User Reviews

Users praise FOX LOCAL for engaging anchors and useful local news, and appreciate features like viewing multiple cities. However, recurring issues dominate: unreliable notifications, frequent performance problems (freezes/crashes), and poor content quality (repetition, proofreading, possible misinformation). Bias in coverage and outdated content plus navigation UX complaints are also common. Overall sentiment is mixed: strong positive impressions when the app functions, but reliability and content/UX problems are widely reported and need attention.

Pros

Engaging on-air anchors and talent (e.g., Bryan Gallo, Steve Noviello, Paige, Mr. Tucker) that users enjoy.
Valued local news coverage with positive reliability sentiment from some users when the app works.
Multi-city/local news viewing option that lets users follow news from different cities.

Cons

Unreliable notifications: delays, incomplete delivery, and some alerts not arriving or opening blank.
Frequent performance issues: freezing, crashes, locking up, long load times, and the app not opening properly.
Content quality concerns: repetitive information within articles and poor proofreading; concerns about misinformation.
Perceived bias in coverage: multiple users feel the reporting is biased toward a political leaning.
Outdated content and UX/navigation issues: headlines not updating, missing video content, and difficulty switching between locations.

This app is good for wherever you are especially if you’re home sick

I have no issue with the news side of things, I’m able to watch or read things with no issues at this time BUT… the weather side has a big flaw. When trying to check the radar, it does not resize from the small radar icon when opening it. I’m not sure if it’s a FOX29 feed issue or for all local stations nationwide. You cannot see anything on it due to this and that’s a huge oversight or a coding issue that needs to be fixed asap.
