### 2/5 — Needs improvement

*2013-06-25*

Kind of buggy. Things do not open properly. Sometimes you need to delete the app in the background of ios to get it to start properly. Same thing happens on my iPad. Needs updating.

### 1/5 — News?

*2013-03-30*

Today is the 30th. News has not been updated since the 20th. Useless.

### 1/5 — Live Streaming Video??

*2013-02-08*

Just updated to the latest version of this app. 
11:15 and when I hit the Live Video I get "Watch during our regularly scheduled newscasts". 
Oops, cut to commercial.

Update 2/7/13: Live Streaming Video still not working!!

### 1/5 — Too Political

*2026-02-10*

No longer a trusted news source. Now just another puppet for the billionaire class

### 1/5 — Sports

*2024-07-10*

The sports guy has got to go! He shouts during his entire time on the air- doesn’t he know we have volume controls on our devices????
Not only shouting but I’m afraid he is going to spit on me thru the screen. I have stopped watching , hope you can find a replacement or groom the guy- one of your worst hires!

### 1/5 — App

*2024-06-03*

Out of the blue the app won’t open up

### 1/5 — It’s 2023. Where is landscape mode?

*2023-03-13*

Whoever you use to do you app should be fired.

### 1/5 — Using excessive cellular data

*2018-09-21*

The latest update is using an excessive amount of cellular data from Time & Location polling.  My carrier charged me for going over plan this month. Has taken several weeks to track down WRGB as the culprit.

### 1/5 — No sound

*2018-06-25*

Was working great. Uninstalled x2 but still no sound in the live stream on the iPhone X

### 1/5 — CRASH

*2015-12-17*

Crashes EVERY time I click on App Discovery.
Cannot use these features!!!!

### 1/5 — WRGB News

*2015-10-24*

Went to do update and it put the app in the cloud can not get it out do I can't use it. 
Hope you fix it soon, it's been awhile already.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2015-06-02*

Poorly organized. Back to the drawing board. Simple is better.

### 1/5 — App

*2013-09-23*

This app is horrible. You can never get the weather and news stories never come up when you click on them. Useless.

This app is great

### 4/5 — Good App

*2017-08-06*

I like the layout and explore feature. I only have one complaint...I can't get the audio notifications of the app to work. They pop up on the screen but no audio alert. Hmmmm. 
Thanks for listening

### 4/5 — App is good

*2013-09-30*

The app is a pretty good little app. I can view sports and local news and watch video highlights of high school sports. I did have problems with the weather portion however. I could not view the extended forecast as I got a blank screen and the weather video was just an ad

### 3/5 — Ads take too long!

*2015-01-08*

The countdown timer lasts longer than the actual ad!

### 2/5 — Landscape?

*2017-01-26, version 6.12.0*

The app is good but where is landscape mode?
