NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth News for Negative User Reviews

✓ News Will ComeOverall, a really great application that keeps you informed on the news, weather, sports and regional events. In exchange for this service they require that the viewer watch a commercial or two but to the extreme. On several occasions, was presented back-to/back with as many as eleven (11) commercials before being able to view severe weather and traffic announcements. Many of the commercials were actually about NBC 5. As commercials fund the station and network it is expected to occasionally view one but not being able to access up-to-date life threatening events makes them past history. I can go to other channels to view history. Perhaps a filter could be implemented to stop or limit commercials during these presentations..Carmine217Version: 6.1

✓ Pathetic mobile app - shameful political biasThe NBC 5 Dallas-FW news & weather app has been deleted from my phone! Like so many others, I stopped watching the TV version of this subtly sneaky platform of extreme left political bias a long time ago but attempted to use only the weather feature of the mobile app. However, the app itself is fraught with bugs and is a nuisance to use, support from the most sophisticated hardware and iOS, notwithstanding. Most of the faces NBC 5 presents to its audience nightly as so-called journalists and reporters on TV exude WOKEism and constantly present a grossly obvious group-think and shamelessly unfair narrative. …drip drip drip.Tdg - Fort Worth TxVersion: 7.7.1

✓ Map portion of app still horribleOne year since this weather update and it’s still horrible. I hoped you would fix the weather related map issues. I would rather see the map past, not start at 90% of a possible future. Im convinced that most people probably think the map run IS the past. Why don’t you guys do a poll to see, you’d probably be shocked at the responses. If the weather is really bad there is no way to change the view with one hand. Please remember people that use your map are probably not safe at home and and able to control the screen. They are probably driving or walking through bad weather. Your mapping app does not help if a person is in these situations. Your map portion of the app is not user friendly at all. Why is that? Please fix the map back the way it was before..T AlvarezVersion: 6.17

✓ NBC5DFW AppUntil today, I would have rated it four stars. We live in a rural area and NBC 5 is one of the few stations we can receive over the air, OTA. Having lived through years of rip-offs, I don’t consider satellite TV as an option. Today, the areas OTA TV reception was being impacted by an inversion layer, so we thought we would stream NBC 5 DFW, like mentioned almost every morning on the news, “now stream live on Apple TV”. That lasted about 15 minutes before a login was required and a request for a TV provider popped up. The weathermap is useful, but is no longer presents a live presentation. The News streaming requires a subscription and the weather app is slowly devolving to something less than useful, so this may become an unused app real soon..RWB236Version: 6.11.1

✓ I’m getting rid of my app!I’m sitting here watching the NBC Townhall with Donald Trump and the moderator. Savanah Guthrie has done nothing but talked and argued with Donald Trump instead of letting the audience ask questions which is what you’re suppose to do in a townhall! Even when the audience asks question and Donald Trump answers the questions, Samantha Guthrie interrupts him and starts going after him!! I will not watch your channel ever again! If you’re going to advertise that’s it’s a town hall then make the moderator stay out of it. She was ridiculous! Trump shut her down and made her look stupid and she looked totally biased and it was obvious she was a Biden surrogate!!! She is a joke as a reporter and journalist!!! I’m pulling my app and shutting it down! I will have Fox local app instead of NBC app. NBC has forgotten that they are suppose to be fair and balanced!!! No way!!!.RrabdVersion: 6.15

✓ Weather RadarIt seems something changed with the weather radar. When viewing the radar in motion, I find the historical weather activity (ex storm movement) more useful than the predicted future movement. Something seems to have changed where they only show a small portion, maybe 30 minutes, of past cloud/storm movement. It is easy to tell when a storm is coming your way, when you can see where it has been. This small historical sample makes that harder..BfolchVersion: 6.14

✓ V7 Redesign is TerribleThis was absolutely my go-to app for local weather & news for years; however, the complete redesign a few months ago has made it almost unusable. The new design is clunky and inefficient. The landing page for the current weather only gives a 2 hour window instead of the entire day. Scrolling to the 10 day forecast lands at a full screen of the following day details first (none of which are weather by the way) and then you scroll to a condensed list for the remaining 8 days. All this and you still don’t know the immediate forecast for today or tomorrow. Who designed this? Please bring back the utility & ease of use of the previous v6 app..Gdahl87Version: 7.1

✓ Failing to Load, devs trying to kill an app?? 🤔The last 2-3 updates have completely made the app unusable. For pretext I set up my app to load in the weather section with what used to be a “live radar,” the NBC 5 radar. Since NBC DFW owns and operates their own radar it means that they are able to directly publish new radar data every minute. This is what brought me to the app, as nbc’s data will be the most updated and reliable source. About one or two updates ago some change made the radar almost unusable and seemed to inhibit the app refreshing and loading new data. The most recent update has actually made the app unusable, nothing is loading in! I constantly get a “URLSessionTask failed with error: The request timed out.” on my screen before the app can even load in one piece of data. I’ve forced the app closed multiple times to reopen it to no avail and have uninstalled twice now as well. NBC 5 your app just kept getting worse over time and you finally have tried to kill it. Hopefully your dev team can get stuff back on track. P.s. like lots of other comments, GET RID OF THE ADS DURING BREAKING NEWS OR WEATHER EVENTS. K thx byeee..CirikkatiVersion: 7.3.2

✓ Weather on your appWhy did you permanently change your weather app from the general view to the satellite view, with NO option of going back to the other version?!! I’m still able to tap on a weather system, but instead of having a succinct breakdown of that system, I’m now given this two page info chart that I have to try to decipher and interpret. I do not like it at all, and wish you’d change it back, or at least give us the option of doing so!.Kb teacherVersion: 6.11.1

✓ Best weather worst appFor the love of God, separate the weather app and fix the UI and touch input. NBC has the best weather in DFW but this app is so bad it’s frustrating. The snap feature with the weather map is infuriatingly bad. Every time I scroll left-right on the hourly forecast, the map snaps open/closed no matter how careful I am to only scroll side to side. The advertisement background of the forecast screen is annoying at best. I’d pay to remove it. The widget is the closest to stock IOS but it’s too buggy to use reliably. I really want to use only this app for weather but I can’t stand the issues and I’ve given this feedback many times and the developers don’t care..TopherMario33Version: 6.10.3

✓ This app is almost perfect but not quiteI love the idea behind this app but the execution is just not there. You can’t do anything without the live stream of NBC freaking out! I wanted to adjust my screens light so I pulled down the utilities menu on my phone. When I slid up it sent me straight back to the home page of the app. I went back to watch the stream and it came up with a service error, which always happens. I refresh it and it normally will work but it’s more than just trying to adjust something and the app reopening. I like to rotate and expand my videos but it is so fidgety!! There is no place to rotate the screen or zoom in/ out, therefore you can’t see the titles on news broadcasts, almost all of the time. It is so frustrating that I can’t manually press a rotation button. I’m left with it broadcasted tiny on the upper part of my screen because even when it does rotate to be bigger it almost always will go back to its small size on the upper half of my phone, even when in a horizontal position. Oh and when it falls flat on a surface it does the same thing. As I have said previously, the idea is great but the little errors get super frustrating and the videos don’t load 80% of the time... I’ll still keep this app but with a little frustration. It could all be due to maybe a new update needed or something..Version: 6.2

✓ IPad version hanging periodicallyFor the second time this year (2022), the iPad version of the app hangs IMMEDIATELY upon selecting the Weather tab. I reported this the last time it happened and they suggested deleting and reloading the app, restarting the ipad, updating the iOS version, etc. NONE of those helped. After a couple of hours, it mysteriously began working normally again. Problem just repeated itself today (but I’d not yet working). Throughout the whole deal, the IPHONE version of the app worked fine. Don’t know what broke, but this version no longer very useful…. Hope a newer release returns to better functionality. It’s now Feb. 26, 2023 and the iPad version of this app STILL HANGS!!!!! The iPhone version continues to work well, but the iPad version is BLOODY USELESS! I’d give it ZERO stars if I could!.DGL52Version: 7.8.1

✓ This used to be my go to weather app 🙁What happened! Rick, the weather in this app has gotten worse then just going to the website. I used to count on you guys to stay weather aware and safe. The storm tracks, warnings and animation speed are awful now. I had to download a more accurate radar. Now I have to watch the weather here then open another app when I want to see where the storm is going. Please fix the radar back the way it was!.Teabear200Version: 6.11
