WSOC-TV for Negative User Reviews
✓ Ads are ridiculousOver the years this app has gotten worse and worse. Every video starts with an ad, which for many news stories is in very poor taste. Now they have ads that pop up every few seconds on their articles so one cannot even really read them. I finally just deleted the app and will get local news elsewhere..Version: 6.2.2
✓ Opens with an adUnfortunately this last update makes the app open with an ad that my ad filter blocks, so the app doesn’t open for me on my home network. I’m not going to use data to use it ... so I have to go elsewhere for local news. Fix it please!.Version: 7.0.0
✓ I have never in my life seen recurved such spam notificationsEven after adjusting notification settings, disabling certain alerts like sports- I still get every single one. Most mornings I’ve gotten 2 or 3 notifications before the sun is even up, usually about some meaningless drivel that is not even kind of relevant to me. I want breaking news. I do not want notifications from my trusted local station telling me that Will Smith said sorry for slapping Chris Rock. I don’t want notifications about the Panthers POSSIBLY finding a new place to practice. This is not the breaking news that we want, and it does nothing except drown out the real stories when they do occur. 18 notifications a day is not okay..Version: 8.5
✓ Biased Towards DemocratsWSOC-TV, along with the Charlotte Observer, are very biased towards Democrats rather than being impartial. Also, some of the News Articles remain on this site for days or weeks without being replaced by something new. Please stop sensationalizing weather events as they’re invariably made more of than they are actually. Causes people to fear, panic and rush grocery stores. Do not like the layout. It’s not appealing. I don’t use Twitter; so, I don’t want to read news from Twitter..Version: 7.0.2
✓ Unstable and old videosThe app has outdated content along with issues with playing the videos. Very frustrating trying to find the latest weather forecast since it keeps defaulting on 2 days old video. Way toi much ad on display too.Version: 8.4.4
✓ It’s playing double audio since updateAudio n video errors need to be fixed immediately; I can’t watch it even just read because automatically the app opens with audio playing. If I try to pick something else the original audio n new audio plays at same time. Then at times the video doesn’t open with error showing but audio playing someone but another audio is playing as well. Very annoying and I literally hate opening the app now, but sometimes I want to read and update in a story and there goes that audio, geez. Please please please fix asap..Version: 8.8.3
✓ Restaurant reviewsWhy is it so difficult to read the reviews. I tried for over 10 minutes to read the September reviews and finally gave up. Why does your report on N Myrtle Beach 4 day trip keep blacking out after a few seconds?.Version: 8.7.7
✓ Notifications are ridiculous!I was getting far too many notifications daily so I changed it to only breaking news and the weather but that didn’t help. For months I kept receiving all notifications. I just changed it to ONLY WEATHER notifications today and as soon as I changed it I received a breaking news notification in less than 5 minutes after updating so the notification customization doesn’t work. I can’t take it anymore so I turned off all notifications. The app barely works when you click on the notification to see the story anyway and there’s far too many advertisements..Version: 5.9.2
✓ Ads in the middle that don’t moveThe new ad placement is terrible. I can’t read the news without the ad being in the way. I understand you need to generate revenue, but I will never use a company who advertises with you because of that ridiculous placement..Version: 8.7.5
✓ Improve search and limit adsI like the news alerts but when I click on an alert to see the story I cannot find it. The alert should link directly to the story. The search feature rarely works. The ads are invasive. I have tried to use this app to no avail. Take some lessons from The New York Times. Their app is awesome.Version: 7.5.0
✓ My reviewThe main thing is the way the race card is played, you don’t have to make everything a black or white thing. Next Y’all never change the sport section it will have the same head lines for a week.Version: 8.6
✓ Live on AppPlease take the live off of the app! It is annoying to have there!! Not to mention it gets stuck and you can't make it go up alot of the time!.Version: 8.8.3
✓ Love the appPlease keep it free and without ads!! Please remain neutral on reporting, no political biased views, please!! Let our Police do there job, lots of your news makes it out that they are the “criminal.”.Version: 8.4.4
✓ ReviewYou write an article and only give us part of the story and end it with a statement that this is a developing story and to check v bc later for detail but that’s usually the end of it. Never hear what actually happened..Version: 8.8.7
✓ Used to be betterI liked their app much better in the past. More recently I keep getting alerts for nothing alert worthy, practically “it may rain tomorrow “ type stuff, or the equivalent of “it is cold out.” In the past I only received the severe weather alerts. I check my settings, should be just severe weather. Also, when I click on the app for the “weather alert” I get a screen full of advertisements instead of seeing the alert..Version: 8.7
✓ App is the worst everI’ve emailed them about the app not working and someone contacted me back and said they would forward my email. At first I thought it was my TV but when I tried it on a different TV/brand I realized it was the app because it did the same thing. I emailed them over and over and over again and no one would respond. They don’t care about the app not working. They just need to get rid of the app all together it is horrible!!!.Version: 6.5.0
✓ Need to changeTo many commercials and when you click on a story it doesn’t show the video that goes with the story. I scroll down to see video of other stories. You just have to watch all the news I guess that I don’t want to see and I assume eventually it gets to my story. So I usually have to back out and start over. Shouldn’t have to do this..Version: 8.8.3
✓ Basically unusable.Links to “continue reading” an article take you to subscription only pages. The ads below every single article are often very gross: earwax? graphic images of belly fat to advertise weight loss??? Come on. Stories are repeated so often, sometimes my feed has 4 articles on the same topic. Not to mention half the time my page goes completely blank while I’m in the middle of reading an article. I think I’ll get my news from somewhere else..Version: 8.5.2
