WKRN – Nashville’s News 2 for Negative User Reviews
✓ WeatherI’d like to see an occasional story or quick blurb about the rain year to date or it’s colder or wetter than usual. Perhaps an overall seasonal look ahead or farmers forecast to plant early or whatever. You have a couple of weather people who have great personalities that could present in a “non robotic” and informative fashion. Thanks...Greg Star.Version: 400.29.630037564
✓ What happened?Over the last week, the live news streaming is not available. Not sure what changed. When you click on watch now, you get old news clips. Please look into this..Version: 401.16.0
✓ Updated appSince I downloaded the updated app, it doesn’t work. It will shut off after playing a few minutes. Before I could turn it on and it would work fine for the whole hour and half I watched. I have restarted both my iPad and phone, and have reinstalled the app . Neither has fixed the problem..Version: 401.0.3
✓ Needs helpThe app sends notifications that will say things like “see security video footage” or “dash cam video” so you’ll click the notification hoping to see a video of a burglary or car chase but instead there will be a picture that looks to be the beginning of the video but isn’t. It’s just a picture. Then you’ll read through the story, hoping still to find a video or a link to it, and there is no video. This is the only local news app I have that will send out a notification saying there is video and there is not. It’s especially frustrating because a grainy photo of the beginning of a video does not help the public. We as the public, expect our news stations to send us videos when they say they are so we can identity these potentially dangerous suspects and know the extent of their crimes. To be safe, if they can’t fix why it’s not posting the videos with the stories like the app supposed to, then temporarily they should at least send out photos of the people we should be looking out for..Version: 400.33.550047249
✓ Needs COVID updateGreat app but it only stores the most recent 6-7 stories. In this crisis that means that only the last 6 hours or so of the stories are available to read. Probably fine for slow news days but not good now. Seems like it would be simple to change the list to the last 100 or so stories..Version: 400.34.380050614
✓ Please allow more choices for which notifications are pushed!I like having notifications on for breaking news that is actually important, but this app constantly pushes notifications for news that is not worth checking immediately, in addition to extremely annoying WATCH LIVE NOW notifications. If there was a way to choose what sort of news stories you receive notifications for, it would greatly improve the app..Version: 64.24.00031609
✓ Too many notificationsI have my app set to weather notifications only yet it still sends me non weather related notifications. Some prince in Europe having a baby is not breaking news and I don’t need a notification about it. I know this issue isn’t necessarily with the app itself, but with whomever is tagging the articles. This seems to be a common issue with Nashville news stations. I already deleted my news channel 4 app for this same issue. Probably will delete this one too. I only want the notifications that I select. Not a fan of having to sort through 20 notifications to figure out which ones are relevant to me..Version: 400.30.410039694
✓ UPDATE NOT NEEDED!Screw you News 2! You changed your app to where you have to get another app just to view the weather. The previous version of the App was fine. I could look at the weather and radar and look at news stories all in one. Now, I have to download a separate weather app to view the radar. It wasn't broke but yet you felt the need to fix it. I do not understand why companies constantly feel like they have to change how things work when the current system is doing just fine..Version: 64.24.00031609
✓ Don’t trust the fake 5 star reviewsThis app is bad. It will quickly drain your battery while harvesting your data for advertising purposes unless you are using a VPN. But now I get the impression that the app won’t allow VPNs. Today when I tried to open the app, I got a message saying “Cannot Connect to Internet. Please check your network settings and try again.” Guess I’ll delete the app 🤷🏻♂️.Version: 400.35.480056583
✓ Doesn’t provide news stories from notificationsThis app needs lots of work to sync notifications with actual news stories from notifications. I get a notification, click on it, and the news story does not appear. Very frustrating.Version: 400.30.410039694
✓ Too many notificationsThis is my go to app for all local news. I do think, however, there needs to be less notifications unless there’s breaking news such as a crime alert, weather, other warnings, etc. I’m constantly receiving notifications from this app and it gets a little annoying at times. Your editorial team could also use a proofreader before publishing stories. With the rapid change of news, I’m sure this might be challenging but there needs to be a second or third set of eyes checking that the content is not only accurate, but grammatically correct as much as possible. This is just what we expect from a news organization..Version: 400.28.190036504
✓ Keeps crashingThis is the only local news app that I’ve used, however, ever since the updates and changes to the app it crashes on me EVERY time I try to use it. No other app on my phone does this. The new format isn’t as user friendly anymore, either. Being able to swipe left before was WAY better than forcing you to go to the bottom of the article (that you’d rather skip over) before you can switch to the next. Sorry, but I’m looking at other local new apps now. Just my 2cents🤷🏻♀️.Version: 400.33.400045068
✓ Too many ads!App works great for the most part but it’s annoying that you have to watch a 30 second ad every time you want to watch a different story..Version: 401.20.0
✓ News reviewOften you can’t just read the news without the live broadcast which I can’t have on in a waiting room. Just need to read. And all the ads are annoying! Never know what is a link to access my personal info by hackers so I never click on them..Version: 400.28.190036504
✓ App developer needs another job.I’ve had this app for years, but have been plagued with “couldn’t connect to internet” and old stories that don’t get updated over the weekend. I also feel that News 2 choice of news coverage has fallen below sub par to other News outlets. Could be worse I guess...CNN.Version: 400.33.400045068
✓ Story picturesThe former version was better in that when you clicked on the story, you could see the displayed thumbnail from the home page and any other pictures included. Now there is only the option to watch the entire video segment and no gallery viewing or single picture displayed..Version: 401.3.1
✓ What have you done..?The helpful weather forecast page is now absent... By that i mean you click on where it should be and nothing happens. Also... Pictures on stories are now so blurry you can't even see what's happening in them.... Using completely wrong resolution. What's going on over there.... Lord of the flies..? It's like middle schoolers are running the digital media section there..Version: 400.33.400045068
✓ Why did you change a good thing?I used to enjoy your app before you changed it. Now I hardly bother looking at it. The old format allowed users to easily find anything they needed - weather, school closings, local stories, news... it just seemed to have much more to offer than the new one... lots more lists and links. Please, please change it back....Version: 64.24.00032298
✓ Some work is needed.The app will suddenly crash after reading a few articles. Clicking on the weather link to see a 7day forecast is looking for the needle in a haystack. Too many “weather” options, instead of just showing the daily forecast and 7 day projection..Version: 400.28.190036504
✓ DisappointingThis channel 2 news app is slightly better than its competitors. But not by much. They send you breaking news but when you tap to view the app doesn’t have the story. My second issue is too much self promotion and advertising. When you click to see important breaking news story or dangerous weather you don’t want to see advertising first. Sometimes seconds count. Come on WKRN are you so desperate for dollars that you put your audience in risk for advertising. Please don’t make me download channel 4 to listen to Lisa Spencer.Version: 400.28.190036504
✓ No GoodJust got the latest update. It’s terrible. Format is not eye catching. Difficult to navigate. And WHERE IS THE SCHOOL CLOSING list (when there is closings). The previous version was MUCH better and should have been left as is. If it’s not broke, don’t fix it. Please consider restoring this app to previous version, or at least make this version make sense. Thank you for your time, Frustrated User.Version: 401.0.3
✓ What Happened?I loved the breaking news, but now my notification is a banner that says “notification” and when I go there I have to watch an advertisement. I’m deleting the app. I will check out apps from other news sources. An ad at the bottom of the breaking news is one thing, but actually requiring a video ad before getting the “breaking” news really defeats the purpose. Only thing “breaking” is the app itself..Version: 64.24.00032298
