Channel 12 : Great warning info about travel SAFETY!

I retired in 2014 and realized how horrible traffic was on ALL the roadways! FRC EAST was my long time employer of Eastern NC, so I lived in Havelock 3 miles from work and road my bicycle to Cherry Point 95% of the time ! I recently spoke to a NC Highway Patrol Officer up here near Charlotte, NC , where I live now, and he said there are far too many vehicles on the roads now for the highways to handle! Want to know how safe I-95 is? Stay tuned to Channel 12 for great info and updates of the new and existing potholes on I-95

Why don’t you have portrait mode

I gave this app only 2 stars because you can’t
rotate to portrait mode.

Navigation problem

On iPhone 12 Max, the back button for articles is too close to the upper left margin. 80% non-responsive.

Broken App

For the last two days, the iPad app is worthless. When you click on an article, you see nothing but the title again, ad pictures, and black boxes.

Location Services

Why is it that every other app that has weather can lock onto my location, but every time I load up this app to check my forecasts, I have to manually change it from New Bern? It’s getting a tad bit annoying.

I GIVE YOU PERMISSION TO ACCESS MY LOCATION WHILE USING THE APP!

News feed

News feed page is black no images

Too Many Ads

I just tried to read an update on Hurricane Florence between 17 yes 17 ads. I understand having ads but 17! Really?

Needs a couple fixes!

1. No audio with any video.
2. No method to report issues to app support. App support link in the App Store only opens the app. The app itself doesn’t have a support link. No solution found.

App format is great and would rate as 5 stars, but no audio on video playback renders the app useless. I’ll continue to visit the wcti12 website to hear the news stories.

Mobile app

New version of mobile app will only display portrait on iPad.

Update 1/28/2018: New version still will not display landscape on iPad.

Change BAD

Changes to this app aren’t good at all and when you share a story it doesn’t even show what is being shared! I’ll leave it alone until it’s fixed...just a waste of time now!

Terrible

Before the new update app was fine now after the update all of the good qualities of the app are gone. You shouldn't have to scroll through every local article to get to the national articles. Another thing in the weather section you can no longer hit a play button on the radar to see the direction of precipitation. Went from a great app to a terrible one

New Version updated 1/10/18

I do not like the layout and format of the new updated version. It removes the ability to view the site in a landscape view on an iPad. You can only view it in a portrait view. Big step backwards.

The News Leader in Eastern North Carolina

I have followed WCTI12 since my family and I moved to the area in 1991. We became friends with Jan, Skip, Wes, Anna, and Dominic just to name a few. The news has always been factual, fair, and balanced. Skip and Dominic’s weather forecasts were second to none. We have missed WCTI12 since moving back home in 2012.

Outstanding

Outstanding local updates. It seems to be a day or two behind and keeps old news for a long time. But very good app.

Good source for news

Love the staff at News Channel 12- they take seriously " getting the facts right"! Wish I could get Livestream to come in stronger on my phone!

Uh, but

If the morning news person who does traffic and other small news could get through one piece without saying "uh" or "uh, but" I would not be changing the channel. Why does she say that, all the time? It is very annoying to try to listen to!

I hate to watch news

I hate to watch news. I love this app. It allows me to choose the news I want know about.

Great app!

I like it and I'm starting to rely on it.

12 News

Back to five-stars after getting rid of the Bluetooth glitch.

Very informative

We love watching the news on wcti. They report on everything as it's happening if possible. The weather is usually right on point and that really helps when I have to take my elderly mother out. We really appreciate the news teams and what they do.
