Weather. You have the best radar nobody can beat it I look at it a lot I can depend on it it’s got the right back ground it’s very clear I’m a nut when it comes to your Radar so don’t change it it’s perfect I’m talking about my phone I’m 75 years old and you will always be by my side keep up the good work Sam Allen Salisbury n.c

Chatty Hattie. Thank you Channel 3 for this interview. It’s always uplifting and heart felt to see and hear the Legendary Chatty Hattie. Yes I love and respect her dearly. I graduated from her private College in 1999, and I could never be more appreciative for the education under her tutelage. Thank you Channel 3 for keeping Ms Hattie in the spot light. She truly is news worthy. Sincerely, Libbie Gates

TOO MANY ADS!. The app itself is great, but the amount and type of ads are infuriating. I would gladly pay a reasonable YEARLY or slightly higher one-time fee to remove all ads. I would also love a dark mode when reading articles.

New app. Updated phone this week and new format is more trouble than old lot harder to Veiw started using 36 more because I just really didn’t like new version having to put a nickname to submit is a little ridiculous plus al are taken

Website updating is slow. Am I the only person that has recently noticed that the web page stories are not updated quickly ? Compared to other TV sites, it seems that the articles are not updated with new stories or the old story is a day behind.

Hurt viewer Disappointed. I am appalled that you would entertain the idea or survey of President Biden impeachment. You have Trump who led an insurrection and started this withdrawal. He refused for a year to honor visas Biden cares about the country. Trump was not impeached for a that he did. I will stop watching your channel because you have crossed the line. I am not a Democrat but I am an American. How about Trumps courting white super mist views. You should be ashamed to even conduct such a survey. Shame on you. I thought you were nonpartisan. Boy was I wrong!

I do NOT watch the commercials!. When I go to see a news bulletin from WBTV but am forced to watch a commercial, WBTV immediately looses me. I click out of there and go look for the story somewhere else. Why would I want to wait on a commercial for an important news bulletin? You loose me!

Content good, bad app. Hate to say it bc this is a pretty good news group but the app is terrible. Lags or just won’t load. Have to close a bojangles fried chicken ad every time I’m able open or view one of the categories. Should look for different developer or structure. Older version vastly superior.

Too many ads and fake news, rarely use it. More worried about creating more spam for myself than getting a valid news article to read

Inaccurate Reporting. No availability for written feedback! I want to complain that on QC AM they incorrectly reported that cicadas are once every 200 years. Not Right!! The once every 200 years is the two different cicadas emerge together!!! Inaccurate reporting is not acceptable. It needs to be corrected!! Elizabeth Gut

WBTV Rocks. Thanks for being a wonderful news station!! You all seem to work well together and the coverage during the hurricane was fantastic by the weather folks!!

Too many ads. I use to love the WBTV app until this new update. There are so many ads just scrolling that you can’t read the titles good anymore and the titles run together with just black words on a white page not even separating the titles efficiently. Please just give the news without so many ads!!

WBTV/Trump. I really love you guys❤️ And I love the App it's right on time. Thank you for all you do for us. I have to say CNN sent this notification at 2:14 am. The message alert for it woke me up? I thought to myself, do you guys live with the President?LOL😂! But you guys are on time!! Don't worry I am not complaining! Cause you guys are the best? I have been watching you since I was a little girl? I am 54 now.

Useless articles. To many useless articles. Man waiting on his wife at Christmas Show. Such a stupid article! Rowan DA article. Another stupid article. Doesn’t this happen everyday in courtrooms?

Awful. Since the update I get 15 notifications an hour and none show up in the app. It’s slow and too klunky. Will delete and look at it again when you fix it.

Media coverage. I think there should show equal coverage of police killing of any race . To much time pushing race as reason blacks killed by police and little on the other skin colors. The media stirs the pot. Report the true news. Killing is wrong except if your life is threaten . Stop making these criminals out to great people most have long criminal history white brown and black except in rare cases. How about more time spend when a police officer is kill one time is not enough. Thank you for letting me vent..

To many pop ups. I get I have to see an add before I read an article but pop ups? And every time I navigate to another section? No thank you. Delete

Sorry for the 1 Star… 0star is not an option. Used to love my WBTV app. Closings section does not work. The new alert sound you have chosen is absolutely atrocious and I can’t change it. And the amount of click bait, fake news stories, etc, etc that you have in the app is horrible. I know we all have to pay bills (ads). But you cannot pay your bills without compromising your integrity as a new service? It must be time for some new leadership within your corporate structure, failures like this often happen at top management levels. There are many more flaws within the app, I will not further waste my time explaining them to you. Please download the app yourself, use, look around and let me know if you can still take yourselves seriously as a news source. (Similar flaws exist in other local news apps, and I will get to them shortly too) Feel free to contact me and discuss… as you can see, I do not candy coat….

News - Weather - Traffic - Daily Must-Have. I find myself accessing WBTV more than any social media account. With breaking news, all the wacky weather we’re constantly experiencing, and daily traffic - It’s comforting to know; I’m provided the MOST up-to date information and alerts! Thank - You, WBTV!

Horrible changes. This app used to be somewhat easy to navigate but the recent changes have made it so chaotic that I will just get my news from WSOC

Updated App is HORRIBLE!!. Constantly getting pop up adds. App and stories are slow to load. The old app was much better. If this continues, will delete app.

Update more often. Needs to be updated more I don’t want to see 3 day old news. Needs to be within 24 to 36 hours not 3 or 4 days old

WBTV App. This app is horrible. They have the news for my hometown is the reason I got it but it’s hard to get to the news because of all the pop up ads. Their latest update made the app more difficult and did not stop the pop up ads. Don’t waste your space and time on it.

Ok, but... It works fine for stuff that is already there. It seems very unstable. Whenever I try to add a location for the weather it crashes. It has also crashed when I've tried to make other adjustments in the settings. Also I have an ever increasing number of notifications for which I am unable to view. If I open the notifications tab, it's always empty. When I tell it to clear notifications, the number pops back up after a few minutes.

App crashes when opening after latest upgrade. After updating, the app will no longer open.

Selected news coverage. I find it strange that WBTV does not cover all news equally. Just strange how they cover former President Trump’s legal woes and not cover DA Willis’s legal issues. First, I thought, well it must be that it is not in NC and then I realized, that WBTV covers a lot of news that does not occur in NC. Please quit putting politics as an agenda in your news. Report the news accurately regardless of the politics involved.

Clunky and outdated. The news app is clunky and outdated. It is 12/26 and the news is still showing the weekends news. I want to see current local news that is current and I don’t want to see the same articles over and over. If I wanted that, I’d buy a paper and leave it on the table.

New format 👎🏼. I don’t like new format where the home page has a bunch of garbage then you have to click at the top to get the news. I come here for the news and not the extraneous stories and if I can’t get it in one click I’m not using it anymore . Deleting the app today until you can fix it .

No follow-ups. Not sure if this correct place to express my views but only way I found so far. News articles are relatively good but I never see any follow-ups on lingering news items even though it’s stated there will be a follow-up.

Hate the new update!. I’ve been using the new app for several weeks now and I still find it difficult and counterintuitive to use. The only reason most people ope the WBTV app is for news and you have to click to view top stories. Then you get there and the headlines aren’t complete because they are too long. I really tried to give it a shot but this is a downgrade, not an upgrade!

Was my favorite!. Was my favorite app for news and weather for years until the last update. Now it just closes every time I try to open it. 😢 please fix this and I will change it back to 5 stars.

WBTV ioys for real. When a luxury home blew up in Ballantyne BT honored the request to keep their distance for the sake of victims and emergency personnel. As a mom to both police and firefighters this blessed my heart.

Not current news anymore. Your news updates are no longer being current. Most of what is on the site is multiple days old. Prior to this new app update it was a little better. When I first started using the app their news appeared to be more current. Starting to look for a new app for my news

Mews is generally good but look is disturbing. What is up with the overly made up female cast? Think this has gone a bit too far.

Trustworthy & accurate. Great local coverage in & around Charlotte

Doesn’t work most of the time. I’m on a newer iPhone and try to watch live news and it hardly ever works. It is even worse after this latest update.

WBTV News App upgrade. DO NOT LIKE THE UPGRADE!! Wish I could go back to the old app! Too hard to navigate, too many interruptions with noisy “news breaks”, and can’t find half of what I’m searching for! As the old saying goes, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it”! I wish the review would allow for no stars because that’s what I’d give!

New update. HORRIBLE!!!! You click an article from the notifications and it closes the app and does not open the article

WBTV. WBTV is the BEST! I rely on the station to provide the weather and news! Great programming as well! You get it all on WBTV!!

Upgrade for Quick Access. Really wish I didn’t have to see a bojangles D each time I clicked on a story

Bring back the original app please. I don’t see how this app is better at all. EVERY time I open it a full page ad appears for spectrum and ads are so abundant on the page I’m reading it’s extremely distracting. I am a huge fan of WBT radio, long time listener and have turned to you for local news but please....this app is not an improvement in any way, shape, manner, or form. I’ll be forced to delete it from my phone if this isn’t improved upon. Thanks.

Terrible update. Unless an improved update happens very soon, I plan to delete this app. The previous versions were far superior compared to what we have now. Tell the teenager who developed this app to use Agile for your next release.

Unable to download. Says my I phone is too old to download 😮

Revised App means drop in Quality. Usually when an app is upgraded with a new release it is characterized by many improvements. This one was a Giant Step backwards. This app now has extreme redundancy, with a single story appearing up to four times in one listing. Reading down the page is over worn by numerous large advertisements and often multiple copies of the same ads. Besides repetition of ads and stories, the delisting under multiple sub headings makes this app much less likely to be used by me. Community sub headings are worthless when they do not provide new information that is not already included under the general topic of news. In summary this release was a major disappointment. I find myself relying on it and watching this channel much less frequently. Unless it gets much better quickly, I will delete this app entirely.

Too many pop up ads. I just updated the app and the ads are about 3 times what they were before.

This app will NOT download. I like WBTV , this app was working , but I have tired repeatedly to download it again to my iPad & it will not download, yet all the other ones do fine. I have been trying for months, WHY CAN’T YOU FIX THIS THING ?!

Too Many Ads. Clicked on an Alert and had to go through 3 ADs before getting to Article. Alert did not even take me to Article. Hate their new App. I have just turn off all alters, while deciding whether to delete App

Fake news. I will be not watch your news no more if you want to lie I’m done you have put my life as well as other people’s life at risk I’m done with all the news stop lying for bill gates and his followers get you a chip not me

Good news app. Good news app for Charlotte nc. Some surrounding towns. I’ve unchecked the news bout sports but still get news bout sports. Don’t give a hoot bout overpaid sports players.

Update is not user friendly. The update from a couple of weeks ago is not very user friendly. There is also an issue with the notifications. There is almost always a high number of notifications that show up in the bubble, but when ai click the bell within the app, I’ve noticed some are older. Also, when clicking on the notification (which I assume should take the user to the article), the app crashes. This has happened since the first day of the upgrade. I occasionally try it to see if it’s fixed, but the problem persists. In case it matters, I’m using the app on an iPhone XS Max.

Ads. No other News Channel in the Charlotte market has ADS why does WBTV have ads????? I hate this app h

Old App was great!. Loved the old app! Easy to navigate, had trending, not too many ads. Am deleting WBT app and replacing with WSOC. So disappointed. I expected better from WBT.

News. The news is usually weeks old. Seniors hasn’t been updated since last year. Can’t locate good news or southern weekend. Very disappointed

Fantastic!. Not quite sure why some of these bad reviews here..I find the app to be very useful! As far as the weather goes, WBTV has a new separate weather app that is outstanding and I use throughout the day. This is definitely the app to use to keep up with all the local and breaking news.

Major disappointment. From the latest update a couple of days ago, this app has been nothing except an excuse to take up space on my iPad. The update, fails to launch, rendering it useless. You are better off ignoring this app until the news station gets around to fixing this mistake. Don't get me wrong, I like WBTV news and am a regular watcher, however, they are obviously not a software development company, and so should stay out of the business, and hire professionals if they want to provide a professional app. This version, is far below most every rookie app developer I know, and I am in the business.

WBTV App. This is the most cumbersome app I have ever used! It never goes to the “click-bait” link. I am un-following you now!

Apple Nez. App would be great if it would open. It seems to be down 45% of time. Always prompts me to Retry.

Fix it. New app looks good but functions poorly. Less options to dial in on the news you want to see.

Eliminate all political bias. Bias diminishes the quality and reliability of information reported.

Update. Horrible update. I agree with “update means drop in quality”.

Bad update. Just updated the app and now it will not open

Upgrade problems. Newest upgrade doesn’t work. It launches and then the display disappears. The app is still active, but is useless. The dispaly is not usable.

Format. The new format on the app is terrible.

Removing app and will not watch again after treatment of Molly.. Will not watch this station again.

New app. Based on what I am reading, I don’t plan to upgrade to the new app.

Garbage adds. This news app is trashed with garbage adds. I won’t use it anymore.

App crashes. App use to work but crashes now

WBTV Upgrade. New upgrade is terrible. Bring the old app back! Too much clutter and difficult to navigate.

Redesign. The WBT news homepage is not user friendly. It needs to be redesigned. Take a look at the Fox News site for an example.

Old news. Not up to date on weekends. Can go to 9 or 36 and it’s more up to date

Commercials. I do not want to see a commercial to spot check the latest news.

Live News. The live news video doesn’t play. Keeps giving error.

Don’t like it. Like the old one better

Commercials Obtrusive. Has been my go to app for local news, but lately the obtrusive commercials that constantly pop up have ruined what was once a good app. They cover over half of the screen on a smart phone, and if you try to scroll down by them, the commercial opens instead. Infuriating and poorly done, so I will delete the app and go elsewhere for local news. What good are all the commercials and "click throughs that WBTV gets paid for if the users delete the app because it has become more trouble than it's worth. No views, no click throughs,=no revenue!👎😁

New Layout is awfull .. whatever people,,,,,!!. Go back to normal layout.. this is just confusingly painful.

FIX IT!. Since the “update” this app crashes at startup. Please fix it!

New app. This new app is not user. I used to use the app several times a day, but now I rarely use it. Very disappointing.

Nope. Have to sit through an ad to get to an important breaking story. Plus pop ups. Bye

All ads. The new update is terrible. Too many ads.

Crashes. The app crashes now after this latest update

Awesome. I love this app

One time good now almost useless. This app use to work. Now it crashes constantly. Does not display live coverage and does not sort local news anymore.

Great. Always on my side the best!!

Live Stream NEVER Works. The live stream for this app never works it just replays commercial after commercial. Same with their live stream on their website.

Crashing. This app I used everyday but the last update it crashes on ipad and iPhone please fix

WBTV news app.. Likewise, the new app won't open for me either! Please fix! Had no problems with old app and enjoyed using it. Update, still not working!! Do the app developers look at these reviews? Apparently this new upgrade is not working for anyone! I'd the old app back. It worked and I enjoyed using it. Now I have no access to mobile WBTV news!! Please fix this app soon or give advice on how to make it work on iPad. Icon appears on home screen but when clicked it disappears April 4th. Another update and I've updated my star rating from 1 to 5! Hooray!!! New app now working great. Thanks WBTV.

The fonts setting does not work. Fonts are too small.. The

Does not load. Keeps trying to load but never does

NOT WORKING. I upgraded to your current app, it’s not working with the current version of software on iPhone. I gave you a low rating to get your attention.

New Update???. App doesn’t work. Great job!!!

Crashing. Latest update is crashing on iPhone

Review of WBTV!. I have always watched WBTV for the latest on news, weather, sports and more. I remember seeing the news all the way back to when I was a child. It seems like WBTV is going down hill though. I don’t believe in race baiting or “stirring the pot” so to speak. Here lately that’s all they do is stir the pot! All of their news stories are posted in a way that promotes hate and race baiting. They really focus on stories where a white person harms a black person. When it’s the other way around they do not cover the stories as much or at all! I think if you are going to cover a story, then cover all the stories! Why do they (WBTV) not cover stories when white people are harmed by black people? Also when there is a shooting involving the police, they make the bad guys seem like saints! I do understand that there is good and bad cops, just as there is good and bad people in every profession. However WBTV chooses to make the cops look bad in all stories involving police shootings. Which in return makes the communities in which the shooting take place upset and ready to riot, vandalize, and just act a fool! I think it’s just their new normal to make their stories sound like racism is on the rise, when in all actuality it’s been on the decline for years! It is definitely a sad time in our history, due to social media and cell phone cameras. Everyone gets the videos and photos of the incidents and edits them or only gets the parts that make the incidents look racial. Then WBTV picks it up and puts their twist on them to make it look way worse then it truly is! If one of the WBTV employees was robbed or involved in a crime, they would be screaming for the police to elope them. Also if it wasn’t a racial crime would they still make it out to be a racial crime? Also why is it when a white person harms a black person it is a hate crime, but when a black person harms a white person it’s just a normal crime? I mean technically, aren’t all crimes hate crimes??? They don’t commit the crimes because they love the other person! I wish we could just start calling a spade a spade! Let’s stop putting a racial spin on every story! As long as we are divided we will never be united! All of these elderly people that’s been attacked by BLM people and just black people in general never get mentioned by WBTV! Here a couple weeks ago there was a shooting at a party/gathering in Charlotte. There was about 5-6 people killed if I remember correctly and several others injured. It wasn’t labeled a mass shooting like it is when a white person shoots more than 2-3 people. I’m sure my review will not change anything WBTV does but I made my review anyway. WBTV you have lost my respect for you as a news source. I hope one day you can go back to the respectful, equal reporting you used to be known for! Until then I’ll get my news from an unbiased news outlet! Good luck and God bless the USA and ALL of her people!

Crashes on opening. Now crashes when I try to open it on both iPhone and iPad.

Fridaygirl 50. Great news App

App Issue. App no longer works since last update 4 days ago.

New Format. The new format is very hard to decipher.

Annoying. Makes noise throughout the night.

WBTV. I love WBTV From Nicholas

CANT EVEN OPEN IT! WHATEVER. Closes every time I open it. Please fix

Errors. Does anyone edit anything? Links for some stories go to video of a different story.
