FOX 9 Minneapolis: News Reviews

I have used your Fox 9 news app for years without issue. The last couple of weeks when I touch the icon, I get a blue screen with a spinning circle, and no matter how long I wait, it never connects. I have uninstalled and reinstalled FOX9Minneapolis a half dozen times. When I do, it will always connect immediately after reinstalling, and sometimes for a time or two after, but then it will sit and spin again. I have no other apps that do this, including your weather app which still works great. This problem has become annoying so I am uninstalling FOX9Minneapolis indefinitely and will get my news elsewhere. Perhaps I’ll reinstall it again in a month or two and see if anything has been changed/fixed.

I downloaded this to mainly watch the news live. The thing is when I tap on the video to watch the news FOX9Minneapolis gives me a message about there being a server error then it exits.

Note that I can still go to the fox 9 website and watch the video there and it worked fine but the reason I got FOX9Minneapolis is so it would be easier to access.

Not sure why stuff just can't work like it's supposed to. Not sure if app developers just want you to download their apps versus using the web so they can harvest your personal info from your device and force feed you ads.

This actually is better than the other local news channel apps. However, sometimes I wonder if it’s just the intern doing it… No offense… The news tends to be not be updated as often as it should be. For example, there is an article about yesterdays weather still on there today And that seems to happen quite often. It needs to be more timely. the “back to school”heading hasn’t changed for months to the point it’s so irritating I would delete FOX9Minneapolis if I had better option! plz update

The weather forecast always is a day off. The weather listed under the day before is actually today’s weather. The weather under “Today” is then tomorrow’s weather. It is a bit frustrating to try and figure out the rest of the week. Other than that I really like FOX9Minneapolis . My favorite is the radar.

I used to use FOX9Minneapolis several times a day. Now, when I try to open it, it pops up and....sometimes there is an ad .. BUT it doesn’t open. I know this is happening to others as well. This is terrible. Please take care of this flaw. I rate it high based on past use. Really it no stars because I cannot open it today ..... nor for the past week.

Every time I try to open it in FOX9Minneapolis it just sits and spins never opens . I have had to re-download it about 8 times and it works for a week or so and than stops working .. not a very reliable app wish it work better but don’t .. have moved to other news apps that actually work and download.. do better fix fox 9 but I think I’m gonna delete it and don’t have to worry bout it not loading .. very annoying when you just trying to catch up on the news around your area.

Without a doubt your news team had to LOVE this series. Your live shows during all 3-5 newscasts was such a “breath of fresh air” compared to what they have to report nearly every day. Kelsey and everyone showed what true professionals they are working without a teleprompter and sitting on a lawn chair on the top of a river dike! Thank you all
For a tremendous news show. Dave Myren Chaska Mn

Usually I like FOX9Minneapolis but since the last update most times when I open FOX9Minneapolis a full screen ad shows up and it is also loud. Makes it hard to check during the day due to the amount of ads and sound. Please remediate this issue.

Fox 9 has the BEST weather on TV. Love Ian Leonard. Learn so much interesting weather stuff from him.
Wish the news app would have more stories both local and statewide from the new casts. The coverage is good-would like it to include more that you can read, less video. Do not want to want to have the audio on when in a quiet place and want the news.

It would be nice if there was a chrome cast option when watching live through FOX9Minneapolis instead of just screen sharing with other apple devices.

This is a great app for staying in touch with our breaking local news stories. FOX9Minneapolis has always worked well for me and the alerts that are sent out, give a headline whether I choose to read/listen/watch the broadcast or not.

I like getting the top stories when I have time to read them. Thanks FOX 9!

I love the functionality of FOX9Minneapolis. It has everything you can ask, and between the news and the weather apps, Fox 9 gives it all.
Thank you for keeping me and the other users up to date.

Since I have moved from my native Twin Cities I keep updated
On the news using Fox 9 News. I love being able to know what is happening from afar. Sometimes I know the news before my relatives!
Keep up the good work Fox 9!

This is my favorite mobile app news site.
The format is well organized and easy to follow. The fact that you can sometimes view the televised report on various news items is a plus.

Seems like more stories in new version but just keeps showing same stories in different order/categories. Will probably switch to different local news app. And clean up old stories. You have a heat wave story from 4 days ago. It’s 50 and raining not feels like 94 degrees. You have failed with your weather app update and now your news app. Seeing what you’ve done to these apps is as painful as the Herschel Walker trade and the North Stars going to Dallas.

I love channel 9 in a Minneapolis Minnesota. I do get frustrated sometimes though with I believe a certain day out of each week there’s nothing but game shows on the 7-9 programs. Just not a big game watcher. Except the beat Shazam. But Thank You Channel 9

Updates on the news, weather conditions.

I love that I can still get the live news on nights when my rabbit ears reception is less than perfect.

Much better than the other local stations in town.

Keep adding as much live content as FOX will allow for free!

This news app use to be good before they started to bombard the reader with obnoxious ads. Some ads are so difficult to close out of and just yield me closing my attempt to read this source and go elsewhere for news.
The weekend updates for news are a little lacking as well. News during the week is kept a little more up to date.

Of the 4 major news station apps, Fox 9 is my go-to. Very well organized and easy to find what I might be looking for. Also love that it's so easy to forward stories/videos to my sister living in Colorado so she's in touch with hometown happenings.

I change my rating. FOX9Minneapolis updated yesterday and now it won't even open! Period! Might as well delete it. What happened! I've tried repeatedly and it won't open anymore.
