Also for making these totals where the can easily be found!!! ### 4/5 — WSAV *2019-09-17, version 40.33.550047260* I like it because it’s short and sweet and to the point ### 3/5 — Weather alerts *2019-03-03, version 40.30.410039702* We can read the alerts at the top of the screen. Repeating yourselves over and over is a bit self centered. Continue the regular programming with the alerts at the top of the screen after 5 or 10 minutes of the talk, talk, talking. ### 4/5 — Appreciate the news info. *2018-05-13, version 14.24.00035065* Quick, complete news and weather. ### 4/5 — Ga-n-ga *2018-03-26, version 14.24.00035065* Uploads much quicker than the other local apps. Would be nice if traffic included Waze info ### 4/5 — Excellent Rapid Notices!! *2015-10-23, version 4.14.5* You guys are really quick on the draw with mobile device notices of important overnight news. I have seen tremendous improvements in the nightly broadcasts. Your work gets better and better constantly. You are a great match for WTOC! You are capturing my attention from them more and more!!! ### 4/5 — WeatherRadar *2015-08-17, version 4.12.0* While I have found the whole of the WSAV app to be very useful, I feel that the weather radar is lacking. It does not have a timeline to follow when you hit play to watch the progression of weather and just should be more detail oriented in general. ### 5/5 — Awesome-ness!!!!! *2015-05-22, version 4.12.0* Love the live streaming and very easy to navigate ### 4/5 — WSAV-3 *2014-08-20, version 4.10.0* This app works great for me. Weather radar comes up quick and works well on my phone. Alerts are timely and relevant. I like the brief news reports. ### 5/5 — Great way to start the day *2014-07-30, version 4.10.0* Used every day. Gives news. Issues and weather are up to date ### 4/5 — Local *2013-05-04, version 4.5.3* Helpful events like shredding are difficult to find on your site. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — NOTHING’S CHANGED!!! *2024-06-28, version 500.4.0* Same complaints about this app and NOTHINGS CHANGED!!! SHAME!!!…ON…YOU!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — ‘Crach *2020-09-22, version 40.35.470055403* Why does the WSAV news app keep crashing on my iPad it keeps getting stuck I have to close it re-open it and try to go back to where I was at I’m getting tired of this you need to fix it I’ll give you a 01 star thank you ### 1/5 — Too many Ad’s *2019-10-11, version 40.33.550047260* Not at all happy with the app. Too many Ad’s! What more can I say.Now as of October 10 it is telling me I need to up date but I’m all up dated as it takes me to up date to open. I don’t like going in circles. Please stop the madness. ### 1/5 — New Version *2017-09-10, version 14.24.21* Loved the old version. ### 1/5 — Too many pop up ads *2016-10-08, version 5.17.3* I'm trying to live stream and one of the many pop up ads is over the link to click to go to the live stream. Very frustrating. The other Savannah stations layouts are much more user friendly. This looks like the design is to produce revenue for the station rather than to bring news to their viewers. The only reason I'm giving it one star is because I can't leave a zero. ### 1/5 — Say no to clickwrap *2011-12-21, version 2.0* I thought this was one of the benefits of iTunes software yet here we have a long list of Ts and Cs to sort through. No thank you. ### 2/5 — Murdaugh Updates *2023-02-04, version 41.16.0* Please stop sending so many updates on the Murdaugh trail. ### 2/5 — WTOC app is better *2015-10-23, version 4.14.5* This app is ok but could be tons better. News as it happens, hourly weather, happenings in town before they happen not the day after. ### 2/5 — News *2013-04-20, version 4.3.0* This app is ok, but the news isn't updated in a timely manner and you don't have access to all of the local news. ### 3/5 — UI update please *2020-10-16, version 40.35.570057543* The UI needs an Update, this is not a good as comparable apps out there ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — C.lewton *2020-09-20, version 40.35.470055403* Love WSAV ### 5/5 — Loads quick, good notifications *2020-03-29, version 40.35.290053051* The WSAV-TV app loads in no-time and the custom notifications are great! ### 5/5 — WSAV coastal sunrise with Kim *2020-02-10, version 40.34.380050640* The best news show in the Savannah area is WSAV coastal sunrise, thanks Kim ### 5/5 — Their personal delivery! *2019-10-17, version 40.33.550047260* I enjoy listening to the news, weather or sports. I have met some of the reporters on their personal time, and they were down to earth not bothered by my smiling, grinning and speechlessness. I also look to see what the ladies are wearing! Very stylish most of the time. Way to go WSAV. ### 5/5 — WSAV *2019-10-04, version 40.33.550047260* Love this news app ### 5/5 — Great *2019-08-05, version 40.33.530045954* While in Richmond Hill I thank you for the weather report We know how to dress for the day and what type of transportation to use car or golf cart Thank you WSAV for all the news! ### 5/5 — Switched to WSAV on iPad *2019-01-09, version 40.30.410039702* I had been watching WTOC on the iPad for my local news but they would go days and days with very little new stories. I switched to WSAV and am much happier. The stories are always new ever day and RELEVANT to our area. The layout is easy to read and doesn’t have a lot of annoying pop ups. Thanks ### 5/5 — Works Well *2018-03-07, version 14.24.00035065* Provides weather along with local stories. ### 5/5 — New residents *2017-09-21, version 14.24.21* We are new homeowners in Savannah. We trust WSAV to give us the best and most accurate news reporting. We are early risers, and find Ben Katko to be a very good anchor. Very professional, but down to earth. ### 5/5 — Staying connected *2015-12-02, version 4.14.5* Great app! Quick and up to date information and does not overload you with notifications. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
