Very glitchy! The ads when playing live stream are annoying, especially when it freezes and you have to restart the feed. Sometimes, the live feed gets stuck on a loop and replays 2-3 times before it continues playing. I'd suggest that the volume play automatically when the live feed starts, after the ads. There's no reason to press the volume option again after the ad unless it's to mute the feed. The app is good for weather updates and quick reads on local stories.

When this app works its great to check local weather and traffic. It provides the best information. However, you are forced to watch a 30 second ad, if the content you want doesn't stream and you click the play button, you are forced to watch another 30 second ad. For sone reason, there are times when You can't even get weather & traffic because there is a varsity program on. Please move that off your traffic and weather reports, it doesn't belong on a traffic and weather report channel.

I hadn't watched live feed for over a year because it hadn't been displaying properly for a long time and through several updates. I just noticed that that issue has been fixed, but now my screen times out and the video stops after several seconds. The only way to keep it playing is to tap the screen constantly. At least one other comment references this issue. Please fix. Thanks.

This is good for information when you need it such as on 9/1 with the crazy weather we had... BUT there is no way to control what kind of notifications you get. If you have notifications enabled you get push notifications for EVERYTHING. So, if you just want notifications about the weather and it's impacts during a major storm, turn on notifications. Otherwise keep it off or you'll be bombarded.

I like having local news available on my phone, but the app itself needs work, and the advertising is just ridiculous. If you want to watch a live stream, you have to watch an ad first, on top of all the ads already in the live broadcast. Then to top it off, the full screen option doesnt actually make the stream full screen, the picture is cut off, to make room for yet another advertisement.

For some reason it looks like News 12 stopped traffic reports. I haven't seen them anywhere on TV or on the app. Those used to be invaluable because where I live, surrounded by bigger cities, all the traffic reports are about those cities and not about where us locals need to go. This is great to have all the hyper-local weather and information. Believe it or not this information is very hard to find anywhere else.
