The WSLS 10 team covers stories and news that matter to you in Roanoke, Lynchburg, the New River Valley, Blacksburg, Martinsville, Southside, Botetourt, Danville and the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Information
Why does the information in the app not update? I see articles from Jan in Dec but nothing much in Dec. the insider is basically about getting to know the news crew. That’s great but why be an insider? There’s supposed to be perks.
Incomplete Development
Not in sync with Notifications. Notifications on IPhone screen are individually selected and often there is no news representing that notification to be found. News subjects that are of individual interest often cannot be located. Also a screen about streaming and sky cams takes over the screen and requires closing just to get to news. Communication with digital help more than once has not produced a resolution or even an offer of a looking into a resolution even after viewing screenshots. WSLS News 10 and its staff are a good news team so the development of a new app should represent its striving for excellence.
Where’d the widget go???
The last update removed the widget. Why?!?!! It was great because I could see three of the top stories at a glance, without having to open the app unless it was something I wanted to read or watch. The widget was actually why I used the WSLS app for my day to day news and with this change it’s not better than any of the other local news apps. Now it’s gone and instead I get annoying notifications instead. All. Day. Long. And when I click on one it ALWAYS takes me to the wrong story. This HUGE change has rendered the app useless for me. Time to change local news apps.
Horrible Notifications
What is the point of sending notifications when the link takes you to a completely different story than that which was advertised in the notification. I click the notification which sends me to the video news website. I click play and get two adds then a story unrelated to the notification. I have to back out of that to get to the episode that has nothing to do with the story advertised in the notification. I have yet to see any of the stories in the notifications that I was interested in since I downloaded the app in October. My guess is your app developer is impotent to meet the news service needs.

Best news crew in the valley!
Ads ruined it
Was a great app. Recently, loud and annoying full screen unskippable ads when opening the app. Removed it for now. Fine if you can deal with that I suppose, has all the headlines.

The “live” feature never works on this app, which is what I downloaded it for.
