But that is not possible because the app won’t connect to the server. Worse you cannot cast it to my Roku stick. Very disappointed. I’ll get I have to watch another network. -- Lannister28573927, 2024-06-10 ### *---- "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! -- jm1751, 2024-03-26 ### **--- "New ad format super annoying." Hate the new ad format. Am deleting the app. -- RAHTSOFT, 2024-03-21 ### *---- "New update" After your new update, everything is in huge print. Cannot find a way to get the text back to normal size -- Stevebaum123, 2024-03-01 ### *---- "Can’t load “\(‘-‘)/“" Can’t download it. Very awkward. To bad because I liked watching you news. -- “\(‘-‘)/“, 2024-02-26 ### ***** "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. -- Inalou60, 2024-02-20 ### **--- "App continues to get worse" The “watch live” option is gone. News stories don’t match the headline. -- kilroy351, 2023-09-12 ### ***-- "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. -- James Charless, 2023-08-24 ### **--- "Slow" Hi, before you say it, yes, I uninstalled and reinstalled the Fox 8 app on both my iPhone 11 and my new iPad. It takes about 1 minute and 15 seconds average, for the app to open. Despite being in great wi-if and in LTE coverage, it’s still very slow to open. Please fix this ASAP! -- OhioEdward, 2023-04-07 ### **--- "Why no more articles? Too many videos!" Not sure if this is related to any app updates, but lately it seems all of the news is in video format. I prefer to have the option of reading an article and there seems to be less and less of those. Half the time I cannot even get the volume to work on news videos. Very frustrating. -- Salomal, 2023-03-31 [View all FOX 8 News reviews and detailed analytics on AppTail](https://app.apptail.io/signup?utm_campaign=ai-crawl&utm_content=reviews) ## FOX 8 News Discovered Keywords - fox news channel - akron zoo - my fox8 - fox 8 news ## Apps Similar to FOX 8 News - [New Orleans News from WWL](https://apptail.io/app/new-orleans-news-from-wwl-kfP/united-states) - [FOX 8 WVUE Mobile](https://apptail.io/app/fox-8-wvue-mobile-lfP/united-states) - [WDSU News - New Orleans](https://apptail.io/app/wdsu-news-new-orleans-ofP/united-states) - [cleveland.com](https://apptail.io/app/clevelandcom-JgP/united-states) - [Cleveland News from WKYC](https://apptail.io/app/cleveland-news-from-wkyc-KgP/united-states) - [WOIO Cleveland 19 News](https://apptail.io/app/woio-cleveland-19-news-LgP/united-states) - [News 5 Cleveland WEWS](https://apptail.io/app/news-5-cleveland-wews-MgP/united-states) - [The Plain Dealer](https://apptail.io/app/the-plain-dealer-ahP/united-states) - [WKBN 27 First News](https://apptail.io/app/wkbn-27-first-news-goP/united-states) - [NBC4 Columbus](https://apptail.io/app/nbc4-columbus-xpP/united-states) --- ## About AppTail [AppTail](https://apptail.io) is a mobile app intelligence platform providing app analytics, ASO (App Store Optimization) tools, keyword tracking, competitor analysis, revenue estimates, and review monitoring for iOS App Store apps.
