Pros and cons of NBC 4 New York: News & Weather app for iPhone and iPad

NBC 4 New York: News & Weather app good for

The app is great!!" It keeps me well informed regarding the news here in New York and locally and has videos and well written articles as well..my only concern and bias would be that the App could use a timer for when the live streaming is set to begin again regarding Live Newscasts as that is quite irritating and annoying in trying to guesstimate daily..." Im sure Im not the only one that finds this to be laborious and challenging as well.."

This is the best app I have found for NY region news. Like the layout & runs smoothly too.

The new app is extremely clean and user-friendly. I love the continuous scroll feature and the heavy focus on weather. This version is much more visually appealing than the last and better displays all the news stories. I dont even notice the ads. Ive even seen photos Ive submitted through the app appear on TV with my name below them!

Love the swipe right for trending stories. Easy to share content too. Weather is right on the home screen - LOVE IT!

Be aware if you want the app for the NY area, what appears first in the iPhone app srore is the NBC4 app which is acutally for the Cleavland area. Easy to get confused and download wrong app.

Can you change the photo on the app when it loads, that picture of the Brooklyn bridge is has construction on it. Perhaps a picture of the World Trade Center looking north towards 30 Rock

Some bad moments

The only way to use the app is to have a cable service provider. It should be available to those of us who DONT have cable.

Please add location service while using the app. Having it always on depletes my battery.

I get the alerts fine, but when I try to open the app on my phone or iPad except in my own home on my network I get a data error- it say connect to a network - my phone is always connected....

I receive news notifications, however when I click on the story I am directed to Blinds to Go. At this point, one is forced to watch their ad and to listen to their jingle. There is no getting out of watching, you are trapped. Even when following a thunderstorm warning in your area you are subjected to the same lengthy ads. Not worth the time you are forced to watch for a minuscule piece of news.

This app is the most aggravating news app. I was forced to give it a full star or otherwise, Id give it half of a star. The articles are written with limited information, videos are short and do not show whats in the thumbnail, and the ads are over repetitive and obnoxious. Not to mention the videos glitch and if you have to restart a video, you have to treat her the ad thats almost longer than the video itself. Id rather experience some of the tragic news its trying to report on than have to learn about it from this app.

This USED to be my go-to local news app. However this latest update has made me ready to uninstall it. I enjoy reading the articles and sometimes will click an interesting video, however now if there is a video available it plays automatically when you click on the article! And theres no way to stop it. I was at the library and clicked on an article and the video started playing and I got several snarky looks from people. I dont mind watching an ad before a video I WANT to watch, but dont FORCE me to watch one just to read a story. You already have banner ads. Quit trying to pay for the Olympic coverage by making your loyal news buffs watch ads for videos that they do not even want to watch. If this doesnt change there are PLENTY of other news apps for New York out there. It wont hurt me to delete this one.
