The WSET ABC 131 News app delivers news, weather and sports in an instant. With the new and fully redesigned app you can watch live newscasts, get up-to-the minute local and national news, weather and traffic conditions and stay informed via notifications alerting you to breaking news and local events. • Breaking news alerts and stories • Live streaming • Weather section with hourly and daily forecasts • Live weather radar and traffic information
No dates for suggested stories
If you read to the end of an article it suggests other stories, however they are usually weeks old. This is especially annoying in winter when it announces an approaching snowstorm followed by the coldest temperatures of the season. After checking the weather, I realized the story must have been from last month, however there’s no date showing when it was reported. This problem seems to be consistent for Sinclair stations, such as WJlA-7 in DC.
Hourly temps returned
The news app is okay. It is rarely updated on weekends, but does give some local news the rest of the time. On the weather portion, Hourly temps are returned but they do not go as far in the future as they did. I will continue to use this app . I use the weather portion almost everyday. We liked the hourly feature where you could see temperatures for each hour of the day. This feature is now not as extended and useful. Updates always make it worse. Just a note: i really dont want to have to load an additional app for the weather. That seems ridiculous and just crowds my phone. So no to that. I will use a competitors news and weather app before i do that.

We liked the hourly feature where you could see temperatures for each hour of the day. This feature is now gone. Sadly, ruined by another awful update.

Can’t get to iPad version
Can only get iPhone layout format only. This app is not user friendly at all. Oh well, welcome your competition for thr area. Wish you would stay current.

Useless for live news
I’ve not been able to see the live broadcast in a long time. I used to use it every day last year or more, but last fall it started freezing all the time so I quit using it and watching WDBJ, but I live in Lynchburg and would prefer to watch local news. Tried watching the past week or two and it would never load and play, it kept giving error messages. Please fix this.
Thanks for watching and downloading our app. This update fixes some bugs and adds performance improvements!
