WOIO Cleveland 19 News

Generally I don't really care that this app has so many ads, until last night's (Oct 21 2021) extreme weather event when I was trying to open the live feed and was stuck with a 30 second unskippable ad. It would have been really nice to know if a tornado was barreling down on my location, instead of hearing about Serpentini's latest deals.

This app will probably be removed from my phone today. I have been using the 19 News app since its inception. I liked it before. This change was unnecessary and poorly thought out. Get rid of its developers, you got robbed. I will find another local news app to read daily. Tried again. Still terrible. National news no longer available using the menu.The videos start automatically and must be shut off if you prefer to read. Pages go white. Return to stories sends you to top of page.Terrible

Why can't app makers just leave things that work alone! Don't fix it if it is not broken. Click on a story and get a blank screen now. Takes for ever to load. Boxy style not for me. I will give it a little while but will probably uninstall if things don't change soon.
