WISN 12 News - Milwaukee

Videos dont play.

I like to check up on the LOCAL news when I miss the broadcast. But their app is filled with so much junk and nonsense stories. Why add the all sponsored content, advertising stories? It’s a headache to navigate. I actually get my news now from the other two stations websites, cause this app is just is so unappealing. And I can get all the local news from them.

I have had the Channel 12 app for years. I admit sometimes I got a little annoyed at the volume of notifications they sent out, especially if it was something silly like a human interest story that had been airing all week. I guess I got my wish for fewer notifications when they just stopped altogether. I can’t get weather or news. I tried reinstalling the app, nothing. The settings are set to weather, local and national news. Absolutely nothing. I had to download Channel 4’s app to get notifications and now use theirs more often. I can’t figure out what went wrong.

I like channel 12 but the app crashes too much

Even though the only notification I have turned on is Weather, I am constantly getting notifications on other topics, including what they call breaking news. You can’t report the problem to them directly either. It takes you to their webpage where you need to call them or email them. It’s easier if I just uninstall it. The length and continuous bombardment of commercials is ridiculous. Nothing to see here. Time to move on to one of the competitors.

First thing I check out every morning 👍🏼

Unable to read more than the first two lines of a story. Fortunately the ads are unaffected and that is, after all, what really matters.

My FAVOURITE

Many times my Channel 12 app will not open on my phone. Just keeps buffering.

Too often the video forecast doesn’t have any video attached.
