"Great" improvement, not. Now I can't see any news of any kind on the app. Did your weekend editors update the app? It's about as accurate. And speaking of weekend editors, every time I would send in a correction it would crash the app. I've tried multiple times to no avail. But no worries. That's no longer an issue as the app won't work at all.

Our latest app update that was submitted to Google's review process on 12/2/19, and was stuck in that Google Play Store review process, was finally released by Google Review 8 days later on 12/10/19. We thank you for your patience during this unprecedented app release delay, one we have never seen before from Google's Play Store review process.

I absolutely love Fox 17!! By far, my favorite family to watch every day, so not bashing on that. This app however, has become very frustrating. Moment it gets opened, stories get clicked on; end of story. It constantly is crashing and force closing. Please fix! When I miss you on t.v, I like to read and get caught up on my phone at bedtime. Thanks for all you do!

I used to really like this app on my Chromecast. I don't have cable, so this is my only option to watch live local news in the morning. Recently, however, the live broadcast hasn't been playing in the morning. Just clips of old stories. No weather. No traffic. No local news. This happens at least once a week. Please fix this.
