1. I have to keep a separate weather app just for that.The app doesn't play news like it would be seen on TV if u can even get it to play the news clip videos at all! Just use the website it's much better.Haven't been able to watch now cast for over a week.
2. Otherwise, WGAL is my go-to local news source.For over a year I was able to watch the news with this app on my Galaxy Tab4 but with the latest update it doesn't launch the news broadcast.
3. I check it everyday for weather and updates and except for a couple of the news headlines the rest of the articles are the same for weeks.
4. What a shame I can't get the local news anymore.WGAL is always quick with breaking news and story updates.
5. Deleting this app because its a waste of space.The app works well, but one very annoying feature of this app that caused me to take off a star is the fact that many articles feature an auto-playing video that starts with an ad that CANNOT BE PAUSED.
6. Overall, WGAL News 8 remains a very useful application.Notifications should be more customizable, right now it's "all or nothing" and I get a lot of updates that I don't really care about.
7. I don't usually want to watch the video portion of an article, and the ad playing when I'm in public can be disruptive and annoying to other people.
8. There's also too many ads that autoplay videos which is fairly annoying when I just want to read the article.My go to for weather information.
9. Written stories are needed to accompany video voiceovers and packages; see WRC's NBC Washington service for a good example of how this can be accomplished.
10. AccuWeather and Weather Channel apps and broadcast are more accurate than they are.
11. Their weather forecast are never accurate until about 15 minutes before something changes or happens.
