Ratings and reviews

I love the ability to get news surrounding my county and low country very fast! My main issue is every time I watch anything I get an ad and lately it plays audio of the ad at the same time my selected article is playing. Very frustrating so now I actually read the text instead of watching the video because of this major issue! If the ads were not so heavy and intrusive I would live it! Please remedy this wcsc! Thanks 😊 🙏

The giant add that pops up before every story and has to be manually closed is obnoxiously intrusive. Another problems is about half of the time I select an article a blank page loads with the Live 5 News header at the top of the page that no amount of reloading the story will fix. The old app worked better and was far more stable. I've had only problems from this new web-based app.

Update: clicked on one of the news links and a virus popped up. Had to delete the app. Dont know what you guys did far as an update but definitely made things worse. Switching to a different news station app. After the update, the app crashes and a white screen appears sometimes. Plus it seems to show more ads than before the update.
