Bad update

This version is full of ads, annoying to navigate Not wasting precious time to try to like it Deleting

WKRN

Do not like the new design. When I get a notification, I cant find it on the home page.

Horrible

The update/redesign is horrible. I cant even use it now because of all the ads. Its definitely not user friendly anymore.

Locks up my phone

The update has a problem. I try to scroll through the news articles an add pops up and locks up my phone. Very annoying. I have to wait till the phone times out so I can come back and close this app. I have stopped using it because it happens every time. I will go back to using the NPR app.

Weather warnings

I hate that the weather warnings are for places not even in the my state. Granted, the warnings are for the next state over, but how can you set it to make it in the county and state where you live? It also doesnt refresh when the weather warnings expire (now two days ago). I will be stopping the app from these notifications and use another app for my weather warnings.

Great ads!

Download this if you enjoy pop up ads that switch you into safari.

Please fix or I gotta delete

The app design is fine, however the are just ridiculous. Hit the ad 5 times within a minute of scrolling. Need an update to fix the problem or Im moving on to another news app.

Update

The update is garbage!

Terrible

App was so much better before update! The layout is not user friendly at all. After reading a news story and hitting the back button, all of the news stories "shuffle" making it confusing to remember where you were in your reading. Im deleting!

Push notice Alerts are now silent????

What has happened to the DING when a push alert comes through???? Your upgrades took that away. All my phone settings are set correctly, but the audible alert has been gone for some time!!! ????? I do like being able to easily locate the push alert report once I open the app. Thats an improvement.

Traffic

Not sure why your app changed for the traffic. Now it is difficult to get this part of your app.

Exercise in degradation

Deleting! Just getting worse and worse. Floods me with notifications about the littlest things but Im stuck in a huge backup on 840 that they didnt tell me about. Interface is terrible. Go back a few versions. Stop pulling the trigger so quickly on some of your alerts!

Update is horrible

Was the best...now the worse

If its not broken...

This new update is so annoying, especially the radar and weather section. The radar used to be so easy to use and very easy to see. Now its awful and useless. Bring back how the radar used to be!!

Trouble loading

This app is ok. The most recent version wont load. Also the radar feature wont load as well. Sad because this usually has been a dependable app for weather and news.

Poor app

Uninstalling. Far too many push notifications are sent as "breaking news!" There are also annoying pop up ads; currently a campaign ad that covers the entire screen and has to be closed to view any of the news items. Push notifications should be reserved for truly impactful events. Im reminded of the fable about the little boy who cried wolf and wkrn should be, too.

This app gets worse and worse

A few updates ago this was a pretty good app. No longer. Now when you see a story you have to go to the top or the bottom in order to show how to get back home. The push ads are annoyingly placed and push the story teasers down after they are loaded. Look to Reuters to see how to do a decent app. The general layout is getting worse and worse also.

Horrible!

Why are you sending me notifications for a possible flash flood in Louisville Kentucky??!!?? Every five seconds its another breaking story. I check it and its high winds in Franklin Kentucky. WHO CARES??? They have their own news stations.

Shouldve left it alone...

The app was good...updates, weather, news, and when you read the notifications they went away. When I updated to the new version I couldnt get the notification number to go away off the app so I made the app go away. As my Granmomma used to say sometimes its best to leave well enough alone.

WKRN-2

Make the notification numbers go away! I like receiving notifications, but I want the number to go away. Please do something!
