FOX 17 News Customer Insights

1. There were ads everywhere, and update pop ups woyld not close or update whenever i clicked them.There are so many bugs and glitches it makes the app unusable, the interface is un navigable and the articles sometimes have their captions mixed up with other articles, would give 0 stars if I couldDont download if you want reliable news articles and to be given facts because that is quite simply not what this is.

2. Why issue a red alert for a non-severe, garden variety thunderstorm? Also, many of the news stories are full of spelling and grammatical errors.

3. I really like Fox 17 News and weather, but this app needs some tweaking.Clicking a news alert gives you a blank screen.
