User Reviews

User reviews show CBS Austin News is plagued by stability and performance issues, with frequent launch failures after updates, slow navigation, and freezing. The app also lacks landscape support on iPad, making it hard to use on larger devices. Push notifications often fail to open the correct story, and weather/content reliability is questionable. A Chromecast capability is noted by at least one user, but overall sentiment is that the app is unreliable and outdated on many devices.

Pros

Chromecast and other streaming device support (cast to TV).

Cons

App won't open or fails to load after updates (crashes/launch failures).
Slow performance and freezing during navigation and scrolling.
No landscape support on iPad/tablet, making it unusable on landscape mode.
Push notifications do not open the related story when tapped.
Weather content and app navigation are unreliable; information may be inaccurate or redirect to external webpages.

It runs fine for 5 minutes, but it starts getting so slow between clicks that you can’t even use the app. It can take several minutes to load up the next article, and if you push the back button it takes several more minutes to load that back up. It’s an unusable app.
