Too many ads

Poor layout with too many ads makes the app hard to use.

No update

You’re forcing people to buy a new phone to accommodate your new update. I am not going to buy a new phone so I will not be using this app ever again! When it says download an older version there is no older version.

Weather

Joe

Not bad, but not made for iPad use.

The app itself is a decent app, news is well covered. Would be great if the app worked in landscape mode for iPad.

What were you thinking?

Congratulations! You have successfully ‘fixed’ the app until it broke. Can’t even get news anymore. App is garbage and you should be ashamed of yourselves. Unbelievable.

Slow and unresponsive

The app worked great until they decided to update and change the app. I read a story and app crashes or does not respond. JI used to rely on app for breaking news and weather but now it is unresponsive even after update. I rely on school notifications and no longer receive. There is no longer an option to sign up for alerts or breaking news. I have now downloaded the competitors apps and they are easy to follow, responsive to selections, and receive the notifications. I have emailed a few times without a response. Time to move onto channel 2 & 5

Awful Since Last Update

As another reviewer has stated whatever change they recently made to the ap has made it basically unusable! They need to pull this latest code and go back to previous and test it out before installing again. I’ve provided feedback several times and emails I’ve received acknowledge problems but their solution is to access via desktop! Seriously?!

App is now unusable!

I depended on this app for daily news sports and weather for a few years now. It was great until about one week ago. Whatever was done to the app at that time made it unusable. It is now sluggish, very slow and unstable. When it does work (seldom) the presentation and “look” of the stories is disjointed and terrible! I can’t understand how a news organization can’t test their app prior to publishing it! Just bad and a bad look for WLUK! I assume that whoever wrote the app that was in use prior to last week has left the company.

Garbage News

Another typical left wing news organization! For it being local one would expect it to be objective but of course its left wing garbage delete immediately!

App settings

It’s 2022. Make the back button easier and stop the stupid auto play ads in news stories. If you are listening to podcasts or music it cuts out then you have to exit the app and go into what you were playing to start it again.

Choice of stories

Seems to report on any car crash and house fire. Also likes to choose off beat stories that appeal to the typical Fox News viewer.

Ads Covered!

Ads everywhere, very glitchy app, i just switched to the weather channel. This app just didnt work as well.

Needs bigger back buttons

I do like this app, but trying to use the tiny little back buttons after reading a story makes it much less enjoyable. Just enlarge those buttons a little bit and it will be much more user friendly.

Question of the day

I clicked on the Question of the Day today (1/20/2020) and was show a question from 2016! WOW...HOW INEPT CAN AN APP BE?

Needs Updates

This app is good for getting news but if you watch the weather and close it the next time you open it the same day is still playing. It needs to refresh itself upon opening. Only thing that works is to force close the app to refresh it

Works great on iPhone XR

I can finally watch the news again. Haven’t been able to since cutting the cord!

Freezes up

Freezes up then crashes while scrolling thry headlines. This happens daily, in some cases multiple times in one day. Phone and app are updated so not sure why it happens but it's annoying.

Soccer?

Why is soccer from other countries, being shown on regular TV? There are sport channels for soccer and tennis. Not all viewers are interested sports of any kind. Channel 2 has a very interesting morning show. It is my new go to.

Ms. Marilyn J Streubel

Fox 11 is the most trusted news and weather station we watch....your team both during the week and the weekends are perfectly matched and can always count on the latest breaking new and weather....I am not saying I haven’t tried other local newscasts but have always come back to channel 11....Fox news....you are accurate and fun also....thank you for allowing me to tell you all that you are GREAT! Thank you for many years of accurate news and weather....Marilyn J Streubel....

Disappointing

Alerts pop up and I go to the app to find out additional info or to watch a video it says is playing. Most times the alert story isn’t posted yet and the videos, after having to click on this, go here and there...it doesn’t load or play. What a waste. Love the actual news on TV. The app needs a lot of work.
