FOX 4 Dallas-Fort Worth: News for Negative User Reviews
✓ Always a Liberal Slant in a Conservative State. Very FrustratingOnly use it for local news and sometimes weather. Also have to look past multiple and numerous grammatical mistakes in every article. This is frustrating coming from a news organization. Half the time the articles read as though they were written by a news bot..Version: 4.3.3800
✓ Never works, loads, and the voicing is always off trackThis app barely works from the live streaming to the video playback. Frequently the voicing is way off and the same tracks overlap each other distorting the sound and making the news reports inaudible. I’ve always updated the app and my IOS but it still doesn’t work properly. I’ve had the app for a year and try it every morning while getting ready. Please fix the bugs!.Version: 4.3.4202
✓ AppReally don’t like that pictures available frequently are NOT in the article so you can’t actually see it. Tonight it’s a loose inmate. Can’t see the picture. Before it was a murdered police officer. Can’t see that person. Little thumbnails then nothing in the article except maybe a video which I’ve by now read so only want to see the attached picture that isn’t there..Version: 5.6.1
✓ DeficienciesTwo things about your app are most annoying. First, on the news feed, the same stories show up over and over, in random order, and they are often outdated. There is no organization to the page (Top stories, Local, National, etc.). Second, unlike most of your competitors, I cannot change the location on the weather page, much less save several favorite locations. And, please, don’t say get the WAPP. Why should I need, or want, two apps. None of the other local stations do that. I’d give you no stars, it it would let me. Thank you..Version: 5.25.0
✓ Not receiving notificationsI have local news apps for myself as well as other cities where my adult children live. I receive multiple push notifications throughout the day from each of them (for example KRON 4 in the SF Bay Area notifies me of earthquakes, as well as other important news. But I don’t get push notifications from this App FoxDallas, even though I have the Notifications toggle turned on. I would have expected to receive notifications about the tornado, yet I did not. I’m disappointed and hope that I will receive more notifications about important Dallas/Allen news from this app..Version: 5.6.1
✓ Too many IssuesI love Fox News, but this app needs some serious work. When watching the broadcast if my phone alarm goes off or I have to swap screens to answer a text when I flip back I have to watch a 60 second commercial or if I adjust my brightness on my phone, not even close the app, and it restarts with another 60 second commercial and then I lose where I was in the news cast and often cannot back it up by that point. Please fix these issues and it will be a stellar app....Version: 5.18.2
✓ Recent update gone wrongI’ve never had issues with FOX 4 app watching the DFW news. But as of the last four days, I am unable to view any live feed from the fox for Dallas studio. All of it is national news. Watch Orlando news on DFW live link. please fix this issue. If there’s a weather emergency, many people don’t have cable or access to regular TV. This is the only way I’m able to watch television without having an antenna..Version: 5.42.0
✓ Used to be pretty good appThis was the only news app I’ve had since I got my first smartphone. Now I get disgusted every time I open the app. When you scroll down the home page, they show about 5 or 6 stories over and over again. You like that story? Good. Scroll down a little further and you can read it again and again. C’mon guys. You made the changes. Did you ever even look at it?.Version: 5.8.0
✓ No visual pictures with storiesThis is the second time I’ve downloaded this app. Initially, i didn’t recall the reason I previously deleted it. Two days into using the app, I’m frustrated to recall the reason. I’m dumbfounded to find there is only a single thumbnail picture available for each news article, which promptly disappears upon opening the story. Therefore, once opening the page to read a story, the only visuals available are large advertisements. Nothing correlating with the news article. It’s unbelievable that such a long-standing, reputable news outlet in a large city to have such low standards in decimating news..Version: 5.6.1
✓ No longer readableI used this app daily for years. Something has drastically changed. The recent update is awful. Stories are repeated two or three times, content is nonexistent or poorly worded. Use of AP reported content instead of locally written. I deleted your app. Makes me sad that something that was once very well done has turned into something I can no longer tolerate. I gave you three starts for past success - currently I would give you a one..Version: 5.22.0
✓ Great app, horrible ads that interrupt the storiesLove the layout, easy to check local news stories. Easy to navigate around. But, there are too many ads thrown in between the paragraphs. You almost think the article is completed, then you scroll further, and there's the rest of the article. Very irritating, and a huge nuisance and a waste of my time and the "data" to have to scroll thru so much garbage. Recipes are awful, ingredients missing, or steps left out. And the pictures..the food hardly looks appetizing..Version: 4.3.4202
✓ Miss the old appSome update within the last year really killed the user-friendliness of one of my formerly favorite apps. “Watch live no longer” functions without an “active” screen (as in touching the screen every 30 seconds to keep the screen from locking). It used to be my go-to app every morning, now I just open it once or twice a month to check for any signs of the previous interface being reverted..... You’re still my favorite news team, though!.Version: 5.10.0
✓ Grammar and Spell Check!!!!!!!I appreciate quick access to local news and the app has stopped crashing as often since the latest update. Unfortunately, the writing is terrible. Granted I don't have a degree in journalism but I do know proper English. Most articles on Fox 4 tend toward horrid. What is the editor doing? Is there not a copywriter on staff? Is there no one capable of proofreading?!.Version: 4.3.3800
✓ Live View is AwfulI travel for work but like to keep current on local news. The live app has just gotten worse and worse. It used to be reliable but since the greed for all the advertisement has been added, it's less than dependable. It pauses and you miss the headline after coming back from break. Luckily the CBS and NBC affiliates work better so I can watch them and keep current. The readable news stories are good and usually work well. Hopefully the developer will get some help in developing a reliable app..Version: 4.3.4202
✓ Love Fox 4 but hate the appCommercials come in fine, but the live broadcast on the app “rewinds” and then plays on top of itself. Sounds like two separate programs running. I have deleted the app and reloaded it. I have made sure my phone has all updates and I still have problems. But then it works when the commercials are on. Don’t have this problem with other apps that stream. Maybe it is that it is live. Idk..Version: 4.3.4202
✓ Redesign is awfulRecent update basically makes it look like the website, which is super disorganized. The app also now contains fewer articles due to the overlap of their “sections”. I already miss the clean quick way you could get all the important local news. I will be looking at other local news apps because if I wanted their terrible website I’d go to it. This app will no longer be one of the first things I open in the morning..Version: 5.6.1
✓ App update has broken “watch live”One star. Unfortunately. now read content only. Used daily to stream news. Getting error “Server Error unfortunately something went wrong try again later”. Same result when try again. Same result when updated app. Same result after complete delete of app and reinstall. Plus the app support link in the App Store sends you to a “page not recognized”. What incompetence with quality testing and messaging to end users..Version: 5.31.5
✓ I am done with this app.Constant re-wracks where the tape literally backs up and then repeats and repeats small segments of previously viewed content. Latency. Takes forever to load. Commercials constantly start, re-start and re-start during commercial breaks. It’s enough to drive one nuts! I’m switching to NBC affiliate. At least they run promos and the content doesn’t stall and restart over and over again. The news content flows without interruption. Am I seeing a pattern here? Ch. 5’s app runs smoothly and yours does NOT!!! It’s obviously not my carrier or my computer (nor the iPad). It is ALL Ch. 4’s problem. NO stars from me..Version: 4.3.4202
✓ Does not provide updated news itemsEspecially the sports section: articles are several days old. Very few up to date items and certainly little or no breaking news reports. News lead stories are also several days old in many cases. It also appears that no one has responsibility to update articles when the situation progresses. Focus seems to be more in pushing advertising than reporting current news. Sorry. But that is my opinion..Version: 5.49.0
