WOOD TV8 - Grand Rapids News App Reviews

Wood TV 8

The reports are not showing. When I gonzo the reports I can see the advertisement but after that it shows the picture with the sound of whoever is doing the reports. Please fix.

Not quite there...

You changed the notifications so they would stay up if I dont click then. Now there is always one notification because I cant find it. Terrible... Drives me crazy! Also your weather forecast on this app and your weather app are completely different!! Youve made such a big deal about the weather app, yet it seems as though you cant manage both...

Latest Update

With your latest update, the app shows a continual alert, that does not go away when you open the app, or go through various articles. Please look into this. Thanks.

smiley face

hate the big ole smiley face that pops up every time I open the app and the alert notifications dont go away. I will delete this app.

Aggravating

Hate your "improvement" where the alert symbol stays on until we tap it. Wont go away no matter what. Instead of an improvement, it is a giant step backwards!! You are going to drive me away and cause me to use WZZM 13 instead! This is a "bug" that needs to be fixed

News 8 get a better app

You need to update the app as the notifications do bot go away

Poor app

Notifications just accumulate, annoying smiley face - just deleted it, time to change channels.

Update

Please update the app. The notifications for new news stories arent going away my notifications is up to 14 lol thanks

Notifications wont go away

Notifications wont go Ive tried looking at stories,weather etc..

Junk

App was useful before update. Now the stupid notifications wont go away even when you open the app and go thru everything. Deleted app

Latest update has issues

The red alert number will not clear after viewing/reading the current news items. C

Whats up with this update?

Terrible to navigate. Old app was better. What happened to disqus? That was the only feature that made this app worth it.

How do I get rid of the numbers (in the red circle) that show up on the app icon?

These numbers are annoying! A couple of days ago it showed 321! Today it is 33! No matter what I do, I cant get rid of them! Other than that, this app is pretty decent and easy to use - especially now that you have added the "back" button. It is great for closings/cancellations! If you can fix the numbers issue, I would rate it a 5! XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX I wrote the above review some time ago. I would now rate it a "1"!!!! The numbers are annoying - cant get rid of them! Also, the weather app for Storm Team 8 and this app do not agree - they are terrible! I agree with ALL of the recent "bad" reviews! Please FIX!

So bad,I didnt want to give it any stars.

This is the first bad review ive ever given an App since 2009,its so bad I cant take it anymore,I deleted the App,first it takes over the screen with an add,I could handle that,but when you get to the bottom of an article it kinda looks like a mouth eating the news,the top goes down ,and the bottom goes up,so ugly , unusual and not a helpful glitchy look.

I was wondering if you could add more advertising.

Updated now wont load.

Ugh

Do not like this app. Havent liked last 2 upgrades. Going somewhere else for my news. :(

Fair but hate the popup

It launches a popup each time you open it. Not fun. Get used to closing the popup! It is hard to read the last paragraph of each story.

Not good. Hate the ad bugs.

Does the developer even test this app? Every update has a new bunch of bugs. The articles become unreadable if you have to scroll down to the bottom because of some weird screen scroll jitter issue because of the ad at the bottom. Also hate the annoying full screen Pop-up ad at every launch, followed by a video ad if you touch the wrong area of the screen.

Bad Programming, Always

They never seem to get it right. I finally had to delete which is sad because the content is the best in the area. First v captured the sound so you couldnt listen to anything in the background. Irritating but not devastating. Now the stories fight with some ad at the bottom of the scroller and jump all over the place. PLEASE find a new developer. BAD.

Deleting it

They updated the app so now every time you start the app, and when you go back to the home screen after reading a story, an advertisement for Express Auto pops up. Every time. I can see the advertisement pop up when you first open it, but after reading every story?? Im done. Already downloaded another news app for the news.
