WLBT 3 On Your Side Reviews

by Kayla In MS

It seems that just as soon as someone gets an app that works perfectly in every way, someone somewhere sitting around a board room meeting table decides that since its too perfect to be improved, they will just start from scratch and mess it all up again. Did you give these guys a monthly technology budget just to sit around and think of ways to make things worse?

So heres what you are going to need to do: either 1 - delete the technology budget so that there wont be a team to pay that wants to just screw things up and make everything more complicated. Or 2 - fire the team now, bring in some new people to replace WLBT3OnYourSide and get it back to like it was. Because at this point, you are losing veiwers and followers because of WLBT3OnYourSide’s jibberish. So, like, fix it. Please dear god fix it.

I enjoy WLBT & the reporters, journalist, etc.. that are involved with the this news station. However WLBT3OnYourSide stinks. It barely functions. Anytime you try to watch a video and turn your phone to maximize the picture on your screen, the video stops & WLBT3OnYourSide freezes. This has happened for years, across two different phones. This non-functioning video issue occurs on the newest iPhone 11 Pro. So, it’s not the phone. Another issue I have is with the glaring volume difference between the, UNAVOIDABLE & blaring ADVERTISEMENTS that WLBT3OnYourSide bombards the user with & the usually low volume of the actual news video the user wanted to see.
Please fix these issues!!!

You can’t find the story anywhere.
Also when you click on a store there is a little blurb about the story you want to read but more about other stories. Sometimes change is not better

I despise the latest updated version of WLBT3OnYourSide. The Homepage and News have the same content. The previous app offered easier navigation and more news, I loved it. WLBT3OnYourSide is limited to just local from what I tried to look through. What happened to Entertainment, Strange News even Trending. Apps are supposed to be easy to navigate and find out information, this one isn’t at all. Inevitably I deleted WLBT3OnYourSide because if I can’t find what I’m looking for I don’t need it taking up storage space on my phone.

Aside from the grammatical errors contained in the body of a regular portion of the news stories, combined with the BOMBARDMENT of pointless ads, I suppose this is the best we simple Mississippi folks should expect to receive.

I truly feel sympathy for the older generation of Mississippians who have to endure these ads, which not only serve them with little interest, but are manufactured to open when the user attempts to close said ad.

Can you imagine the growing number of third party of mindless game tabs open on ole grandpa’s phone that we got for him last Christmas?

All he wanted to do was look at the local forecast.

Instead he’s forced to endure ad after ad of “Candy Stacker 5000”, or whatever other nonsense you allow to advertise on your site.

Please do better.

This is unacceptable.

The newest version of WLBT3OnYourSide is horrible. I do not know how this design was allowed to make it out, but it is not user friendly in any way. Everything is unresponsive in it. Want to read a story? Forget it, nothing happens when you try to. Furthermore, you just had a redesign not too long ago, why are we having yet another one? My advice, stay away from this version of WLBT3OnYourSide . It is useless as it is now. It only serves to eat up space on your device.

This new version is absolutely horrible! In the article y’all ask if we want to get updated news, we’ll I’ve updated WLBT3OnYourSide and it’s way worse than the previous version. You constantly get alerts on various breaking news stories but they never appear on WLBT3OnYourSide . Today is Thursday and on my app I’m still showing Tropical Storm Gordon as my top story. Can y’all please get WLBT3OnYourSide updated as advertised or I will be forced to get my news elsewhere. Thank you.

App used to be okay, but it no longer opens to the article you select. When you get an article notification and click on it, it opens to WLBT3OnYourSide but not the article. Pretty useless. Last couple of updates haven’t fixed, so I’m deleting.

by Xlkems

Why do you not have a way to share you news stories on Facebook? Quite often, I want to share a breaking story and that isn’t an option I can find anywhere. Help?

by Rachel4338

First, a breaking news story notification pops up. It sounds really serious or interesting, something you definitely need to read. You click to read the story, then it either takes you to a different news story or says it’s unavailable. Then guess what? The notification is no longer there, so you have to read thru all WLBT3OnYourSide news stories to find it. Sometimes it takes 5-10 minutes for WLBT3OnYourSide to show the story. Why is WLBT3OnYourSide wasting people’s time if we can’t read the story?

by L-graves3006

It used to be nice and you could flip from story to story. Now you can’t and they never update the stories. I’m reading stuff from this weekend and nothing new, maybe an article or two but last updated story says 12 hours ago. Need to work on staying on top of the game.

Wlbt have some of the finest journalists that report their news with accuracy and with dignity, compassion for their viewers! The people that cares about how they deliver their findings of what’s taken place across the cities, county, and what’s happening overall in our community and country! Maggie Wade, Howard Ballou and Walt Grayson are the best. When it comes to weather we have some of the finest meteorologists!
Ted Fortenberry is one cool composed guy!

I like receiving breaking news and I like being able to post breaking news online.

I personally do not like the new updated news app. The old app was not as confusing and you had more news options to chose from ex: Entertainment and Strange news. I am having to go to another local news app just to get the news I use to could get on WLBT3OnYourSide.

I enjoy getting my news when I need it, anytime anywhere.
