WANE 15 Customer Insights

1. WHY WONT YOU FIX YOUR APP????? ITS JUNK CAN'T READ 1 ARTICLE WITHOUT IT FREEZING UP!!! YOUR IT DEPARTMENT MUST BE ALL REJECTS FROM THE SCHOOL THEY WENT TO TO LEARN HOW TO DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING AT ALL!!!Gotta love the fact that you have to watch a 15 second ad for a 11 second video that gets a error every time you try to play it.

2. App is even worse, same issues as before but now inundated with ads.App looked pretty bad before but at least the UI was reasonably clean, even if it looked like a geocities website from the 90's, but the information was easy to navigate ( just swiping to get to different categories), now it's a dumpster fire and the weather section is hot garbage.

3. Not happy with new version.Used to be a great app but not anymore! Every time I open the app up it freezes! Started doing this about week and half maybe 2 weeks ago.

4. You can play ads, but you can't play the video for the news story.Terrible app across all platforms.

5. I wont be using anymore *UPDATE it still sucks! now you get redirected to malicious websites on certain news stories.

6. I might look for the old apk and see if it'll still work but this version is just unusable for me now.Ok until latest update will not install.

7. Seems very cluttered, not that customizable and actually long winded.Video always plays first.

8. Barely loads radar, and freezes when trying to open a story.

9. Update: Well, finally got the update to install and turned off all permissions.

10. Videos work most of the time.

11. Sometimes news will videos will not load, just flashesblack screen.
