Ratings and reviews

I have had this app for yrs and yesterday ( 1/22/26 ) I have been unable to access it. When opening the app it immediately will crash and give a message of "App unavailable". We have the snow storm coming and I can't get updates. So I guess I'll reinstall and try again. Very disappointing

Latest version is extremely sluggish and difficult to navigate. I don't mind the ads, but in this version of the app, they pop up at random while you are trying to scroll down to another section to select. As a result, you often select something other than what you intended. This version is nice to look at almost impossible to navigate. I would rather use the old version.

Just okay (for now) There have been SO MANY typos in the articles in the app lately. It has just been embarrassing. Some are so bad I can't even figure out what whole sentences are supposed to say. For example, "police found car couple blocks from Place." Wait, missing articles, and...what was that last part? I can't explain fully, because some of the errors are that bad! Seriously, journalism is your business! The reporting is good and the stories are good, though. Just check your work WLTX.
