There are frequent multiple notifications for the EXACT article minutes apart and then days later. I’ll have anywhere from 21-50 notifications and about 12-15 are repetitive. 2. Sometimes I click the notification and the article doesn’t load and it’s impossible to find it on the app. There should be a way to search the articles. 3. I have to frequently forward the articles in a message or to google in order to see the videos because it often won’t play. ### 2/5 — Click Bait News Articles *2026-08-08, version 8.9.8* I miss when WSBTV didn’t do clickbait articles and would tell you the news in the article. I had to rely on other apps because of this. ### 2/5 — App Not Good *2026-08-04, version 8.9.8* You all need to do some work on this app because it not work properly like it should. ### 4/5 — Great info *2026-07-16, version 8.9.8* WSB is the leader in news and information. Their info on weather and traffic is a must to start the day! ### 3/5 — Stalls a lot *2026-07-07, version 8.9.8* Can’t enjoy the app because it does not stay on or the videos stop frequently. Have to continuously come out of the app and go back in. ### 2/5 — Frequently Annoying *2026-06-17, version 8.9.8* 1.

Sometimes I click the notification and the article doesn’t load and it’s impossible to find it on the app. 3. I have to frequently forward the articles in a message or to google in order to see the videos because it often won’t play. ### 2/5 — yall are paid too much money to have this poor excuse of an app. *2026-06-01, version 8.9.8* crashes. videos freeze on ads. often showing different media to the article altogether. spamming notifications all day long, then not being able to see the actual breaking news, because the player is just frozen black. ### 2/5 — good until notifications became spammy *2026-05-30, version 8.9.8* there's no reason to start re-sending notifications about stories i already read about a week prior. what's the reason for this? i'll even open the article to see if it was updated but no, just unnecessarily spamming out notifications - and they're frequent enough as-is. deleting the app.. ### 2/5 — Video issues *2026-05-15, version 8.9.8* Frequently, videos won’t load properly. Sometimes they crash the app altogether. In other times it will play the wrong video. I love watching this TV station and they are my #1 source of news and weather in Atlanta, but the app rarely gets used because of these issues ### 3/5 — Disappointed with WSB *2026-04-12, version 8.9.8* Too many ads! The same news is repeating ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Freezes *2026-07-31, version 8.9.8* This app freezes up constantly to the point that I have to restart my iPad to get it to unfreeze it’s annoying. It needs updates for improvement. I tried deleting it and reinstalling it, and nothing helps the freezing up. ### 1/5 — Too much click bait and ads pop up to even read a story or watch a video…. *2026-07-24, version 8.9.8* Too much click bait and ads pop up to even read a story or watch a video…. ### 1/5 — Slow app *2026-07-18, version 8.9.8* Never work properly for me. Freezes up a lot ### 1/5 — Not user friendly *2026-07-04, version 8.9.8* This app a waste of my time. It cuts the story off while the interview is going and just moves to the next story only to do the same thing. Also, most of the videos don’t show when you click on them; you can only hear people talking. ### 1/5 — Bad News *2026-06-26, version 8.9.8* Every time breaking news comes through it’s always “Bad or Depressing “ news. I’ve never read anything good on this app. ### 1/5 — Notifications have bad links *2026-06-08, version 8.9.8* Lately and for the last day, the notification link takes us to an unrelated article. Who is managing the links? Then, if I want to find the relevant article based on that notification it’s not listed anywhere. You’re nailing the art of click bait. ### 1/5 — The app sucks *2026-05-30, version 8.9.8* Never lets you watch videos and the links from notifications never work ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-05-05, version 8.9.8* You post way too many ads and from very aggressive home improvement companies ### 1/5 — My trusted news source *2026-05-03, version 8.9.8* I’ve been watching channel 2 action news all my life. I’m 56. I trust channel 2 with up-to-date Weather breaking news and information. But the website has a bunch of. And repetitive stories and fluff and filler that taint the credibility of WSB. The app needs to be updated and definitely remove all the ridiculous ads. Give us good, solid content and keep the trash as where they belong off this website. ### 1/5 — Wrong *2026-04-13, version 8.9.8* When clicked the story is not there ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Things changed *2026-08-29, version 8.9.8* I watched WSB-TV News regularly when Jovita Moore and Justin Farmer worked together. However, I don’t care for anchor Jorge Esteve and therefore don’t watch the 6:00pm and 11:00pm news much. ### 5/5 — Review of Chanel 2 WSB *2026-08-08, version 8.9.8* WSB TV NEWS and WEATHER ### 5/5 — Excellent Updates *2026-06-09, version 8.9.8* Excellent News Coverage ### 5/5 — I appreciate what’s making news, as a former TV anchor in San Francisco, now retired in Marietta, GA *2026-06-06, version 8.9.8* The constant updates and factual information provided by WSB-TV News is a CONSTANT in my life. I thoroughly appreciate how WSB-TV STAYS ON THE JOB…Delivering news we can all TRUST AND BELIEVE . THANKS TO ALL WHO MAKE THAT POSSIBLE. ### 5/5 — Awesomeness *2026-05-29, version 8.9.8* I love channel 2 ### 5/5 — Be specific *2026-05-08, version 8.9.8* When you are writing about an accident, murder or house fire, people want to know what town in the county you mention, what street if possible and the name(s) of the victim(s) else there is no point in even mentioning it. ### 5/5 — 1 News Station *2026-05-05, version 8.9.8* I am a native Atlantan, grew up watching WSB TV. Excellent coverage of the news,sports and weather. I moved to Port Richey, Fl five years ago. Daily I read Channel 2 news. Here in Florida I watch Channel eight news. It’s a Tampa station. ### 5/5 — Why *2026-04-23, version 8.9.8* WSB says you are the Number One newscast in Atlanta. Then why is channel 11 saying the same thing? ### 5/5 — The truth *2026-04-03, version 8.9.8* We as Americans need to hear the truth….. Don’t hold back, tell it like it is…… We need to know the truth….. We need to be prepared not left in the dark. ### 5/5 — WSB-TV News *2026-01-31, version 8.9.7* WSB news keeps informed.
