Articles are posted for much too long. Too many times the posting reads,"We will update as information becomes available", yet they never update. Not much different than reporting what one might hear on a 911 dispatch app. To bring it up to date, the app has NOT improved. There are signs of a complete lack of editorial correction of grammar and punctuation. Overall it seems like a seventh grade book report. Too many times there are omissions of the Subjects name, or location of incident.

Nice concept, IT guys should use it and fix it. The stories are easy to navigate, it does keep me informed on happenings in my area. However 90% of the time I can't watch any of the videos. They start and either stop halfway through or the audio vanishes or some other stupid thing occurs. The ads and "sponsored" articles are obnoxious and add nothing to the app.

Most frustrating part is how any notification on my phone shuts the radio feed off. Even just a message received means I have to go back into the app and start the feed again. Sometimes it shuts off without a reason. Almost like it can't stream for longer than a few minutes. Tried it again because of severe weather. It would not allow me to listen to the live radio, and live TV was showing an interview about recycling, nothing about the tornado that had touched down.
