WLFI TV News Channel 18 Reviews

But I cannot get it to open on my iPad. Thus for me it is worthless and I have lost all contact with the news from there.

It doesn't work. I've reinstalled several times even restarted iPad and WLFITVNewsChannel18 still will not open. Don't download.

WLFITVNewsChannel18 does not work right, I keep having to go to WLFITVNewsChannel18 Store to open the newest version. Even though I've updated it.

I've had WLFITVNewsChannel18 for a while now and it worked fine. I don't have cable so o rely on watching the live feed through WLFITVNewsChannel18 in the morning before going to work. Tried watching and now it says error. Problem with video player. This needs to be fixed asap

I looked on both apps & neither showed anything about school delays or closings. However if you check the internet WLFI shows them. What’s up with that?

Info doesn’t stay updated. The weather information isn’t recent.

I downloaded WLFITVNewsChannel18 for weather alerts because we live on the edge of tornado alley.. but I noticed lately, wlfi has been skipping over my county entirely when it comes to severe thunderstorm alerts and tornado warnings, even though we get hit first.
And we were just hit with a severe storm, and had no idea it was coming, because I got no alert or notification or anything.
The whole reason I got WLFITVNewsChannel18 was for accurate local weather alerts, but.. we’re not getting them anymore.

WLFITVNewsChannel18 try's to do a lot of things but none of them really well at all. It has become very slow to load and unresponsive at times. Ads are annoying and get in the way. Very spammy way of presenting things.

One should not retire the old version until the new version works! New version crashes on opening. It's initial splash screen doesn't even fit my device (iPhone 5). Since old version is no longer connected through their service and the new version is dead in the water, I guess they don't need my eyes looking at all their pop-up ads either.

Won't open! I used the old app all the time and now that I deleted it for the new one I can't get it to open at all. I've updated my phone, uninstalled and reinstalled the new app over and over and still nothing. Don't put it up, especially as a "news story" unless it's ready to use!!! Ridiculous.

Needs work. Since they launched this new app I don't get any notifications. I've set it up to receive them. I get notifications from all of my other apps.

I'm on iPad OS 9.3 and app site is poorly organized and maintained. Most "news" I see is from fall of 2017!

Finally cut the cable and all is well EXCEPT: needed to find a solution that allowed me to get my daily briefing from the best local news anchor ever, Jeff Smith. Was delighted that the WLFI app (and Apple TV app) had a “live” mode which not only broadcast the various daily news broadcasts, but rebroadcast the most recent one in between newscasts-I’m spoiled by DVR’s and life just doesn’t allow me to camp in front of the tv in eager anticipation. Unfortunately, the rebroadcast news is just unwatchable: news reports constantly drop out leaving one to sit in silence watching the “We’ll Be Right Back” logo for endless minutes on end. This is no small disruption: today the 0:30 cold opening took about ten minutes, interrupted three times! One story constantly dropped out, many times after just a few seconds. A story will play for a couple of seconds and then “We’ll Be Right Back” for several minutes. The rebroadcasts are heavily compressed causing every change of camera angle to pixelate. If you watch the 6:00 news right at 6:00, the broadcast seems better with both dropouts and pixelation. But the rebroadcasts are a complete no-go. I’ve tested this on ROKU, Apple TV, and iOS, and the problems duplicate on all devices. Anybody know what’s going on with this?

I have WLFITVNewsChannel18 and it often cuts to an advertisement suggesting to download WLFITVNewsChannel18 . Why? I’m USING the downloaded App so why have a repetitive commercial suggesting I download WLFITVNewsChannel18 ? Also often right as the news starts WLFITVNewsChannel18 cuts to a commercial (see above) when in the normal program it is not at a commercial break? Much work needs to be done. I often give up and exit.

iPhone 6s+ for the record. It's divided into sections which might be handy except for the fact that a popup ad covers the screen with the first story access in every one of the sections. If it does that every time i use it, there will very few times.

Finally iPhone X compliant. Thank you. Adjusted score up.

It opens just fine for me. All story's you click on open too. iPhone 6plus.

Mine opened just fine on my iPhone ... no problems at all ... love the new look

I can not get the new app to work so now I can't get any Local news. I already deleted. You need to fix this problem. The weather one worked. I had no problem with it.

Not really worth taking a star away because WLFITVNewsChannel18 works fine regardless, but the annoying pop-up that reminds you about Bluetooth. It pops-up every time I open WLFITVNewsChannel18 . I'm not interested in using it now or anytime in the foreseeable future. Fix that and I'll be happy.
