Please Fox 13 News correct the problem with not being able to watch it in landscape mode. When you watch it in horizontal mode it’s a teeny tiny screen and you have to make sure your phone stays horizontal. If your phone goes even the least bit to the horizontal position the app closes you have to re-sign back in and watch a commercial all over again. I even tried signing on in landscape mode and the picture is too big for your screen and will still crash momentarily. As long as you sign on in the horizontal position and you keep your phone in the horizontal position then the livestream stays on for you but it’s so small it’s almost unwatchable. I see that other people have reported the same thing and it’s not being corrected. Why not?
Works fine. But the notifications can be annoying. I like the breaking news notifications. But they push way too many useless notifications like food trucks, fishing reports and so on. Give us the option of what notifications are pushed to us. Other apps have different categories of notifications you can turn on or off. Would be useful for me anyways
Used to love the old setup. However this new outline is absolutely awful. I have to scroll around to actually see the stories I’m interested in. But there are way too many ads. I honestly can’t believe how many they have. And the segregated stories SUCK. I really hope they fix this in the future. Until then I’ll be looking for another local app.
I’m amazed at how poorly written some of the articles are from a grammatical standpoint. It’s as if some of these articles are transcribed from voice to text and as we all know, it doesn’t always work well. Whatever the issue, the online articles are a reflection of the news station and at times, it’s a poor reflection. Updates are infrequent on the weekends. Guess the web department is off.
