Still buggy. I have to manually refresh after opening to get the current articles to show up. The worst is that the embedded videos automatically play when you open an article, sometimes multiple at a time yelling over one another. It is incredibly jarring and annoying. Videos should NEVER be set to automatically play, much less when there is no setting in the app allowing the user to change it.

Very, very disappointed in this new format which now relies heavily on ads and clickbait and therefore everything takes forever to load. Each page now has only 4-5 headlines and the remainder is ads. Used to be my #1 for news and weather. Won't be using NBC29 for anything anymore.
