They got it working and it was the best TV news in Orlando. The October 2021 release, to fix some bugs, broke it again. It is unusable. Please fix it and don't touch it. It just spins when trying to read the news. My old phone (Android 6) might have been the problem. So, i bought a new phone (Android 11). The same problem exists. Somebody must be opening this site, because i can't. If zero stars was an option, this app deserves it.

My issue is with the app alerts and those running it. The alert message does not contain the entire headline forcing you to click on the alert to go to the app which take five to ten seconds to load the majority of time. I get you're trying to get users to go to the app but either make it load faster or just show the entire headline on the alert if you want to continue being my top choice for local news alerts.

Terrible app! Been fighting this app on & off for about a year. Only reason I've kept it this long was because WFTV is the only local news I've liked since 1999. Sometimes, it works great for months and then, one day, it will stop loading. I've waited up to five minutes. This will continue anywhere from a couple of days to, this time, it's been at least two weeks. I then have to go to the website and scroll through until I find the articles I want to read. Finally uninstalled. Bye bye!
