## Review summary

The WAVY TV 10 app on iOS delivers local news and weather content but is plagued by ad-heavy navigation, reliability problems, and intermittent access to live or current broadcasts. Users report frequent crashes, outdated articles, and disruptive pop-ups that hinder reading. While the app aggregates local information and offers customizable alerts, the overall experience is marred by ads, paywalls for live streams, and a confusing interface that isn’t well-optimized for Apple devices.

### Pros

### Cons

- Content is often not current, with news and weather showing as outdated.
- Live streaming is limited or requires payment; full broadcasts are not available.
- App crashes or freezes, and some updates prevent the app from opening.
- Poor navigation and a cluttered, ad-driven UI, with iOS navigation quirks and missing features.
