Same stories will run for days. These aren’t updated, they’re just repeated. Terrible “local” new coverage.

This app needs a lot more local Fox affiliates!

While I am enjoying the Fox Local app, it does not offer enough local stations for this app. Even the closest stations to me are so far away from where I live and their news is irrelevant me.

How do I turn off personalization pop-ups?

How can I disable the “Personalize FOX LOCAL” pop-ups at the bottom of the app? They’re annoying.
