Absolute Garbage, just an ad machine
Can’t find any live coverage for severe storms. I will stick to paramount plus and it’s live streaming broadcast of local news. Uninstalling
Ads
The updated App is ridiculous with Ads. Some of the stories when opened play a loud video that cannot be stopped without exiting. It is clear to me that Gray Media is more interested in forcing Ads to make money than providing a news source. I am deleting this App and going to KETV’s App.
Why???
Usually reliable but since the latest update, now you can’t even share a story because the link doesn’t work. And can the add just show on the story instead of having to click through it?
The share icon does not work
The share icon on the app does not work. Would like to share some stories I read. Not able to since this new look to this app 🫤
New app makes battery HOT
I noticed my phone battery was getting extremely hot since installing app. I tried all the Apple instructions to fix this. Looking at my battery usage, turns out your new app was draining my battery - 20-30% an hour in addition to making my battery very hot. App is deleted. And will stay deleted. It’s a double win for me - the constant pop-ups are annoying. I am avoiding your pop ups and saving my phone battery.

Sick of First Alert everything’
App is a mess! Company has gone nuts on self branding! Enough!!!
Update
Terrible update. An ad as soon as you open app and then you have to open app at the top to continue.
I deleted it. I’ll be using another local stations app.

Was a little better before.
New version is terrible. There are too many invasive ads that pop up when you click an article. Need to have an option to disable autoplay.
Navigation
App is mostly stable. Navigation is clunky, since they removed the swipe left/right capability.
Ads
Has always been my go to local news app. Now, after the update, when I go to a story, ads start blaring with no way to mute. I often check stories in locations I don’t want sound. Will stop using until things addressed.
WOWT app
Hate the new format
New App Not Friendly
The new app constantly says there is a notification where there is not and you cannot get rid of the red notification unless you uninstall the app and reinstall it. In addition, the ad pop up every time you open the app does not make it a great experience.
I loved the old app features.

Disappointed in the Update.
Usually updates are supposed to be an improvement, but not this time. For one thing, I constantly have a “1” showing like I have a notification but have looked everywhere and nothing! I even deleted the app and reinstalled it, but the “1” still shows. I know it will take time to get used to the new format, but right now I wish I had the old app back.

Annoying Pre-ads
Your preview ads (the ones that come up before one has the option to skip to the news) have become really annoying lately- especially the ones with loud noises and statements.
Where’s six on your side?
I’ll get used to the new layout but no six on your side tab?
An ad just to open the Ap
Yea will not use your app when you get an ad just to see the home page. Goodbye.
Impossible to find any stories
One of the hardest apps to navigate, I can’t find any stories that are on the live TV news, I’m giving up and deleting it.
App not working
App does not finish loading. Running new Apple iPhone. Tried a couple times.
Bias
This station is clearly bias leaning far left as you can get.
