I don’t know what happened to this app on my Samsung and Vizio tvs. There are so many ads I counted 14 ads in a row…. The weather played and then the Ads started again. HORRIBLE!!!! When I am away, I like to keep up with our news in Tampa Bay…….right now it is almost completely useless………

the tone of the headlines is so genuinely insensitive. today you grouped an easter egg hunt between news about 2 murders. it's so weird please just do bullet points or time stamp them in the push notification because the order you put them in is comically insensitive and it's almost everyday

I was a huge fan of this tv station. I recently cancelled my cable and am streaming now. This station is the biggest disappointment as it shows very short snippets of news. Then plays annoying music while blocking commercials. I would rather see the commercials than hear this repetitive music. I now watch other channels that are not so disruptive.

The app isn’t really terrible, but it’s almost impossible to read anything because of pop-up ads that constantly interrupt what you’re trying to read. I finally gave up on it and deleted it. Too bad

Way too many adds. Can’t watch any news since the ads are constantly popping up on my screen

Ever since the app updated about 1-2 months ago, it’s absolutely terrible. I used to read news on this app all the time, but it times out, brings you to headlines that are not in the notification I clicked on, and it’s nothing but a bunch of interstitial ads that don’t work or you watch and then scroll down to read the story and ANOTHER ad pops up. Awful. I literally look at notification headlines then just do an internet search to read on other sites. What a shame

As soon as I open the app a video keeps playing and I can’t do anything to stop it. I’m about to delete it. It is so annoying and frustrating.
