User Reviews

User reviews largely cite the WBRC 6 News iOS app as plagued by excessive, loud ads and intrusive ad gating that interrupts reading and navigation. Many users report difficult navigation and a clunky new layout, along with notification bugs and reminders that push ads before content. A smaller subset express concerns about perceived bias in reporting. Despite those issues, some users still value headline/breaking news notifications and quick access to current local news when the app works.

Pros

Headline/breaking news notifications are valued by users.
Periodic news alerts are appreciated.
When the app functions, it provides quick access to current local news stories.
Users rely on the app as a source for local WBRC news updates via notifications.

Cons

Ads are excessive, intrusive, and loud, including full-page and autoplay ads with no easy opt-out or mute options.
Navigation and layout are difficult to use; users report trouble finding stories and poor search functionality in the new design.
Notification experience is cluttered by ads and gating, with headlines that require opening the app and multiple ad interactions to dismiss.
Perceived bias in reporting and neutrality concerns about the station's coverage.

I don’t know why you had to ruin a decent thing but you did. Now you have to jump through too many hoops just to get to the live streaming for the news and even then there’s so many ads or plaintiff attys ads in the way just trying to click on the correct selection
