### 3/5 — Memorial Day

*2024-05-27*

I did not see any thing about the people who fought, and died in vetnam, why not?

### 3/5 — Weather app

*2020-09-25*

I like the app OK but would like simpler map with lightning strike indicators and wind direction configurations 
The very worst is the Google Adds (in each section approximate 4 to 6).  If you accidentally touch part of one you go to your internet add for that particular insert add and have to fight your way back to the weather. YUK😝

### 5/5 — Love It  ! ! !

*2020-02-11*

Love It  ! ! !

### 4/5 — I cannot even pull up the app after downloading. IAssume this is due to the BS you are

*2019-06-01*

Pulling on TV right now in order to get more money. If you were the only news. Hsnnfl on TV I would quit watching the news and your weather people do nothing big scare people to death. 
What I miss are Paternity & Hot Bench on 44 but they will be picked up by somebody else. 
If Direct TV iOS their prices to keep you I will get god of them!!!😡👿👹🤡

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2016-11-06*

This app looks like it was written by a high schooler. I receive 47,629 push notifications per day, but if you actually click to open the notification, not only does it not take you to the article, you can't even find the article in the list of articles that do not seem to have any type of sorting or filtering. I was scrolling through articles in November and seeing things about the start of the hurricane season. Let's remove outdated and irrelevant articles, and make it so that a push notification actually takes you somewhere.

### 1/5 — Sports tab

*2016-11-05*

The sports tab doesn't work... I have the hardest time looking for local sports on this app.

### 2/5 — Video portion does not work.

*2016-02-24*

Confusing directions for watching videos. Am trying to watch current Oensavola damage from tornado on 2-23-16 but when I load videos, the play arrow does nothing. Videos are in my playlist but cannot get them to play. :-(

### 1/5 — Used to be good; stepped back into the dark ages

*2015-05-29*

Horrible atrocious app that is so pitiful I can not believe this is an nbc affiliate.  Please give us back the old app

### 1/5 — Don't Waste Your Time

*2015-05-17*

This app was pretty bad before the upgrade, but the new upgrade has made it without a doubt the worst news app out there. They must think the user is 6 years old or something because it has been so dumbed down as to be useless. Add to that the fact that the news stories are rarely local and are only updated every three or four days and you have a piece of junk. 
Download their local competitors if you want local news, because these guys just don't get it.

### 1/5 — Seriously!?

*2014-05-30*

Guys really, worst app ever! I just did ANOTHER update for bugs now looking at a Channel 12 app for FL. Did you guys outsource this to a elementary school tech class?
