the app service when a story is critical or “breaking” I should not have to sit through so many commercials before getting to it.
