Horrible data resource hog
WPSDLOCAL 6 Tech Bros: a) do you realize what a bandwidth hog this app is? And b) do you realize when the power goes out so does Wi-Fi?
Rendering this app useless on data during extreme weather events.
How about a lower bandwidth audio only stream like we had before we had to switch from analog TV to digital?

Good to bad to worse
I used to use this app a whole lot and now it’s just a bunch of lag from the ads constantly reloading and putting new ones in over and over again.
Now I just use the web version instead on a browser and it’s way better

No Live
You are unable to watch live weather when there are tornado warnings. You also are not able to just immediately start watching you have to watch commercials before you can watch anything. So if it’s an emergency, you’re out of luck. I recommend the KFVS 12 app instead.

PLEASE FIX THIS!
Ever since doing the latest update this app is worthless for me. Push alerts are current but when I open it, I get a prompt stating “Your Request Cannot Be Processed At This Time. Content Not Available” The exact same thing is happening when trying to read a story inside the app. I can see the main page but am unable to read any if the stories.

App is broken since Apple updated their OS in Sept 2020
I have had no news update on this app since The just iPad update in September 2020 I believe it was. I’ve reported it to WPSD with no resolution. States there is no data available. I uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. Can this be fixed? I miss the news casts at times and this is how I keep up.

News stories
I open up the App, but when I tap on a news story, the app can’t load the story and says my request can’t be processed at this time. I’m hoping this can be resolved soon so I can continue to use the app.

Solicitation
Clicked for push notifications for breaking news, now getting daily notifications for solicitation and drawings, sometimes more than once daily. NOT breaking news!

Ads in push notifications!!!
Just deleted this off my phone! I gave you access to send me push notifications for news updates, not to send me advertising about the St. Jude Dream home. I’d expect nothing less from a shady news station than to send out shady ads dressed up as news alerts.

Skewed, politically motivated reporting
WPSD is not a reliable news source.

Great App!
This is the best way to keep up with the latest and experienced news team in the regions. As they always say, put on those push alerts!

Horrible!
I had to delete the app before I could get the Weather on the 6’s to stop. It was driving me NUTS! There was no way to shut it off. This new update is awful. Like the old saying, if it’s not broken, don’t fix it! I downloaded again to write my review. I just wish you would have left well enough alone! 😩😩😩😩

Update on Aug 17, 2019
Previously this app was not updating itself and had news from August 7 day after day, but a recent update seems to have fixed this problem. Hopefully, there will be no further problems as I depend on this app for my local news and weather.

Good basic app
This is a good basic app. I usually miss the news on tv so I catch up with this. Unfortunately the last entire week shows the same stories. Nothing has changed? Not sure what the problem is, but I know things have happened that should show up. Hopefully the developers will fix this issue.

Easy App
Very straightforward app, that quickly gets you to the local news info I needed. Thanks for keeping it simple, yet offering a robust app!

Updated with improvements
There are several updates to the interface of the app. There is now just the one definitive version - this one. I encourage those who had an issue with previous versions check it out and re-evaluate it. And if you still have issues, let them know here - they say they will work on it.

Doesn't allow you to view news stories once the app is actually opened. Not sure why they updated it to something that doesn't even work. Switching to WestKY Star.

Horrible
This is typical form, my previous version worked well and was easy to navigate but let's not leave well enough alone. Let's take something that works away and release a version that does NOT work. This latest version absolutely stinks.
