## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Advertisements

*2019-07-20*

When opening the app an advertisement covers the whole screen. Then goes away.  The advertising is to much and the reason for removing the app. 
Happy advertisement to the all but not for me.

### 1/5 — Useless non that livestream does not work

*2019-01-10*

App was not the best or worst until the livestream stoped working. Now I can get everything else from another station that livestream works and save space on my phone.

### 1/5 — Live newscasts are spotty

*2018-08-28*

3 out of 5 times I attempt to watch I live newscast, I just get ads. No news. Just commercials and promos.

### 2/5 — News section crash

*2014-08-15*

Whenever I go to open the app, I click on the news, waits a few seconds and the app just crashes and closes. I've reset my phone I reinstalled it and have had no luck. (iPhone 5)

### 2/5 — Need to Fix

*2014-01-15*

The app isn't bad other than every time you read a story and go back, it takes you to the top of the stories again.  It's annoying if you want to read stories at the bottom to have to scroll back down and find them again.

### 2/5 — Too slow!

*2013-09-14*

This new app takes way too long to load, even longer than the app it replaced.  Sometimes, it crashes when trying to access live video.   Live video schedule won't load, so you'll just have to guess when there's a live feed.

### 3/5 — Ad space crashes

*2014-08-10*

Need to fix the crashes when ads are blocked by routers.

### 5/5 — Alerts

*2018-11-15*

Much better since there is an option to receive the weather alerts quietly without voice!

### 5/5 — Love the Newsplex!

*2016-03-26*

My favorite stations under one roof and now in pocket with this app! Love the breaking news alerts!

### 5/5 — Great!!

*2013-12-04*

This is a great app!😊 I love it!!❤️❤️ It always keeps me updated on the news😽😻
