I too can no longer use ABC7NewYork- it seems to have frozen on me; the weather is permanently three days old. I can’t get anything- have tried to cancel and re-install but that does not help-I don’t know what happened-I miss it-Before all this happened it started where notifications would come up and then when I clicked on them everything just disappeared. I couldn’t get them in ABC7NewYork or find the stories in ABC7NewYork at all & things were not being updated-it was good until lately-no stars! And this piece of garbage won’t even let me send in my review without putting in at least one star! I don’t want to give it any stars -it doesn’t work at all-it’s frozen now and it has been giving me grief for weeks!
And I miss Lee Goldberg’s weather reports!!!

Zero stars for lying by omission

2022-06-29

I once highly respected this news agency but over the last seven years they have completely polarized the delivery of information to the public. Journalistic integrity has gone out the window. They consistently publish in accurate information by leaving out major details which is essentially lying by omission. I removed ABC7NewYork from my phone I remove them from my web search browser I will no longer turn it on to watch on TV. I used to start my day by listening to the news and I refuse to even bother anymore with it’s one-sided hate filled propaganda.

Frustrating!!

2022-07-30

I’m like the others leaving reviews. Like the news, hate ABC7NewYork . Crashes, locks up, doesn’t update. It’s no longer my “go to” news app. None of the other news apps I use act like this one. Obviously, they don’t care to fix the issues, because the bad reviews all describe the same ones, and they go back years… not days, weeks, or months… years!! I can’t even imagine what their advertisers think about this. I’d be furious if I were in their shoes. I’m probably going to delete ABC7NewYork , and use a different one that consistently performs better.

Needs updating. Too many fake news links.

2022-08-31

It’s a decent local news app, but it needs to be updated and it’s got too many advertising links dressed up as fake news stories.
ABC7NewYork needs to be formatted for different size phones. The fonts look huge on my iPhone 6 Plus and there’s no way to adjust the font size. The notifications are also annoying and should be controllable within ABC7NewYork , perhaps to allow for different kinds of alerts you may want or don’t want (e.g. all news, local news, weather, sports, traffic, politics).
The fake news links to advertising are a real disappointment. You’d think a news app, especially ABC, would want to maintain the integrity of their news outlet and not list a bunch of fake news links after their stories under “You might also be interested in...” That’s just lame.

Too Many Advertisements

2022-10-02

While an outstanding app. I've grown up with ABC 7 and I will always be loyal to Eyewitness News and WABC as I've been watching the program for 20 years. I understand the necessity to use advertisements to make ABC7NewYork profitable, but to have a 30-60 second advertisement play prior to every video playing is a bit ludicrous. I could understand having it after every 4-5 videos but every video to have to watch a 30-60 second ad in a world like New York where things move quickly. Sometimes we just want to watch the content uninterrupted you know? That's my only gripe! Offer a paid version of these apps without the advertisements. It's an even bigger slap to the face when the advertisement is longer than the actual video itself.. 😞.

Can I scroll down without being “click-baited“

2022-11-02

There are too many ad’s that are apparently relishing on my fingertips not being smooth enough to scroll down in peace. Every half an inch I “accidentally click“ on a less than meaningful ad that takes me elsewhere without me asking for it. Time to calibrate your page please. Videos taking very long to load, or loading in the background somehow while I'm *watching another news feed* from same app.

App is repetitive and not monitored

2022-12-04

ABC7NewYork seems to be only good for watching live, but when you replay videos there is no sequence to the videos. They repeat at times sometimes even showing the same video three times in a row.
The other news apps have a sequence to their videos and not one of them repeats. Why can’t ABC7NewYork do that.
Also when you want to watch the news, just show the news when we replay videos. We don’t need to see a review on beauty spots, massages and facials! There should be an option to skip through if these and the sort!

Traffic no longer works since last update

2023-01-04

The traffic page no longer shows anything, just a blank page.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled ABC7NewYork to no avail. I can get to the traffic source thru a webpage but nothing thru ABC7NewYork shows.
Time for a another update that works this time. Shoddy project management on your developers.

And as always too many ads, I know all you companies are greedy but it just aggravates people and turns them away from using your products. I make it a point to never ever purchase a product that is advertised to me.

What’s good versus what’s absurd

2023-02-05

I respect ‘ Channel 7 on your side ‘ for reporting consumer abuse
And illegal companies taking money and failing to do thee work.
There coverage of heroic rescues involving heroes from children to adults is wonderful too.

Unfortunately your channel covers 3 hours of reporting with previews of what’s coming up: first: without a time frame or presenting it 2nd: previews of the weather within 5 minutes of coming on the air! each hour! 3rd and what’s most prevalent to us(consumers who watch the network).

I want news coverage of up to the minute news; your words not mine! The weather should be towards the end of your top news that we want to hear and see. We are not all dumb people who just care about the blah blah reporting.

I hope you see this and doesn’t get lost. I’ll be watching for now.

Sincerely yours,
Edward Woods

Great app but jump to bottom of story annoying

2023-03-09

I’m a big fan of ABC News and Eyewitness News in New York. And ABC7NewYork is a great way to keep up with the stories when I don’t have time to watch the news

But, when you open the story and start to read, ABC7NewYork just jumps to the bottom of the story for no reason. And you have to scroll back up to the top to actually start reading. Not just random - every time. More often than not, I just click out of the story

I tried reporting this on the Feedback form, but that page doesn’t work. I’ve seen a few other reviews were people were having this problem as well. Please fix this - it’s really annoying

News is Important

2023-04-07

I like and trust the news coverage on ABC7NewYork. I can scroll easily but images don’t load quickly. I like the font and it is easy to read if you don't have perfect vision. I like options to read privately rather than having to go immediately to a video. I find there is a good variety of war news coverage also the bad local events not just the big headlines. I do like the health and education news to be current and less opinion on random political figures and events. Updates to stories I have read would also be helpful and hopeful.

Many glitches

2023-05-09

ABC7NewYork needs some tweaking, ABC7NewYork . Continuously is Booting me out to my home page on my phone, I have ran The diagnostics on my phone and it is NOT my phone it IS ABC7NewYork . Also commercials and/or “Ads” get cut off and sent to blue screen during live news casts and if watching “Breaking news” (which is live) ABC7NewYork . Makes you watch an Ad Mean While there is SERIOUS breaking News!!! That OF ALL THINGS NEEFS TO BE FIXED!! ASAP!! What if something even More serious the
COVID-19 Comes three or God forbid a war coming our way or a Bomb from Russia and I’m watching the news ONLY TO GET AN AD BEFORE SEEING THE LIVE NEWS!! It makes NO SENSE?!?!?!? I mean if I was watching tv news Breaking news Breaks threw Regular scheduling TV to report “Breaking news”!! FIX THE GLITCH!! SOME PEOPLES LIVES DEPEND ON ABC7NewYork. ITS THE ONLY NEWS I CAN GET PLEASE FIX THIS????

ABC Eyewitnesses News Mobile App

2023-06-09

Hello,
I love your mobile app except for the “time-out” it automatically does while reading stories. It is not my iPhone that causes this because it happens on my iPad too, as well as, to friends of mine. When this happens I have to reopen ABC7NewYork and start all over again and wait for the stories to reload again. This even happens while I’m in the middle of reading a story. This is very annoying. Can you fix this to make the site even more enjoyable? I have reported this before and no one replied. I find that not being nice either. A reply feedback would have been courteous. Thank you.

Please go back to your previously creatively and tactfully designed layout and colors

2023-07-11

What on earth did you do to ABC7NewYork ? The beautiful picture of the freedom Tower the weather the good morning quote the beautiful dark blue colors it's all gone in the latest version. You can't scroll through what you want with snippets without going through each story with a major white background burning your eyes it's Terrible. Please go back to what you were good at.

Great News App But...

2023-08-11

I just love ABC7NewYork and how it gives you breaking news. I also love how well it works with the Apple Watch, but it’s still not optimized for the iPhone X even though the screen shots suggest otherwise. I’ve tried updating ABC7NewYork , deleting ABC7NewYork , restarting my phone, but it just doesn’t take advantage of the screen size of the iPhone X. Other than that I love ABC7NewYork and would suggest it to anyone who is looking for a great news app to keep you in the know.

Coronavirus

2023-09-12

It isn’t necessary to show children in hospital beds on ventilators or tubes in nose it’s very upsetting for parents who lost children to see that every night on the news I think we get the point that children are getting sick but those images aren’t necessary there are other ways to tell the story

App

2023-10-14

ABC7NewYork is great. I love ch 7 and try to watch it whenever I can I wake up to them and go to sleep listening to them. I love everyone on the desk and the field.
ThanksI. I think people should stop complyabout the heatwave. We can shower a few times, wears cold wear a cold towels around your neck ,stay in a/c. When it is winter we have ice and snow. Falls are inevitable. Just think about it. The heatwave is bad but I will take it over the winter anytime.

Great App! But....

2023-11-14

Absolutely love the new app! It’s beautiful! Works great. Recently though (past day) it won’t open top news; it says that there is no connection, however, when I tap on my news it opens no problem. It’s just top new page that doesn’t open for me. I am connected to WiFi. I have checked all the connections. That is the only problem. Otherwise, super awesome app!!

Up to the minute news updates

2023-12-16

The ABC7NY news app is my #1 source for breaking news in New York City. Minutes after something happens, I get an alert on my phone with relevant details and information that helps me navigate my day. I love and recommend ABC7NewYork for every New Yorker, tourist and long term visitor. In the city that never sleeps, you need a vehicle that keeps you in the fold, and ABC7NewYork rates #1, hands down!

Best anchor woman

2024-01-16

I met Nevine daliwal from ABC news channel and she treated me so nice ever since we’ve stayed in contact i try my best to help her with stories from the neighborhood of the south bronx i wish there were more anchors like her well anyway her professionalism is well appreciated on how she tells the stories on crime and other issues thank you for being a great channel to watch the news.

Political

2024-12-23

Political view points on ABC7NewYork as well as ALL TV broadcasts and ABC world news tonight support OUR President 3% and the Democrats 97% considering our country is going strong, 6 million people are on food stamps, unemployment is the lowest it’s been in 50 years and black unemployment is the lowest it’s ever been in history. Notice, not one of the Democratic candidates ever mention any of this and neither does ABC news and you David Muir never asked at the debate.....why? You NEVER mention any of President Trump’s success. Didn’t even attempt to retract the latest Kavanagh nonsense when even the NYtimes had a print a retraction . Liberal media is horrible. I tape it, pass over all your political nonsense and the commercials and just stick to what’s happening in New York. It’s bias political nonsense. My GF button is now a necessary. Sadly ABC has always been my station but I’m straying away little by little because of the news coverage. With so much competition, ABC has to step it up and show more equality and less bias.

Love the app. Hate the glitches.

2024-12-23

I enjoy the the news stories however I have been experiencing major glitches when I attempt to listen to your videos on ABC7NewYork . When I click a video to hear reporting sometimes I will hear an ad playing simultaneously. Right now when I click a video I hear no audio. Please fix!!!

New iOS update crashes app

2024-12-23

Gave 3 stars because I don’t believe it’s ABC app fault. Love ABC7NewYork but I think there are issues with the newest iOS update 13. Many articles show people should wait to update when 13.1 comes out as there are numerous problems people are having with the current one, including apps crashing.

Best News App Ever!!

2024-12-23

I love ABC7NewYork it keeps me up to date with the latest News!! I recently was out of town and was able to check in on what's happening in my town! They are very reliable with breaking News! Five stars from me!! Also the stories are in great written details if you're not watching live!

Hooray for Channel 7

2024-12-23

As someone who still thinks of Roger Grimsby and Bill Beutel when they play the Eyewitness News theme, my family always watches Channel 7 news to this day. WABC/7 is and always has been like a member of the family. It’s not New York news, unless Channel 7 reports it. We also loved the return of both Sam Champion and Spencer Christian.
