Tulsa’s Channel 8 Reviews

by Joby M

In portrait position, text is not formatted to fit my IPad Air screen and I don't seem to have options to fix it. Text runs off the edge of the screen. Please give me back the older version of TulsasChannel8.

Old revision is five star, current revision is zero.

Needs a lot of work. Cluttered. Doesn’t offer basic horizontal landscape view rotation for tablets

This is a terrible app. Ads are constantly running and popping up. It slows TulsasChannel8 down a lot. I have news apps for all of the news stations in Tulsa and Oklahoma City, and this one is by far the worst. It's just a big commercial.

Half the time a news story only loads the banner image and no content. When it does pull up the story, many times it's not the story you tapped on but some other story from the list, leaving you tap randomly until you stumble on the actual story you want. 100% of the time the video does not load, sure it loads the commercial but never the video for the story you want to see. And of the stories that show up on the feed, many of them are days, if not weeks old, being persistent from day to day...far from newsworthy.

Shame on apple for not allowing To down grade to iOS 5, what a bunch
Of creeps...map in iOS 6 is so lame If I had known this a head of time, I wouldn't
Of up graded... I have lost all respect For apple... Now,
The only reason I bought phone in the first place, was because of the map. Why post here? Because the giant removed my post on there site, trying to step on the little guy... I will never...
Never.. Buy another product from apple again. NOW... I know why, the bite in apple is there... And it isn't a good thing.

Seriously? You have a weather app already. Now it pops up here first? Fire the guy who designed your app and thought that was a good idea. He/she obviously does not have even a basic understanding of what your customer wants. If you want to know what your customers want, feel free to email me. Quit guessing.
Also your ads are now flashing and obtrusive. Why won't you just fix TulsasChannel8 and quit being a-holes?

This news app is the worst of all local news stations. Notifications won’t take you to a story. I don’t think Channel 8 updates the stories very often.

With the severe weather we get in Oklahoma we should be able to access live streaming radar instead of 5-10 minute delayed still pics. Also needs to support rotating screen to change screen layout.

I loved TulsasChannel8 until the new update. With the new update, the first information that comes up is the weather page and not the news/stories. You now have to go to the more tab and click on top stories. Do not like this.

I hope someone will see this. I can not share a story on Facebook that option is available but it won't work. I hope you are working on a FIX soon!

When I open TulsasChannel8 it shuts down before I can read the first headline. When this issue is fixed, I will revise my rating.

I do not like that the weather pops up first. Also, when I try to edit what I want on the tabs at the bottom they are not saved. I have to select top stories every time I want to read what's happening in Tulsa.

Seriously.... you release a brand new app and claim it is better and faster and it STILL does not support landscape mode on iPad.... deleted as waste of time as my iPad is always in a keyboard case and I have no desire to hold it in portrait... ridiculous...

The older one was much better. Half of the time, it says "No articles were found for the selected categories." Selected category is local news. Really?

by Gggffdsahhhjhffg

Notifications really blow up your phone during the newscasts. They are not necessarily breaking news as it happens throughout the day, they are whatever story is airing at the time on the air.
App is nice looking and seems to work fine, but news only seems to be updated about once per day, so you could be reading yesterday's news.

Cannot understand how to do all the tapping and swiping to open this apt

by Rexreefer

The only Tulsa news app that isn’t cluttered. News alerts are often and keep me updated.

by Kdppp

Much better since the update - better layout and interface.

by Okie.girl

But need the ability to forward videos. Wanted to forward story about Tanner the blind dog and no way to do so. Guess I have to go to full website version to do it??? Or hope I remember next time I'm online with my computer? Just need to be able to capture a link to the story. Otherwise good
