News 8000 | WKBT News 8 Reviews

by A Frustrated Snap Chat User

I only had to download News8000WKBTNews8 because they are canceling the text service for school cancelations. When i opened News8000WKBTNews8 it asked me to allow notifications, so I did because I need them for the weather. When I tried turning off the news notifications I realized there was not an option to do so unless I turn them off completely. News8000WKBTNews8 is a waste of my time.

Did I miss something?? I did not see coverage of Trump in Marinette on your news program this morning (Friday) at 8:50 - 9:30.

Was a great app! Now the stories are old and there are a lot of video stories that I would like to read not watch (data charges). At this juncture it isn't worth the space on my phone.

Pop up ads ruined app. I will be finding something else. Could also use a better radar for weather but doesn't matter to me anymore

It would be nice if you could watch more than 30 seconds of the live feed without the screen freezing and eventually just shutting off. Sections on News8000WKBTNews8 are tough to find me navigation is difficult at best. I’ll watch WXOW in the morning!

When scrolling through the news items, the ads get in the way. I frequently find that I’m unexpectedly back at the top item. Very challenging compared to other web pages using iPhone. Using a PC however doesn’t produce these navigation issues.

Whenever I’m scrolling down through the news, News8000WKBTNews8 will suddenly pop me right back at the top for no reason! Drives me crazy!! I tend to just scroll the news on the website. FYI, I use an iPhone 13 now but last was the XS Max, had same problems with both!

"News8000 cannot be installed at this time." I've been getting this error message for days.

News updates slow to come. Some stories never concluded. Always plenty of ads though. Just like their TV news and TV programming. Realizing it is a business but one 30 second story to every 4 minutes of ads is abusive.

I don't use News8000WKBTNews8 all that much, but it's good for regional news and weather.

Video feed keeps "sticking" and I have to refresh it from video play screen; very annoying...

by Mike Ablan

I like it because it covers news in geographical sections. Nice job!

News 8000 is the most reliable and dependable source around for news and weather

You are always the first new station I get on line that reports the breaking news even before my Milwaukee stations and national news sources. Keep up the great work.

I don't watch tv much this time of year. I hate the lies and misinformation that Scott Walker and his Republican cronies spread about their opponents ! This way I get to pick what I read and hear.

News 8000 brings me a balanced combination of local and national news. While drinking a cup of coffee I can be brought up to speed on the happenings in my community and the entire world in less than 30 minutes. Love it!

This is a very good app for instant weather and news updates. With News8000WKBTNews8 you do not have to watch the news to stay updated on current events.
