It would be good if I could increase the size using my index finger and thumb ### 5/5 — Love *2020-03-15, version 6.30* Great App. As someone that can’t sit through the news I love being able to scroll through and see what is happening in my state ### 1/5 — Don’t Bother. Worst News App Ever. *2020-02-24, version 6.25* Hey guys, you’re not the New York Times. We’re not paying for your substandard news app. What a joke. Since you’ve disabled your old app, I guess we’re done with your news for good. ### 1/5 — Hilarious *2020-02-18, version 6.25* Paid subscription? Yeah, no thanks. I’ll be removing the app altogether. ### 1/5 — Terrible *2020-02-16, version 6.25* App won’t update. I’m deleting this and going back to WRIC news 8. ### 1/5 — Awful *2020-02-10, version 6.25* The app does not update it’s a mess. The developer Took CBS6 for a ride. Sad! ### 1/5 — Never updates *2020-02-10, version 6.25* This new app hasn’t changed news content since the day it was released (last Monday). Please give us the old app back, so we can track our favorite news station. (Using iPhone 11 Pro Max) ### 2/5 — Not a good change *2020-02-06, version 6.25* The radar map is not very good and I can’t find the forecast radar, I wonder if that is part of the “premium subscription “. Old weather site was much better. ### 1/5 — Worse than ever *2020-02-06, version 6.25* Now with even more clickbait "promoted stories." Apparently the idea this is supposed to be used for news, weather and that sort of thing has become lost in whoever thought more crap and less content was a good idea. Bad content, bad design = bad idea. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — CBS kised the ring so they're out *2026-01-03, version 7.11* National CBS has decided it'S better to appease our fake king than report actual news, so this local app is poisonous fruits as far as i'm concerned. Deleted! ### 1/5 — Please just report the news *2024-11-04, version 7.7* As we wind closer to the election, articles are getting more and more biased. I removed other local news apps and kept this one originally as CBS 6 just reported news. This has gradually shifted away from reporting to clickbait titles and clearly biased writing. It’s a shame. Deleting this app now as well. ### 1/5 — This app has gotten too biased *2024-10-29* CBS 6 app has gotten too biased. The neighborhood and community news are ok, but as an independent, I’d like to see more facts and less biased news. For example, two headlines are, “Harris rallies Philadelphia voters at church, barbershop, bookstore and more”, and “Trump Madison Square Garden Event begins with crude jokes and dismissal of critics”. We know Trump also went to the Bronx, a black barber shop, a Chick-fil-A, and McDonald’s. We also know Harris had comedians with racist jokes, spreads misinformation/non-truths at her rallies, and pays celebrities to try to get more votes from celebrity worshippers. Please go back to more unbiased reporting so you can be real “news” again. ### 1/5 — Please fix *2024-04-27, version 7.5* Can’t read stories. Only get a video with about a half inch bar at bottom of screen to see text. Please fix. Used to be a good app. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work right anymore *2023-01-30, version 6.43* As of the current version, None of the top button work, (back,share, bookmark, etc). iPhone 14pro Max running 16.2. Terrible update - don’t install!!!! All other app are ok - just not this one. ### 1/5 — Hi Folks! Joe Namath and JU ads driving us all crazy! *2022-06-06, version 6.43* When will you stop them?! ### 1/5 — NO PAID SUBSCRIPTION *2021-04-09, version 6.35* DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME. Click bait, large ads, and the frequent pop-up subscription begging make this a no go. Delete and use a different channel now. Your old app was so much better! ### 1/5 — No good *2020-09-18, version 6.32* You get about 30 seconds of weather or traffic then all you get is a cbs logo and annoying music for what seems to be 4 or 5 minutes. Not enough content to be informative. Not a good app at all. ### 1/5 — This app is pretty terrible *2020-03-23, version 6.30* This app takes over 20 minutes to update with breaking news stories that are visible on the WTVR website. What’s the point in the app if I have to look at the website to feel like I am seeing the latest? ### 1/5 — Even more horrible *2020-02-26, version 6.25* Just when you think an app can’t get worse. The only thing more painful is suffering through the show starting at 4:00 to see something specific and before it comes on the goofy cast makes you turn it off. Delete the app! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Most info of the 3 stations *2023-02-25, version 6.43* I must say, this app has far more stories than those from the other two Richmond stations. Their stories seem to have more depth of information, as well. I don’t have a favorite local newscast, but this app is great. ### 5/5 — Always on top current news CBS-6 *2021-01-15, version 6.33* WTVR-6. Always up to date on on going Breaking news. Keep us informed always. Great reporters in the field and in The studio. My kind of news station Informative, current, always safety for their Journalists. ### 5/5 — News *2020-11-29, version 6.33* Very nice coverage of the news in our area. Thank you so much. ### 5/5 — Channel 6 news CBS *2020-11-09, version 6.32* I love channel 6 news. I grew up watching channel 6. My grandmother would turn it on every morning. I watch it every morning before I go to work. ### 5/5 — CBS6 *2020-09-02, version 6.32* This is my favorite go to news site. You get the whole story; names, addresses, outcomes, etc. So much better than guessing what happened, to whom and where... ### 5/5 — Lots of news! *2020-08-14, version 6.30* Wonderful coverage of all things local! My go to site for staying up to date on Richmond, local and VA news! ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-07-01, version 6.30* Quick and easy to use. Always up to date and also have stories I may have missed during the week. I highly recommend this app for the Richmond area! ### 5/5 — CBS 6 outstanding coverage and user friendly! *2020-04-14, version 6.30* This app provides quick access to everything I need at any time of day. The live feed is clear and allows me to access my morning news wherever I am. Thanks for the upgrade! ### 5/5 — Love this APP *2020-03-26, version 6.30* I love being able to view anytime I want. It’s so easy to navigate. ### 5/5 — Very nice! *2020-03-22, version 6.30* I at first wasn’t sure about the release of this. I originally reviewed it and suggested they add a dark mode because I generally read at night. They responded saying they would pass my suggestion along. Sure enough, now we a dark mode.
