Contact Knoxville News from WBIR Support

WBIR should look at their advertising. Who has time to watch at 30 second commercial when trying to get news. It’s one thing to have advertising but every new video for 30 seconds. And not only that, many times the advertisements are on loop and don’t get to the news. These developers must do some research. I feel like this app is “good enough” to release. As a news outlet you should strive to be the best at providing factual news, in a timely manner. For the writers, y’all need some writing classes as well. Being this is a professional news service, you should not have someone like me (no journalism background) who can put out info without grammatical errors and better news. I’m deleting this app in search of a different local news app.

This app is just a platform for the creator to generate ad revenue. The content and notices are ‘interestingly’ the same with different wording as the alerts/notices as their news competitor here in Knoxville. Also, they will constantly tell you that your app needs updating even though you are on the latest version. I am uninstalling. The last straw was tonight where their main photo of a breaking news story about a crash on the interstate was a picture of a different road covered with snow when we haven’t had decent snow in the last 10 months. They need to at the least try harder and actually give you a real picture of the news supposedly being covered. Save yourself some frustration and go elsewhere for news alerts.

If you are looking to find the most misspelled words or inaccurate stories, this is the app for you. It’s like a third grader writes their stories. The new app constantly sends you to ads and the App Store for garbage you don’t want. Guess they think people in Tennessee are inbred idiots and won’t notice.... Not user friendly. Has same tired stories day after day. Traffic option is joke. Save your time and download any other local channel app. Or really just watch Fox News. These untalented folks just recycle everything the Nationals carry. Straight from the heart and straight to the dumps!
