The layout of information is easy to access and covers an assortment of news locally, regionally, and around the world. The major problem I have is when they send out news alerts and you click on the notification, it always takes you to watch the live news feed.... But there's never anything to watch. It simply says "We'll be right back". If you're sending out a notification, there should be something to read or watch immediately. This issue occurs even 6+ hours after the original notification.

local news is better than most but have it one star because it continues to send notifications even though notifications are turned off in settings. also the unwanted notification blocks phone opening unless I open the app(in locked phone mode) and cancel the app. clicking the "x" on the notification does nothing to make the app go away so I can unlock my phone. Finally had enough, pop ups on lock screen even though notifications are turned off, long game commercials you can't cancel app deleted

Convoluted. Ad heavy. If it's weather you want, just bookmark their web page. There, everything you need is immediately scrollable. In the app, the main weather page has a list of the earlier weather broadcasts. (?!) You have to navigate to the different sections, then click through what you want -- while sifting through SO many ads.
