Useless
I’m deleting. It’s become unusable. Pop ups & ads constantly that you can’t even read a single thing.
Not worth it
Waste of time downloading this app. Use to be good but now i cant read an article without constantly having to close pop up videos. Uninstalled it and switched to Gulf Coast News app.
Advertising covers the entire page! Horrible!
Fix your landing page! Whenever I open the app, I cannot see any news articles because they are all covered with 2 or 3 ads. Who designed this anyway? It’s difficult to scroll down to the news stories. Then when you start reading one, the app “jumps.” Please fix this mess-very unprofessional for a so-called News site.

Spam adds
Can’t even read the news because so many pop-ups of junk ads
Clutter!!!!
After the most recent update, your app, which has been great and helpful up until now, is a mess of cluttered ads. It’s almost impossible to find things because there are so many ads at the top of the screen at the bottom of the screen. It’s ridiculous. If this doesn’t get fixed, I’ll be deleting this app which is sad because I have depended on it for news and weather in our area. Please clean it up! I realize those ads pay for things but could you at least make it a little more user-friendly?

Wink sucks
Matt is too good for you.
Matt devitt
They literally fired the reason we watch this channel for no reason. There is no WINK without Matt devitt. Sorry he doesn’t scare you with news but he is the weatherman in SWFL.
You cancel Matt, we cancel you
Wink cancelled Matt… well… consequences.. bye bye WINK
:(
Used to love wink news and weather until they fired fired everyone’s favorite meteorologist
Matt
How could you fire the best weatherman in our area ???

Still problems
Just tried to open article about flying violinist and a third of article was blocked out with Lexus ad and no way to close ad.
Newest Update a Mess
Just tried to open article about flying violinist and a third of article was blocked out with Lexus ad and no way to close ad. You got some work to do. Will stick with GulfCoast & Fox right now for Fort Myers news.
What is up with this?
Upgraded to the new version and oh my!!! It had some issues before with the live feed just stopping. This version’s even worse. Won’t full screen, keep’s refreshing and keep getting the “spinning wheel” where it just hangs up. Been around computers for over 45 years and have found that a fair amount of upgrades are unnecessary, especially this one.

Stop Auto Playing!
I used to love this app and frequented it numerous times a day for news. Now, every time you open it or click on a link it starts blasting you with the sound. It catches you off guard and is quite embarrassing if you’re in public. I have not found anywhere on it for settings to stop that. They’ve ruined this app just like their spell checking/grammar skills.

Takes over my speaker
It’s overall a good app but I prefer to READ my news not watch it or listen to it. Every time I open a story to read it automatically starts playing. This is a recent change and I really dislike it. I am avoiding opening articles now. No support or comments link available for tech support.
Lose the audio ads
I’m not a fan of the new automatic ad audio coming on when I click a link. Your app has been deleted. I’ll check back someday in the hopes that you realize video isn’t always appropriate.
Worse app ever
I love WINK news but I have found myself drifting to Gulf Coast News on my phone, they sometimes have a short commercial before the newscast but at least you can watch it, if I want to just READ an article on WINK I get a pesty video of I don’t know what preventing me to read the article. I wish someone could make this app better to use.

Cant open the news drop down thanks to ads
Cant open the news drop down thanks to ads.
Broken app.
If I open the application I'm forced to watch whatever live feed or video they shove in my face. I swipe to close, I press the 'X,' doesn't matter. Can't read a single article, this app doesn't work.
Okay
The news channel is OK, the weather report is great. But the app runs horribly. Every time I click a notification on my phone for an alert either news or weather, the app repeatedly stops me from being able to read the article because ads/videos, keep popping up to block my viewing. Not very helpful at all. I will be exploring other Southwest Florida news station apps.
