THANKS WKYC. I’m a Clevelander (born in Cleveland, raised in Maple Heights...Go Mustangs “63) now living in Detroit. Thanks WKYC for keeping me in touch with my Home City & State! Your App is great, always first to give me breaking news around the world and back home. I love “ The Best Location in the Nation” and WKYC....NBC in Cleveland!

Ads. I understand ads are needed to pay for quality work. And I don’t mind them before the video starts. But to show another ad just because you want to expand the video to full screen? And if you expand to soon you get taken to a video game page!? You then go back and start the whole process over again! Has this been brought up before?

Always on top of things!. Late breaking news disseminated quickly and kept up to date!

Lack of tennis coverage. Wondering why WKYC doesn’t cover tennis. A WTA tournament is being played in Cleveland and there is no mention of it. There really are more spots than football, baseball and basketball 🎾

Love channel 3. We moved down to NC, and I like their channel 3 but it doesn’t compare to Ohio. Like to read everything that’s going on! Miss seeing Holly and Betsy.

Yes! Good reading each morning.. We were one of the “lucky” customers of Direct TV who have now chosen to eliminate Channel 3. It has been over a week! I enjoy watching The Today Show each morning. The WKYC app is a wonderful fill-in. Thanks!

Disappointed. My least favorite of the local news apps. Too many Ads and stories are not as visible to want to read. While some parts of the app look impressive, the content is not. I usually find myself going to another local news source.

What happened?!. This used to be a wonderful app; however, it is now littered with numerous obnoxious ads. Why such a huge change?! Navigating and utilizing this app is now an unpleasant & frustrating experience. For this reason, we’ll be relying on another local network news app for news, information, updates and alerts.

Poor Videos. The app states to watch videos, but when I click play, the video starts then immediately is interrupted, a commercial starts, then the video I want to watch starts and plays for only a few seconds before stopping. It rarely shows anything meaningful, and then goes back to playing the commercial again.

Website. Too hard to find news on the main website. I liked the old format much better.

Akron a afterthought. You covered Akron news is terrible . When you post something it will stay up there for a week - 2 weeks depending if you get something big to replace it. Akron is more like a after thought to Cleveland news 1st . Just like Cleveland there are things happening in the Akron/Canton areas daily

Bogus Ads. News stories on WKYC 3 News are “littered” with come-on teaser ads which seem antithetical not only to the longstanding traditions of this station, but more so to their current slogan/mantra “what matters.” I realize that Tegna is a corporation in the business of making money, however it seems that their revenue stream from ads like “America’s number one gut doctor begs you to throw out this vegetable” and “casinos don’t want you to do this, but can’t stop you” are the fodder of investigative journalism that Channel 3 used to cover. Their app is very repetitive and only shows brief snippets of stories that they carry on their broadcasts. The stories tend to be old and aren’t updated.

Superior performance!!!. The best news app anyone, blind or sighted, could have as a residential clevelander. The news when you want, whereever you are. Even though it's primarily Northeast Ohio, Anyone can download and see national and local stories. Well, local to the Cleveland area. I love the app. The push notifications really helps us stay informed, and we get the information when we need it. There are a few unlabeled buttons, but I as a Voiceover user can prity much figure it out. Thanks. And Keep doin ' up the updates.

Update. Pictures only show the bottom half on the iPhone x. Stories repeat themselves. To me the same stories should not be on the latest new and national new same as entertainment and ET.

New App format clunky. I don’t usually mind updates and the changes that come with progress, but this new app is clunky and very hard to navigate. Scrolling down to the next article means scrolling past 3 ads every time! Also after reading a report or watching a video clicking the back arrow sends me all the way back to the top instead of where I left off meaning I have to keep scrolling down and clicking.

Why?. Your app is currently crap. I almost exclusively watch kyc at home and this app used to be good. It had easy to navigate categories for local, world, National, weather, radar, etc. Now I get an alert or headline that pushes to the phone and the app doesn’t link to the headline and brings up the useless kyc app home page. The homepage is some kind of infinite scroll so good luck trying to find something. I only have the app because kyc pushes decent headlines. Dial this app interface back a couple years please. I really do not understand why web developers and designers have to “modernize” a site so often. You had something that was effective. Stop trying to one up the person next to you and keep the site practical. Concentrate on app speeds or faster info push. If you have that then paint the background a different color or jump on the “dark mode” band wagon but please give the app more direct navigation.

Missing Page. I have always preferred WKYC for their school closing listing, but for this entire winter season this page has had an error saying, "This page is missing, but we have our best investigative reporters on it." I'm hoping these investigative reporters get to the bottom of this mystery and the page gets restored soon!

Channel News Team. We enjoy your up to date news and weather info and your sense of sincerity and sense of humor up to date sports also good ol local feeling great job guys that goes for the behind the scenes people too 👍😎

Wonderful news app. I’m glad for my WKYC news app. It gives me local news right in my hand. No need to turn on tv with two remotes and scroll to the channel when i need to know updated info.

App usually works good. The app usually works fine; occasionally it won't come up with pictures and it's just a script and I have to re-open it. Unfortunately WKY sea is leaning more and more left wing so I don't typically read their viewpoints anymore

Missing NEO. Recently moved to Texas from Cuyahoga Falls, this app allows me to keep up to date with everything that I consider important co ncerning my home state. This app makes me feel like I’m still part of NEO . This is a great tool that would not have been available not so many years ago. Great job. Very much appreciated. Warren Vaughn, Temple Texas

Not good. Hate the new app. I used the other app daily to track my long commute to work. I loved the real time maps and access to traffic cams so I knew what I was in for during my drive. Now it just links you to Waze! I already tried Waze and hated it! Why do I need in two places. Please put back the original traffic maps!!! Also, too many ads and not as easy as they say to navigate to what you want.

Awesome News 3 (WKYC). My husband & I enjoy watching WKYC for many reasons. All the on air personalities are the best! They present the news, sports, weather, health & other information in a professional manner. One of the qualities that I enjoy most is the true caring & mutual respect they have for one another. Indeed, they seem like my “friends”.

Weather. Without question, WKYC offers the most accurate forecast of all local stations. Furthermore, it is done in a scientific, calm manner. Other local stations go for high drama and fear and lose accuracy in the process.

My go to for local news. I have breaking news turned on and get updates when something happens. Love this app! Use it for local news. It has been great at tracking the COVID numbers also.

Live AM news. Like being able to watch the news in the morning on my phone.

Could be better. Slow update! You duplicate articles in the same display, that is so annoying.

Good coverage. Up to date news - early alert system for amber alerts , missing people and children and weather. Stays focused with current and past events .

Love WKYC 3. I check in every day from Smithfield Ohio. I am a proud Browns season ticket holder since 1978 that goes to every game every season. I love your sports, weather and your site in general.

Informational. I love using the app. I don’t watch the news. When I need to catch up on what’s going on in the world, I go to the app and everything I need is at my fingertips.

Keeps you informed. Very reliable. Keeps me informed on issues I am interested in. Highly recommend this APP.

Excellent source for breaking news. I really like getting notifications of breaking news stories

WKYC is Awesome!. We wake up with this station every morning! The most accurate in news and weather. Keep up the great work! The people make me smile everyday.

No weekend news!,,,, can't watch live on new app. Use to be decent. Now it play weather on live broadcast. Please fix it. It would be nice to watch the weekend news in the morning, evening and night. Why can’t this be? I like this channel except for thisb

WKYC losing long time fans!. You MUST get NBC back on Uverse! None of the other stations compare with channel 3. This deal is totally unfair to the consumer. They constantly raise fees but do NOTHING to better the service!! LETS GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSES AND LIVE WITH WHAT YOU GET!!!

App crashes on live video.. Aside from the app not being very refined and clumsy, the main issue is the crash associated with live video feeds. With the corona virus global paralysis we are now faced with a reliance on the news networks to keep us informed and educated. When the live feeds are available and you activate the sound (extremely important) the app crashes every single time. It happens to my phone along with others, so clearly there is a bug to be fixed. So please fix this very important issue.

Home town ALWAYS!. I moved away and still hope to return. I have watched this News Station nearly all my 55 years in CLE! I hope to see the local news each night. Sometimes it is not on especially on the weekends. I miss you all so much!! Keep on sending out this Station on the app. I love to keep up with my home town. Ever since I began at BWU in 1962! Eileen Spicer

Raffy. A lot of commercials and everytime my signal gets lost I have to start the app over and go through the whole process of commercials again tending me to not see the weather before I go to work at 5 am.

WKYC Channel #3. Generally this is a great local station for News & entertainment programs if it’s maintained as really Now needed for our local & National TV programs. Thanks please workout conflicts with our current AT&T U-verse before it becomes unavailable to us. RL

Nice app to keep current. Although I now live in Florida, I’m always checking the weather, team standings, new restaurants, general news, etc. Cleveland will always be a part of me.

Review. The only thing that is annoying is when I pick a story to read and want to back where I left off it takes you to the top of the stories instead of where I left off. ANNOYING!

Love WKYC. I’m originally from NE Ohio and have moved with my husband 8 times across the country, 4 states. We now reside in St Augustine, FL and still watch WKYC 11pm news every night. We have been doing this since our first move.

Too much. Too many ads that jump into what I’m trying to read. Too busy and confusing.

Awful, flippy, fiddly interface. The app has so munch ad content it won’t sit still, constantly jerking up and down. Navigation is unclear with a mishmash of video and text and repeated elements. Every Tegna station has the same app, so it’s a kit, but the WKYC version looks terrible. KING in Seattle uses the same tool and it looks great. Time to delete this again.

Best News Chanel in Cleveland.. I watch you from The morning show to the evening show. I can depend on getting the truth always. Thank you Everyone

No problems here; knock on wood. I’ve not had any problems with this app thus far. As I have MS/Multiple Sclerois. I often fall asleep during the news, etc but I stay up to date with the use of this app. I live in Lake county whereas my family live in Cuyahoga and Lorain counties so this helps me quite a bit with local, worldwide and news specific to where my adult children live! For my purpose I rated it “5” stars.

Live stream. Understand you can’t live stream during 5am hour. Would be nice if you could. Or perhaps maybe a behind the scenes live stream during that hour could be interesting. Other than that WKYC is doing an outstanding job in their morning program.

Let me pay for no ads. The app is fine. I use it for local news alerts and weather. But the ads on here are large, poorly integrated into the experience, and long. A 30 second ad to watch a 30 second clip. Come one. Let me give you money to make this garage go away.

3 news next, but not here (on the app). EDITED: This app has a live stream function which is often nonfunctional. The live stream is unavailable when a newscast is delayed, and is oftentimes inaccessible for regularly scheduled broadcasts. Often news live stream unavailable when the president has one of his covid 19 briefings is on. If a live stream is available, it is almost difficult to access, almost as though TEGNA, WKYC’s parent company, doesn’t want you to watch a live stream of their newscasts. Additionally, live stream pixelates and live audio stutters making newscast unwatchable and unlistenable.

A suggestion. I really like to read news from Cleveland, but I do wish I could stop receiving alerts about high school sports or any of the professional sports teams. I have the alerts turned off for sports and I still get notifications about games or scores. I really don’t care about this and wish that this wasn’t sent as a notification as “top stories”.

Live Newscast. Can someone please explain to me why I cannot catch the beginning of the newscast? For example at 6pm I miss the first 2 minutes because the live video isn’t available for that time. So I guess I just have to missed the top story each day 🤷‍♀️

Up to date. Well informed via this app.

Bring back the old app. Hate the new WKYC app. So much of what was there is gone. No ability to look at news by area. The Indians section used to show the schedule, the standings, the current major league scoreboard - now there’s none if that. WKYC’s app now looks like the generic NBC apps across the country - lousy. Bring back the old app!

Difficult. Difficult to navigate. What happened to all the news categories on the old app? I miss being able to sort news from my local area.

Review. This is a great App and enjoy it, a short cut to the news on tv

Live. I can no longer get receive live streaming of the morning show on my phone! I’ve tried everything, but still can’t get it!

The station is very informative. I love the sports reviews

WKYC. Excellent news. Up to the minute information. Best App I have!

Great weather team. Best news and weather in area.

Terrible update. I’m deleting this app and finding a different one. This went from a streamlined, easy to use experience to a flashy, annoying one. I don’t have time to waste on this.

WKYC. Always keeps me good company when I’m in the car - and when I’m at home👏. Debby Elliott

Content not updated enough. They leave stories up for long periods of time and don't update towards the bottom when scrolling. Tired of seeing the same stories for months.

Great news & everything. Favorite channel

Simply the best. Best 6:00 and 11:00 news team there has been in my 45 years of living in Cleveland. Can’t wait to watch every day. Love it, Love it, love it !!!.

Best Local Source. This app has been my best source of information during the ongoing COVID-19 outbreak. Thanks for keeping us informed.

Concise reporting. Great relevant with latest news that are concise and clear!

Channel 3 app.. I like the app. It gives me current news and weather.

Away from Cleveland. Thanks, WKYC!. You keep me up to date in the CLE!!

Out of town. The only way I keep up with my news in Cleveland, is on the Internet and WKYC. From Duluth Minnesota, Rick Voigt

News. Too many stories that are fluff feel good pieces and not much of real news. Only turn on channel 3 for weather and sports. They are the best. Have to watch another channel for news.

Latest Update Stinks. This news app used to be good. The app is too graphic oriented and has barely any substance. You may as well just delete the app and read your news from their website because the app barely contains any news. Worst news app, ever. Whoever redesigned this app should be smacked hard.

New version crashes on my iphone. I have an old phone - 6. With os 12. This latest upgrade wouldn’t open on my phone. No start up window.

Channel three news .. Up to date news ,

Better performance than older versions. Much better than previous versions. Loads quicker, and easier to navigate than before

New in front of the camera. Really enjoying the addition of Stephanie. She’s bright, beautiful and is just a lovely person

Deleted. Like many arrogant app developers, I was forced to upgrade. Unfortunately they seem to think a flashy, data-hogging format with difficult navigation is better some how than a sleek, easy to use app. I deleted it. Cleveland’s other news providers have keep their simple, user-friendly formats.

Alerts are great. I like to get the alerts so I can know the latest news on what orders and guidelines have been issued

News I need never here. I check traffic daily before commuting. Never find what I need here even in the midst of major traffic snafus which are being reported on by other stations/apps. (Example: two days of ODOT problems with contractor not removing barrels timely to open lanes which caused 90 minute delay to work.). Deleted this app and moved on.

Review. Pretty accurate weather forecasts but not enough breaking news.

WKYC NEWS. I know that I can get unbiased, honest news coverage from people who really care about what is important to REAL people!!!

Thank the president for what he did do. You have lost me as a viewer. Look at the good trump has done Give him the respect of a sitting president

The today show. Terrible terrible time that we’re through It’s very uplifting!!! Watching the show..

Morning Show. I have not been able to watch the morning show from 5 am - 6 am for several weeks on my iPad - I will now be watching another local station that is available that way - I have several options

The best!. The informal interaction between Betsy, Jimmy, and Russ is genuine! Being a psychologist, the deliver news and are entertainment.

Stop making African Americans and their feelings news. Too much reporting on African Americans and how they feel cops are always wrong. Coverage on Jayland Walker was way too repetitive! Abortion and womens’ rights should have been covered more then that!!!

WKYC. I have no problems with this app I only would like to see more news from Akron area as we live in Cuyahoga Falls.

Love Channel 3. I can’t always watch Channel 3 on TV because the pixels keep breaking up the screen. I can always catch the news and weather on my Channel 3 app. Love it, love it, love it! MJ Neel Brunswick Ohio

Keeping in Focus. This is a Wonderful App, it keeps me Aware to up to the minute News.

Always “in the loop” with this app. Really appreciate this app...even when I’m out of town, I am in the know with what’s happening — and IMPORTANT — at home in Cleveland!

Not always up to date. Lots of times I get news from other sources before I see them here. Seems on weekends they do not update the app and website at all.

I like getting some of the news. They could beef it up with more actual news in this area. Seems VERY slanted to sports.

Ads Ruin The Ap. Click on a video news story and see the same Ad over and over. Then the news story doesn’t even play. 2 Thumbs down.

Great opening. Terrible after that.. The imagery is great at the start. When I get to the news, I scroll down and something, ads or other text, forces the scroll back up. This is impossible to get a good news experience from.

Best News App Ever. Highly informative Best news app hands down Very objective news agency

Front Row. I loved the Friday Jan 17 show at 7pm. The chemistry between Mike Polk, Sara, and Betsy was great. They were so relaxed, being themselves, and being honest and natural in their answers. It made me laugh. Made by Friday nite.

Newspaper. nice app very friendly for older people.

Love your news. Wish I could watch you on tv but we have Dish network. Please settle the dispute quickly I miss seeing the best news in Cleveland!!

Good, but annoying ads. I think we could do without the ads that pretend to be news stories. Very irritating!

First!. I ALWAYS receive breaking news from WKYC FIRST over any other source! I Depend on them!

News. Weather. Excellent reporting Comforting weather accuracy reports
