## Review summary

Users largely praise WMUR for strong local NH news and useful weather, plus timely alerts and some perception of balanced reporting. However, recurring issues include political bias in national coverage, a heavy ad and notification load, reliability problems (crashes, resets, playback issues), and privacy concerns over data sharing with Hearst.

### Pros

- Customizable breaking news alerts that deliver updates as they happen
- Strong local New Hampshire news coverage
- Weather features (radar and forecasts) are accurate and often better than the iPhone Weather app
- Video content is available for most stories, enhancing engagement
- Some users perceive neutral/balanced reporting amid overall coverage

### Cons

- Perceived political bias and lack of balanced national coverage
- Ad-heavy experience with frequent ads and banners that interrupt reading
- Stability and playback issues such as crashes, pauses, top-of-page resets, and auto-playing videos with sound
- Push notifications feel excessive or irrelevant throughout the day
- Privacy concerns due to data sharing with Hearst and related data-use worries
