Perhaps you should hire her! But then again, who would relay news to us if she were on your payroll? Hire someone interested in relaying news. ### 1/5 — Can’t read *2024-12-09, version 4.0.14* The print is to small for me to read ### 1/5 — Cannot use *2024-08-09, version 4.0.13* Locks up when tries to open. Says allow location tracking but doesn’t go to next screen 😫 ### 1/5 — Microphone does not work *2021-12-26, version 3.4.8* After the last update my microphone does not work when you’re trying to upload Weather photos when filling out the forms ### 1/5 — Users *2021-11-22, version 3.4.7* Won’t work after update guess I’ll get news from wmbb ### 1/5 — Undo update *2021-11-22, version 3.4.7* Sadly, your update won’t even allow app to open ### 1/5 — Be Aware - Tracks Your Location *2021-02-18, version 3.3.7* The App will not open if “Location Services” is turned off, which is used to prevent the App from tracking your location. In the App Privacy section, the App acknowledges tracking your location. The App denies collecting any identifiers from your device (that’s questionable). Note: the other local television news app does not insist on tracking your location. Not sure why the App insist on tracking your phone’s location other than to collect information in order to sell to advertisers. ### 1/5 — WJHG app *2021-01-09, version 3.3.6* Download it try to open immediately closes junk need new update ### 1/5 — Scam Ads *2020-09-16, version 3.3.3* I understand the need for advertising but the ones they show are misleading and negative. Complete turn off, I want weather, not spam. ### 2/5 — Keeps kicking me out! *2020-09-08, version 3.3.3* Every time I go into the App it kicks me out! Everything is updated my phone the app everything please fix! ### 1/5 — Nhenrock *2019-03-17, version 3.2.1* I have used this everyday for several years, and it has been very good! Especially for checking weather forecast and radar. Now, when I click on the icon it just goes to a blank screen, for the past 2.5 days. I have tried it on WiFi and off. It is the only app I have that just Stopped working, so I don’t believe it is settings on my phone. It has to be something with your update?!?! ### 1/5 — Broken App *2019-03-16, version 3.2.1* The WJHG app appears broken...much like watching the news on WJHG. I deleted it. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — WJHG Channel 7 News *2026-07-08, version 5.0.6* Terrible not in English as advertised ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2026-04-13, version 5.0.3* News is blocked by ads that you can’t get beyond, deleted app probably won’t watch on tv either anymore. Very disappointed ### 1/5 — Used to be good *2026-04-08, version 5.0.3* Greed has taken over. Nothing but ads. ### 1/5 — Horrible app *2026-03-11, version 5.0.1* I use it, but I don’t like it. ### 1/5 — Ads when you open the App *2025-12-29, version 4.0.15* I am tired of opening this App and immediately getting loud ads. I understand the need for advertising. But to do it when you first open the app takes it to a new level of frustration. They open with loud volume. I love WJHG and their news. If it doesn’t change soon I am going to just delete the app. ### 1/5 — More advertisements than news *2025-12-02, version 4.0.15* Corrupted by advertising ### 1/5 — Constant grammar issues and mis information *2025-11-06, version 4.0.15* Today I read a headline saying a woman was sentenced to death for a bike week vehicle accident. But then when you read the story the woman got 10 years in prison. Who ever proofreads there work isn’t doing a great job. Or they don’t have anyone checking there work before they put it on the app or site. I mean come on your News channel 7. I would expect better from y’all. ### 1/5 — Ads *2025-10-16, version 4.0.15* A big pain in the BUTT … horrible when trying to read the latest news ### 1/5 — Tracking You! *2025-06-27, version 4.0.15* If they turn off the tracking feature then it might be worth using! ### 1/5 — Not Great *2025-04-07, version 4.0.15* The app is not great. Often receive a black screen when trying to stream from the app and even when it does work, it crashes. Terrible app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great source for news! *2026-06-05, version 5.0.4* WJHG is my go-to for all things news! ### 5/5 — I LOVE WJHG *2026-06-05, version 5.0.4* Best app ever! ### 5/5 — 1st News Station in Panama City *2026-06-05, version 5.0.4* Local News ### 5/5 — Not working *2019-03-16, version 3.2.1* The Newest update isn’t working. There is only a blank screen. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app and it’s still just blank. I use this app everyday and love it but the update needs to be fixed. ### 3/5 — Better before update *2026-03-21, version 5.0.2* Definitely better before the update. The App on our Phones keeps saying there 1 notification and doesn’t clear after opening the App up?! ### 3/5 — Adds very annoying *2025-12-10, version 4.0.15* The adds have made this app so annoying, that I will no longer be using this app. ### 3/5 — Freezing *2019-07-30, version 3.2.4* The app freezes almost every time I try to get into it. ### 3/5 — Bad update *2018-01-09, version 3.1.5* Can’t use radar as I use to since latest update. Have to click future radar and loop it to view weather radar. All this started about time of update release 2 weeks ago. ### 2/5 — Ads when you open the App *2025-12-01* I am tired of opening this App and immediately getting loud ads. I understand the need for advertising. But to do it when you first open the app takes it to a new level of frustration. ### 2/5 — No more weather or radar *2023-02-11, version 4.0.2* Lost the local weather & important radar. Now have to add their Weather App. No - go back to previous system. I don’t want to add another app. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
