Reviews

  • Slow and clunky

    The app is just slow all the time. All the ads will load quickly, but the news text itself will take forever to load.

  • Um 😕

    It’s ok, but searching is prohibitively difficult- a search for “togo cocktail bill” couldn’t find a story called “to-go cocktails will stick around” also the livestream looks for wifi unsuccessfully even though the rest of the app is functioning on lte/5g, but worst of all the app shuts off if I navigate away and loses where I was. Whoever idea THAT was is just adding to perception that all media companies are eyeball greedy to the exclusion of any concern for user experience. What could be a help is just another “improvement” that screws the loyal viewers- NO THANKS

  • Apple TV no longer supported

    The app will download and install on my Apple TV, but all it does is put up a screen declaring Apple TV is no longer supported. You can purchase a Roku, or pay for Peacock. Or, in my case, Bye Bye NBC!

  • Fantastic

    Like most I’m going out of my way to review. Don’t know how and kinda don’t care but the app is very consistent with weather alerts, especially for rain, news alerts and general alerts. Have had no negatives with app.

  • No more Apple TV

    I don’t know why they thought of not being compatible with Apple TV! Every morning and evening I always watch my news on there, because of how simple it is to use the app and get my daily information, super sad. I really hope this gets fixed soon. In the meanwhile I’ll see what other app to use to watch it on.

  • Lacks Apple TV support

    This app is nearly perfect on iOS and iPadOS. But the tvOS app always lacked push notifications. And it didn’t support the Up Next row. Support for the app has been dropped on Apple TV. Only way to watch NBC Bay Area content now on Apple TV is via YouTube or the main NBC app.

  • Hard to remove pop ads from the app

    Very hard to remove ads from the app if you accidentally press on them. There is no obvious “x” to close like on other apps.

  • Night mode please

    Are all these news apps white backgrounds because they think they need to simulate a newspaper? KPBS does it best, easy on the eyes.

  • Best weather reference & more

    I have some reason to open this app every day. If not for temps and weather for anywhere, local and national news.

  • Bad design

    I am subtracting two stars. Both for annoying navigation problems. When I open the app to see a weather alert, I can never exit out of the weather page. There is no easy link back to the home page. That’s an app 101 first rule of design. Easy navigation. The app also tends to not navigate to the alert when I click the alert and see the article. Instead, it puts me to the main article rather than the alert. The problem here is, the behavior never acknowledges the alert has been seen, making the number of alerts seen on the icon pointless.
