No visual pictures with stories. This is the second time I’ve downloaded this app. Initially, i didn’t recall the reason I previously deleted it. Two days into using the app, I’m frustrated to recall the reason. I’m dumbfounded to find there is only a single thumbnail picture available for each news article, which promptly disappears upon opening the story. Therefore, once opening the page to read a story, the only visuals available are large advertisements. Nothing correlating with the news article. It’s unbelievable that such a long-standing, reputable news outlet in a large city to have such low standards in decimating news.

Review-please read. Fox four cast and crew are wonderful. However, the feed connection is awful most of the time. It rewinds stories, has two stories going at once, or just freezes. It won’t work when I’m connected to WiFi at all. I’ll always still watch it but thought you might be able to help with the connection issues. Have a Good Day!

Morning news group. The morning news group is fun & informative. We watch them every morning & the 2 Jens on the weekend or part of our Fox 4 News favorites group also. Tim, Lauren, Evan & Chip give our mornings a lighthearted lift. Don’t care much for Dan Godwin though, seems like he has trouble thinking “on his feet”.

Keeps me up to date on Texas news. We don't subscribe to a local paper or watch a local Television news channel. I rely on Fox4 News to keep my aware of what is happening in nearby cities & USA. Happy with this app & the information it provides.

Local News. I was surprised and pleased to find that the Fox 4 News app was a reliable source for local news and events in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I did not find the political slant that you find on the national station. The app focuses on relevant local events and reports it in a straightforward manner. Very refreshing!.

Not receiving notifications. I have local news apps for myself as well as other cities where my adult children live. I receive multiple push notifications throughout the day from each of them (for example KRON 4 in the SF Bay Area notifies me of earthquakes, as well as other important news. But I don’t get push notifications from this App FoxDallas, even though I have the Notifications toggle turned on. I would have expected to receive notifications about the tornado, yet I did not. I’m disappointed and hope that I will receive more notifications about important Dallas/Allen news from this app.

Deficiencies. Two things about your app are most annoying. First, on the news feed, the same stories show up over and over, in random order, and they are often outdated. There is no organization to the page (Top stories, Local, National, etc.). Second, unlike most of your competitors, I cannot change the location on the weather page, much less save several favorite locations. And, please, don’t say get the WAPP. Why should I need, or want, two apps. None of the other local stations do that. I’d give you no stars, it it would let me. Thank you.

I Like Fox4. App is helpful to get the local news highlights. It has all the aspects of the news in a quick easy package. The only problem I have with it is the weather part doesn’t just give the temps of the week in one graphic.

No commercials before video!!👍🏼. Get your video without having to watch a commercial for something you're never going to buy especially when it's being forced fed to you !! Thank you Fox News for not trying to make a buck on every little thing.

Picture and picture. I enjoy being able to watch the local news from my iPhone. You all should update the app so it has picture and picture abilities. I’m a local trucker and I listen to the news to start my day out. All the other apps allow me to minimize the picture so that I’m able to use my gps as well. Right now the app cuts the video off if I close the app.

Tornado coverage. Thank you Fox 4 for streaming on your app during storms! I was in Utah while my family was ducking for cover during a tornado warning and was able to watch live coverage and see what was happening as it happened! I could not do that with any other Dallas station. Please add the streaming option to Roku, Xbox and other options so I can stay in touch with my home while traveling!

Grammar and Spell Check!!!!!!!. I appreciate quick access to local news and the app has stopped crashing as often since the latest update. Unfortunately, the writing is terrible. Granted I don't have a degree in journalism but I do know proper English. Most articles on Fox 4 tend toward horrid. What is the editor doing? Is there not a copywriter on staff? Is there no one capable of proofreading?!

Where’s the Search Bar?. If the search bar is there, I simply could not find/see it. They normally are right on top so you can search for any article (historical). I’ll have to go back out to safari to read whatever comes up 🤷🏻‍♀️. It’s a great app and one of my favorite stations but loses stars when I can’t find what I’m looking for and have to go elsewhere.

Love Channel 4 App!. Thank you Fox 4 News for your app and excellence in news reporting! Our family believes you are the very best news team! We try to watch the 10 pm news every night, but whenever we must miss it, we enjoy watching the news on the app later. And thank you for not siding with any political party. Keep up the great work!

THE WAPP. Having trouble with showing "future" activity. This has been since last WAPP update. Otherwise, I enjoy FOX 4 NEWS. Stories could be updated faster than they are. I also watch the TV broadcast. Love Lauren and Tim and the whole team. Love Jenn and Jennifer, too!

App. Really don’t like that pictures available frequently are NOT in the article so you can’t actually see it. Tonight it’s a loose inmate. Can’t see the picture. Before it was a murdered police officer. Can’t see that person. Little thumbnails then nothing in the article except maybe a video which I’ve by now read so only want to see the attached picture that isn’t there.

Right of center. One of the most balanced news sources available at present. Tends to be somewhat more sensational than Wall Street Journal, but also has a wide variety of coverage and topics. Much more likely to get both sides of an issue than with CNN or MSNBC, ABC, CBS.

Love Fox 4 but hate the app. Commercials come in fine, but the live broadcast on the app “rewinds” and then plays on top of itself. Sounds like two separate programs running. I have deleted the app and reloaded it. I have made sure my phone has all updates and I still have problems. But then it works when the commercials are on. Don’t have this problem with other apps that stream. Maybe it is that it is live. Idk.

Miss the old app. Some update within the last year really killed the user-friendliness of one of my formerly favorite apps. “Watch live no longer” functions without an “active” screen (as in touching the screen every 30 seconds to keep the screen from locking). It used to be my go-to app every morning, now I just open it once or twice a month to check for any signs of the previous interface being reverted..... You’re still my favorite news team, though!

Great app with good updates. I appreciate all the updates as quickly as they come. Would love to see the weather part updated more quickly as the tv updates. I am sure it’s hard with weather constantly changing. Love fox 4 no matter what!

The REAL Awsome Big Dad. The main reason I love FOX 4 is because you guys only care about reporting the news....No Sportscaster that’s been on Oprah, No Weather Reporter (notice I didn’t say Meterologist) that tries to ride on the coattails of said Sportscaster? I just want a clear, honest, truthful, presentation of the News. The only reason I didn’t give you guys 5 stars is because I want you to work even harder for that fifth star😉 Great Job!

News app. This fox4 news app is the single best news app I found, because it is the easiest to use and I can get the news through out the day before and after i get finished with both of my jobs, plus the news alerts allow me to get breaking news on the spot when I need it, if anyone is wanting a good new app I highly recommend this news app

Love it. Fox 4 DFW App is so much better than NBC 5 DFW. Better interface, better content, no annoying commercials (which drives me crazy with NBC 5 - don’t get me started about how much I despise the TXU Energy guy). I suffered through NBC 5 for years before I realized this was available. You won’t regret switching. Thank you for providing great news coverage. App is never glitchy. 👍🏻

Great app, horrible ads that interrupt the stories. Love the layout, easy to check local news stories. Easy to navigate around. But, there are too many ads thrown in between the paragraphs. You almost think the article is completed, then you scroll further, and there's the rest of the article. Very irritating, and a huge nuisance and a waste of my time and the "data" to have to scroll thru so much garbage. Recipes are awful, ingredients missing, or steps left out. And the pictures..the food hardly looks appetizing.

Used to be pretty good app. This was the only news app I’ve had since I got my first smartphone. Now I get disgusted every time I open the app. When you scroll down the home page, they show about 5 or 6 stories over and over again. You like that story? Good. Scroll down a little further and you can read it again and again. C’mon guys. You made the changes. Did you ever even look at it?

Love the app, not the update.. I just updated my app, and now every time I open it up, it has some “war music” playing in the background. Not sure if the update included “advertisement sounds”, but it gets a bit annoying. Maybe they will fix it with the new update. Thanks FOX4!

The Best. I thoroughly enjoy being able to pull up the news at my fingertips. Don’t always have time in the morning to watch it on TV. Very convenient and simple to use. Has all the up to date happenings also.

Fox 4 News. I’ve lived here in Dallas for over 40 years. Fox 4 News is my favorite local news source. They just get done right. I prefer my news without the slant or hidden agendas. Direct and to the point is what I like and this is what I find on Fox 4 News. To that I thank you all for your coverage of local news and sports. Yes, I am a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan.

Weather.. Always watch “4” because it is local. BUT, does any station know there is a southern area of Dallas. Always north, always weather in north, concentrate on north. You have viewers in the South. Half the time weather map does not even show the south, much less report what is happening in the south. I know more about Oklahoma than I know about Ellis County weather. Maybe it’s just perception. Thank you for local news and your perception of news. Bobbie Dlabaj, proud resident of Ellis County!

Never works, loads, and the voicing is always off track. This app barely works from the live streaming to the video playback. Frequently the voicing is way off and the same tracks overlap each other distorting the sound and making the news reports inaudible. I’ve always updated the app and my IOS but it still doesn’t work properly. I’ve had the app for a year and try it every morning while getting ready. Please fix the bugs!

Nice upgrade, but can’t see some pics. The upgrade is nice; however when you click on the picture for some news articles, the picture is no longer there when you go to read the article. The pictures are small when scrolling through the list of articles to choose from. I was hoping the picture would be bigger once you select that particular article, but the picture is not included in the article. Otherwise the upgrade is good.

Fox News. I watch Fox News, because I will get thorough information about local news. Fox also devotes more time to local news than their competitors. Unfortunately, this station is wrongly criticized or criticized for petty reasons by some of the viewers. Fox News continue doing a great service for our area.

FOX4 News. I rarely watch tv. That being said, I love FOX4 to keep me updated on what's going on here and in the world. It is a lot t less time consuming than watching the news. I have nothing negative to say about this app. Give it a try; you may find, as I did, you love it

App update has broken “watch live”. One star. Unfortunately. now read content only. Used daily to stream news. Getting error “Server Error unfortunately something went wrong try again later”. Same result when try again. Same result when updated app. Same result after complete delete of app and reinstall. Plus the app support link in the App Store sends you to a “page not recognized”. What incompetence with quality testing and messaging to end users.

recent update gone wrong. I’ve never had issues with FOX 4 app watching the DFW news. But as of the last four days, I am unable to view any live feed from the fox for Dallas studio. All of it is national news. Watch Orlando news on DFW live link. please fix this issue. If there’s a weather emergency, many people don’t have cable or access to regular TV. This is the only way I’m able to watch television without having an antenna.

Love Love Love. I LOVE Fox Four News and Fox News, I have both apps on my phone. Always nice to have real news then the fake stuff that CNN or MSBC has, they just can’t seem to get it together and always lie about everything then take whatever Republicans say out of contexts to twist it to how they think it “should be”.

Fox News. This is the only news outfit that I trust to be honest, thorough and available consistently at all times. Fair and balanced is not just a nice sounding line for them. They always have or attempt to to invite people who represent all sides of an issue to allow the viewers to make an informed decision about important things that really matter to them. Unlike most other news agencies that present only negative, extreme left commentary that actually turns most viewers off! Keep up the good work - You’re device is invaluable! Alex Clough

Can find relevant news, weather and traffic.. Like this team of reporters in the morning, to get my day started. The WAPP is very helpful. Only picky is the banner with time and temp on TV is no longer visible(and hasn't been for a long time) on any TV in the house. It's so far to the left side it's not visible. I go to other stations for that info. Overall, well done Fox 4!

Live View is Awful. I travel for work but like to keep current on local news. The live app has just gotten worse and worse. It used to be reliable but since the greed for all the advertisement has been added, it's less than dependable. It pauses and you miss the headline after coming back from break. Luckily the CBS and NBC affiliates work better so I can watch them and keep current. The readable news stories are good and usually work well. Hopefully the developer will get some help in developing a reliable app.

Redesign is awful. Recent update basically makes it look like the website, which is super disorganized. The app also now contains fewer articles due to the overlap of their “sections”. I already miss the clean quick way you could get all the important local news. I will be looking at other local news apps because if I wanted their terrible website I’d go to it. This app will no longer be one of the first things I open in the morning.

Thank You. I love watching Fox 4 News. I especially enjoy Steve and Heather as they are always professional in reporting the news. They also have great personalities and their bantering with each other is so entertaining. They, and everyone else dresses well and looks so sharp. The weather forecasts couldn't be any better. I greatly appreciate the storm warnings for all of our protection. Thank you so much to each of you.

Review of Fox4 News feed. In my humble opinion, this news feed site is the BEST in the Metroplex. Always updated and full of information that concerns us. I feel that this is the most factual news reporting web site for the Metroplex. I no longer live in DFW but try to keep up with ‘what’s happening’ and I head to Fox4 for my fix.

Always a Liberal Slant in a Conservative State. Very Frustrating. Only use it for local news and sometimes weather. Also have to look past multiple and numerous grammatical mistakes in every article. This is frustrating coming from a news organization. Half the time the articles read as though they were written by a news bot.

I am done with this app.. Constant re-wracks where the tape literally backs up and then repeats and repeats small segments of previously viewed content. Latency. Takes forever to load. Commercials constantly start, re-start and re-start during commercial breaks. It’s enough to drive one nuts! I’m switching to NBC affiliate. At least they run promos and the content doesn’t stall and restart over and over again. The news content flows without interruption. Am I seeing a pattern here? Ch. 5’s app runs smoothly and yours does NOT!!! It’s obviously not my carrier or my computer (nor the iPad). It is ALL Ch. 4’s problem. NO stars from me.

Fox 4 only!. I only watch Fox 4 News because it seems your news reporting is more unbiased then the other DFW stations. I can’t stand the liberal slanted fake news from other stations. And you’re not trying to look like some entertainment show like channel 8! Plus I love the Viewer’s Voice! The stupid comments on there and Steve’s responses make me laugh out loud!!

Fox 4 news app. I have eliminated watching news from my life. I had to make changes and cut out the repetitive negative messages. I have enjoyed it keeping up with the news with this app. I can pick and choose what information I want to know since too much negative news can have a negative impact on me. Works great for local information.

Ups too date new stories. Great sight to get news. Only downside is the search feature never pulls up news stories. Even when the stories are found on the sight.

No longer readable. I used this app daily for years. Something has drastically changed. The recent update is awful. Stories are repeated two or three times, content is nonexistent or poorly worded. Use of AP reported content instead of locally written. I deleted your app. Makes me sad that something that was once very well done has turned into something I can no longer tolerate. I gave you three starts for past success - currently I would give you a one.

Better Local Coverage. News always provides more details & are up to date. They are not intermixed with advertisements that appear to be news.

Too many Issues. I love Fox News, but this app needs some serious work. When watching the broadcast if my phone alarm goes off or I have to swap screens to answer a text when I flip back I have to watch a 60 second commercial or if I adjust my brightness on my phone, not even close the app, and it restarts with another 60 second commercial and then I lose where I was in the news cast and often cannot back it up by that point. Please fix these issues and it will be a stellar app...

All over. The app freezes up a lot. The sound goes up and down! As a truck driver I want to know what’s going on back home and this app should do better but it has not for over a year!! I guess it is what it is!

Morning crew. Good way to catch up with local news. It is nice to see what Evan will wear, he has good taste. Of course Lauren is beautiful; Chip helps me get to work on time. Lastly, it would not be as enjoyable without Tim’s wit and colorful personality. Good job.

Local. Like having local news all morning

New Format. I like the layout of your new app. CBS could learn from your example. It is nice to be able just to scroll down on the opening page to get a great news overview.

Stories repeat themselves over and over. I’m not really fond of this app. If you scroll down the exact same stories keep coming up over and over. Why is the same story on this app four different times as you scroll down? Fill the page with news stories and only once!

Ads with sound. I love this app but I hate that some of the ads now have sound even when I have my phone set to silent. I like to catch up on the news before I go to bed but now I can’t because some of the ads have sound and it wakes up my husband. Love the app just not the ads with sound.

Love the app; hate the advertisements that block the screen every other five seconds. the screen every other five seconds. I usually click on the link and say don’t show again but it rarely does any good. Otherwise; GREAT app.. Sean in Casa View; NE Dallas

Title. It’s a great way to keep up with what’s happening in the world not to long ago I went on Fox 4 news to see my friend died in bus crash so you should really get the app it keeps u safe also

Best news station. Fox 4 is everywhere ! I see them all over the metroplex gives out latest news and always accurate love fox 4

News reports. I feel channel 4 news is very informative for all of DFW. And the news reports and the metrologist are very professional. I really like having access to the news on my phone. Thank you, J. Neal

Add Picture in Picture setting. If you add Picture in Picture we could stay more up to date

Love My Fox 4. I look at my Fox 4 news and weather app as soon as my alarm goes off in the morning and when I go to bed every night. Thanks for always keeping me up to date!

Timeline and articles on point. Thank you for all the latest update and reporting written on point, easy to understand.

Getting worse. Stories are becoming more liberal leaning. They very rarely update stories. The only good point is out of all the media groups even Fox News now moderately liberal articles are more conservative than the rest. The stories on this app are very very slowly updated or replaced. The Fox News National app is soooo much better. The Fox 4 app is basically useless. The same stories stay on the app for days at a time. Horrible!

Top notch Coverage. These guys go after news that counts. Always have. We’ve come to count on them year after year.

Pretty good wish weather part was better. I don’t care for how busy the weather part is with advertising. I want quicker access to radars especially living in tornado alley. You have to scroll through too much BS to get to it, otherwise great app

Waaay too slow and too many ads get in the way. Very slow to load. Ads take up lots of room. It's confusing which is a story and which is an ad. Even ads don't take you to what they are showing. Two stars because the content is decent, but a very unfriendly app to use.

news alert notifications will not reset to 0. The news alert notification number keeps growing & does not reset back to 0 after opening the app and watching the alerts

Pop up ads. Thank you so much for getting rid of those obnoxious pop up ads!!! I enjoy reading the news much more now!!

I Love my Fox 4 Channel. We currently don’t live in the DFW area right now we currently are living in West Texas. And when I do go back home in FtWorth I have to turn on my news station to Fox 4

Not always up to date. This is 11:46am on June 29 and all news on your site is from June 28. This seems to happen routinely. The news coverage is good, just not always current.

We only watch Fox News. !!!!. They are the only believable news. All the others are fake news and fail to report on our President Trump accomplishments.

Up North. I love being able to keep up with what's going on in North Texas, you see I'm down south at the coast and we have a lot of family and friends that are there!

Fox News. The most important correct news in America today. The other news is trash

Dependable. Fox is where I get most of my news. If I watch another channel, it’s only to see how the msm has spun the truth to fit their agenda...and then laugh about it!

TRASH. I’ve never seen a news source update SO slowly, especially for breaking news whether is be locally or nationally. Not sure if it’s a reflection of the app or the news source itself but i switched to WFAA. A millions ADs on the page but no UPDATED news or current events .

I want to love it. I have watch this news station for most of my life for local news. Sadly on the app the live video is always crashing, pausing, rewinding and fast forwarding...usually all within about a 30 second period. Finding a new way to get my local news.

Great way to keep up with local news. Just enough to know what's going on locally. Also, able to know what is going on (that's interesting) outside my immediate area.

Fox 4 News. I love Fox 4 News because I can trust your reporting on the issues of the day. When I get your reports of the day I’m trusting you to report the News truthfully. Thank you so much! J.R. Riddle

Inconsistent. I like to watch the live newscast while getting ready for work. I love the app when it works but it’s inconsistent to the point of frustration. Sometimes the commercials play over and over and the news never shows. I deleted the app

Johnnie. My favorite is the morning show with Tim And Lauren. In the evening I watch the 9pm news because I usually go to bed at 10 pm. Evan is my favorite weather person. He makes weather fun. Thanks for asking for my comments. Johnnie Newton, Dallas PD, retired.

Best in metroplex. While absolutely refusing to acknowledge the mess that is Dallas politics, Fox 4 does an admirable job of the daily craziness that is the result of humanities efforts at extinction. Heavy coverage of LGBTQ events, along with incredibly biased coverage of anything Christian. But compared to NBC & CBS KDFW is still worth watching for local events.

Slowness of app. Your App is very slow with updating from old news to new. Sometimes (like now) your App continues to display old news when other competitive Apps update several times daily. This is truly an issue that needs to be fixed.

Live news. Are y’all having trouble with the app? I can’t get it to bring up the live news thanks

Live Coverage Is Inop. Recently been experiencing issues trying to watch live coverage. It goes in and out but mainly just a black screen - no video, no audio, nothing. Breaking news in Dallas I want to watch but once again the app is messed up. Come on guys, please fix it. Once you do I’ll give you five stars.

Page redirection. Seems the app is not functioning properly, every time I click on a story thats listed on my Facebook feed it never takes me to the story, it takes me to the main page where i have to search it and sometimes its not listed.

Utility of App & news coverage going downhill. The latest update of the app is in a format that has taken several steps backward in allow the user to sort through the news stories. I have also noticed the anti-Trump and pro Democrat bias has noticeably increased in the last several months. Definitely not balanced coverage.

Fox news channel 4. I have to watch channel 4 news they have all the current topics and I just love all the staff especially Tim Ryan he is so down to earth of course I love Evan and Chip and Lauren I never miss The news on channel 4

Biased and unprofessional. One can tell the political leanings of the staff and in every "slam Trump" article. These nitwits continually do not proofread their articles before publishing and many times publish articles with false links and then they stay that way for hours. It's not hard to double check words and links. Probably sloppy snowflakes staffing the app.

Great news app!. I love being able to check either the weather forecast video or the extended forecast, the recipes, and especially the consumer news and gift guides at Christmas

Awesome news in a timely manner. Up to date on current news always

How about keeping it up to date. I go to the site to see what is happening currently and see articles from yesterday and days past instead of what is happening NOW. Sometimes this is my only local link to news, make it worthwhile for me to get up to date news and sports.

Great news station!. I love Fox 4 News channel (local). Always on track with latest news and weather and love the news team. I love how they are always polite and classy.

Love it. Easy to use, keeps you updated as the day goes on or if you aren’t able to watch the news before or after work.

Number ONE. Love Fox 4 but I wish they updated the news on the app, breaking news can only be read after it is put on the air. (Regular news time)

New Fox 4 app. I used to love getting news on my iPad from you. The articles were easy to read and you could see at a glance what each item was about. Now with your new update I have to search for what I want and so much is now is very confusing. There are other news sources which I usually use now. So sad going from a top rated app to one that I only occasionally go to now.

Ch 4 Dallas Fox. It is great ti be able to stream Ch 4 on my iPhone. We can watch the two Jenny’s on the weekend - although we moved to the Austin, TX area - we can watch some of our favorite shows.

Trust-worthy news reporting. I am confident that the news is accurate and not slanted either way. The news is dependable and not riddled by the personal opinions of the reporters. Thank you Fox 4!

Good Day makes my day. I can’t help but laugh at some of the things they say or do on the show. Their spontaneous reactions to ridiculous events are priceless. Now that’s entertainment.

Texas news. It's a good news channel if you can't see the news at 9:00 or at 10:00 you can read it the next morning. I like Tim in the mornings when I'm off. Dear The morning time.
