WCIA News App Customer Insights

1. WCIA and owner Nexstar are all-around poor quality organizations.We were out of the State for the allowed us to see Our Town Tilton and keep up to date with the murder trial of the Poor Chinese girl.

2. You would get better results from just Google what you are looking for.Original version worked great, but after latest update, when I attempt open and look at a story, all I get is a black screen saying "not connected to internet" when actually I am.

3. I've uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck.Very good for our local news and weather, downloaded easy no problems.

4. No wonder WCIA's on-air people are constantly pushing it during their tv 'news' broadcasts, which are also little more than just a torrent of advertisements.

5. And of course even if you're not in public somewhere, if you've got anything else going on the phone this will interrupt that too.App slow to load extremely slow to load.

6. Check phone for news update, better make sure you're somewhere where it's okay for audio to come screaming forth from your phone.

7. **Even worse, auto starting videos with audio with no regard for where the person is or what else is going on on their device.

8. Would be faster bookmarking website and using that instead of this app that seems to have coding issues making it resource demanding slowing down devices using it.

9. Uninstalled it as in its present state it is unusable.Buggy. App destabilized my tablet's UI when running.

10. Odd how WCIA's weather app works decently, but not this.This app is nothing but a platform for tons of advertisements.

11. I would recommend 🙂A good staff of contributors, a real effort to be timely.
