Bugs..... Crashes a lot, and when trying to download it just wouldn't download, had to keep trying multiple times.

Just show me the news!!. Every time I have open this app. I have to watch commercial after commercial. It will not let me skip through the commercials. It shows the same commercial over and over. I’m done. All I wanted to do was see the local news.

New update terrible!. Please go back to previous version! This new update is terrible, not user friendly and gives me very little news!

Wanted: A News Outlet Overseen by Someone Over 30. So, after having had enough of Fox 19s silliness, I deleted their app. Knowing the local NBC and ABC affiliates were equally as clownish as the aforementioned, I reached for Local12. I don’t know about you, but I, for one, have absolutely had it with anything related to COVID. Anyway, I installed 12s app. hoping something fresh and, dare I say, uplifting would catch my eye. But no, I was let down yet again; the top story was all about new cases in Ohio. Are there any adults in the room? Obviously not.

App runs fast and great. Get to everything much faster!

Crashing. Since the last update on this app, it has not worked. Every time in click on Top Stories, it starts flickering and when I click on a news story, the app closes.

Ads. Why there need to be 2 ads in a 5 sentence article is beyond me.

Kyle Inskeep. So glad Kyle is back. I was really worried he wouldn’t return. Happy homecoming Kyle !

Why. The replacement of the previous app is this? There really isn't any presentation or wow factor to it now. I liked your previous one you offered instead. At least the news stream is back. That gets a star. I'm sorry Local 12.

Horrible. The first time I ran it, it showed me a gray screen so I had to force quit the app. Second-time it worked, looks ugly. Then clicked on top stories. There's no way to get back to the main menu! No settings for the app. Ad space that's blank. This app was not ready yet and is a huge step backwards!

Ok to Awful. It wasn't great before but this new all video/audio version is the pits. I get that this is a TV news app but forcing users to watch video or listen to audio to get the news isn't always convenient or even preferred. Deleted it and will rely on the other Cincy stations.

Notifications and General Design. The notifications I receive are good; however, when you click on it, the app opens to the page where all stories are displayed. Using my iPhone 5, I should have the ability to simply click on the news alert (push notification) and it simply redirects me to that story - not provide me with a list of all current articles. Also, please fix the general design. It seems cheap and it's not very user friendly. On a positive note: I absolutely love Local 12 and watch it daily. I guess I will continue to use WCPO's app.

Crashes. Just downloaded this app and cannot even use it. It crashes before it ever gets off of the opening page. Guess I will go back to the wcpo app.

Notifications never work. I use this app often and appreciate the news articles it contains. But - the developer should know that the notifications NEVER work. If I see a story as a notification and swipe to read it, it NEVER opens that story.

Garbage. This app is garbage. Half the time the so won't open. I get notifications on updates and it freezes or the app doesn't respond and they remove articles before you get a chance to read it. Either their info is false or misleading to drag you in to them. Complete unsatisfactory garbage

App is generic, too many better ones. This app is way too generic and you don't post about things that are on tv. I was with my adult kids and grandkids at the Webn fireworks, almost got trampled from the shooting and there is nothing about it on the app. If it's there I can't find it! Get it together with this app! I use the better news apps now

Lives in a VERTICAL universe 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻. Decent local news but only allows vertical view. REALLY ☠️ Does your app programmer drive a Ford Pinto and use a rotary phone. Wake up, Apple rotates why aren’t you smart enough to realize MOST people use the features they have.

UPDATED April 3, 2022——-Still only vertical view…... Downloaded app once again hoping that it had been updated to include an horizontal view option that I prefer (as all your competitors’ apps offer)…..NOPE- deleted.

Wkrc local Q12. This does not work on my iPad. Have tried several options and cannot get it to work. The weather app worked for awhile, now it doesn't work. Still doesn't work. Want am I doing wrong

Too Irritating To Use. Lately this app has become unusable on my iPad because every time a story is opened most of the content is squeezed out by an ad video, requiring you to scroll up and down to read the actual content. Other local TV news apps are more user-friendly. Ugh.

Love it when it works. I love this app but recently it won't load when I try to open it :(

Expected more from #1 news station. Absolutely horrible app. Not sure how this got through development. I expected a lot more from the #1 local news station.

Great, but a tip of advice.... Maybe in winter they could send school and business closing notifications every time there is a new one. Beats going into the app and look for yourself. Hope the WKRC-TV station hears this if they are the ones who make these updates. Consider this idea ;)

A Joke!. I expect this layout was suggested by the CEO's high school child who has never been told No. I can over look this to get a news story I'm interested in. So, a few days ago I click a video. The ad pops up first(someone has to pay for the lights). The ad has a timer set for :15, this is what burns my chaps. Everyone in the known world expects 15 sec until the story starts. Try one maybe a minute. I surely didn't count. In today's world you delete and try elsewhere. Bye channel 12!

It’s not local news anymore. I’ve enjoyed watching the local channel 12 news for a long time and within the last several weeks it no longer plays local news only national news. I tried erasing it and re-download in the app it says it will place local news but in fact it does not. Very saddened by this because I like the personalities of the newscasters

Not great. For crying out loud, update the Local News and Nation & World feeds! They haven’t changed in 2 weeks. They only update Sports and Entertainment. I’m going to check out some other apps.

Much Better than WLWT's. At least the page will rotate.

Frustrated!. Every time I try to open the app on my iPhone 5C it ends the whole app! Can't read any stories or anything. Does not work what so ever! Might just delete it and go with another news channel

Why did you change it!. Why did you change a good thing?! Before you upgraded your app, it was my "go to" app for local weather and school closings. Now I can't find what I need so I will be using a different local channel!

Current update broken. Most recent update is broken. There is no text in any of the news stories. Please push out a fix.

Terrible. The app update is stuck in the system and won't even go through. I have all the local news apps and channel 12's is by far the worst. Guess I'll stick to channel 9 until "local 12" figures out how to care about something other than television newscasts.

Great, if you like repeating ads. Ads repeat. Every time. Do you think we’re not paying attention and need/want to see the same ad twice in a row? And do this every afternoon break? Not making me want to support your sponsors, or keep your app.

No news.. I cannot seem to get the app updated, after several attempts.

Apperal. Shelia, take your coworkers lead and put some clothes on. It’s winter and you look like a fool.

Great Job. I really like how quickly the stories load and the ability to navigate throughout the site!! Keep up the great work!

App doesn't work. Not only do notifications not open to the story, there are no stories or anything that opens on any tab other than traffic. Useless!

Cammi "li'l Miss Empathy" and buggy new versions=buh-bye. Loved the anchors of Rob, Kit and Tim. I get cavities every time Cammi goes, "aww..." Tired of waiting for Liz to push her out. Streaming hasn't worked consistently for at least six months. Can't follow a notification if it's more than 6-8 hours old. 26Mb of wasted memory reclaimed.

Crashes. I too have been having the flickering screen then the app crashes. Would think there would have been a fix by now as it's been several days.

Keeps crashing. As of the current update, the screen flickers when I open the app and the crashes when I attempt to open a story

Decent app- weather video does not work. Disappointed to see the weather "watch" button is still playing a weather video from Thanksgiving even with the new update. Hoping it's fixed soon!

this app only works in vertical position :-(. App only works in the vertical position?! why??!?! ! I will be deleting this horrible app that only works in a vertical position again. I keep checking in every few months to see if the app has been updated so I can finally enjoy it (because local 12 is my favorite news station), but every time I open this app...it still will NOT work in the horizontal view! This is very frustrating since in order to enjoy using this app it needs to sit in my tablet holder in the HORIZONTAL (LANDSCAPE) POSITION! :-( PLEASE UPDATE THIS APP TO WORK IN THE LANDSCAPE HORIZONTAL POSITION!

Deleted App Due to Ads/Surveys. Runs too slow and had ads or surveys after every other news stories. I finally deleted the app and added another local news channel’s app.

Cast option?. Layout is confusing, and not user friendly. No option to cast to TV. Deleted app.

Anonymous. Not a bad app in terms of layout and content, but there isn’t any audio with the videos!

Like the app, but it’s got a (recent) flaw. I like the app and find it useful to skim the headlines. The number of ads with a story can be annoying. The flaw is that the entertainment section of the newsfeed hasn’t updated in over 2 weeks.

Yuck!. Worst news app ever. Not user friendly. Hard to navigate. The local stories are all videos and I don't want to use up data. I'd much rather read them. Plus, tomorrow there will be a major snow storm here and there isn't one word about it. Not even a video...

Buggy app. This is the buggiest app I have. It regularly crashes before I can open a story to read it. Bring back the old app! The new and improved version is terrible.

Why don’t my local 12 app doesn’t work. I did have local 12 news app but for some reason it doesn’t work anymore and I want to know why. I liked getting on the app and check it out

Won't even open!. I just downloaded this app & it crashes immediately after opening! I was so excited to not have to use another station's app anymore because it truly sucked! Please fix!

Love the app. HATE the Stirr commercial!. Please please please change or better still delete the Stirr commercial Much too repetitive. Been the same for over several years. I would give this a 4 star without this commercial.

Uses too much battery. The last update uses WAY TOO MUCH battery life! I have quit using it until an update is released to fix this.

Big fixes????. Was working perfectly, now won't update or work. Thanks for making the app worse

Keeps crashing! 5/26. Keeps crashing. Screen jumps around and the app closes.

Not working. Nothing will download, nothing plays. Tried uninstalling app, app will not reload at all.

8-5-16 ver. The last version hangs on download. iPad 6 pro.

Another update as of 6-6-14. Another Update & the App still doesn't work! " imagine that ".

Terribly disappointing.. Crashes all the time. Other local news apps are better.

Rotae. The new update will not install

I'm going to wlwt app. Has to be the worst app in history. So unorganized and confusing. Bring back the old app or I'm switching to channel 5's app.

Notsogood. Can someone tell me how to give an app negative stars.

Was not the app for me 😝. Was by the app for me. I normally use wlwt but because they upgraded and ruined their app, I'm looking for anther. I'm having similar issues with wkrc. On to the next 😒

Not good. This app is probably the worst ever. News feeds have trouble loading and live streaming works maybe 1% of the time.

Wkrc local 12. Can not download new bug fix

Worst ever!!!. After update, flickers all the time and than crashes! Nice update!!!!

Just as bad as the wcpo app. The navigation is terrible with this app! A redesign is very much needed.

Will not work!!!!. You guys need to fix it!!!!!

Won't open. The app won't open on my I pad. What good is that?

Terrible app!. Channel should take a look at Ch 9 and Ch 5 apps. They are excellent, while Ch 12's app isn't even in the same category. Looks like someone with very little technical know how created it.

Opened it, Then Deleted it!. Portrait orientation only!

A mother. Fix the bugs that are keeping me from updating????🐶💕💕

Crashes. Every time you try to open it crashes. Please fix!!

Won't even open. Horrible update

Errr. If the app won't update I should be able to at least delete it.

Crashes since last update. Please fix this!

No sound. How do I get sound on my local 12 WKRC news app?

Disappointed. Can’t find live news. Getting ready to cancel.

Anonymous. Not a bad app in terms of layout and content, but there isn’t any audio with the videos!

Crashes. Crashes every time I try to open a story after most recent update. Does not work at all.

Unbelievably terrible. What an absolutely terrible app. I only gave it 1 star because I had to.

No sound on live broadcast with iPhone app. Disappointing

Unstable App. Crashes a lot. Poor replacement for previous version.

Junk ap. Ap used to work and now is useless.

Update. Unable to load the latest update. It looks like it trying but never finishes.

Bad APP. News articles are way to old out dated. Too much ads not enough updated news

Good. Works good for me!!!!!!

Ch 12. Too old fashion,need new blood, need high wattage - can’t watch even in Hamilton Co. at Snider Rd and Field-Ertel area! We have better reception of Ch 7 from Dayton! StanWang

Terrible. Terrible news app

Worst App EVER!!. Why was this app replaced?? It is beyond horrible!! Crashes constantly, never loads ever! Bring back the old app!!

Disappointed. Very hard to find things that I wanted to see. Deleted.

Poor app. Out of channel 5, 9, 19 and 12's apps, yours is the worst. Get rid of the ads in the news stories. Post more news and separate them by date.

Wkrc. Still can't down load the app. What went wrong, it all started with an update. Not good!

Crashes. Latest app update now causes app to consistently crash :(

Worst app ever. HATE IT. The old app was so much better.

do'nt like. I personally don't like it

Update has made app non working. Tried updating app and it keeps saying retry. Wanted to redo app and will not work at all. Can't even get it off the phone period.

Worst local news app. Crashes every time

Useless. Update won't download. About ready to delete this POS.

Can't even download the update. Update released today won't even download please fix the "BUGS" that are said to be fixed

Does not rotate. Layout is ok but the app does not rotate when device is turned sideways

Don't bother. As poor as the last version was, this one is worse.
