User Reviews

Overall, users report several reliability and quality issues (crashes, playback interruptions due to ads, inconsistent sound, and post-update display problems), plus stale content. A few positives exist: quick download, a simple interface, morning news, and some compatibility with older iOS versions.

Pros

Quick download and a simple, intuitive interface.
Morning/live news availability and 'live' coverage.
Keeps users connected to home with local news.
Works on older iOS versions (e.g., OS 4.0) according to some reviews.

Cons

Frequent crashes or freezing upon launch or when opening articles.
Ads interrupt video playback and cause repeated commercials, cutting off stories.
Sound issues: no sound or inconsistent volume.
UI/display problems after updates: white screens or black text/cards.
News feed outdated or not updated, with limited stories.

Recent reviews

It used to be terrible to navigate. Since the last “update”, the ONLY thing it does is show the name of the app ON A WHITE SCREEN! NOTHING ELSE!

I’ve recently started using the app to watch Fox 29 news. Talk about terrible. So many stories are cut off in the middle of the broadcast by advertising. You’re then forced to watch the same ad five times in a row!! Talk about adding insult to injury. The sound isn’t very good either. Two reporters on the same set will have two different volumes. Don’t get too interested in a story because more than likely you won’t get to hear the whole thing. From other reviews it looks like this issue has been longstanding with no care to correct.
