WCPO 9 Cincinnati for Negative User Reviews
✓ New update messes up weatherThis was my go-to Cincinnati weather and news app, but with the remake, the weather section is awful. It’s rarely correct with the “feels like” or current temperature. When I try to refresh it, the sections go gray—nothing shows up for the forecast, hourly, daily, etc. Very disappointing!.Version: 7.2
✓ What happened, WCPO?For the vast majority of my life, I have been extremely partial to WCPO. I have gone to WCPO for any and all stories, local, national, and global. When abroad, I would check in on WCPO to see what was going on back home. I went to WCPO on 9/11. Weather? That was always 100% WCPO. Then something happened... This "Insider" racket is the single biggest letdown I could have imagined. Everything that made WCPO great was now only available to those willing to pay for it. And I'm not one of those people. I enjoy tradition and sticking with what I know, but I am not going to pay money to a few enticing stories I can find elsewhere and then a TON of content which is barely even worthy of a click on a free website, much less worth any money on a LOCAL NEWS website. The time the powers to be decided to make the "Signs to watch for in teens for suicidal behavior" or however it was worded a PAID article- every single last bit of respect was lost. I'm guessing it's expensive to keep that overpriced Bell helicopter flying (should have gone with a Robinson), so it's up to the faithful and devoted WCPO readers to foot the bill. I hope they enjoy it, but count me out. Oh- the ads in this app are panic inducing annoying. I KNOW YOU HAVE A HELICOPTER BECAUSE IT HOVERS OVER MY HOUSE ALL THE TIME AND I KNOW YOU HAVE A MORNING SHOW BECAUSE EVERYONE DOES!!! WHY DO YOU THINK I GOT THIS APP?! BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER SEEN A MORNING NEWS SHOW?! Knock it off!!!!.Version: 5.1
✓ Whoever designed the new update should be firedI can't find anything, it took me 10 minutes of searching to find where the weather alerts were listed. And then when I clicked on the link a bunch of pictures of temperatures popped up instead of a list of weather alerts. So I had to download a different news app just to see if there was a thunderstorm warning tonight. Horrible layout and design, the whole minimalist look just isn't working. If you actually would like information on the weather, don't waste your time downloading this app..Version: 3.51
✓ Ad sensitivityDo something about it and this 1 rating becomes a 5.Version: 6.14.1
✓ WCPO = bad journalismDon’t download..Version: 6.14.1
✓ Issues and More Issues!App is frustrating to use due to: 1. predictably aborts after three or four minutes. 2. upon launch, loads content while you are reading and constantly resets back to beginning of list..Version: 6.21
✓ Stories jumping around, constant crashesStories are constantly jumping around in the app as you scroll through and app crashes multiple times a day. Never had these problems until the past six months..Version: 6.30
✓ Can’t log inAnytime I click the app it just takes me right back out of it: fix this and I will change back to 5 stars because I do love this app!!!!.Version: 6.21
✓ News updatesIt seems like there are stories on the app that are outdated and lingering for days..Version: 6.39
✓ Frequent crashingI would like to use this app more often but it is aggravating. It crashes often while scrolling through headlines. Need to fix this!.Version: 6.18
✓ Sorry CoverageI can’t believe there is a news story investigating how often police officers are late to work and what is done about it! How many times do journalist publish stories with less than credible facts? I’m a nurse, not an officer... But for crying out loud! Your health information has to be kept confidential so that it can’t be used against you, but minor infractions like police tardiness make the news... I’m so over this. #DELETE #DontDownload.Version: 6.14.1
✓ 5 to a 2WCPO was my favorite of all the news media apps. However, they are now posting stories or headlines that require you to log or sign in to read. You are given a picture and headline, click on the story and you are given a little bit more, then you are prompted that if you want to read the rest you must log or sign in. I'm sorry WCPO, but I will be deleting this app, if this process continues. If I had that much time, I wouldn't be reading the news through a phone app in the first place, I would be viewing your website from another source. Is the traffic to your website in such demise, that you need your mobile readers to login to read "the rest of the story?" It feels like false advertisement or a lead on to me. I hope this trend does not continue..Version: 3.51
✓ The most recent update added more steps for weather.I use this app to check the Weather daily. Since the update, I now have to do two extra steps in order to see the full hourly weather and the full weekly weather. Before I could see it all in the first page. I understand that the rest of the app may have gotten better, but I know I’m going to have to download a Weather app that doesn’t make me go through three steps just to see what used to take one step. Unfortunately, I will have to delete this one..Version: 7.2
✓ Horrible slow appThis app is horrible. It takes forever to load videos and pictures. I can go directly to the website and the speed is as expected..Version: 6.24
✓ Need to fix this problemApp is freezing up and jumpy. Never used to be this way..Version: 6.21
✓ Why your app opens safari?The app should work by itself, not forcing safari to open..Version: 6.32
✓ JuvenileThe “humor” attempted in the daily morning weather notifications is juvenile and annoying..Version: 6.24
✓ STOP sending weather alertsSTOP sending me daily weather notifications. I specifically have weather notifications turned off in the settings of your own app. Yet every single morning I get daily weather notifications and sometimes also multiple times a day. STOP IT. I want news. The app is good for that. Not weather. 1 star until you stop.Version: 6.43
✓ The app no longer works without Kathrine NeroThe WCPO app stopped working the day that they let Kathrine Nero go. Without Nero, there is no Channel 9. She was loyal to channel, the city and her viewers for 20 years. She was the only woman that my wife would allow me to wake up with Monday through Friday..Version: 6.18
✓ Worst Cincy news appApp crashes often. Links are within app to get from one page to another sometimes takes to wrong page. Some stories fail to load. Went to read one story and wanted me to "sign in" toy expo account...I don't have one, don't want one. Thought about making one using a secondary email address but app has no ability to allow account to be made! They really downgraded the weather section from the wonderful weather app they retired. I will just read news from another local station and not bother with channel 9 again..Version: 3.51
✓ Annoying when readingIt’s annoying when reading a story and that “top stories” drops down causing the entire page to shift... Still one of the better news apps at the moment but hella annoying.Version: 6.22
✓ WAY TOO MANY PUSH NOTIFICATIONSAs the subject says, this sends WAY TOO MANY PUSH NOTIFICATIONS. The traffic and weather are good, although sometimes they are sent way later than other news apps, but then it will send MANY terrible and useless notices, such as 'Go to our site to tell us your favorite HS Football team'. I checked my phone thinking I had a text and it was for THAT??? I stopped using the 5 app because it sent too many useless push notifications. Now I am looking for one to replace this crap. They need to either make categories that you want push notifications for, or get it through their thick skulls that NOT EVERYTHING IS IMPORTANT NEWS! Enough with the push notifications!.Version: 2.80.0
✓ Home Page Does Not UpdateUsing iPhone 11Pro, iOS 13.3.1. The Home Page of the mobile app has not been updated on my phone in a while, unless of course, that’s on purpose. Current headline is “How did Scott Noel die!” From Jan 30..Version: 6.24
✓ BiasArticles written from a biased slant. Report the news and facts instead of pushing your left winged agenda down our throats..Version: 6.33
✓ Clunky and difficult to useI've been using this app for reliable local news since I moved to Cincinnati 3 years ago, and have loved it. However, I was dismayed to open it after the recent update and realize that I could no longer navigate easily, select a category or find anything I was looking for. This "update" was a HUGE step backward, in my opinion. Let me easily pick categories! I don't care what you think is important for me to know - I'm pretty capable of figuring that out on my own. Ugh. If this doesn't get fixed, I'll likely be forced to look for a different source of information..Version: 6.5
✓ BiasedLeft leaning news outlet that never provides dual positions in politics! Just another Trump hating media outlet!!.Version: 6.18
✓ Nice with one BIG problemI like getting alerts for big news stories and being able to read more info about it easily. The most frustrating thing is having to be a member to read certain articles. I looked into it and pricing is ridiculous. I shouldn't have to pay to read certain news stories and refuse to cave in. Very frustrating to click an article only to find out I'm supposed to spend a fortune to read a little story..Version: 3.51
✓ More updates than I wantI only have it for traffic updates but frequently get other notifications I’m not interested in.Version: 6.18
✓ Incorrect againWhere is the rain that was spoke of for today?!! Ruined my weekend!!!.Version: 6.15
✓ Be a news appThere are many news apps to choose from. I’ve downloaded a news app because I want NEWS. Quit trying to be all cutesy, clever & socially relevant and just provide news in your notifications. No one wants or needs to hear the cute little one liners your intern comes up with. Just report the news or I’ll find another station/app..Version: 6.24
