User Reviews for FOX 5 DC: News & Alerts

Ok news provider

I have a few concerns with this app for news. I don't see the need to receive repeated notifications for the same news story within an hour. I noticed a tad bit of media bias in regards to the story's that are shown on this app. It is quite apparent as well the author of a lot of these story's often time injects a biased undertone in the articles they write. I have noticed as well the factual innacuracies in these reporting in terms of Race- Political- Historical. Overall it's ok for news but I would definitely gain information from various sources in order to receive an accurate account.

Really? Who is reviewing before posting?

I love Fox 5. I’ve watched Fox 5 since I was in my early 20s. I’ve had the app for several years and have made comments about the spell check and proof reading before posting and nothing has been done. It’s amazing that Fox 5 would allow these mistakes to continue. Spelling and punctuation can really have an impact on how the public views our news. It is, also, showing the intelligence of our school system and the managers of the department. I don’t have a college degree and I catch these mistakes in almost (or is it all most) every post I read on the site. I hope Fox 5 will hire a reliable QC to fix these mistakes soon!

Fox five rating

It gives me information when I’m on the rode so I know where to go and how to get around traffic and what has happened and what the weather would be like when I’m not at home with my tv on at home and so and it gives me the important information on the news and the key facts of the news that why I have the fox 5 app 5 stars

Love Fox 5 but not the app

I have used the app for years to watch the news while getting ready in the morning; however, it has been giving me a great deal of trouble. I have had various issues in the past with its functionality, but for the past two weeks, it has gotten much worse. The app keeps shutting down just after it starts streaming. Earlier, it wouldn’t play most of the videos, but they seem to be working today, which made me think the streaming issue would also have been resolved. Nope! For some reason, the app works just fine on my husband’s much older iPad which even has less memory. My iPad and the app have all been updated, so I don’t know the cause. If someone could help me solve the problem, I would greatly appreciate it.

Zero stars to Fox5DC’s app developer

Downloaded 60 or more days ago and almost never a able to find the content I seeking. Weather links send one upon an endless spiral to link after link, while ever suggesting one to download the app? Because, almost every link takes a user beyond the limited contents of the app. Receive steady stream of app notifications but most lead nowhere but dead links or to more suggestions to download the app... I’m deleting right after providing this review. Fox5 is a dependable news provider, this app and your web page is the opposite of dependable.

Great app

The app has a lot of delays in the past. Since they updated it I have no problems with it now. I moved to Florida a few years ago and I love being able to see all of the unique teams of reporters. The news teams give a fresh and diverse look at the local and national news story’s with a flair of personalities. Here in Tampa , it the same old non energetic, boring ,blond hair newscasters giving the “Only in Florida Type Stories. “ Feels just like being at home in the DMV using the Fox 5 app. Please add the smartcast technology to it so I can put on the big screen.

News worthy

I love Fox 5. All of your crew seem genuinely like friends who enjoy working together. If not true, they are good actors. I love the Alerts I get when something is need to know.. The Live feeds are good, but the App has some bugs about it. It tends to repeat when going into and coming out of commercials. I don't have cable or an a ten a for my smart tv. But I always keep Fox 5 App in my iPad and this is the only way I can catch local news since cutting the cable.

Excellent reporting of local and national news

Thank you for the professionalism you all display. Your support of seeking the truth is second only to your kindness to each other. Thank you for hitting on the stories that impact who America is as a nation and who DC is as a city. Do we stand for good, truth and beauty? Each of you urges the public to use truth to establish good behaviors, with courage, self discipline and, yes, a lot of cheerfulness!!!Outstanding! Thank you!

Grossly inadequate app/Great news station

I finally had to drop my review from three stars to one. Have any of the developers actually tried to live with this app? The notifications are buggy. The alerts have problems but even when I disable these annoyances, the app is basically useless for watching the live feed. Over the past year I basically have a 15% success rate getting the live feed to work. The commercials they try and make you watch are what kill the feed. Terrible job. The fox 5 news team is amazing and I love all the anchors. I'm a true fox 5 fan but this app is suboptimal and the developers have had enough time to get it right. I'll be switching my news team now because I have to get my news someplace.
