21Alive News Reviews

by Frequent News Follower

I am sad to say that despite a station and app makeover, it still appears that no one works on the weekend. Here it is Monday morning and there was only 1 news story put on your app over the weekend (other than sports scores). I find it hard to believe that only 1 newsworthy thing happened in the Fort Wayne area this weekend. Glad we have other news options.

When you go to see closings and cancellations you can only see the name of the school. You can't see if they are on a 2 hour delay or closed. If you view it in their website on a smartphone it's the same way.

I am totally blind so I use VoiceOver to interact with my iPhone. Unfortunately, like mini television station apps, The live video will not play using voice over. If it is tapped on, a Stream schedule as shown but, nothing else. This makes it impossible for anyone who is blind and owns an iPhone to keep up with the news using 21AliveNews.

The new app is miserable. Not user friendly. The new changes to the news station and personnel are horrible. The news anchors don't seem to have much experience in the field and don't have a good TV presence. 21Alive use to be my go to station. Linda Jackson made the morning news entertaining. The entertainment factor is now gone. Because of the less than desirable news broadcasting I have gone to WaneTV, News-channel 15.

Since the last update 21AliveNews will not load. I even deleted it and reinstalled it but still won’t load.

So behind channel 15 at posting news stories

Don’t often have the most up to date reports on this site. Limited in the stories that are being covered

Please update so the video doesn’t auto play with sound.

I'm unable to read the delays/closings because it's zoomed in so much. There's no way for me to zoom out or even view in landscape as the orientation won't change either. Needs fixed ASAP!

Every time you scroll of the top of the list the sponsored ad starts over. It should play once and then be done. I don't need to see the same ad for a sponsor I don't have interest in over and over.

The same news is left on the sight for days, wether it local, national, or international, come on more news happens than what you guys report!! If I want sports forget it. Get with it and realize that more people get their news online than on tv or print. It’s time to catch up.

Want the weather channel back.

Pretty good so far. Improvements from the last update are nice to see. One thing to point out - I'm not sure if your team is aware, but 21AliveNews currently has the wrong Wx video forecast feed. It currently shows videos from WKOW in Madison, WI instead of WPTA in Fort Wayne. It would be nice to see that fixed soon.

21 is my only go to station for news and weather. I also watch many TV shows.
I like all of the weather and news staff people.

Great app for news, weather, traffic, and etc. for Fort Wayne, Indiana for serving for Northeast Indiana and Northwest Ohio.
