CBS 21 News

Endless ads.... Unwatchable... deleted.

**UPDATE June 27,2024** After many updates since my original problem report which is listed below, it has still not been fixed. Now there is a new problem as of about two updates ago. When looking at the article list, and the word UPDATED appears in orange to the right of the picture, AND the text to the right is more than 3 lines, the right edge of each line is cut off, typically losing one word. I also noticed that this app was taking up 1.05GB of space on my iPhone. Uninstalling and reinstalling brought the size down to a respectable 135MB. It seems odd that the Documents & Data was able to climb to 900MB. I hope these issues can be fixed. I don’t see a way to contact the Sinclair developer so you’re getting it on here from me. Thank you. —————————————————————— ***Original problem from 10/24/23**** This is by-far my favorite news app. I’ve been using it for a few years. The layout, captions, font sizes are great and I can’t remember any crashes. The one problem that continues to occur, and this happened on my iPhone X and now on my iPhone 11 is that as you slowly scroll down to view the main article headings, as soon as it gets to where the ads (between articles) appear, it makes the page jump and the story headline that I was viewing is now at the top of the screen, barely visible. iOS is always kept up to date, currently on 17.0.3. Got the latest app update today - 10/24/23 and this issue still occurs. Thank you. UPDATE on 12/18/23 There have been 6 app version updates since I reported this on 10/24/23, but the issue that I am having still continues. I am currently on IOS 17.2. I hope the developers can figure this out, it’s fairly annoying. Thank you.

I have several news channels on my pad and have sound for all except CBS21 news app...I have gone into settings..I have tapped on everything I can tap..I even deleted and reinstalled app several times...very disappointed as I would probable delete the other news apps if this one would work.

Is there any way to switch the app from portrait mode to landscape? I use the app on my iPad fitted with a keyboard, so it is in constant landscape mode. Every time I use the app, I have to physically turn the iPad and end up with a dangling keyboard. Not very handy.

The app was revamped and now when you click on a notification, it doesn't take you to the article. Now there are WAY too many notifications. I received 4 within a 20 minute period and none of them were breaking news, just telling me to tune in. I'm deleting this again.

When connected to a large monitor or TV it would be good if you could make the bar across the top which contains the "Done" button disappear when in full screen mode.

On the new release, when I select an Alert, the APP opens up, and selects the article title, but none of the articles will open so they can be read. Very annoying, because I cannot locate the article to actually read it. Please fix. I have a iPhone 6 Plus with iOS 10.2.

It takes this app too long to load. I can open news 8, 27 and fox 43 much much faster. It's not worth the wait.

I have deleted and reinstalled twice. Does not work.

Once upon a time, I had a news app that was dependable and easy to use. Now I have to dig through advertising to scroll the news headlines. Time to uninstall and download a different news app :(
