WRTV Indianapolis for Negative User Reviews
✓ Nuisance NotificationsIf you are looking for an app that CONSTANTLY notifies you with junk information, look no further!! The push notifications this app does is horrendous! They push notifications of drug deals, dead body found, and children being abused is pointless. I don't need those kinds of notifications every 10 minutes. On top of the terrible nuisance notifications, they like to push "breaking news" that when opened in the app, don't exist. The next complaint is all the news stories are posted with little information on them with, "check back as we update this story", which NEVER GETS UPDATED! I have found more relevant news and better updates to stories by reading my cereal box and looking in pancakes for Jesus to appear..Version: 5.3
✓ Basically unusable on iPhoneAny time I open a story more than half of the text on left hand side of page gets cut off, with no way to adjust size, etc. I’m disappointed as this is the last serious news service in the Indianapolis area..Version: 6.18
✓ Was my go-to for news updatesThe last update ruined it. In the middle of reading a news item, loud ads will pop up and disrupt your reading. WTH! There are already enough ads in between news stories. Now they can’t even wait till you get to the end..Version: 7.3
✓ Terrible. Just terribleI really used to like all platforms for rtv. Back when you could listen to it on fm. But I just can’t do this app anymore. Compared to other local news-and when you throw in the star it is very easy to compete with-it just fails. The stories are usually 24-48 hours behind-meaning stories rarely get updated. Although very minor, but speaks to the neglect of the app, often times the same graphic appears for multiple stories, day after day. It’s almost laughable when some graphics appear for the same story. RTV6, how are you still doing this??.Version: 6.18
✓ Liked old format betterMiss the old format greatly. This app performs better but I wish it was set up much more like the last app. Going to miss the "wierd" news section and being able to find local. Top, national, and entertainment news right from the front page. It would have scored higher of the app was more laid out like the old one..Version: 2.13
✓ Liked the older version betterNew version is terrible. I don't like the large pictures. Too much to scroll through. Bring back older format. My thumbs hurt from all the scrolling. Also, one can no longer select news options you want to filter for such as local news only or sports news or traffic. Will have to switch to a different news app. This one is broken..Version: 6.1
✓ Not loadingHasn’t loaded any news for the past few days.Version: 6.14.1
✓ Very annoying.Every, every time you open the app you get a pop up to turn on notifications. I don't want them, there very annoying, you get a alert for every little thing. Channel 10 has a great app that doesn't annoy you with a notification pop up upon opening. They know how to do it. Come on channel 6, grow up, get with the program. Hope I haven't "annoyed you"..Version: 6.5
✓ Animal abuseIf you are psychotic and love pictures of animal abuse then download this app. Because all they do is show pictures of tortured animals. They don’t focus on tracking down who did it. They just like to show the pictures. Beyond horrible app that provides no news besides animal abuse.Version: 6.18
✓ Not a fan of new updateThe former version had easier navigation. Feel information has been lost, or at least not easy to find. This was my local go-to for news updates. Based on the updates, I am now reviewing other apps for local news to determine if there is a better option..Version: 6.0
✓ No Breaking NewsIt is very frustrating when a breaking news story comes up and I tap it, but when the app opens up I am taken to the home page instead of the story for the link I just clicked on! Most times, I can not even find the story in the app! For as much as this app is advertised, you would think it would work better!.Version: 2.71
✓ SOS: Dump this version alreadyHorrible new design. Must sign in now...really? Zero stars should be an option. I'm all about continuous improvements and efficiencies, but this is reengineering gone bad. Developers-please reevaluate and undo or at least combine some of the prior version with this version. No longer can we easily navigate to any different news sections. Scroll, scroll, scroll. Scroll some more. Plus, this was the go to app for traffic (maps and incidents) updates. Not anymore..Version: 6.0
✓ Doesn't workNothing loads. It's completely blank..Version: 6.14.1
✓ Was fine until...Ads starting popping up and taking over my entire screen without the ability to close them forcing me to close the entire app without being able to read the story. And not just regular ads, those awful 'you just won a new iphone' clickbait scam ads. Sayonara RTV6..Version: 6.13
✓ Updates & ReinstallingI too noticed that the news was not updating. I had the same stories for 3 days straight, odd pages & crashing. I had always updated in a timely manner so I wasn't sure what was wrong. I deleted the app, powered my phone down for a few minutes & then reinstalled. The app looks new & seems to be working fine!.Version: 2.51
✓ Scrolling for daysI'm not a fan of the new update. The pictures are so big that it takes forever to scroll through all the headlines, there's also not a scroll bar along the side that tells you how much farther you have to go til the end. There are also now (huge) ads every 3 articles, and the articles sometimes repeat themselves. I like the speed, and the radar is cool, but it does not seem as easy to take in the headlines and choose what to delve into. It feels like a bigger commitment than I'm wanting first thing in the morning. I may need to try a different app..Version: 6.0
✓ Not a Fan of the New FormatThis was my favorite local news app until the new format was released. I used to use it daily. The new format is difficult to scroll through, as the pictures are way too big. I am switching to the WISH8 news app which still has a format that is easy to get around..Version: 6.0
✓ Does not deserve stars.This new app is awful. I used to read the news daily, every morning when I got to work. Now I hate opening this app. Half the time it doesn't open, when it does it goes to an ad. I will scroll and it will freeze and when I regain control I am prompted to an ad. I now will be reading an article and all the sudden...AD POPS UP. Why do we need so many ads? Between each article isn't enough? Can I pay to not have ads? Can I read a whole article without being bombarded with ads? STOP WITH THE ADS!.Version: 6.0
✓ CrashThe app Crashes a lot when opened..Version: 6.21
✓ Could be improved - not kept up to dateStories are stale and not updated near as frequently as the competition Why do they have the same story posted five times? So many typos!.Version: 6.24
✓ IOS problemsThis app is actually my favorite news app for Indy and I would be more than ready to rate it a 5 star. But now I see I will no longer be able to use it anymore because I don't have iOS 6. If I could afford a newer iPad I would buy one and update the iOS but I can't. I think to exclude anyone with an older version is unfair. Maybe I'm the only one who is experiencing this but I thought I should express how I feel..Version: 3.50.0
✓ Filled with Hate toward our countryI would not get my news from this station. They are constantly putting down the leader of our country. The news is so negative about him, it begins to reflect in your body language and attitude throughout the day. My family and I, as well as a lot of friends, have chosen not to get our news from this station anymore. We don't even watch the channel at all. I would suggest getting your news elsewhere..Version: 6.8
✓ 6appThis was my go to news app. Thought it was more organized in old version. We lost all our sports, entertainment, traffic, etc. At what time did updates become updates for the sake of updates. People liked it because it was useful, but now it's no different than having a pile of newspapers in front of you. Rtv is better than this so go back to the drawing board on this one please. It's ok to polish something without reshaping it. And please drop the password and user name! Really! It's the news! What are we protecting here! Good luck..Version: 6.0
✓ Articles not readableSome articles aren’t formatted correctly so it is impossible to read because the 90 % of the text is off your screen..Version: 6.18
✓ Video AdsI used to enjoy this app and used it daily, but I just deleted it because they started playing (loud) video ads every time you touch to read a news story. Now I can't check the local news from this app anytime I'm at work or a doctor's office or anywhere other people are around! And there is no way to skip the ad, you are forced to listen to the whole dumb commercial before you can read an article! Forget this app, just stick to other news apps instead..Version: 2.51
✓ The news needs updated hourly!!I see the same stories on the landing page days later when lots of news has happened that should replace those old stories. Surely someone working at your company is awake updating news? Also, too many times related stories are on the landing page when one would do and additional stories could be available as links on that one lead story. For instance, 3-4 stories on the colts, one about not resigning coach, one saying we won, while another saying we aren't in playoffs. Waste of space, and I'm a season ticket holder!.Version: 6.0
