Work weekends? No!
The news stories for Friday evening through Sunday evening are not posted until Monday. Aliens could invade on Saturday afternoon and this app wouldn’t tell you until it was old news.
Deader than a hammer
App frozen as of 5/31/2024
Distraction and Clickbait
This app is similar to their live news. It distracts people from Springfield crime, controversy, and issues by presenting negative news from surrounding communities. There is also ridiculous “clickbait” stories that apparently must help pay this app’s bills.
App needs update!
App is poor quality. Has all the local news you need and want however navigating the app and videos is bad enough to not use it.
Useless
Just installed to track local news and it did nothing except say to refresh it. What a waste of time.
Not current
I just opened it on Sunday 10 pm. The headlines were all from Wednesday. Four day old news has no possible value to me.
Constant crashes
*****CODE RED ALERT*****
Access to local news ceases to exist bc latest app crashes before newsfeed loads.
Guess I shouldn’t expect a useful app from a company willing to terminate their best employees.

WICS Ch 20 is CODE DEAD
Delete the news and their weather apps. Email and call all advertisers to advise them to pull any ad $$$. Show them the viewers are behind Joe Crain and his objective criticism of their asinine CODE RED weather alerts. Tell the advertisers to move to WAND and WCIA as that is were the viewers are going in protest.

Suggestion
Love the app but can I make a suggestion? Add landscape viewing mode for use on iPad. Thanks!!
Spammy at best
Every single time I try to look at anything on this app, I get a pop up about winning a free phone. Such a lovely gesture... I’ll use the new phone to look at ANY news app besides this one.
Won't work with<10 iOS
I have an older iPad and iPod and the current version work on either. Both devices are 9.x.x iOS and can't upgrade to 10.x.x.
Response from developer
Hi - Sorry to read about the issues that you are experiencing. I am running an older version of an iPad (with iOS 9.x) myself and am not experiencing any issues. Please delete your current app and reinstall and let me know how that works for you. Thanks, Jeff
Best local news app
It's quite amazing how nice this app looks for a small town news station. I will definitely be getting my news from you since you made such a good effort on your iPhone app.
Average News without headache
And by "headache", I mean the migraine that I get from listening to the worst news group in the history of morning shows! Nasally dumb female that stumbles on her words (how did she pass a voice test?). And the most annoying, goofy and dorky looking weather guy with no speech abilities... He mispronounces 1 out of every 5 words! This morning news team is like the "Home for Broken Toys!"
This app keeps me from having to look at or listen to these imbeciles... So.., 3 star app. Worth it.

Rarely loads -crashes often
When the app does not crash, it is set up well with good icons. However, 75% of the time, it crashes before it even opens.
Great
Awesome app helps so much!
Fabulous meatballs
“This is my great aunt Hazel's recipe. They are the absolute best meatballs ever. You MUST try them....” I'm so super cereal right now
Needs improvement.
I like the idea of having a local news app available, but It is very plain and the UI needs to reflect ios7. When the scrolling menu appears at the bottom just above the picture buttons, you can only see the top of the options. Again, maybe look into revamping the UI and maybe I will download and try again.

Doesn't load
Not too great before but worse now. It hasn't loaded since the last update. Maybe thats better! Deleting.
Never loads
Takes for ever and a day to load, if it loads at all!
It's good for the common man
This app rules keep up the good work! If you don't like it don't spend money on stuff you don need..
