User reviews

Good app, but adds are too large and cumbersome.

I have always loved the app, and the updates that I received. I enjoy the fast access to current events, so I still give 4 stars. That being said, since it was reformatted, and the advertisements were made so large; I find myself avoiding the app, and not wanting to open articles. The advertisements are so large, that it is inevitable to hit them multiple times while reading one article. It constantly causes Safari to open, and wastes my time exiting out of advertisements that I never meant to open. I am considering removing the app if it remains so frustrating to use.

Not a Fan

Well WJAC use to be Johnstown’s news station, but that was a very long time ago. If you try and bring up the local news you mostly find stories on every other town, city and county. And there’s a reason for this... they keep the public in the dark about just how bad things have become in Johnstown. Oh those who are awake and can see the dilapidation of their city’s infrastructure and crime basically get it without the news to confirm this.
Maybe those in charge of what gets out are simply trying to paint over the dark picture of what the city’s legislators have left their constituents with... a crumbling infrastructure and high crime rate.
It’s amazing just how many stories do not make the news.

Lackluster app and trash journalism

WJAC continues to publish shoddy journalism that demonstrates a failure to demonstrate even a sixth grade level of writing. The app is unreliable and articles remain on the landing page that should have been removed a long time ago. They remain in the pocket of special interest and political favoritism. Therefore the news reported is wholly unreliable.

Not impressed

This app stinks. This is the only app that I have never been able to hear the videos and it’s not just my phone, it’s been on many phones that I have had. It’s just never worked.

Good content, attractive layout, but...

desperately needs horizontal viewing mode in addition to vertical!
