User reviews

Constant notifications

As of a few weeks ago, I’ve been receiving constant notifications about stuff from all over the place. I used to only receive local news alerts, now I’ll wake up to 50-100 notifications from stuff in some rural town in a state two times zones away. This app was always my go to for local news, now there is no way I could recommend this to anyone. There’s also not an option to change the notifications for local news as of now. Really hope they go back to how it was.

Columbus Ohio

Use to love the app I love watch out news when getting ready! But lately it’s been buffing more than showing the news! So I uninstalled it and then installed it back…Let hope this helps!!!!!!!

App no longer works

As of a few weeks ago this app no longer loads on iPhone 16. The logo pops up, then nothing.

Live tv

The live tv portion is slow cuts out and doesn't load quickly. When is the update for this coming?

Don’t waste your time.

They update this news once a week and that’s if you’re lucky. Just get another news app cause the stuff on here is old news. Like really old.
