Barely usable

As you scroll through the heavily truncated headlines and try to figure out if you want to click on a story, an ad pops up that moves the story down the page, forcing you to scroll again. Or you accidentally click the ad, and now you have to back out. No, thanks.

Great Site & App

My "go-to" weather and news site! Love the notifications that keep you informed and "in the know". Wouldnt be without it!

Spam Notifications

OMG SHUT UP WITH ELECTION NOTIFICATIONS!!!! Put a setting in the app to turn that crap off. I do not need 13 notifications about the election between 8 and 10 pm alone about it. Obviously if I cared I could follow it on the phone anyways. I get doing one with results but stop spamming and abusing the notifications.

Too many commercials

I used to love this news app. But they have added a commercial Inbetween each news clip. Its annoying, at best.

Frustrating!

Not bad in part .. Not good in others. App needs ability to discriminate the types of notifications that are sent. I hate Kravitzs opinions. Ive had to turn off all notifications to avoid his.

Go to

Lay out and ease of use is much better than other news outlets.

I like it!

I enjoy streaming the news. I used to be able to get Indy stations where I lived but in my new location, theyre not available. This app works very well on my phone and makes me happy to see my news and weather "friends" again. I also like reading what Bob Kravitz has to say; he tells it like it is.

"Who got shot?" To the tune of the WTHR theme

My wife and I often sing "who got shot" every time we hear the chime for a WTHR alert, bc it seems every alert is about a shooting. OR you get 3 alerts within an hour about Peyton Manning. Love me some Peyton, but dont need 3 alerts each time he says something regarding his retirement. One that says he is going to speak is enough. Also, seems the news is outdated once you scroll past first couple stories. I much prefer USA today for news. But I do like some local, so I keep this too.

Works ok

Its miles better than wrtv6 Wish the weather charts expanded for a better look

Big picture big print - briefly

This senior doesnt need the entire story from iPhone. I can turn phone horizontally to see enlarged words, photos dont enlarge easily. Appreciate roadblock locations, include map would be handy for me. I frequent I65 from SR26 south to MLK Drive/West St.

Love Kravitz

Im a newspaper junkie. Read 3 a day. The Star, Detroit Free Press and either a local paper or The Times. I picked up your app to read Kravitz and dont think you could have made a better move than to acquire his services and no, Im not related to the guy.

Locks Up

This app locks up about every use, very disappointing!

Rating

Great app. For local news & weather!!!

Amazing

When I dont get to watch the news in the morning I can go on the app and even watch a little! Overall amazing app!

Excellence in 13

The Channel 13 app is excellent! Weather Map & other features...also excellent.

Quickest in the market

Fast, accurate and informative

Too many ads

To many adds which create issues when you are scrolling through the stories

Very good!

This is a very good app. I use it all the time.

Frustratingly slow

There is often good content on WTHR, but Ive quit using the apps--particularly the iPad app--because it...is...so...SLOW! It takes a very long time to load compared to earlier versions. Its not worth waiting--I just go to the webpage in a browser instead. The iPhone app is only a little better. There are also way too many notifications, especially about sports news that isnt really news.

WTH?!

You shouldve left the traffic part of this app alone!!! Now I need a magnifying glass to see the interstates...*fail*
