This update sucks... I wish you guys would have kept the older version..it was more reliable and worked 100x better.. So many commercials now and no one cares about videos.. The older version was just perfect to see what's happening around in your local towns and all the important news and info was available at your fingertips.. Now everything is filled with stupid videos and commercials.. Please bring back the older version of the app that everyone used to enjoy!!!

It was a good app, but now I can't watch live news. I already couldn't hear it because the sound was horrible. Same with live stream, and it takes to long to load. Please fix. Hit and miss with notifications. Happen every time the app gets updated. 4/19 app was just updated still can't watch live news. Why do I have to wait to watch live news 2 hours later. Do You guys know what your even doing?

Please stop pretending to update stories to keep the timeline "fresh." Many week-old articles with ZERO alterations to the content are somehow "updated" every day! Also, the "check back later for further information" is an equally-egregious waste of 1s and 0s because the stories NEEDING updates typically don't get them! That being said, the rampant grammatical and punctuation errors usually bring a smile to my face, depending on how dramatically those errors change the story's context.
