This app went from the best to the worst does not work on iPad and is full of ads wish I could give it zero stars R
Such a shame they updated this app It was great before Easy to navigate Now its all jumbled together Breaking News alerts to click ononly to find that the news hasnt even made it to the app yet Live steams you cant watch till you view the ad I would PAY for the app the old version if I could just NOT see the same ad over and over again ever time I click to view something Another reviewer said it hereI already chose this team My fave news team here I dont need you to pitch them to me every time I try to watch your newsthat Id already picked over everyone elses Ill look elsewhere for my news app until you guys fix this Ruined a great app with this update
Love the old website better Hope they bring it back Update
Impossible to use please bring back previous app Worst update ever
Ill take the newspaper everyday Why should I have to watch a 30 Minute video to watch another 2 minute video of something I could have read about in 20 seconds Bring back ur old app or just send me the paper What a waste of time Awful app
Horrible I prefer the old version No good
I LOVE the new version A great mix of local and national Slideshows are much easier to view Its just a lot more visual WPBF has the greatest team in South Florida Its only station I watch The alerts are also very helpful Awesome upgrades overall Awesome new app
I wish I could give it a zero If I cant use this app in landscape then I will not use it I am not picking my iPad up and turning it just for this app Sorry you blew it No landscape
I hate it The ads are annoying and there is no way to skip them I have the ap for the local news and weather and not to sell me something I stopped using it Wptv app
The new app appears to be more visually up to date but it is more difficult to access local versus national news When clicking the plus sign in the table of contents youre not sure what you will get More difficult to access local news
Love this appkeep updated with news weather and traffic Hurricane app is also so helpful during the season Thanks WPBF Ch25fan
Poor navigation hurricane tracing images sized ridiculously small but thank goodness the ADS are entirely readable and get a lot of the available displAy space Really bad Hurricane support is laughable
Broken Where is the Breaking news
I was very disappointed after trying the new version of the news app I much prefer the prior version I definitely prefer being able to quickly view story titlestopics within specific categories to get a quick birds eye view I prefer print over video especially after being forced to watch the same ad repeatedly Having to scroll through so many stories is annoying at best Please go back to the version that worked just fine There is no way I will continue to use this app as it is currently designed Try again
Pro shows current events from most media networks Con I would like to see more detail in current event stories less Opinions Pros and Cons
How can what is touted as a first rate station have such an amateurish news app Who put this together the 10 y r old down the street Surely your organization can do better than this Such a let down
I am not happy at all with this new version First it doesnt go in landscape mode on the iPad Second things are hard to find and when you get a notification of something happening it doesnt show up in the app right away This also happened in the old version also Dont like the new version
Like the old app better Hate it
This new version of the app is ABSOLUTELY ATROCIOUS Please go back to the original If it aint broke dont fix it Manager
I can honesty say that I really dislike this new app I hate the fact that I cant use it in landscape view at all and that when I get notifications on my lock screen about breaking news when I open the app I have to search for it and worse part about it is that everything seems so jumbled up together in one page makes me not even want to open the app The older version was way better hands down Absolutely disappointed
The app only works vertical which I hate using that way You have to watch the same ad two or three times before the video will start Maps and everything take too long to load Crap Im going to delete app
I loved the old version better Now I hate reading the news why did you change it This update is trash
Terrible app The previous version was 100 times better You shouldnt have changed it Horrible
First of all let me start by expressing how much I dislike the 30 second ad commercial about the news or just any add It used to be a commercial here and there which is acceptable and understandable but EVERY single time I press play the add comes on And it tends to be the same one over and over and over again It is to the point where I rather just google the news title and see it somewhere else to avoid the add I may get another add somewhere else but at least it is a lot shorter and a different one I am on the verge of deleting the app because what good does it do to have to go somewhere else to view a video I want an all in one app and somewhere where I can view breaking news NOW Disappointed
This update is awful very hard to get to the content you want the old app was simple If it isnt broke Bring back old app
I used to check this app 23 times a day for a quick look at whats going on Not anymore Commercials for the channel that Im already watching When all I want to do is read an article Its an insult to my intelligence now Deleting Bad Really bad
The revision of the app is horrible especially the 32nd commercial every time I open it Thinking of getting rid of the app New app is horrible
I agree with the other reviews I hate the new app and will probably delete it It used to be my go to app when I wanted a quick look at all the news Agree
Proof newupdate is not always better than old version Someone should be very embarrassed about this new app being inferior to the old version Proof newupdate is not always better than old
Old version much better than this one Review
The old version was so much easier to navigate Please please go back to the old version Not a fan WPBF
I never could watch the videos because I couldnt get through the commercials Now when scrolling down all I see is commercials Luckily we have local news on 5 12 the Post Ads Ads Ads
Stop trying to fix something that isnt broken Newest update is not user friendly I cant read the full headline of any article Same ad plays over and over Needs serious tweaking Hate everything about it
Why fix something thats not broken The new update is so complicated the old version worked just fine I prefer to go to different apps for my news now New upgrade not so grate
This new version is awful It is very busy and hard to read Portrait mode ONLY is annoying on iPad and the ad banner across the bottom blocks content I am deleting it and using the old version as long as I can or until they improve this app Keep the old version as long as you can
Love all the new features in the new version It has a lot more stories and videos and has a great balance of local and national Loving the new app
Disappointing I get alerts on my phone regarding breaking news When I go to the app the top story is old and what Im looking for is nowhere on the site Also tired of looking at the same ads every time I go to the app I have no interest in shopping for Command products after being forced to watch their ads over and over This app really needs work Not what I had hoped for
Would like more in depth coverage on local issues Why no interest in all the Exec Ink Our President is bypassing the house senate the people Hummm StoryWorth knowing just ask Donald Trump Best local news
The older version was much better You need to allow it to rotate views for all devices This is clearly only a phone app Also when you send an alert the software should take you to the story when you click on it Now you have to look through everything to find the alert Bad job Down Grade
Best iPhone app of all the palm beach stations and send the best alerts thats The best
The ads say the time but it will but take 4 time it They ad freezes up and the clock timer may say 10 seconds but will take a minute Fix your ads
With all the bad weather we have been experiencing I actually rely on this ap That said I do miss the older version I watch WPBF I dont need to have the constant bios of the news talent Watching videos vertical is terrible Also for breaking news I want to know what is happening NOW the ads prevent this from happening Older is Better
Dislike Can not read anything the layout is horrible Downloaded because my other one wouldnt work Bring back the old one Bring back old version
I really like the old version better They messed this one up big timeI agree with the other review the fact its fixed and cant be used in landscape view is just absolutely ridiculousat least let the screen auto rotate to viewer preference I wished I could of given zero starsdelete this and find something elsewhat a shame WPBF app was my favorite news app until they just magically ruined it with the new crappy version with portrait view onlylittle hint almost all devices use auto rotate and 95 of everyone uses landscape to view contentWOW I thought we were heading towards the future not going back in timetry and get someone to fix that problem or you guys are gonna have tons of unhappy iPad customers deleting this app right after installation Really lame
New app stinks New app
Dont like new setup at all like old set up better About
I am really happy with this app I live in fl Like to know where the lightening is I wish it had a few more options like local flooding Love it
Your new version is really horriblebring back the old one asap or I will be forced to delete it New version really stinks
Hate the new app The old one was so much better GO BACK Hate the new app
Does darn near every story have to be a video I can read very well thank you And then that news ad about your news team that plays before I can see a video Sometimes I never get to see the video because the ad keeps repeating And the new update Its not much of an improvement Video overdose
