I always check the news and weather every day several times. Love getting it on my phone
I am so proud of how well our local reporters articulate what is happening in our community. They do it with such professionalism and most of it is impromptu which makes so so much believable, “ no fakes in our news casters.”
The new version uses a font that is not as reader-friendly. It’s much slower to load, and the ads are placed too frequently and are distracting. In general, I find WLOX doesn’t update the news as frequently enough. There has to be more stories that are of local interest. Instead of the same news with no updates,!there could be more inspirational local coverage. Perhaps the most ironic and frequent negative aspect is the message of “there’s no news,” which in find is more frequent at night and on weekends.
WLOX is where I start my morning. The content is lackluster, and stale. Quite a bit of the current content is months old. The weather part is only somewhat helpful now since they removed the live morning report. Really enjoyed watching Wesley, he had a lot of enthusiasm. Near Zero on the saints. My time on the site has gone from 15min to 4min, then it's on to AppleNews.
I use this app everyday and I recently downloaded the newest update. It looks like a disorganized, jumbled mess. Often the same story featured several times and there is no clear division and eye appeal to the dividing lines between stories as they are listed on the main page. Also with the recent storm in the Atlantic there should be an update on the main page with current Speeds and forecast.
We appreciate you for providing up to the minute news coverage!
This new update isn’t as user friendly as the previous one. The colors and the set up seem distracting. It just kind of irritates you look for what you want to see first. It also freezes up, you have to close it and reopen. Sometimes change isn’t always the best. Also couldn’t rate the app in the actual app. That link doesn’t do anything. I had to go to the App Store.
I enjoyed the access to local news headlines, and I appreciate that the news stories were never behind a paywall. However, this app made my phone’s performance abysmal! The app constantly refreshed in the background, even after disabling this option in settings, and unavoidable full-screen animated ads (with embarrassing sound) popped up at random intervals. Extremely frustrating, and there’s no paid ad-free version available. Save your phone and just pin the WLOX homepage to your home screen!
Appreciate the convenience of staying fully informed while on the move. The AAP gives a Headline which I can clip on for the full story, or leave till I have more time, etcGreat knowing immediately the local headlines, wrecks, as well as important national news.I’m a believer👍
The problem with the app is when I turn my iPhone sideways to view a picture or video I can’t go back, the app freezes. I have to completely close the app and reopen it to continue. Very frustrating. And I realize the news has to advertise, but do I have to see one EVERY TIME i view a video? I have to admit that I don’t watch as many because of the ads. Thank you for letting me air my thoughts.
