When the weather forecast is put on the screen, it seems that The Pee Dee gets only a few seconds flashed up there. Then Horry County ( beaches mainly) get all the attention. There are good things happening in our county but we are ignored! ### 2/5 — Poorly Designed For News App *2019-11-14, version 40.34.260050008* This News App is poorly designed. One is not able to view news in a easy visual format . Everything is hidden under headings so you are forced to drill down under each heading which are not clearly defined. Suggest the designer look at other News App’s to see how to this one more visual for users to “want too” read the news article. ### 4/5 — Hurricane *2019-09-05, version 40.33.530045698* Please, please quit with the hurricane coverage, can only talk so much. Please go back to regular programming. ### 5/5 — Excellent *2018-09-12, version 40.30.410039396* We like that it keeps us up to date on what’s happening. ### 2/5 — World Cup Soccer *2018-06-17, version 40.29.630037524* The biggest sporting event in the world gets bottom billing on your sportscast today. ### 5/5 — WBTW NEWS 13 *2018-05-13, version 14.24.00035507* This is where I go to find out about the local news. I don’t get The Sun News, so this TV station is the next best for what’s going on in most of Horry County. What I don’t like about TV13, is that they pay more attention to parts of North Carolina instead of focusing just on Florence/Myrtle Beach and surrounding areas in our County. ### 5/5 — Keeps me in the know of what's going on in Horry *2018-04-26, version 14.24.00035507* We the ap and I know what is happening where we live. ### 4/5 — News *2018-04-24, version 14.24.00035507* Moved here five years and always watch WBTW. Turn on first thing in the morning and see Marla for the weather. News men and woman are always up beat. One thing that up sets me is all the attorney ads. ### 5/5 — Keeps me up with my home *2018-04-16, version 14.24.00035507* Now that I can no longer get WMBF on cable or air antenna, this app is very useful and I really appreciate having this access. Please continue to offer this service. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2021-09-20, version 41.5.0* The latest version is not working properly - please fix- app is locking up after selecting an article. Great App before this version ### 1/5 — No article *2021-02-17, version 40.35.570057140* I get a notification about a news article and then when I try to open it “article not available” pops up ### 1/5 — Notifications *2021-01-15, version 40.35.570057140* Wish there was a setting to stop getting updates that have Joe Biden in them... I hate #PedoJoeBiden ### 1/5 — Stream Not Working *2020-10-24, version 40.35.570057140* Stream hasn’t been working for the last several weeks! ### 1/5 — Sorry CBS station *2020-02-16, version 40.34.380050609* Why do you stop people from watching the CBS national news just to show us that ugly weather girl??!?? ### 1/5 — WBTW *2018-12-26, version 40.30.410039396* T V 13 had its roots in Florence and for a long Time was the go to station ... but now even though over half of its coverage area and population is outside of the beach area... we get very little coverage... it’s now nothing but a beach station...example ... Beach Ball Tournament...was announced as the biggest on the east coast ... we all know attendance is always very low... even the video spot shows small stands that were almost empty ... the 33 rd PEPSI Classic starts tomorrow at the Florence Center which holds over 7500 and is attended by thousands ... TV 13 sports did not even mention it.... TV 13 you need to do better than claim the part as best coverage ... ### 1/5 — Ad’s *2018-08-17, version 40.30.410039396* The pop up that populated each time you open the app is very annoying. ### 1/5 — Can’t Trust Alerts! *2018-05-14, version 14.24.00035507* I keep getting severe weather alerts for a location 400 miles away that I have never visited. On my location and alert settings, my correct location is the only location. This is a daily occurrence. Very annoying! ### 1/5 — Change isn't always good *2017-09-11, version 14.24.21* The old app was perfect. Everything was on one page and you could browse the important headlines easily. The new app has only a few article titles available at one time. It takes too long to see what is available. ### 1/5 — Push notifications *2015-02-26, version 4.11.5* I never receive any push notifications unlike WMBF and WPDE. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — News ———Weather *2020-09-14, version 40.35.480056579* I like ch. 13. It keep s you updated on everything. They tell you when and where something is going to take place and what is going on around you. I need my Alerts a little faster. Y’all are the BEST ### 5/5 — Great news coverage and weather advisory *2020-06-26, version 40.35.340053438* Mature newscasters and very neutral concerning their personal political views - this is why I switched from another channel to this one - just report the news with as many facts - not personal assumptions - as possible for each item of importance to our community’s - that’s about all I can say - this news channel and news casters and weather advisors are great. ### 5/5 — I love this 13 app. Keeps me up with what’s going on. *2020-04-07, version 40.35.290053040* I love it.it keeps me up with what going on. ### 5/5 — Miss you in NC *2020-01-13, version 40.34.260050008* Wish we were still able to receive your broadcasts just over the NC border in Calabash. Your information is so much more valuable than what we’re getting now out of Wilmington! ### 5/5 — WMBF *2019-09-21, version 40.33.550047244* This website is awesome and important.com ### 5/5 — I’m loving WBTW 13 *2019-06-11, version 40.33.400044647* I’m overly glad to have updated factual instant alerts that WBTW staff/team keeps me instantly informed of the latest news even ahead of the scheduled on air news cast especially the potential threatening heat wave and various surprises with the weather also preparing how to dress keep me aware of the news current headlines comedic yet professional crew I love this family friendly news station you truly earned my respect ### 5/5 — Go news *2019-01-02, version 40.30.410039396* WBTW is my go to spot for news and weather in Myrtle Beach. First place I look in The Morning & the Last place I look at Night. ### 5/5 — Review *2018-09-19, version 40.30.410039396* Love wbtw news! ### 5/5 — Hurricane Florence *2018-09-17, version 40.30.410039396* Great coverage for Hurricane Florence!!
