What users are saying

1. News around the south, national news updated 2 to 4 times a week, not hourly or even dailyReally like the CBS 17 News app, it helps me with what is going on I enjoy all of the staff, news and weather and sports, thanks for what you do.So far, since 3/27/2019, I have been more pleased with CBS17 News than any other.

2. Also, will click on a story and will get the weather and it never gets to the story.This is a good local news app, but rarely has updated national or world news.

3. But this app does send a lot of information, almost too much.Like keeping updated on local news but it doesn't keep up the the live broadcasts.

4. The news articles are generally quite brief compared to other local news stations, and not often updated.

5. They have eliminated that app and incorporated weather into its news app.

6. There is a long time bug where the app often hangs and never opens when on anyone's WiFi; never happens on cell connection.WNCN has ruined the weather app it used to have as a separate app.

7. I felt so much more comfortable, based on the information they reported!App is slow to load, hesitates/hangs when scrolling through articles.

8. Please add option to disable video auto play.I appreciate the information, & I like the fact that I can vote anonymously.

9. I'll delete the CBS17 app and find a better one somewhere.I just found this during hurricane Florence, and it has been amazing with covering everything.

10. Sometimes when I click on a story, there is a slight delay on it loading or a delay between each segment.

11. Quality of graphics are good and design of template makes it easy to read.
