  2. 1/5Needs filter for unwanted alerts badly

    They have push notifications down. The app alerts you several times a day for every little thing. EVERY morning I get between 5 and 10 "alerts" for slow traffic or an accident on a highway over an hour away from me, well after I'm already at work. There is a button under settings to configure push notifications. This button pops up a message telling you to go to your device settings to configure notifications. Ok. That's entirely not useful. The competitor (5 News) app allows me to choose the alerts I want to receive. (Traffic, breaking news, sports, weather, etc). This one feature alone has me considering deleting this app. I have no need for traffic updates. I don't want them. It is not breaking news that traffic is slow on I49. It's become a joke when the alert comes in to try to guess where the accident is before we look at the phone. I hardly even bother to look at them now. Give us the option to filter the alerts that come in. That or I'll find a different service that does...oh there is one already. Edit: I did end up removing the app and then about 3 months ago I downloaded it again to see if anything changed. Spoiler alert: it hasn't. I still cannot filter out traffic alerts for places more than 100 miles from me. Time to remove it again. Edit2: so I downloaded it again. Don’t ask why. But didn’t even turn on notifications. I’ve received 4 notifications to tell me that I don’t have notifications turned on. REALLY?!?

  3. 2/5Like the local news, hate the amount of 'fluff' content

    I will preface that I understand the fluff lifestyle articles featured on this app (and the website) generates revenue for them. But for me, the format in which they feature these click bait pieces drives me crazy. Regular ads I can tolerate, but the "lifestyle" slide-show articles mixed within the local / proper news feels disorganized and tabloid-y. To be fair, this is not the only news app or website that populates non-news 'sponsored content' articles into it's proper news feed and, as mentioned earlier, I understand it's income and keeps the app free. But it's a format that increasingly 1) doesn't work for me, 2) tests my patience and 3) makes my visits to apps and websites like this very short.

  4. 5/5Weather Accuracy

    I would like to give this a five star rating but due to the weather forecast for several days out, it is always different than what is shown during your weather forecast during the news.

  5. 2/5Incomplete articles/sentences

    For some unknown and annoying reasons, a sentence will stop midway especially if there is an advertisement you have to scroll past. Many times the whole final section(s) of the article will be cut off. It makes trying to read any news on this app frustrating. I no longer try 90% of the time and just read the headlines. The other 10% of the time, I try in hopes that they have finally read their own articles on the app and figured out this is an issue. But since I am writing this today - nope!
