### 2/5 — Poorly Written

*2025-09-23, version 217.1*

News articles are poorly written and usually contain multiple grammatical errors.

### 2/5 — Poor Redesign

*2023-02-22, version 134.0*

This new layout is awful and there’s no setting to turn off the auto-start on video content. I preferred the previous design of grouping stories by type on the home page, now it’s just random & the featured stories seem an afterthought at the top due to being half the size of other articles. As much as I don’t want to because this news app was my go to for local stories, I’m probably going to delete it & use another local news station instead.

### 2/5 — Ads get stuck

*2021-09-27, version 8.3.4*

Ads get stuck and cannot view the actual news

### 2/5 — Awful app

*2021-08-24, version 8.3.4*

The adds are horrible. I get it that you want to make money on your app, but when it’s breaking news or a weather emergency you NEED to have adds disabled. Unacceptable. The amount of time, even for just minor news updates, that I spend watching adds is awful as well.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work

*2021-06-24, version 8.3.3*

Haven’t been able to open or use this app for the better part of a year. Just keep getting “unable to load” message everytime I try to open the app.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2021-02-03, version 8.1.0*

Absolutely horrible. Never opens up for the live news on time. All you hear is that same music over and over and over while the news started 5 minutes ago. Every single time.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-11-20, version 8.0.0*

This app has so many ads it’s trying to load that it takes forever.  I have the fastest WiFi available, it’s not my network.  Glad you’re selling all the ad space.  Hopefully the advertisers see how bad your app runs

### 1/5 — Fake news

*2020-11-09, version 8.0.0*

Vf

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work now

*2020-09-19, version 7.6.1*

Been using this app for a long time now all of a sudden that last 2 weeks doesn’t work on my iPhone at all. Just sits there loading circle spinning won’t load.

### 1/5 — Fails on Apple TV

*2020-08-07, version 7.5.0*

This app fails too much on Apple TV, and stays for days like that. I deleted and installed it again, same thing. Disappointed

### 1/5 — Pretty racist tbh

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Poorly Written Articles

*2024-08-31, version 135.0.1*

News articles are poorly written and usually contain multiple grammatical errors.

### 1/5 — No good

*2023-12-19, version 135.0.1*

Terrible since the last update. I deleted it then.

Not any better now. The same headlines for days. No new stories. Mostly the same story repackaged thru out the main screen. 

Terrible. Go ahead download, you’ll see what I’m talking about. Leave a review. Maybe they will fire whoever is dropping the ball.

### 1/5 — No good

*2023-06-05*

Terrible since the last update. 
I deleted it then. Still waiting for them to redo the main screen. The old version was a lot better in my opinion. Easer to navigate. Now it’s just all jumbled up on the screen and hurts my eyes.

### 1/5 — New Format

*2023-03-28, version 135.0.1*

The new format is really hard to follow. I miss the old format which I felt had relevance. Yesterday there was nothing pushed about the shooting in Nashville. I will be switching to one of the other local news stations to get current coverage. Whoever designed this needs to re-think it!

### 1/5 — Ehhh

*2023-02-27, version 134.0*

Since the update to scroll, I’ve been really disappointed. Can’t tell if it’s the app or the content but it just doesn’t flow at all. I’m looking else where for a news app or I’m gonna have to go to the actual website……but then what’s the app for then????

### 1/5 — Not working

*2023-02-17, version 8.6.1*

This app has not been working for the last couple of days.  No news stories will load up, and when I click on local news it says an error has occurred, please try again later. If I remember correctly this is day three of it not working.

### 1/5 — App not working

*2023-02-17, version 8.6.1*

This app hasn’t been working for 3 days now. Why is that?!?!

### 1/5 — Blocking stories.

*2023-02-01, version 8.6.1*

I get notifications for stories and when I get on the site I get blocked half way through the story.

### 1/5 — Review

*2022-07-01, version 8.5.2*

When breaking news comes across my phone and I tap on it, it never takes me to that news. Usually, I can't even find that news article. I finally quit tapping on the article.

### 1/5 — New update crashes

*2022-01-16, version 8.4.4*

Just updated this app. Now it won’t open. Crashes every time. Disappointed.

### 5/5 — App issue appears resolved

*2023-02-20, version 134.0*

The app previously wasn’t loading content. However, today the app has a refreshed look and content is abound with a better format.  Thank you for updating the app.

### 5/5 — Fox 23

*2022-10-16, version 8.6.1*

Always up to date and informative

### 5/5 — Best early local news

*2022-08-17, version 8.6.1*

Fox 23 transmits best local news for Tulsa and surrounding area!

### 5/5 — Way to go y’all

*2022-04-04, version 8.5*

I can always count on this station for updates for everything. Thanks FOX23

### 5/5 — Down Hill

*2021-10-13, version 8.3.4*

I only gave you a one star because it won’t let me give you zero stars. I will tell you why “in about 10 minutes”

### 5/5 — Fox News is the best

*2021-10-11, version 8.3.4*

FOX23 is the best news station there is

### 5/5 — Fox 23

*2020-06-21, version 7.1.0*

Good coverage of Presidential visit.  We would like less commercials before each news event.

### 5/5 — Absolutely the best!

*2020-06-18, version 7.1.0*

The best newscast in town! Clay Loney keeps it
That way ! Clay Loney took the time to investigate Bill and Lisa Wooley and gave them fair interviews where they could defend their position and tell someone from the media their story. All the other newscast just trashed the Wooley‘s. But Clay took the time to investigate, talk to them. Thank you Clay!   That’s true journalism.

### 5/5 — Love the station

*2020-02-28, version 7.0.2*

Enjoy reading the news on FOX because the reporters have a better idea of what information the reader wants/needs from the article. FOX does suffer the same issue as all the stations and that is of poor to no proofreading though. Spelling, grammar and quotes inaccurate. For example, a witness quoted as saying “I saw they’re car.” when the witness really said “I saw their car.”.

### 5/5 — Push notifications

*2016-11-02, version 5.3.3*

I love the app for what it is and appreciate all the hard work and effort that has gone into it.  My only frustration is that when you click on a push notification that has just been sent out, the link is usually nowhere on the app to the article!  That or it'll take you to a live feed that's on something completely different.
