I often get pop ups about news - but when I click on the pop up for more information, all I get is one commercial after another or it takes me to a completely different story. I have yet to get the actual story that the pop up was about!

Had a app to another station that was supposedly accurate however, I noted much shortcomings and their live radar delays and discrepancies in accuracy, when you are dealing with severe weather you want to make sure you have the most up-to-date information and accuracy and an app that is easy to follow. Highly recommend channel 16 mobile app.
