Local Now: News, TV & Movies for Negative User Reviews

✓ Good concept, buggy appLocal Now has a great assortment of local and national news networks along with some general entertainment and specialty content. But good luck watching any of the live streams: it takes multiple taps of a channel icon or program name to actually launch the stream you want, and the guide is a buggy mess that has a mind of its own. Things that should be relatively easy to fix, and let’s hope they do..Matthew KeysVersion: 6.0.1

✓ Auto-playAuto-plays when opened. How about an option to auto-mute..FarleyfarleybdcharlueVersion: 6.3.1

✓ Can we just keep it real?There’s nothing “local” about this app. The whole app is just public domain movies and Entertainment Studios straight-to-streaming projects. Even the streaming stuff is generic and non-location-specific programming. Just an overall not-good experience with this app..BeatMiserVersion: 4.1.0

✓ Could be betterHas some good shows and channels, but it randomly jumps around and takes you away from what you’re looking at. I usually give up and close the app.Big - DGVersion: 6.0.1

✓ Sooo much potential but too many problemsThis app has tons of live channels, so many that I would love to watch…if only I could click on something without it jumping to a totally different category!! 😡 The app on my smart TV isn’t much better, works for awhile until it crashes. Needs A LOT of work on multiple platforms..Tms9055Version: 6.0.1

✓ Numerous Interruptions of the program selected!To whom this may concern: The program titled, “Silence Patton”, stop less than 1/2 way through, when I was then bombed with commercial after commercial, never returning back to the interrupted program. I tried several times to restart the movie, and only retuned the same commercials again! This was my first experience with Local Now, and it wasn't all that great! Respectfully, Dan C..Mr. Dan C.Version: 5.3

✓ Area EventsI can’t seem to find any listing for area events! That is the main reason I downloaded this app. I can get the weather and news on TV but for some reason, they only mention events after they have already happened. Am I not looking in the right place?.SkyPrincesaVersion: 4.3.1

✓ Local?I didn’t see ANY local news at all. When I clicked on local news, I got a few headlines, none that were actually in our area, but no story to go with it. What the heck? The ads come through just fine..SoutheastKansasVersion: 4.3.1

✓ No voiceover.The app is fair but there is a major problem. I am visually impaired and I have the voiceover to read and it doesn’t read anything below the video screen. How am I supposed to read the news articles and all the movies if I can’t see it. The voiceover on my device would read the details below the video screen but all it’s doing is responding like the voiceover is off. That’s very disrespectful and I don’t appreciate it. #respect people with disabilities..Sunthebun1Version: 4.0.0

✓ NavigationThis app is wonderful to have but it needs some work due to voiceover and people that are blind and visually impaired cannot navigate it very well. In your next app version would you make it accessible for the blind and visually impaired.Kc9cdaVersion: 5.5

✓ Issues with channel scrollingHaving same issues with other reviewer about scrolling to channels not staying and returning back to locals channels section. Hope for next update to fix this issue.PbsportsVersion: 6.0.1

✓ Great app....but...Love the app, but it sometimes reboots constantly on my tv..so much so that at times its just not worth it and I turn it off. I know you have to get your ads in there, but when you put an ad in for a movie...which should really be in the show biz/entertainment section...and the ad is several minutes long plus the additional time for the rebooting, and the fact that you show this ad at the beginning of every section you have ...it is super annoying and makes me want to turn it off. I really wish it worked better, as I love watching this app on the rare occasions that it works right..Whypick1Version: 2.4.1

✓ Basic and hard to useI downloaded the app and tried pasting my email address in. The email field on the login screen doesn’t respond to copy and paste commands. What a no-brainer. Why are you making me type out my email address? Why aren’t you supporting sign in with Apple or other services? Try using it as a user and you’ll see it’s not user friendly..Sean808080Version: 5.9.3

✓ BrokenDon’t use this app. You have to restart the app every single time you want to use it because it will just crash and freeze upon opening. Find one that’s not broken..ConorodohertyVersion: 6.0.1

✓ Can’t see the video because of controlsIt would be nice to be able to see the video at the top of the screen but you float the controls over it and fade the video so you can’t see anything..Droobie-DooVersion: 2.4.1

✓ Very annoying!Every other streaming app allows you to turn off the auto play feature. Very frustrating having the weather Blair to at you nonstop while you are trying to read the description of a movie..Ozzzy4444Version: 6.2.0

✓ Always freezing and bufferingI love this app cause I drive for lyft, and I have a tv in my car. this news tells everything that’s going on in my city, plus weather. so when I pick up passengers that are visiting from other states. it shows them restaurants etc in the area ,and what they are rated as well . But my only problem is I have to keep restarting it over, because it would freeze on me, and buffer as well. It would pop up with a white screen, and stay on that screen while the audio sound of it, moves on to the next segment. If this problem could be fixed,it would definitely be a 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️s for me ….Mr Giles 38Version: 6.0.1

✓ Casting optionApp is good but I would love the ability to cast it to chromecast to watch instead of my small phone screen. If the capability is already there I haven’t been able to find it on iphone 13 pro..Tonyrog3Version: 5.9.2

✓ Used to be informativeBut now that the pandemic is being forced upon us they have gotten really sad. I used to watch this every Saturday for good new restaurants, events and news, but now it is all Covid and crap. Deleting..R6RiderVersion: 4.5

✓ Thumbs downIn a short time I heard the same stories repeated over and over. They said “here are the lottery numbers” but didn’t say them. If you didn’t look you didn’t get them. Several things were not for radio listeners, only for watchers. I wanted a radio app, not a TV app. Whoa, here comes a story for the third time I will delete the app now..BeatlesndogsVersion: 4.5

✓ Too many commercials, but still somewhat good.Every time it goes to like “Houston! It’s time for Lunch” or look at the local radar it just keeps saying the same thing over and over again. But I still would somewhat recommend this app in case you need it. Say for example Power outages or Severe storms. It’s kinda still of great app. 🙂.Rivercameron090Version: 5.6

✓ Not a news appI thought this would be a news aggregator, but I couldn’t find anything but weather and movies for sale. There is no news on this app..BobbobbitybowrtsonthethirddVersion: 5.5

✓ Totally inaccessible with voiceover on iOSI heard great things about this app and it’s content. I also think the concept is a wonderful idea. However, I am totally blind and use voiceover on my iPhone. After launching the app, it does not work with voiceover so, I’m unable to try it..Ryanrain2Version: 5.6
