WSYX ABC6 Reviews

Have had WSYXABC6 for almost a year but have noticed a crescendo of biased news reporting lately. Yesterday almost every other story was anti- President/ anti-American. It was so noticeable and disconcerting. Why can’t our local stations just report the news without leaning one way...& one way only! I realize national news has been leaning left for a long time- reporting only certain events, half- truths, and exaggerated stories many times not true.
I expected more from my local news and have always liked ABC6 but I refuse to watch
Or experience your app any longer! Your journalism ethics should be re-examined.

WSYXABC6 works well and the content is good. My complaint is that every time you play a video news article it plays a commercial “for the WSYX ABC app”. The same app that I’m watching the news on. E v e r y single video article leads with their own app advertisement. Every one! I understand the need to have commercials, but really? The same add for WSYXABC6 I’m using...on every video. Even the big network apps give you a break from commercials after you’ve seen a few. Way too irritating to keep watching. BTW ABC 6 Columbus is my favorite news station. I just wish they would modify their app.

WSYXABC6 gives news notifications but when you click on the notification to learn more about the story it just brings you to WSYXABC6 and there isn’t a good way to find the story that you were notification of. Make the notification pretty worthless/frustrating.

There are too many commercials that prevent WSYXABC6 from being worthwhile. I tried to get past the aggravation, but I eventually just deleted WSYXABC6 altogether. It’s a bummer because I decided to go without cable, so I have no way of getting local news except for watching their live newsfeeds and it’s just not worth the trouble.

WSYXABC6 has never refreshed properly. I have to double tap the home button and close WSYXABC6 in the bar at the bottom of the screen. Then reopen WSYXABC6 to get it to refresh. With the latest update it opens the safari window which I have to close and then reopen WSYXABC6 . I like the way WSYXABC6 is setup it just has a couple issues that need resolved. The issue with the safari window opening is a pain.

Super annoying that the live feed is gone. What happened? And the STIRR app you keep promoting isn’t working either.... would be nice to watch the news again on the morning during my workout. :/. Bring back the live stream!

Congratulations on your new gift God has given you both enjoy. This is from just grandpa. I have six gifts and 12 grand gifts. Be blessed

WSYXABC6 worked yesterday but today no stories reflect and the date reflects as 1969. I have deleted WSYXABC6 and reinstalled twice but it did not fix it. Really frustrated that I am unable to report this issue. Can’t find anything on the website either.

Content is solid, picture is decent, but you cannot maintain streaming without keeping WSYXABC6 open which is really annoying. The reason I downloaded was to have the ability to stream to AppleTV and I must have WSYXABC6 open and phone unlocked to do so.

I have a current iphone OS and WSYXABC6 will not download. Something seriously wrong with it. It finally downloaded after 4 tries.
Hope that’s not a bad sign.

It would really be nice if there was a search function on WSYXABC6. There is lots of information and it’s hard to find something pacific if you’re looking for it. I would think this will be pretty basic but it was left out.

Since the recent update, WSYXABC6 is unusable. I use dark mode in iOS and WSYXABC6 will not work with dark mode turned on. I have been using it for years, but now all content is just black when you click on the news story. Please fix this....

Can’t see any news that's comes over my phone so guess I will tune in to other stations think advertising us the issue it blocks my notifications so see ya

I have chosen to delete and switch to another station. ABC has gotten sloppy , lazy, and biased on their local reporting. Too bad, used to be a good neutral local journalism organization.

When chosen story comes up I am only seeing it’s headline and picture. Story comes up as a blank black box.

Works well when things work😂😭

Volume still not working iPhone X

I just downloaded WSYXABC6 and the weather radar is just a blank screen. Something needs to be fixed!

The new update is optimized for the iPhone 5 and brings a new category layout that is attractive and user friendly. Some work needs to be done on the stories pages and the menu buttons along the bottom. The UI here is very unappealing (both the gray color and fonts). Progress has been made, but still has a ways to go before its my "go-to" Columbus news app.

This could be a good app... When you get notifications it suggests that you swipe right to read the story, but that never happens. It just opens WSYXABC6 , but even after searching, the referenced story cannot be found. I don't understand this, as I would think that would be the intended purpose of WSYXABC6 in the first place.???

I deleted when I tried watching a video of a robbery on the East side. Told me I had to watch 5 ads before watching. People are getting way too greedy with their ads lately. I won’t be bound to them. I could just watch on local news with less time on commercials.

While I think WSYXABC6 works well, that's all it does well. Someone needs to fix all the typos and weird symbols that come up in the headlines, it looks like an armature news station. It's not well laid out or easily navigated. I moved here from a much larger city and all the news networks had fantastic apps, this is very disappointing. They need to hire better media people.

As long as the bugs are fixed and WSYXABC6 is updated it's awesome! Very happy previous versions have been fixed, keep up the good work guys!

Not a good app. It freezes and glitches out to my home screen when I click to see the weather. And the notifications don't lead to stories. And the sports section also does what the weather section does but not as often. When the sports section it's not accurate and only displays Ohio spots teams
