CBS Minnesota for Negative User Reviews

✓ Pop up advertisementsNow you have ads that pop up in the middle of reading an article…they are 4seconds long and you can’t delete them. Will not succumb to this crap. I’m done/deleted..AsaewrmVersion: 1.5.0

✓ Too bad!It’s interesting how all these companies feel they constantly need to upgrade, and that someone thinks it’s better. Probably tied to advertising and revenue generation, more tracking and selling to third parties. Fortunately Apple released their own weather app recently on IOS 16.3. Bye bye WCCO!.Frustrated in MPLSVersion: 1.6.0

✓ It crashes every time.I would like to use it. But, I haven’t yet been able to. It crashes every time I try to use it..Chuck in St PaulVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Bring old app back - new one isn’t stableCan’t even watch the news on the new app because the voices cut in and out. Yesterday and today. Old app was way better. Accidentally deleted old app and wish didn’t..Nicknametry1290896745Version: 1.0.16

✓ Never updated the newsI downloaded this app yesterday. It loaded news then, but has never updated. It notifies me of new stories, but they aren’t in the app. Only yesterday’s news is there. I deleted the worthless app..Minn1165Version: 1.1.0

✓ FreezesI want to like the app, but it freezes up every time and I can barely even get it to close. I also don’t understand why I keep getting directed to safari when I tap on Weather. what’s the point of an app if it’s just going to take me to the website?.PrincessH75Version: 1.0.16

✓ I want to love it but it crashes before I can do anything.From the 20 seconds I’ve been able to stay in the app, I love the format, and the ability to quickly navigate to a live stream... but I’ve been trying all morning to even just scroll headlines and it crashes almost immediately..Alexisj107Version: 1.0.16

✓ Unusable... slows the phoneImpossible to use it looks like my phone freezes and it takes multiple seconds to move from one link to another. After installing and removing twice, giving up. Every single time I removed the app phone went back to normal. Weird..FRancoisfmgVersion: 1.0.16

✓ App keeps crashingI can’t be in the app more than 20 seconds before it crashes. I’m going back to the old app....at least then I could actually read the news for more than 20 seconds.ShdjrkgVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Crashes ConstantlyI’m looking for important news about my state at a critical time and, while it seems to have no problems sending out constant notifications, the app crashes almost immediately after opening. Such a shame, because it looks like it would be a good app to use if only it could be used. Fix this please..DddddddeeeeeewwwwwVersion: 1.0.16

✓ New appThis new app is horrible. Loads and then disappears before you can read the headlines. Once you tap on it within the site it again disappears before. Let’s go back to the old app!!! At least I could read headlines and news.June andersonVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Barely usableCrowded, messy interface that is absolutely loaded with ads - in fact, there are more ads per page than there is « news » and the ads constantly reload as you attempt to scroll through them, meaning that all your scrolling will be for naught as you’ll eventually wind up back where you started..Ex-BelieverVersion: 1.5.0

✓ Slow, Freezes and CrashesI like the layout of the app. Everything is right where you need it. The app is too slow, freezes and crashes. Takes too long to be able to close out the app..Jack0451Version: 1.0.16

✓ Great station but app needs workWhen I click on links or notifications to specific stories they seem to never open on the app. Instead, I’m either brought to the homepage to find the story on my own or to a page that seems to not load. I like the station too much to give up on it but please fix the app..AebatistaVersion: 1.7.0

✓ Too many screen taps required and slowerAll I care about is the news. Old app I tapped news twice and all the current articles were loaded. This new app loads 3 articles at start and then you have to hit “more news”. It loads 3 more then you hit “more news” again and again. 3 articles at a time. Takes longer to load them then to read them..Lonlyb0yVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Next-to-Nothing Weather appThey have removed what was good about their weather app and replaced it with minimal information. No weather map. Poor hourly and daily info. It appears they want you to watch the old weather videos. Who has time for that? I want the information quickly which the old app served excellently. This app makes Next Weather into Next-to-Nothing Weather..LPeterE27Version: 1.6.0

✓ Not a replacement for CBS Minnesota Weather AppOn March 31, 2023 WCCO TV is ending support of the fantastic CBS Minnesota Weather App. They say as a replacement, download their CBS Minnesota app. The weather info has next to nothing that the weather app had. No radar, hard to use. I am going to Fox 9 weather app as a real replacement, that is Next Weather..Jet9990Version: 1.6.0

✓ CBS WCCO NEWS APPNice color scheme is the best I can say about the APP at this 5/30. It crashes after opening in 10 seconds. Not worth the battery power to load it up. Fix it or get rid of it..News reader 4Version: 1.0.16

✓ Don’t bother.Adds, Adds, Adds. And you just watch adds before you can see any news/weather videos. AND, the adds freeze and restart. Loads of irritation. I had the app for 5 minutes and deleted it..Ran'DVersion: 1.3.0

✓ UnstableCloses every time I open it. I look at one thing, scroll and it closes. I was really looking forward to using this app. Disappointed..Suz98760Version: 1.0.16

✓ Dante WrightI am applaud at the amount of continued coverage WCCO has been giving to Dante Wright pertaining to the Kim Potter trial and sentencing. Where is the equality now!! The sentence has been given. Like it or not. Why do you continue to show protestor after protestor saying the same thing? Why didn’t they protest when the guy shot the coach several months ago on 169? Silence! Why is there no protests on the beautiful black children that have been shot? Silence! Why didn’t you show the Potter supporters? Let’s report on some positive news for a change. WCCO has become a puppet. You have lost this viewer and many more..DonewithCCOVersion: 1.5.0

✓ Worthless!!!I decided to give this app another try BUT I continue to be disappointed. This app is rudimentary at best and totally annoying all the time. Please, you can do better than this! Nine times out of ten, when I get a breaking news headline and want to find out more, I have to search for the story. I would hope to see that story presented up front but no, I have go through the weeds to find it. My previous review: I am a big fan of WCCO but this app is worthless. It does not meet my expectations for a premium broadcaster. I hate to be so negative and rarely give bad reviews but this app is so bad I have decided to remove it from my iPad and iPhone. You need to hire an actual app developer, not a rookie, to fix this thing..LHSQueenVersion: 1.3.0

✓ No current weather mapMight be good for some, but I like to look at the weather map to determine myself how soon the weather will be affecting me. This app has no way to get to a weather map like the CBS Minnesota Weather app had. Very disappointing. So, I have switched to Fox 9 weather app..MJ PythonVersion: 1.6.0

✓ Keeps crashingI can usually stay in the app for about 10-15 seconds until it closes itself..E BergmdVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Frustrating and unusableAs others have noted, the format is well conceived. Unfortunately the usability is the opposite. Jerky scrolling, some links will not open and others open while scrolling. 👎.DonminnVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Always crashes!Can’t even get to a story before this app shuts down. Why don’t you fix it?.MunstenteigerVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Constantly CrashingOne of the most unstable apps. Has potential, but until that issue is resolved it is worthless. Your competitors have managed to get it right.DMGilsdorfVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Crash every timeUltra slow. Too many clicks to see more news. And worse is crash every single time I try to use it..Toops73Version: 1.0.16

✓ Want more complete CURRENT weatherOld app has radar and layers that I cannot find on this all purpose app Likewise, news is not easy to read in full..PuzzahVersion: 1.6.0

✓ Not viewer friendlyThere are one star complaints 1 and 2 years old that could have been fixed by now but haven’t been. The format is not full screen, and looks like the annoying vertical videos that too many mobile phone users feed to TV newsrooms..D*aveVersion: 1.5.0

✓ CrashesI can't use this app. I am on an older iPod using iOS 12.4.7 which is as new as I can go. From the start, this app froze and watching the news or weather live cause it to crash Very frustrating. I usually can check the current weather and forecast so that is something. I originally stayed with the old app, but that is not an option any longer. Attachment.CgmtVersion: 1.0.16

✓ TerribleFreezes and crashes constantly. Someone needs to be working on this app constantly. It says the last update was 2 months ago..PEM29Version: 1.0.16

✓ Poorly organizedWhen I get an alert on my phone with a breaking story or news update, I click on the alert and expect it to open to the story to read more. However, 9/10 times the story is nowhere to be found. Where am I supposed to read more about it? Or should I be watching the live link? Poorly organized and super frustrating to users who want to stay on top of the news. Instead, it just opens to the main page of the app..Buster*1Version: 1.0.16

✓ Guess I will get weather and news elsewhereNot a robust app. Nor intuitive to find anything. Weather is less than half the information of the current app they are discontinuing. Current app. Makes it easy to follow weather elsewhere as well. Sad as I have always liked WCCO weather best but won’t put up with hassle..“New” weather appVersion: 1.6.0

✓ Crashes constantlyPlease FIX this app. I liked your old app; it was reliable and I could watch the news on it. This app is awful! It takes forever to load, is sized for a phone screen and crashes every time I try to watch live. WCCO is my go-to local news station, but this app’s shortcomings is forcing me to go to the KARE11 for my news. I’m definitely not happy. Fix this nightmare of an app or support the old one, PLEASE..PinkPartyPantsVersion: 1.0.16

✓ UseI find the app clunky to use. I go to weather and I see the meteorologists. Not the same for news or sports. Once in a while it pops up but it’s not consistent..Tricky MumsVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Poor QCJuly 4 comment: When is this defective abomination going to get fixed? Over a month of negative feedback and no action from the company. June 12 first review: Can’t use the app if it crashes within seconds of launching...which it does every time. And it’s not just the CBS MN version, this issue affects this app localized for other CBS-operated stations. iPhone6, latest iOS.212.10036Version: 1.0.16

✓ WebsiteYour website needs to be updated, take a look at your competitors, yours is truly behind the times!!.𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗶𝗲 𝗕𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻Version: 1.5.0

✓ WeatherYou don’t even have weather on a NEWS app? I went to see weather information while on this brand new app and it brings me to a safari website. You’ve gone from a bad app to a worse one. Look at the other local news apps for some ideas..K*herVersion: 1.0.16

✓ Get with the programUpdate your app to be more compatible with a tablet. Every other news source has figured this out..Chet55Version: 1.7.0

✓ No Screen Video OrientationApple 15.1 version does not allow orientation. Behind the times vs other media news sources. Emails CBS Local App. Requested help with issue, no feedback..DC, Inc.Version: 1.3.0

✓ Inaccurate tabsUnfortunately, getting an alert on my phone to watch “live news” is pointless. When I open the app and press one of a few red buttons saying “LIVE NEWS” I am led to absurd advertisements about swimwear and vacations or national news shows - and the live news that I’m seeking may be happening - but I can’t find it via this app. Very disappointing. I won’t be seeking my news via this app any more. I would give this negative stars if I could, based on the misleading, non-functioning app as I consider finding news a serious matter..SheboobooVersion: 1.7.0

✓ Quits constantlyPlease fix. Constant delay then quits. Works for half a story and quits again. Please fix. Need up to date news on my phone..BKind_JodiVersion: 1.0.16

✓ News apI find this news app to be some power. It is not refreshed often, some stories are a week old, and you can only see the top three stories unless you keep scrolling down to look for more. Very disappointing for a big news station. And on Sunday night, I check the weather for the week under the next weather app on your site and it gave weather from Friday. That is disgraceful. Get on the ball with updating the site please..Disappointed in RosevilleVersion: 1.7.0

✓ Doesn’t work right on iPadIt won’t rotate with the screen so it just looks like the iPhone app. I would love to see the screen rotate and then watch full screen..BearpawqsVersion: 1.0.16
