WMTW News 8 - Portland, Maine for Positive User Reviews
✓ Advertisements Get in the WayLike everything about Channel 8- it’s our ‘go-to’ station so I wanted to use this app exclusively for news. I find that the blocks used for advertising cut off sentences describing the article however, and I’ve lost information. There is no transition to the next paragraph located under the advertisement. This is very annoying as I don’t know how important that info could have been. Not sure if it’s the format, or something I could tweak on my iPhone, but I dislike having to access PPH to get the complete version of the story. Fix it please?.Version: 5.13.722
✓ My go-to news appLove the updates on breaking news, and the variety of other news. Also love the weather radar within the app..Version: 5.13.996
✓ I love this app!Before I moved to Maine 5 years ago, I downloaded the WMTW app so I could get a feel for the state where I planned to relocate. At that time, I found the app cumbersome to navigate & had very little information. However, now I love this app. It’s beautifully redesigned & has so many areas of information. Keep up the good work! WMTW is my news team for all things Maine. You guys rock!!.Version: 5.13.868
✓ Good app but no way to turn off sound of adsThis is my go to app for local news and weather. It’s great but I just wish there was a way to mute the ads! Please add captions and give the option to turn off the sound, please:-).Version: 5.15.375
✓ Easy way to get the days headlinesI appreciate the first half or so of this news app. however most of the second half repeats for a number of days. Some of the stories have been on there over a year! What’s up with that? Lorry.Version: 5.13.498
✓ AlertsI feel that the app allows me to know when news or weather is affecting Maine, and I would have given 5 stars however alerts sometimes show on the locked screen but I can not find the story details when I go to the app. The problem seems to be a time lag and most alerts eventually appear among the line items on the app but some never do so..Version: 5.13.242
✓ My Go To SourceI go here for weather as you can get it at the top of the hour and 10 minutes in ; the app is good for weather and tracking radar and they are very accurate; I go here for news and the newscasters are friendly but professional while speaking to the audience and with each other and have managed even speaking from home when needed in these Covid times JE.Version: 5.15.375
✓ WMTW appReally enjoy being able to look up to see the weather and get the news. Please keep up the good work and keeping everyone up to date..Version: 5.13.223
✓ I sometimes have a problem getting it but I don’t believe it is your feed but rather theLocation The gov said when elected that she was going improve the broadband statewide,!however doubt Ill see it my lifetime! Fact is that SHE &CMP are more interested in building the corridor that will do nothing for Maine residents but will reduce the electricity costs in Mass!! And destroy our wildlife & the gorgeous scenery of our forests & waters!!.Version: 5.13.868
✓ Not too big, not too small... just right!Appreciate having the alerts - and the volume works well for me. Key items, I don’t miss something important and I’m not bogged down by more info than I want to see. My choice if I want to read the article or just the headline..Version: 5.13.140
✓ Best News and Weather AppI get up to the minute News and Weather alerts when anything is happening in my local area and nationally.. I can always depend on this app. Thank you!.Version: 5.13.556
✓ Lot better than others. I seeWorks smoothly and is way better than the few other tv channel apps I have used.Version: 5.13.853
✓ Good afternoonI am this date deleting your web site from all my iPad & iPhone. I am tired of being commercialized to death when attempting to read most stories on your site. I don’t have to be deluged by commercials on Fox & most sites such as Reuters. I also dislike being taken over by your demand program. Goodby..Version: 5.13.151
✓ WMTW channel 8 newsNeeds work. Cannot get into app. Just keeps spinning & spinning & won’t open. Please fox this for me so I can watch it again I’m having trouble with my WMTW app, It won’t open, just keeps spinning & spinning It’s done this before & you fixed it I would appreciate it if you could fix it again. Ty.Version: 5.15.539
✓ Weather Widget Would Be GreatNice app all around, but would love to see a weather widget. Direct access from the main phone screen would be awesome instead of having to click through..Version: 5.15.928
✓ Up to date and personalKeep me in the know without all the political spin. Just straight news and feel good stories, weather and all the things I need for my day.Version: 5.13.996
✓ Very clumsy siteAdds are far too intrusive Non-news items stay forever. Site is difficult to navigate I do appreciate the ease of checking the temperature..Version: 5.15.15
✓ Mostly goodI really appreciate being able to see the weather forecast video whenever it’s convenient for me. I also check in on the live feed when storms are brewing. Like others have said, I just wish there weren’t so many ads. I have to plan ahead to make sure I can get through the ads before the live forecast. It does seem like the number of ads at start up has gotten better and I appreciate being able to skip an ad, so thank you for that..Version: 5.13.26
✓ A OkOver all the air prefer ends quickly and nicely. But when accessing the live streaming of the news that’s where it gets very annoying. Do not like when ads pop up immediately when trying to access the live newsfeed, the return to full screen button does not always work and it closes the live news and puts those stupid ads. You miss part of the news forever how many seconds it takes to return to the news..Version: 5.11.29
✓ Pretty good.Not a bad local news app. But wished it would be updated more often. The on demand news cast is good but is only on when the news cast is on. The notifications are very good with news and especially weather..Version: 5.13.127
✓ WMTW app is awesome!Love the quick notifications ... love knowing about breaking news when it is happening! ...and knowing the weather at my fingertips. Great job! ...oh yeah, can’t forget about the school closing notifications too!.Version: 5.13.140
✓ Good for headlinesI like that news 8 sends me important info when it comes up but doesn’t bombard me with notifications all the time. Once in the app it works well enough but there are too many ads and too many steps to get to what you are looking for. Nevertheless, this is my only news app for Maine and I am overall quite happy with it..Version: 5.13.996
✓ AppI use this app every day. Love the video forecast it’s short and to the point. I don’t like how the ads pop up when I haven’t even touched them but it’s gotten better. Your stories at the bottom stay on too long. The ones below entertainment (which I like by the way). Overall a good way to get my news in the morning.Version: 5.13.127
✓ Stories not loading properlyI love the updates. My issue with the app comes when I hot the banner, because I’m interested in the story and the story either doesn’t load or the app shuts down. My other issue is that if one of the two scenarios happens I can NOT just open the app and have the story right there. I have to go hunting for it and sometimes I find it but often I don’t see it anywhere..Version: 5.13.722
✓ App freezes on some articlesWhen using, the app freezes up and locks on an article or is blank and won’t open a news event. Have to open and close app numerous times and even then sometimes just give up for the day..Version: 5.13.996
✓ News app 8I’m happy you have this. I’ve called in a few times to say the watch now red band wasn’t there. Someone should open the app on their phone at 4 to check if it’s working right. Another weird thing is when I get the message we will be right back, as I’m waiting and nothing is happening, I’ll hit the double arrow fast forward button, and it comes up a little bit into the report. Definitely have someone monitor the output and document it..Version: 5.15.244
✓ Love WMTW8Love have my news at my fingertips. I love getting news and weather alerts keeping me updated on what’s going on.Version: 5.15.950
✓ Great!The only thing I don't like is that sometimes I get a breaking news alert I click on it and it brings me to the old article about the same story. I then have to close out of the app and reopen to get the update..Version: 5.13.567
✓ My favorite local news appI gave them a 5 but it seemed to rate each star when I entered so may be a glitch with the review process. Anyway easy to use and very up to date with news, weather and alerts! Like other reviewers I too think the ads are a nuisance..Version: 5.13.127
✓ Best Local News AppBest news app for local news and weather. Always on top of the latest up to the minute news! Very dependable...Version: 5.13.650
