User Reviews

Users praise the app for strong local coverage and easy mobile access, noting Channel 5’s professionalism. However, they frequently report timeliness problems, streaming reliability issues, disorganized feeds and weak weekend updates, and missing features such as live streaming and city-specific weather settings.

Pros

Strong local Rio Grande Valley coverage with Channel 5 credibility.
Very convenient mobile access to stay up-to-date on the go.
Professional and trusted news presentation from Channel 5.
Overall useful resource for keeping informed about local news.

Cons

News content is often not current, lagging behind the website by 15–20 hours or more.
Streaming and overall app reliability issues (audio/video drops, region-based streaming limitations).
News feeds feel unorganized/chaotic with weak weekend updates; not enough news overall.

Recent reviews

Stop sending push notifications in Spanish it’s very annoying when I get them in English after in Spanish.

Installed the app and noticed that it’s at least 3-4 hours behind the news with the website. Deleted app and just created a shortcut to the website on my home screen. Why even build a news app that has older news?
