WVTM 13 - Birmingham for Negative User Reviews

✓ Wish they would have kept the weather only appThis app is worthless, you have to watch a 30 second ad before you see either the weather or see a story. Miss the weather only app..WrnsrVersion: 5.13.722

✓ RadarWhen I put in my location I want the radar to show a close up of my location. Yours doesn’t!! It gives me a written description of current weather and temperatures but I want to see the radar for Me. I hate to say it but if there isn’t storms I will be watching Channel 6 for my weather. 6 shows my area every time I open the app ( close up)..MomDoxie1Version: 5.15.428

✓ Deleting appI have always liked this app for local news until the last year. The format change and ads are annoying. Today the ads started auto playing and you can’t skip. Who has time for Ads that are irrelevant to me?.LisacrymesVersion: 5.13.498

✓ Same ad over and over drives me crazy!I like the app and love having access to the news but being forced to listen to the same ad over and over without being able to disable it is annoying in the extreme. Perhaps if you only had to hear it once when you first land on the page would solve the issue. Please fix this!.Teena_McCullarVersion: 5.13.140

✓ Quality?It seems far too often that the broadcast quality is lacking. Either it simply doesn’t come in or it is not HD. Yes, I know that might depend on my server, but I NEVER have an issue with the commercial you run as the program begins - funny, huh?!?.Stupid part!Version: 5.15.93

✓ Worst app of all Birmingham TV stationsI don’t know which is more frustrating: superficial stories or ads in the middle of the stories that omit half of the information. Either way, the app is crappy..Compliments of a friendVersion: 5.15.15

✓ Blank screenOn some mornings it shows commercials and then go blank and back to commercials especially on weekends..Blind screenVersion: 5.15.1359

✓ ReviewI like your app, but am confused by some of the articles that have a topic in the title, but when you look for more information, the article only re-states what the title says. It’s probably my ineptitude, but I do get frustrated. I agree with another reviewer that having to listen to the same commercial every time you open an article is a real deterrent to using your site..ChandaladtVersion: 5.13.521

✓ News storiesNews stories I want to read will not load. Just a white screen This is a new development. Please fix.LET48Version: 5.13.868

✓ Not staying where I was at before reading post.I hate when I read an article. I finish it and then it general always takes me back to the beginning of the app, instead of where I left off at. Really leaves me to have search back to where I was last..SparkkleVersion: 5.12.101

✓ Notification settings don’t workSo. Many. Notifications. Even when you change in the settings what you get alerted about, you still get the notifications of the things you turn off!!! Going to to switch to another Birmingham news app. This is so sad..JStan99Version: 5.15.93

✓ Please bring back separate apps or weatherThis app now includes the weather app and it is not good - doesn’t save or even recognize current location well - and way too many ads..GPTrvlVersion: 5.13.934

✓ Feature articleThe feature article pops up and then one must wade thru multiple other articles before finding featured article. When it can be found 😟.Ziva35Version: 5.15.244

✓ Too many fluff stories pushed as breaking newsGood for weather updates, but I finally decided to delete the app because of its insistence on sending push notifications for the most mundane human interest stories despite me having my filters set to “breaking news” only..HeehawthebookVersion: 5.15.1006

✓ News PushesIt is almost laughable when I receive a “push” and open it to realize other news feeds had reported days before. And as several have fussed about, the commercials blaring with no skip option, no thank you..15MacVersion: 5.13.626

✓ Bad appThis app is all about news not weather. All about ads!!! We don’t care we want weather. Hard to get instant alert. Radar is so so slow. We need alert first not news. Step up or give us our go to app back. Very disappointed. Wayyyyy too many pages to navigate to find weather. Can’t believe this app is so bad for weather. Need needs to be a choice not radar. Radar should be instant gratification. Messed up on this one. Please fix since we had no choice on app. Hearst is the worst..Radar CheckerVersion: 5.13.722

✓ BUGGY APP!! Good local weather reporting. Biased news.This is the only available local app with full coverage I can watch on the go otherwise I would watch another. Best weather coverage and good anchors and fairly good local news coverage until election time got here. However very obviously biased since Hearst took over. Consistently critical of Republicans and Trump. Shamelessly doesn’t make any attempt at balance or real news. Guess I’m old enough to remember when the news was actually about news. The app itself has always been buggy, but lately I can only get to the first animated commercial, then it hangs up. I just want to get through the full weather report and and the low down on COVID. I can’t stomach your political crap! Bought a new streaming service so I can get something better. I’m breaking up! Tired of brainwashing and fake news..1nEdenVersion: 5.15.55

✓ InterruptingYou should just post real breaking news, not weather going to be toasty, mayor doesn’t like something, covid numbers (ad nauseum), cat rescued by firemen, etc. It should be REAL and a matter of great importance. Otherwise, I love WVTM 13..Granny CrickVersion: 5.15.474

✓ Needs some workI keep getting news alerts & when I try to view the article, it isn’t there & takes up to 10 minutes to show up. Even a search for the headline in the app doesn’t show anything. Fix your lag time or hire better staff..PitbullmommeeVersion: 5.13.242

✓ Too many commercialsIt is frustrating to have to watch an ad for almost everything you click on. I usually end up just clicking out of the whole thing. And sometimes I can’t even find the article you are telling us about. I like to keep up with local news, but this just isn’t my “go to” place..Whatev......Version: 5.13.868

✓ WTHIt’s been almost a month and I can’t watch the news on here. I can see the commercial just fine but the new just won’t load. Please fix this.Slimpickens365Version: 5.13.498

✓ SadThat is sad what you did to your radar app, forcing people now to go to your news app first. People are driving perhaps and need quick radar information. You should have done like WBRC and just have an opening quick ad and banner. See ya later..SKinBhamVersion: 5.13.996

✓ FredSometimes the video will begin and there is no way to find out what is going on. We use to be able to tap the video and the information would be there. But now, all you see all the ya down the page is “What is going on” frustrating.FixitlordVersion: 5.13.626
