Video format👎
The new video format fills up the screen not allowing me to read anything, with the exception of maybe 2 sentences I liked it better when I had the option to read the story instead of watching the video…app deleted!
New ad format super annoying.
Hate the new ad format. Am deleting the app.
New update
After your new update, everything is in huge print. Cannot find a way to get the text back to normal size
Can’t load “\(‘-‘)/“
Can’t download it. Very awkward. To bad because I liked watching you news.
Fox Eight app
I am having problems with the Fox Eight app. It’s not letting me do anything it’s just a frozen screen to continue. How do I fix that? I updated my phone.
App continues to get worse
The “watch live” option is gone. News stories don’t match the headline.
Bait and switch stories and too many ads
They send push notifications that aren’t linked to the actual story. If you want to watch the video attached you have to watch an ad each time, some ads are longer than the video you watch. Grew tired of the app overall so it’s time to try a different news stations app for awhile.
We've fixed some bugs and improved general performance.
