First Coast News Jacksonville for Negative User Reviews

✓ Not up to dateConstantly dropping and closing the app. The state news showed the same news blurbs for a week, along with same advertising on every block, if there were 8 blocks, u saw the same darn thing. Breaking news wasn’t really breaking news, it would still be there hours and days old. Some aren’t worthy of that classification. Then that same bit of news is in local, then in state... jeepers can’t you find anything to fill it’s spot, this a whole bunch of stuff going on out there, but triplicates isn’t needed much less duplicates. Need a better webmaster..Ladyjmc8Version: 4.32.870042999

✓ Notification settingsI like this app except for the notifications. I have turned off all of the sport notifications but I still get notifications about the jaguar games. I even tried turning the local notifications off so I would stop seeing them because I don’t like football and I don’t want to see anything about football come across my phone. I would really appreciate if the developers of this app would make it so someone who has the football notifications turned off doesn’t see anything about football..CosmiclemurgirlVersion: 42.10.17

✓ Not everything is breaking newsThe alerts that are sent out from this app are a bit much. I can understand if something is truly breaking news. When you send an alert that a school in S Florida will be going back next week- that’s not breaking news and can wait until the noon news. When alerts are sent, they should be clear. Sending an alert that several schools are on lockdown but not listing the names of the schools is simply trying to create fear. Please do better!.Disneybelle1Version: 4.27.840033443

✓ New changesThe new and so called improvements made to this site is not liked. The improvements made does not impress me and others. The old website was much easer to navigate from story to story. It’s time for a change, by your web designer or by people following another news source..TurbobjackVersion: 41.4.3

✓ CrashesAlways crashing! I have updated my phone, even gotten a new phone and I still cannot read a whole news story without the app crashing. Love FCN just need to update app..GingeymomVersion: 4.32.870042999

✓ Squashing bugsKeep in mind be original. The updates have always been there to keep the app secure, not for “squashing bugs”. Don’t make the app another Google early 500 change updates so you can say squash bugs and left work early. The bottom line is simple “militate” security and software integrity. We don’t squash bugs as a programmer with update protect the consumers identity, and provide accurate and non censored content. It’s what distinguishes you from the BS going on at the trillion mess Silicon Valley has brought upon our country..GETEVERSURFERVersion: 42.10.17

✓ Terrible AppThis app is ridiculous. I can’t ever access the stories due to having to “swipe up” on an ad to access the story. No matter how many times I attempt to “swipe up”, I’m not able to see the news story. What a pain. No thanks. News4jax is the way to go..SoulShine75Version: 4.32.870042999

✓ I would love this app but....I have all notifications turned off but weather. All weekend long my phone blew up with NFL draft updates. I don’t care one bit about football so it was very annoying. I also get news notifications. Really everything but weather. The app shows all my notifications (but weather) off so I’m not sure why my phone and watch get constant notifications of everything. I’m going to have to remove the app. Even though GMJ and FCN Is the news I choose I’m going to have to find another news app that the notifications off really mean off..AJ32310Version: 42.4.12

✓ Horrible APPI love First Coast News! It’s my favorite source for local news. The app is horrendous! It drops videos while you are trying to watch some breaking news. Or, if it doesn’t drop the video, it doubles up on the voice, like an echo, so you can’t even hear what they’re saying. I will get a notification, then will go to the app, and it’s not even showing up anywhere! That has happened several times! Please fix this app! I want to love it!.PvbmakVersion: 42.6.45

✓ Rook for improvementThere’s always loading issues and every time I click on “Watch Live” a commercial starts first and delays what I should’ve seen live. Otherwise, the format is decent compared to our other local channels.WhiteNinja76Version: 44.3

✓ Too much emphasis on reporting crimeAt times, I have to wonder if the only news being reported is what is available from the local police blotter. Business news is largely ignored. An out of towner relying on this app for local news would likely be aghast at the amount of crime taking place in the city. Crime, crime and automobile accidents, mostly with injuries. Isn’t there ever anything positive to report?.Fear the HatVersion: 4.32.870042999

✓ Less than user friendlyIf I don’t return to home page before closing app, the next time I return to the site the little circle just goes round and round ant the site never opens. I have to completely delete the site then reload it from the App Store.N330CVersion: 43.7.16

✓ Recent change in format.I relocated from Philadelphia to JAX in September and found ABC/First Coast News to be very “flat.” I stopped watching it. This morning, I tuned in to get local weather, there’s been a major change, for the better, in the anchors and overall production/format!! I’m very happy to have a local news station again, that’s informative, professional and energized. Well done!!!.DagnysdadVersion: 42.12.20

✓ Poor FCN App design and not user friendly!Your updated FCN App is poorly designed and is not user friendly, particularly in attempting to go to the sections I wanted to read. The prior version was very well done and had great navigation. If there was a rating well below zero (0) stars, then I would rate it at least negative quintillion stars below zero (0)..FraudAbuseFighterVersion: 42.3.15

✓ Latest newsEasy to connect to the stories from the notifications with minimal distraction from ads..LafloridienneVersion: 42.11.8
