Easy to use, functional, and fast when it’s needed. This is a great app to stay up-to-date on the latest weather and news stories. It’s easy to use, and they send just the right amount of notifications to keep you informed, but not too many to be annoying.

News Will Come. Overall, a really great application that keeps you informed on the news, weather, sports and regional events. In exchange for this service they require that the viewer watch a commercial or two but to the extreme. On several occasions, was presented back-to/back with as many as eleven (11) commercials before being able to view severe weather and traffic announcements. Many of the commercials were actually about NBC 5. As commercials fund the station and network it is expected to occasionally view one but not being able to access up-to-date life threatening events makes them past history. I can go to other channels to view history. Perhaps a filter could be implemented to stop or limit commercials during these presentations.

Weather Radar. It seems something changed with the weather radar. When viewing the radar in motion, I find the historical weather activity (ex storm movement) more useful than the predicted future movement. Something seems to have changed where they only show a small portion, maybe 30 minutes, of past cloud/storm movement. It is easy to tell when a storm is coming your way, when you can see where it has been. This small historical sample makes that harder.

This used to be my go to weather app 🙁. What happened! Rick, the weather in this app has gotten worse then just going to the website. I used to count on you guys to stay weather aware and safe. The storm tracks, warnings and animation speed are awful now. I had to download a more accurate radar. Now I have to watch the weather here then open another app when I want to see where the storm is going. Please fix the radar back the way it was!

Weather Aware App. Since we live here in North Texas, it is critical that everyone stay aware as we get into the Spring. Weather in this area of the country can be violent at times, and I think this App is the best available for keeping track of the weather. The channel 5 weather group is the best in my opinion of taking care of their viewers. This APP is a good part of that....

Keeps me informed real time. With our weather being so changeable, it’s great to be able to keep up in real time. Several times during severe weather I have been able to either delay my travel, or even change routes to avoid the worst of it. The app also sends info out about warnings. In addition the news team also sends out breaking news as it happens, including live reporting, and aerial shots. Can’t say enough really. Just keep up the good work! If I could give 10 stars I would!

Great news app!. The live feed always functions well. News of various subjects is organized in a pleasing way. I watch the live feed while I get ready for work. I can still hear it even if I open another text or email. Other apps shut down when you do something else. It never shuts off midway through what the reporter is stating. Thanks!

Best app ever!. This app is great. I have watching NBC 5 News DFW since May 2012 and they are amazing in my opinion. I get alerts on my notifications which is good because I can look what is the latest news of my local area. Plus I get weather alerts as well. Also I can watch the news on the app as well which I really like about this app. Overall, I really enjoy using this and I still use it now. 👍🏻

Reliable and comforting.. I like that the app is always on the job. It comforts me to know that I can rely on it’s important information that it provides. It’s convenience allows easy access to relevant news that affects us all to one degree or another. I like the easy, resourceful info that will always be available when I need it. Keep up the steady resourcefulness that keeps us all informed and relevant. Charlie Pate

Keeping up with the metroplex. I wrote this months ago and thought I had posted it then, but found I had not. My opinion of this app has not changed. It is great, easy to use, and still has excellent videos, alerts, remote footage, etc. I am sorry I failed to post this at that time: After living in Arlington for 10 years, we moved back to Wichita Falls. As we still have family in the DFW area, when severe weather broke out right above our grand-daughter’s apartment, I went right to live feed of the area on the local NBC app. Felt much better after watching the live feed for awhile and put the app on my phone. Thanks to this great, clear app, we have peace of mind as we check it quite often, especially when something’s amiss in her area. Up til now, we’ve never had any issues when using this app and commend them for the live feed, esp the good quality of the video within minutes of the severe tornado in the past year that caused quite a lot of destruction. Their chopper’s fly-overs while checking the destruction in the days following was always very clear and commend their chopper pilot for the steady flying.

This is how News is suppose to be. Keeps updated with weather to start the day and quickly again when the forecast changes which we all know happens a lot haha. Also huge plus keeps you updated with breaking and local news so I feel more connected with the city. Thanks keep it up

v7 Redesign is Terrible. This was absolutely my go-to app for local weather & news for years; however, the complete redesign a few months ago has made it almost unusable. The new design is clunky and inefficient. The landing page for the current weather only gives a 2 hour window instead of the entire day. Scrolling to the 10 day forecast lands at a full screen of the following day details first (none of which are weather by the way) and then you scroll to a condensed list for the remaining 8 days. All this and you still don’t know the immediate forecast for today or tomorrow. Who designed this? Please bring back the utility & ease of use of the previous v6 app.

Love the App. I hate the thought that I waited to download this app during some really bad weather and I lost the satellite connection on my tv. I get all the latest news quick with the app now and love the fact I feel informed about local news and weather. I just wished this channel wasn’t so democratic I never felt it was so one sided to recently. Maybe I had blinders on and it took someone to point it out. Other than that I love channel 5 been watching it for 42 years. Wow it’s taken me that long to see what I see now. But I will continue to watch and now with this app I’ll see everything sooner. Still 5 star

Best Weather Notifications!!. I don’t even live in Dallas - I’m near Austin- but this App is so great about current weather alerts and notifications!! It’s more accurate than any of the Austin-based apps I’ve tried. I appreciate the news alerts from local, state, and national thanks to this one. It’s been over 30 years since I lived in Dallas, so hearing about news stories there is nice, too.

iPad version hanging periodically. For the second time this year (2022), the iPad version of the app hangs IMMEDIATELY upon selecting the Weather tab. I reported this the last time it happened and they suggested deleting and reloading the app, restarting the ipad, updating the iOS version, etc. NONE of those helped. After a couple of hours, it mysteriously began working normally again. Problem just repeated itself today (but I’d not yet working). Throughout the whole deal, the IPHONE version of the app worked fine. Don’t know what broke, but this version no longer very useful…. Hope a newer release returns to better functionality. It’s now Feb. 26, 2023 and the iPad version of this app STILL HANGS!!!!! The iPhone version continues to work well, but the iPad version is BLOODY USELESS! I’d give it ZERO stars if I could!

Failing to Load, devs trying to kill an app?? 🤔. The last 2-3 updates have completely made the app unusable. For pretext I set up my app to load in the weather section with what used to be a “live radar,” the NBC 5 radar. Since NBC DFW owns and operates their own radar it means that they are able to directly publish new radar data every minute. This is what brought me to the app, as nbc’s data will be the most updated and reliable source. About one or two updates ago some change made the radar almost unusable and seemed to inhibit the app refreshing and loading new data. The most recent update has actually made the app unusable, nothing is loading in! I constantly get a “URLSessionTask failed with error: The request timed out.” on my screen before the app can even load in one piece of data. I’ve forced the app closed multiple times to reopen it to no avail and have uninstalled twice now as well. NBC 5 your app just kept getting worse over time and you finally have tried to kill it. Hopefully your dev team can get stuff back on track. P.s. like lots of other comments, GET RID OF THE ADS DURING BREAKING NEWS OR WEATHER EVENTS. K thx byeee.

App Review. Love the app! Great weather reporting, love the way the app let’s me set up what type of news I want to view first and let’s me view on my front screen of phone. I love quick reporting of AMBER ALERTS as well. Love the quick response of all of the above. Overall set up of app gets a 5 Star rating for how user friendly it is. Hats Off And A Big Thank You From The Vickery Family!

Review. I never do these but wanted to say a few things. I grew up in the DFW area, and during my professional life I did quite a bit of traveling around the country. Currently I am in the PNW with family and none of these other news outlets compare to NBC 5, in regards to professionalism and content of the programs. I have the app so I can keep up with what is going on “at home”! Thank you so much.. Hope all of y’all are staying safe and healthy. Merry Christmas!

My 5 News. My favorite is Rick Mitchell, he’s the best how he is the only weather man who talks calmly and keeps you calm during a storm! Every other weather person usually tries to provoke fear and that I don’t like, that is why my tv or my phone will be on 5 during storms. Thank y’all so much for everything, keep up the good work and please let y’all’s bosses know that this viewer has a lot of respect for y’all’s team and to keep y’all, don’t get rid of these good people and a bump in salary would be great for them too! Thank y’all very much again!

MY HOMETOWN NEWS STATION. Lived here all my life and grew up watching NBC5! The best news program! We moved to Rockwall from the Plano and Garland area in 2013 and continue to keep NBC5 as our need to know news option. The app gives informative news, weather, and sports updates and I give it 5 stars. All NBC 5 newscasts are given by the best newscasters ; all fair, concise, and in my opinion caring people. My favorite time segment is the NBC5 morning crew from Debra, Laura, Samantha, Grant as well as the entire crew. They all do a fantastic job and put a smile on my face. NBC5 keep up the great job. Thanks Y’all !!

Map portion of app still horrible. One year since this weather update and it’s still horrible. I hoped you would fix the weather related map issues. I would rather see the map past, not start at 90% of a possible future. Im convinced that most people probably think the map run IS the past. Why don’t you guys do a poll to see, you’d probably be shocked at the responses. If the weather is really bad there is no way to change the view with one hand. Please remember people that use your map are probably not safe at home and and able to control the screen. They are probably driving or walking through bad weather. Your mapping app does not help if a person is in these situations. Your map portion of the app is not user friendly at all. Why is that? Please fix the map back the way it was before.

NBC 5 App. Yes, I love this app! Even though some days the news really makes me sad, this app always includes the stories and pictures of people and pets being kind, funny, helpful and lovely, too! Plus, always helpful tips on how to stay healthy and happy. Always a good reality check on what is happening locally, nationally and around our world.

Fabulous!. This is fabulous that NBC allows such easy access to info & TV. Because the other networks have not followed suit, they are losing all generations under the age of 40! Crazy! I did notice when I went to watch TV on the app while I was in Florida, instead of getting the Dallas channel 5, I was connected to the local NBC channel 7. Interesting. I completely applaud NBC for giving EZ access to live TV in this App, as well as being the only main network that allows live TV access on the Uverse App ... leaving CBS, Fox & ABC in the dust!

Thank y’all NBC5. I’ve been using your app forever, and use it several times an hour, especially to see what “my Buddy Rick” has to say about the weather. I met him at the weather expo and asked if the S band radar was located in Bristol, to which he replied “yes, it is”. Trivial to most people, but of vital importance to the functionality of the radar system. So my friends say he’s my buddy. I watch the updated news briefs also, but always count on y’all for my weather info!

Great way to stay informed! I do miss the NBC5 Weather app. I think that the NBC5 app is great and love how easy it is to navigate and stay informed. I love the quick updates and alerts! Thank you NBC5 News Team!!! The only reason to not get 5 stars is I do wish that NBC5 Weather app still worked the way it did before the apps were merged. NBC5 Weather Team is the BEST and I miss being able to do a quick weather check when that is all I am needing.

Staff and news coverage. This is the only news channel we watch every a.m every evening we have watched it for years. I like everyone on the news. After a.m news we never miss the today show either. Some anchors left some retired and some passed still miss them. Really miss Cathy Gifford. The staff keeps the news interesting and informs you of many things. Love how the today show always brings new things like training the puppy until it leaves for a forever home. Will continue with channel 5 when you have the best why change? Thank you to all staff for all you do to keep the news interesting and us well informed. I also have the app on my phone and if I am away from home I go the app I love it Only thing I would like changed is to be able to make comments but, for whatever reason it always says this site is not available.

Freezes constantly. I have had this app on my phone for years. It has never worked properly. It constantly freezes when trying too open app. I have deleted it and try bringing it back on occasion to see if it has been fixed. Nope. Still freezes. I have other weather apps on my phone and do not experience performance issues with them. It’s a shame the developer can’t get this fixed because on the rare occasion when it works, it has the potential to be a good app. Save yourself the frustration and use another weather app.

Great App. This is an excellent app. I have been using it for quite sometime and have not experienced any issues with it at all. It provides the latest news and will keep the public informed of whatever breaking news possible. I encourage anyone to try the app; you will most certainly find it to be useful and informative.

WONDERFUL!. I have lived in the Dallas area all of my life, actually 3rd generation native. NBC local, by far is the most accurate weather predictor. The app is so well done and keeps me posted on daily events as the occur and always before anyone else I know finds out. It isn’t overkill, the app does not bombard with useless notifications. It is just right on the balance scale! I recommend it to everyone!

Weather part of app. I love the weather part of this app when it works. It tends to freeze up, can’t get the radar or scroll on the weather tab. I love the radar, the 10 days of weather and the ability to watch Rick or whatever weather person is giving updates during storms. But just like many months ago, the app has been frozen for weeks. Restarted my phone, no help. Reloaded the app before and it didn’t help. Usually I have to log out of everything else to get it to work but nope that doesn’t work right now either. I even have the latest phone and more than enough space / capacity. Please fix this.

My dependable local news and weather source!. I watch Channel 5 NBC to get regular news and weather on my tv but this application makes it available for me whenever I am ready to see what’s going on around the DFW metroplex, north central Texas , the rest of the state and country as well as around the world. Convenient, accurate and trustworthy are the attributes that make this app one of my favorites and most used.

4 out of 5. NBC 5 DFW app is really welcomed. I like that it is “live” when reporting bad weather especially and thanks for that. I don’t always get sound with the severe weather though. Checked and double checked my iPhone for settings and no problem on my end. Also can’t get the full screen all the time. Would like the option to get closed captioning to have on my iPhone while on my computer or watching TV. I may have that and don’t know it. Keep up the good job guys!

Great app, one complaint. Overall this is a great app, the notifications are useful and you can watch the news live. My only complaint is that, when watching a video, the screen doesn’t actually rotate when you’re in landscape orientation. Only the image rotates, meaning the clock and toolbar at the top are still visible. This also means you have to swipe sideways to get the control center or notifications feed, etc.

Frustrating to say the least. I like using this app since it has local weather along with local news. Nearly anytime I open it trying to check the weather it completely freezes the app and I have to repeatedly force close and reopen it until it finally loads the weather tab without freezing. It has been like this for quite a while. I’m moving on to something else, I cannot stand this thing.

Thank you NBC 5. I’m very satisfied with this app. It keeps me up to date especially with what’s happening in the DFW area. I realize that so much is happening with the pandemic that it’s hard to focus on anything else, but I do find that you are putting some positive articles on the app. We do need positive energy as well. So, keep bringing the news as you have been doing and also keep bringing positive news as well.

Great way to keep up. NBC5’s app is a great way to keep up with the current weather and news in the DFW area. I’ve always loved the Channel 5 weather ever since started I listening to Harold Taft after moving here in the early 80’s. David Finfrock and Rick Mitchell have been really great weathermen and good presenters and I especially enjoy Rick’s light-hearted approach and weather quiz’s. All of the weather staff are experienced professionals who share their expertise and knowledge so readily. I spent 45 years flying and taught weather in the USAF’s pilot training curriculum. I enjoy seeing professionals share their knowledge, especially in times of severe weather.

Bad App - freezes for years now!. I have downloaded and deleted this app many times in the last couple of years and it is without a doubt, very poorly constructed. It constantly - and continually has for ages - freezes. This has been an ongoing problem the developer seems to have no interest in fixing. It does not run in the background - something you definitely want with Texas weather!— but you can’t keep it open or refresh it because it’ll freeze. I made a comment on here years ago that this app needed help but so far no one has done anything to fix the problems. Nothing has changed…. Look at all the reviews that say the same thing. Save yourself a lot of grief and don’t download this app! Find one that works because they are out there… sadly it’s not this one!

NBC5 App. I absolutely love this app. It keeps me informed every minute of the day whether it’s about the weather or breaking news. Other weather apps that I have used either lock up/freeze or shut down while using it. This app always gives me breaking news first before other local apps. My coworkers always get breaking news after mine come in. Great job, keep it up. Everything works well with my iPhone Xr.

Connects with Us. I have to say that after all this bad weather we’ve had in Fort Worth. I am more convinced that NBC5 is well connected with us. Although, it’s a time of fear and chaos NBC kept us updated and well informed. The application is user friendly and loads very quickly. Live news keeps me inform everyday on my way to work. Although, I am driving I am just listening 😌 and staying updated with what’s happening. Keep up the great work.

I’m getting rid of my app!. I’m sitting here watching the NBC Townhall with Donald Trump and the moderator. Savanah Guthrie has done nothing but talked and argued with Donald Trump instead of letting the audience ask questions which is what you’re suppose to do in a townhall! Even when the audience asks question and Donald Trump answers the questions, Samantha Guthrie interrupts him and starts going after him!! I will not watch your channel ever again! If you’re going to advertise that’s it’s a town hall then make the moderator stay out of it. She was ridiculous! Trump shut her down and made her look stupid and she looked totally biased and it was obvious she was a Biden surrogate!!! She is a joke as a reporter and journalist!!! I’m pulling my app and shutting it down! I will have Fox local app instead of NBC app. NBC has forgotten that they are suppose to be fair and balanced!!! No way!!!

The best in the Metroplex. I love having local news at my fingertips and the weather as well! Always up to date and as everyone who lives in the DFW area knows the weather can change on a dime. I trust the weather on channel 5 the best and I love the fact that it is at your fingers in this app!

Pathetic mobile app - shameful political bias. The NBC 5 Dallas-FW news & weather app has been deleted from my phone! Like so many others, I stopped watching the TV version of this subtly sneaky platform of extreme left political bias a long time ago but attempted to use only the weather feature of the mobile app. However, the app itself is fraught with bugs and is a nuisance to use, support from the most sophisticated hardware and iOS, notwithstanding. Most of the faces NBC 5 presents to its audience nightly as so-called journalists and reporters on TV exude WOKEism and constantly present a grossly obvious group-think and shamelessly unfair narrative. …drip drip drip

NBC5DFW App. Until today, I would have rated it four stars. We live in a rural area and NBC 5 is one of the few stations we can receive over the air, OTA. Having lived through years of rip-offs, I don’t consider satellite TV as an option. Today, the areas OTA TV reception was being impacted by an inversion layer, so we thought we would stream NBC 5 DFW, like mentioned almost every morning on the news, “now stream live on Apple TV”. That lasted about 15 minutes before a login was required and a request for a TV provider popped up. The weathermap is useful, but is no longer presents a live presentation. The News streaming requires a subscription and the weather app is slowly devolving to something less than useful, so this may become an unused app real soon.

Breaking News, Live Updates. NBC is always the first of my local news apps to get notifications of breaking news, live updates, etc. - Literally, their notifications get to me minutes, sometimes even 5-10+ minutes sooner than my other local news station apps on my phone. Most of all, their live feed sets the bar. I have tried live feeds on ABC and FOX from my phone and/or iPad and the quality is just terribly inconsistent - continuously spotty, feed cuts in and out, etc. I will continue to use NBC for all of my news updates. Thank you for investing in user-friendly and reliable software/resources to provide us with an overall great user experience!

Amber guyger. I have been watching the trial. My heart goes out to amber it is a sad day. I feel for the Jean family also. What kind of people run out and celebrate a person quilty of murder. They are already wanting to sue every police depart, amber. The preacher is a hypocrite a man of God should have said they are praying for the Guyger family,that they also need prayers. The Botham family should be praying and grieving. Celebrating on the court house steps, is totally ridiculous. Pray for Amber!!!!auntierene

How reassuring it was!. The news and weather channels had been forecasting severe weather but it wasn’t until my employer told us to leave our desk away from our computers and take shelter that I realized how reassuring it is to have access to the channel 5 weather app. Because I had downloaded the channel 5 app both me and my co workers could see what was happening and where.

NBC 5 of North Texas. I am thankful for NBC 5, both on tv, and this app. NBC 5 represents my area best what with the beast to the east (Dallas) stealing a lot of air time, I like to stay informed about what’s going on right here in my own area (Fort Worth)! Recently we moved out to the country (N W) and had a horrible time getting service (tv)! But I was able to keep up to date with all the news (Covid 19 especially) weather and current events right here on this app and felt good about being informed on what’s going on and what I need to know both with videos and readable reports and live tv! Thank you NBC 5, and keep up the good work!

Best weather worst app. For the love of God, separate the weather app and fix the UI and touch input. NBC has the best weather in DFW but this app is so bad it’s frustrating. The snap feature with the weather map is infuriatingly bad. Every time I scroll left-right on the hourly forecast, the map snaps open/closed no matter how careful I am to only scroll side to side. The advertisement background of the forecast screen is annoying at best. I’d pay to remove it. The widget is the closest to stock IOS but it’s too buggy to use reliably. I really want to use only this app for weather but I can’t stand the issues and I’ve given this feedback many times and the developers don’t care.

Weather on your app. Why did you permanently change your weather app from the general view to the satellite view, with NO option of going back to the other version?!! I’m still able to tap on a weather system, but instead of having a succinct breakdown of that system, I’m now given this two page info chart that I have to try to decipher and interpret. I do not like it at all, and wish you’d change it back, or at least give us the option of doing so!

This app is almost perfect but not quite. I love the idea behind this app but the execution is just not there. You can’t do anything without the live stream of NBC freaking out! I wanted to adjust my screens light so I pulled down the utilities menu on my phone. When I slid up it sent me straight back to the home page of the app. I went back to watch the stream and it came up with a service error, which always happens. I refresh it and it normally will work but it’s more than just trying to adjust something and the app reopening. I like to rotate and expand my videos but it is so fidgety!! There is no place to rotate the screen or zoom in/ out, therefore you can’t see the titles on news broadcasts, almost all of the time. It is so frustrating that I can’t manually press a rotation button. I’m left with it broadcasted tiny on the upper part of my screen because even when it does rotate to be bigger it almost always will go back to its small size on the upper half of my phone, even when in a horizontal position. Oh and when it falls flat on a surface it does the same thing. As I have said previously, the idea is great but the little errors get super frustrating and the videos don’t load 80% of the time... I’ll still keep this app but with a little frustration. It could all be due to maybe a new update needed or something.

Change the audio settings, and it’ll be great!. I use this app daily to keep up locally, BUT - if you’re listening to anything and open this app, it force stops your music just to open it. I’m not going to stop using it, I just want to be able to listen to music and read articles at the same time.

Awesome App. This is a great App. I use it daily for weather and news. It has great features for customizing the weather reports to display the elements that matter the most. And I also take a quick look from time to time to stay up to date with local events

My first look in the morning. As a teacher in the DFW area, my first few minutes in the morning (and last few at night) are spent checking my NBC5 app for the weather forecast. I spend a lot of time outdoors with students and want to help keep them prepared for any kind of weather. Thanks NBC5!!!

Channel 5 app keeps me informed. I wasn’t even aware I have the channel 5 app until we moved and stopped getting the Dallas Morning News. Hungry for up to date news stories I have turned to the app. Keeps me informed and is free not having to take out a personal loan anymore to purchase the newspaper.

I love channel 5!. Absolutely love this app and the nbc 5 weather team. The weather and traffic alerts are timely but not obnoxious. Do yourself a favor: download this app and enable notifications, then in the app settings select weather and traffic. You will be glad you did.

Great real-time app, it just needs an allergy report!!. I enjoy the app for local news & weather . I would like it even more if it included an allergy report, unless it’s there, I couldn’t locate it. Instead of having to look on separate weather page(the weather channel) to get an allergy report.

Love My Channel Five App. I use this app several times a day to check the weather and catch up on the latest news. I have my coffee with it first thing in the morning and read it again before I go to bed. It keeps me informed as I carry on my busy schedule each day. Keep up the good work!

Gets better every update. I use the app most for the weather and it continues to improve. The S-band radar is the most timely reason I use the app. Power went out last night just as the leading edge started to hit so the app is invaluable when I can’t switch to Channel 5.

Great Coverage of weather issues. Anytime we are concerned about the weather in Texas, we always know you have our back. Your weather coverage is great and keeps our family up to date on any issues. No other stations is fast as your professional staff. Thanks!

Such A Great App!. NBC 5 DFW App is so great!! You can get up to date info on current events & you can get alerts about news, weather, warnings, etc. You can even see the news broadcast live and watch NBC shows live sometimes. You can watch live streaming of current weather activity in your area. Such a great app!!!!

Great weather and news app. This app is great. I mainly use it for the weather. It is easy to use and I like how you can set the home page to what you want. I do use it some for traffic even though I work from home. I do like the notifications of news reports. It keeps me updated throughout the day.

The Best for Live Weather Radar!!. NBC 5 DFW App has Up to the minute News & Live Weather Radar! Weather Radar Is Live, What You See Is No Delay!!! Shows Rotation in Storms, Hail, Wind Speed, & Direction. Lots of Layers To Choose From. Also shows Debris Field From Tornado’s & Path They are Taking. The Best By Far. No Other Weather Channel Can Say That!!! 5 Stars!!!!!

Weather freeze’s especially when needed most!. Very frustrating! I have all of my other apps working but this one. The whole app is frozen no matter how many times I close it completely and reopen it. I will try a reboot but this happens more than not. I shouldn’t have to reboot my phone for an app to work like all the other ones I have. I don’t want to change to a different local weather either. I like this channel most.

Like the app. Like bing able to check weather for changes during this stormy season. Also like being able current changing local & national news current.

Setting the Bar. For the level of excellence this CH 5 app brings to the media world is unparalleled. For local and national news it’s the place where I go, and for weather information I go nowhere else! Weather radar information in Dallas/Fort Worth, people there is nowhere else to go to answer all your questions! Keep up the Great Work CH 5

Too much. This new app is awful. I just don’t like it. I stop using fox 4 app because of their redesign. It had too much stuff covering the map. You have done the same. Too much stuff covering the weather map. What was wrong with the original weather map? You know, the one that just gave the weather and nothing else. It just became another useless app for me to delete. What happened to the widget? Where is the live tv? How can I download version 6.13?

Weather. No other local news station compares to channel 5 weather department. I’ve been watching channel 5 weather forecast since 1969. Their extremely knowledgeable and that’s something no other weather station in Dallas/ Ft. Worth can offer.

News App. In the days of all the Local Networks offering News Apps, NBC DFW has stood out. I usually watch CBS but I like this App. It has embedded video as well written stories as well. The traffic alerts indicating a freeway closure have come handy as well. Who knows? I might start watching NBC on Uverse at home.

Weather blanks. I love the news station, particularly the meteorologists. They are usually spot on with forecasts. What I dislike, is this app. The weather portion freezes up frequently. It did the same thing on my previous iPhone as well, so it isn’t the phone. Streaming is iffy at best. I have tried removing then reloading the app to no avail. This has been going on for years.

Blatantly biased political “reporting”…despicable. Just read the NBC5 “article” about Trump campaigning in Waco. Read more like an editorial instead of a news item. This isn’t surprising, given NBC’s blatantly one-sided bias towards the Left. There are no journalists at NBC 5 anymore, just propaganda mouthpieces. Also, they send out “important” notifications about items on celebrities. This is important news? It comes off as slight and ridiculous. NBC 5 isn’t a news outlet anymore and the app certainly confirms that.

Time zone options.. I really wish there was a time zone option where you can choose for watch live. I would love to watch other nbc network channels such as Dallas and New York because there are times I wanted to watch that network show or news show at the time it actually happening.

A pretty good organized app. This app has been a pleasure to use. It is very organized and well designed. The weather section is nicely done, with all the radar info to keep me informed as to what might or is headed my way. It is highly recommended as a great news app and for weather watching.

Keeps me informed. We use the weather feature frequently particularly when storms a moving in at night . We have a satellite and can’t get coverage in bad weather. It helps to know what is happening locally . I can check for stories of interest quickly.

The updated iPad app is terrible!. I have used Channel 5’s app since moving to DFW in 2016. Suddenly, their new app is useless. Who wants to be stuck with the radar screen covering half of the weather page all the time? It’s impossible to see the hourly forecast. I love the weather people and will miss them. But this app is impossible to use and unfortunately I’m moving over to the channel 11 app for the storm season. Let me know when this is fixed!

Best application for local news/weather. Easy to use, very reliable, latest updates on current events. I have relied on channel 5 news/weather since Harold Taft, and they have never disappointed my planning efforts for weather prediction/reporting.

Useful weather coverage. I find this app useful for the weather. Sometimes, if not often, there is no weather coverage on TV because there is a show on, but I like that they may decide to continue live coverage through the app. In this way you can continue taking precautions.

Best most up to date news app in DFW. I used to rely on another app for local news. But they never offered the most up to date info. I could not find what I was looking for. This app is consistently up to date with current news and info. Bravo! Well done!

iPad version apparently abandoned. For the last week+, this app has not been working on my 11” iPad Pro. Upon launch, everything is frozen - it will not scroll or reorient and nothing is clickable (so there is no way to send feedback). I deleted and reinstalled the app twice (no dice). Just in case it was OS-related, I updated my iPad from 14.5 to 14.6, but app still does not work. Needless to say, after using the app for years and providing several feedback items, I am really annoyed at this turn of events.

Channel 5 News App, “It’s ver well done!”. Thank You Channel 5 Team! Your App is reliable, informative, and dependable. I just wish you would publish more of the great accomplishments that our Commander in Chief, and President of our Great country, USA, have made since he’s been in office. He has our country’s best interest at heart in everything he does!

I love this App❣️❣️. It keeps me updated whenever there is severe weather in the area with notifications. If I need a quick view of the news I have it. So easy and convenient. I never have an issue with opening the app and it is always current.

Staying current!. I have a hectic life running from job to job because I have three positions (Counselor, Teacher, and Pastor), so I don’t have much time to watch TV news. This app allows me to stay current with events by checking it throughout the day. The really enjoy getting my news from the NBC app!

NBC 5 App. Great for most reliable weather and news in East Texas. Try it, very easy to navigate all the latest happenings in DFW and surrounding areas. Also offers emergency weather alerts.I stay up on everything all day and night with the App. Every time I take a break I can read my updates best way to keep up every day!

No longer works. I downloaded this app so I would have access to local news and weather when we travel and when we are at our farm, where we have no tv or internet access. The app worked for a couple of months, but no longer works. And the link to tech support doesn’t work. As soon as I open the app, I get the message that it has timed out. When I finally get the app to open, it says I need to turn on location services, but they’re on. The app is useless when we are not at home. And I don’t need it when we are at home.

I think this a great friendly And reliable informational. Thanks for getting us through each day. Very informative and up to date on weather issues enjoy the group that works there.

ACTIVE # of cases in Covid Case-Tracker. I’ve never seen any other trackers report the ACTIVE cases broken down by state, area, and counties. To me, that number is very important, so I’m aware of the number of people walking around with it. Thank you for reporting those numbers. I haven’t noticed them being broken down that way on the newscasts. I think it would be very helpful to your audience.

Love NBC 5 app. Can’t write a review good enough! The app keeps me up to date and up to the minute! Especially depend on the weather. Can’t say enough good about it! I recently drove to relatives near Seattle. My NBC 5 app kept me up to the minute with weather up there and back to Dallas. It was also helpful as a map. Fantastic app!

Accurate forecast!. This app gives me accurate weather forecasts and news in the palm of my hand. The radar maps are amazing and give you weather forecast options such as past, present and future radar. This is a great help in scheduling my errands! This is the most accurate local weather reporting app that I use daily.

reports. This new way of putting out information is unfair for us that have eyesight problems. Why did they have to reduce the font size? I don’t feel like there was a reason to change the way these stories was here put out but the font could have remained readable. Please look into this and either change or explain. Thank you

NBC5. This is a very good station and app for local news. I especially enjoy the friendliness the anchors and reporters always display. The weather forecast are outstanding information and usually very correct. I received NBC5 as a top news and weather source. I feel I receive honest reports with out the sensational hype some of the station and apps have.

Great app!. As a weather geek it’s the only way to access their s-band radar. I love the way they stay file stories, it makes it easy to access. I have it installed on all my Apple TV’s in case they cover weather offline or between breaks. The information they provided has given me the peace of mind during severe weather season.

Love This Ap. We Love this Ap for all of the reasons possible.. From Traffic, News and Live Breaking News, But mainly use the site for the Weather.. The weather report has saved us thousands of dollars by allowing us to move our car into the garage prior to the hail storms hitting.. Thank You Channel 5 for All You Do.. Rick in Fort Worth

Good App for local DFW news. I like the app, however please fix the app so that whenever I’m listening to something on my iPhone and I click on the NBC5 notifications for a story the NBC5 App doesn’t hijack the audio and stop my previously playing program from playing. That’s the only annoyance I can find with this otherwise great app.

Great app. Great app great information and notifications come thru on time only thing I would like to see changed is a better weather layout having it split screen from the radar and forecast is a bit of a pain other than that great app.

Very strong reporting. The way they are constantly live and covering major local matters of consequence keeps me using this app and local news channel. I looked at channel 4 and they still were showing the weather report from last night! smh, channel 5 was running live, up to the moment broadcasts. Kudos to nbc

Great News App. I really enjoy getting timely stories, local weather and live broadcasts from this app. I get notification when there is a live story, which has been especially helpful for live COVID19 updates. I really appreciate the services that are available on the app, and it is user-friendly.

Timely and Quick Notifications. The notifications are quick. I literally was watching the news and the notification on a news story popped up before the story even aired. The app is easy to use and has great content.

Review. Most Thankful for the NBC5 News & Weather Teams!!!! The update(s) & timeliness of this App to report News & phases of Weather, especially inclement weather, has brought me such Peace. Many Thanks To NBC5 Team As Their Concern & Excellence In Keeping Your Viewers Updated On Both News & Weather Are Truly A GOD Send!!!! YOU ALL ARE AWESOME!!!!

My app hardly ever loads up?. What can I do to make the app work? 8/10 times that I try to open the app to either view the news or weather, it’s like it’s frozen and won’t load? I have to close out the app and open it up like 7 times before it finally loads and works. Only have this issue with this app. All other apps in my phone are operating great so I know it’s not an internet/connectivity issue. I really love channel 5! Please fix!

Easy to Use and Helpful. This app helps keep me updated throughout the day of any news I need to see. I like that O can personalize the information shown to my area yet easily find and keep up with happenings from around the metroplex. The weather section is helpful in that it is easy to navigate and it can be specific to my area.

NBC 5App. This is my go to app for all of my weather needs. When i get a notification this is where i can go and get the details. My daughter ow calls me for the weather of the day/week. I deleted all the other weather apps i had on my phone. Thank you for keeping us up to date.
