MyNBC5 WPTZ: Vermont, New York

We are “snowbirds” and certainly enjoy being able to read and learn of happenings in our hometown area while we are away. You are to be commended on keeping us up to date in a reliable and enjoyable newscast. We send our thanks to you.

The app is incredibly glitchy! I will click on a news story and suddenly the app switches back to the top of the news feed. This happens multiple times when trying to view one story until by the third or fourth time I can finally read a story. Also when scrolling down on the news feed, the app will pop back up to the top of the news feed, so I have to scroll back down again. I’m seriously considering switching to another local news app because this one is awful! Someone needs to do a better job editing/proofreading before posting stories. There’s been a number of times I have found spelling errors or misplaced words. It looks unprofessional. The app has often frozen when I’m trying to view a particular story. I’ve had to shut down the app and then open it back up. Otherwise it’s a decent app.

30 second ads for every news article??? Are you insane? Too many other news apps with better formats to use so this app will now get deleted.

I try to watch the weather update quickly and I have to go through 3 sets of ads (6 mins total). It nearly makes the app unusable.

Try to set a location it tells me there is no such place as Hartford, Vermont I guess if it’s not Burlington or Plattsburgh they just don’t give a damn… 👎👎👎

This is very helpful to me. Thank you for making it available.

This app and broadcast is just full of sensationalized information… especially the morning weather broadcast. Full of misinformation and volcanic style broadcasting to scare viewers. What happened with those cataclysmic storms and predictions that never seem to unfold? Just download a national weather app (for accuracy) and other local news apps. Also, the continued use of the micro aggression, “guys”, is a symbol of exclusion on your customer base rather than inclusion. Didn’t you get the memo? 🤦‍♀️

Why don’t you tell the people that the government has warehouses full of formula for the illegals coming across the boarder

When I try to pop on and catch the weather quick, or see a alert or breaking news, yeah that’s not happening. First you go to a ad...which most of the time takes forever to load, then maybe you will get where you want to go. I rated it, because I really want a app with my local news and weather. I hope it improves.

I do like wptz now that it has. Moved from Saranac lake to Plattsburgh. It seems to be more informative about local happenings, music is extra special.. lake clear person.
