Hate auto played video

I tend to catch up on the news either as I lay dune at bedtime (only to open an article to read, waking my husband because it starts involuntarily playing the article video??) I never click on the videos as I am trying g to quietly read the articles while others are sleeping. I hate when you click on an article to read it, and blasting commercials then articles play. I have to completely turn off any volume before opening a every single article on your site. Often I forget to turn it back on. Frustrating.

My Go-To News App!

Visit the site many times throughout the day to stay on top of things. I appreciate getting the latest news from my favorite reporters, Newscasters and, of course, weather/traffic. Not always easy to watch a while broadcast on the app - but it what I need out for. Will watch full 30-60 mins at home. But for "on the go" and updates, WLWT is my main source. Congrats on the Emmy's, too! Especially for the 53 Story. Blessings - a Loyal Viewer

Disappointed

Sometimes breaking news is not really “breaking “ as it has already been broken by another station. I really dislike the idea that they have of leaving the main part of an announcement off so you have to open the article. Annoying and makes me use my Fox19 App in order to see the headline without even having to open it. Sometimes I know by the headline if I even want to read the article. Weekend updates of weather are not always punctual in the early morning hours. I do like the news anchors and the weather team though, which is why I still use the app.

Stories in Push Notifications Impossible to Find

I really want to like this app. My primary issue is that stories in push notifications are nowhere to be found in the app. If I get the notification on my Apple Watch, the banner clears from my phone. I will still see the red notification badge on the app, but when I open the app without clicking on the push notification, 90%+ of the time I cannot easily find the corresponding story. If something is important enough to send a push notification, I should be able to find it on the app!

Get rid of the stupid COVID banner

It was good for a while and I didn’t mind it because if you wanted to view the “updates” then all you had to do was scroll to the top and click on the banner. NOW they banner is almost if not more annoying as the “pandemic” itself. Trying to read headlines and scrolling up only makes the banner take up over half the screen. Get your wannabe updates about COVID off the screen and allow the people to be able to read the news without you shoving this overrated COVID crap in their face.

Best in TriState

You are the best. The most accurate (especially weather), which is a big deal. So happy, positive, and upbeat.I work from home, so i watch all three of your newscasts; therefore, i need this app! Because of the anchors and reporters, and support staff, i know this app will be just as great!I travel with this app. It is on all our family’s devices.TOP NOTCH! Accurate. Get to the Point. Easy to read on the go. Always know what’s going on re: Weather, “Breaking News,” Food Recalls, Safety and Health stories. Anything important/relevant. Also love stories about local heroes, and know who is in need.You are the best on tv, and thru electronics!Thank you. I simply cannot imagine having another app. You are all that! Thank you.

Was working great but now live broadcasts are not working properly.

I was always using this app for the live news broadcasts in the morning while getting ready for work. Recently it has started to not function correctly. It will play commercials before it shows the news. Then the news will come on and then at a commercial break it plays more commercials but then it will never pick back up showing the live broadcast it just is a blank screen. Please fix this on your app.

Notifications are prompt and informative

We moved just north of the city in 2017. We started watching WLWT immediately - have to admit NBC was (and is) our preferred news source for local and national information. WLWT have informative and immediately important notifications. I enjoy listening to their journalists. But the best is their weather department. Their weather predictions are more accurate than other stations or apps. Randi Rico tells me exactly what I can expect for each day. WLWT definitely deserve a 5 star rating . . . . . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from our family !

Stop Race Baiting Garbage

Sick and tired of wanting to read real news, both locally and abroad, without inclusion/racism/LGBTQ+++/anti capitalism/Trump hating/COVID-19 lies about meds that really do work but because you hate Trump you won’t tell the truth & COVID-19 rules for me but not for thee/cop hating propaganda. When will you, Apple News, and all news outlets learn people of all colors, ages, genders or lack there of, are really tired of it all. It’s forcing people to look elsewhere for news like Twitter & RT. Think of something your parents tried shoving down your throat when you were a kid. What happened? You rebelled and were most likely disgusted by it. That’s how a lot of people feel right now. It’s nonstop 24/7 racist divisive garbage. Please just give the news. A sports team kneeling before a game is NOT news.

Radar is 8 minutes old!

After having been hit by the tornado in 1999, I am always keeping track of storms when they come through. But with the radar the images are always 8 minutes behind! A lot can happen in that short period of time! Why isn’t it more current? I do find that the forecast is more accurate than those by other statistics, and I like the meteorologists!The anchors have fun together and are great together.
