User Reviews

WHNT’s iOS app is praised for strong, up-to-date local coverage and well-written reporting, plus useful weather updates. However, users repeatedly cite heavy ad load, a video-forward workflow that hinders reading, and redesigned navigation that makes it hard to find and read articles. Stability issues like freezing or gray screens and forced updates also appear in feedback. Overall, locals value the local focus and trustworthiness but are frustrated by ads and usability problems.

Pros

Excellent local news coverage for North Alabama and Southern Middle Tennessee with up-to-date reporting.
Well-written, factual articles with good grammar and reliability in reporting.
Helpful weather updates and timely local happenings that keep users informed.
Long-time users view WHNT as a trusted, community-focused news source and feel connected to the news team.

Cons

Intrusive, excessive ads that clutter pages, interrupt reading, and sometimes cover content.
Video-first design forces watching videos to access stories, with poor options to return to the news content.

The app sucks why in the world do I have to watch the video to get the story? Why in the can I not read the story? I click on it in the video pulls up. I don’t want to watch the video. I want to read the story.
