This has become the Peter Andre newsfeed instead of Somerset Live!

This is supposed to be Somerset Live bit there is always so called news from outside the area. And who the hell is Peter Andre?? Nearly every day there’s trashy click bait about him or similar. Could be so much better. I’d prefer less content but of higher quality than pages bulked out with irrelevant rubbish

The new app layout is not bad but the comments section does not work plus live updates doesn’t show the time reverence anymore

I added this app in the hope of news in Somerset. Instead I get the worst kind of sensational journalism. This has now reached the point where I have to call a halt and delete Somerset Live from my phone. Otherwise I fear for my mental health as obviously I live in a county plagued by heatwaves ( banner headline last week - it is actually dull and wet), continual horrific accidents ( that get cleared in an hour or so) and terrible crime. Enough! The level of negativity simply jeopardises everyone’s happiness. So goodbye Somerset Live and hopefully you will one day find something happy somewhere.

Moved from northeast England with super local news to this ! Such a heavy Advert centric the articles take pages and pages to read. The notifications are turned off, and off, and off but back they come Day in day out only option will be deleting app, have given it a fair chance -it should be so good

Lots of good local news teasers followed by a seriously flawed schizophrenic interface. Had enough visual abuse - I wonder what nutter developed this - having worked in IT for over 40 years I am shocked by this HMI - Bye

Does Somerset Live know where Somerset is . The map of storms says ‘most of Somerset’ but the south and west is not covered.

There are a couple of things that bug me about this app: 1) the amount of ads in the content. Ok I get it that they have to receive revenue but sometimes between every rotten paragraph? 2) this annoys me the most. I receive a notification. I tap it. It opens the app and then opens Safari and shows me the story in Safari. Why bother with the app? May delete it…

“Somerset Live” with lots and lots of Dorset stories. Awful - deleting it.

This release is mostly maintenance to make sure the app continues to run smoothly. We will have more to share in future releases, so do stay tuned.

This release we have been improving a lot of elements behind the scenes, these include bug fixes and updates to exiting features to make sure they continue to run smoothly. We also improved: - Voice Over Mode for our accessibility users in a number of areas, so do let us know how it’s working for you, we always appreciate the feedback. - We also improved some other UI elements around the app to fix a few contrast and accessibility issues we were seeing. Did you ever notice that trying to write a long message in commenting, meant you couldn’t see all your text? Well, that’s also been fixed too. We are working hard on some big updates, so keep an eye out on future releases for more.
