ABC Action News Tampa Bay Customer Insights

1. I've been watching action news for 30 plus years so its comforting knowing i can access at my fingertip & have the top stories, hourly weather & breaking news alerts.

2. The news anchors are awesome, not the app!I dont know what got done to this app but the last couple of months, whenever I want to catch the news or replay the news it shows 30 seconds of news and either goes to nonstop Action News commercials or freezes up.

3. Notifications also tell you if an interesting news break is happening on live stream, but the live stream has never worked for me a single time.

4. 🤙🤙Streaming Commercials????? Using the streaming portion of the app, you have to watch anywhere between 7 to 10 commercials in order to watch one segment of news.

5. Must scroll through tons of out of sequence articles, many old news, to find the relevant story if lucky.

6. And it's usually not really news! The news articles are fine, but are not updated per time of publishing.

7. This is the main reason you only got two stars from us.Very good news content concerning important local, national and international topics.

8. Notifications push out news headlines, but links never take you to those particular stories.

9. It notifies you of news but when you tap on it it takes you to the site and you have to look for it among other posts they have made that day.

10. Once in a while I'll get a commercial but no streaming news.

11. Please fix this problem thank you.The commercials that run on this app are so loud and frustrating, I'm sure you will quit using it like I have.
