WHIO

iphone user. whio news app has lowered the bar again. this time with a floating ad that some stays on phone screen after you leave and go to other apps. the ad somehow took over my phones splash screen. had to delete whio app from memory to stop this nonsense.

I love using this app to get the local news in the Montgomery County and surrounding areas. It’s easy to use and with no glitches. I recommend this app to anybody that wants the news in Montgomery County and surrounding counties. WHIO is one a few stations that will give you the news in the surrounding areas.

I used to love this app, but I can hardly stand to open it anymore. I hate the addition of the video that plays at the top of the app. I can’t open the app without the video playing and obnoxiously loud at that. The first time I opened it after the addition of the video I was in the waiting room at my dentist and it blared incredibly loud the second I opened the app. It was horribly embarrassing. Now I don’t feel safe, opening it anywhere in public, and half the time don’t care to open it when I’m alone because even when I managed to get the stupid video to stop playing, within a few minutes, it starts playing again. I wish the creators of the app would find someway to keep the video from playing automatically. Until that happens, I’ll just use the WDTN app instead.

I have had this app for a few years but never find a place to comment on articles. I am concerned that the Haitians in Springfield are getting better treatment than it’s citizens. First, their driving habits are atrocious and yet the only commit by DeWine(grinning) saying they really can’t drive! How are they getting drivers license? They run red lights all the time, they get in accidents and I see them laughing! I know this first hand because I have a job to which I drive 3 days a week in Springfield. I know the police are so under-manned. And then I hear on the news that Springfield residents that are sometimes handicapped, being kicked out of their housing because they are on section 8, just so landlords can charge more for Haitian residents! That should be illegal. You are making our citizens homeless, no matter their condition, just so you can make more money! I am not against the Haitians wanting to have a better life, but they must learn our laws and absolutely no driving until they have been thru 6 weeks of driving school!

App is glitchy. Freezes and stutters. Videos are spotty and often won’t play, or play double with slightly offset audio.

Always closing and freezing up

Channel 7 news people do way more censoring than they should. Like most tv stations channel 7 is run by owners who force employees to behave like robots who can only say so many things because employees fear they will be fired if they show some views as individuals. It’s sickening to see even at 2024 lots of tv workers from channel 7 and other stations, workers appear as they are which are very reading (phony and fake)and quite boring to many who watch news like myself. There are some channel 7 workers like weather lady Ms. Ritz who appear not as a robot but human. I sure miss Don Wayne and Gil Whitney and if corse Jim Baldridge( sorry If I misspelled his name. Cheryl McHenry is Great too. I don’t know how she can take the phoniness but I will give the phonys the benefit of doubt by saying we all have a fee will from God to be transparent as possible to God and others. I just wish news was not as scrutinized as it is by owners of stations. The public can’t blame everyone for being genuine and real. We all are imperfect but this madness of reluctancy to comment on racism, police brutality human trafficking and politics is enough to make anyone throw up. Channel 7 workers those who fail to be real with the public, please ask God to give you a stronger spinal column so you can help our world be informed more with realness and quit allowing owners to dictate to you how to stifle being human.

As the title says this will not work on any vpn I’ve tried. Do to all the internet security issues I always keep my vpn on as an extra layer of security and privacy. Got tired of turning vpn off and on just to use one app. So, finally deleted it and now just use the WDTN news app which has a much better user interface.

I can’t believe that I have to be faced with a known racist EVERY time I log into your app. You’re association with McAfee heating and air is disgusting. You are in such dire financial condition that you need to support racism?!

I’ve watched news sitter seven back when it was on channel 13 and that was 62 years ago I believe, but I like the way they report the local news very thoroughly and take time to investigate situations that are unfair to consumers. Thank you.
