WAVE Local News Reviews

Absolutely love Wave 3 news! Love the whole entire team! I love how personal they are! They are a team that really cares about their news stories and the individuals that the news stories are about! I love each one of them across the board and to me, Wave 3’s passion shows in the awesome job that they do, in their coverage of the news! GO Wave 3 and thank you for always allowing your heart to be touched, whether reporting good or bad news! You are in my book, the best!

Very sad in 2017 still no closed captions on most videos in app. Good example is the Lamar Jackson one today. I know there will be no response. They could care less
Update made it even worse. Clicking on articles many times gives 404 error page not found. Surely you can afford competent app programmers. Just copy how WDRB and other local channels do. This is absolutely the worst local news app.

I hate WAVELocalNews. I get a notification about a breaking story and it is impossible to find on the news page.
Example: i just got a notification that Two High Schoolers for Sou IN tested positive. Because I didn’t open it from the notification...I looked on WAVELocalNews . Don’t see it anywhere.
Also...WAVE is VERY often behind WLKY AND WDRB on posting breaking news.
I love your news personalities and that’s what keeps me tuning in...not WAVELocalNews or the coverage.
Honestly since you have gone to news practically all day long...the content is worse. Not many want to watch the local news fpr hours a day!!

I like viewing my wave 3 news app and the weather app also because when we do have bad weather my wave 3 weather alerts me if the weather is severe and I thank the weather team at wave 3 News I like Kevin Harden and Brain Good and I like Everybody at WAVE3News Thank you JohnNichols Johnpaul

If I lived in Louisville I wouldn’t notice anything. WAVELocalNews would be great. However living outside of Louisville the weather needs to be updated. Many times the daily forecast will be days old. This throws off the 3 day and 10 day forecast. Then I change location to Louisville and it’s almost always down to the hour current. The worst for me is weekends. I wake up check weather on Sunday and it is still stuck on Thursday.

Like WAVELocalNews . It is easy to use but the ads get in my last nerve. Sometimes you get stuck in the ad and can't get out then you have to start WAVELocalNews again and see another advertisement! It's incredibly annoying. Update: still annoying. It’s also annoying to get a news updating your phone then go to WAVELocalNews and can’t find the story.

I liked WAVELocalNews in the past. (I have updated WAVELocalNews). Unfortunately, the advertising keeps popping up as I am attempting to read an article. I can’t get the adds to go off my screen to let me continue reading. Eventually, I close WAVELocalNews and look elsewhere for my information. Sad. I like Wave 3. But not WAVELocalNews . Frustrating to attempt the reading of short articles. Even weather articles.

It my favorite news station and there app is really useful to find out if your school is closed or not or to watch top stories

Wave 3 is your typical, run of the mill liberally slanted news app. They will never say anything positive about anything that conservatives and republicans do while making everything democrats and liberals do sound like sweet music. I want to keep up with what is going on in my hometown so I picked the lesser of the evils since everything is slanted to the left. WAVELocalNews is a necessary evil. Luckily I can think for myself so seeing how they polish up garbage for the left is rather comical.

A lot of grammar and misinformed published online - need proof readers!
Will get breaking news alerts, but then can’t find the story on WAVELocalNews.
Also the pop-up ads are terrible. Very disruptive.
Mostly a good app, compared to others.

I really do like wave 3 but I can’t watch live because it will black the screen out every second or two which makes it impossible to catch anything. My iPhone 11 is always up to date as well as WAVELocalNews so idk. Thinking about just deleting

Good coverage, but WAVELocalNews has too many glitches. Can’t watch things live without it skipping or not playing at all. Have to close down WAVELocalNews and open it all over again to get anything to work. Very frustrating.

Since updating today on my iPhone XR ever time I open WAVELocalNews it crashes immediately and closes itself so an app I have always loved and the only one I use locally now gets 1 star til this is fixed. I’ve restarted my phone didn’t change anything. I refuse to watch the news so I only check WAVELocalNews at night so I choose what I want to see and avoid the crap of today’s society. So disappointed

WAVELocalNews is okay other than the fact that it has pop up ads that can’t be closed without forcibly closing app and restarting. When you close and restart you lose your place on the story your reading. I wonder if the 18 year old in charge of WAVELocalNews has ever tried to use it?

I could not make it without my WAVE 3 App. It truly does give me up to date notifications regarding weather and news. I’m the first in my office to know all the latest news. WAVE 3 App is BOMB!!!

Latest update to WAVELocalNews is a disaster! No longer get directly to news. Now have to open a separate page. I get out of WAVELocalNews and start seeing 10-20 notices of new stuff but when open no idea what or where the new stuff is. Have to scroll through everything. Wastes to much of my time!

Why don't alerts actually take you to the story about which you posted the alert? Instead, they just go to the news home page, with an hours-old story about a Bullitt County youngster who trained his pet rabbit to roll over and beg on command.

Like being alerted to breaking news, weather etc. Communication important @ all times, but now more than ever.

WAVELocalNews updated to include the NBC notification sound. It’s loud and annoying. I can’t find the option to turn it off. Also… “breaking news” is clearly a relative term because I get notifications for all kinds of stories that aren’t important.

WAVE app was my go-to news and information app but not anymore.
The new app makes you click through advertisements before it opens.
Then you have to select the news stories, which again, more advertising, plus it is slow.
Just deleted WAVELocalNews off my device.

Always ready w the news at a moment’s notice!

Let me say first wave news and weather is my favorite! That’s why you’re only channel I have app on. I like the weekend crew and mornings but don’t care much for the new app format. As a matter of fact I liked the old one better.

I am on iOS 12.3.1, using the iPhone 7+, and it crashes every time I open WAVELocalNews . It is also crashing when I tap on a push notification to deep dive into WAVELocalNews .

My morning must

When you click on certain stories, that story is not displayed, videos are there instead. It is happening on multiple stories and quite frustrating. Please fix i!

Latest update is absolutely horrible. Ever since the update I have not been able to open WAVELocalNews once without it crashing. My iphone software is up to date and WAVELocalNews still doesn’t work. Please fix this issue soon!
