Ratings and reviews

Great source for news & weather! I've had this app for a while including on other phones, but since I switched over to this phone about a month ago I haven't been able to receive notifications from WCVB Channel 5. I've looked at the app settings & notifications etc on my phone but I'm not seeing anything that is blocking the phone from allowing notifications & other things to come through. I like this app, as I don't have to always watch the news and you can read the news instead of watching it.

Great app, but the Widget is no longer working. It stopped working about 1 month ago. The Widget is what I refer to, most often, to view Updates on "Breaking News" (Local & National) , so it's been extremely aggravating that, it's stopped working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, both the widget & the app numerous times, but the Widget still doesn't work. Please fix ASAP and I'll change my rating to 5 stars.

I've always had good experiences but lately when I go to the app it keeps switching from my location back to Boston and I have to reset it almost every time I never had this problem in the 5 years or so that I've had this app please let me know what the problem could be
