### 1/5 — Garbage

*2026-04-25*

WILX  redid their app and made it worse. Trying to watch the news; it gives you opposite orientation when you screen share from iphone. Worked right on ipad for a minute then when cc was turned off the sound went away and didn’t come. Watched the WLNS news instead. The old app worked fine.

### 2/5 — Closed caption option

*2026-04-22, version 5.0.3*

Why is cc displaying. I can’t get it to turn off.

### 5/5 — Lansing’s news leader

*2026-04-01*

My go-to app for the best local news and weather in the Lansing, Michigan area.

### 3/5 — Closed caption option

*2026-03-19, version 5.0.2*

Why is cc displaying. I can’t get it to turn off.

### 1/5 — Ads, ads, and more ads.

*2026-03-14*

This used to be a useful ap that i have used for years, but not anymore. News sometimes takes days to update and you have to run a gauntlet of ads for every action now. I’ll be deleting now after tens years of using it.

### 2/5 — WILX News app

*2026-03-13*

I really liked the old format.  I could quickly and easily find what I was looking for.  Now I need to find the department from a drop down menu and then select what subject I want to see. Also the new app shows so much of each article that the letters a small and hard to skim through.

### 1/5 — New Version

*2026-03-05, version 5.0.1*

I definitely prefer the previous version of the app.

### 1/5 — So Many Ads

*2026-02-27, version 4.0.16*

You must watch a 30 second ad when opening the app and an ad for every article you click on. It’s been the same gmc ad for over a year now.

### 1/5 — Can’t even open the app without waiting 30 seconds for an add! Terrible!

*2026-02-24, version 4.0.16*

Not recommended at all, I have much better things to do with my time rather than waste it waiting for a stupid add to run!

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2026-01-31, version 4.0.16*

I love WILX but have come to detest opening their mobile app. 
WAY TO MANY ADS 
that you can’t get out off quick enough. I will likely delete this app and look elsewhere if this persists.
