WXYZ 7 Action News Detroit Reviews

All the news right in my palm, I catch up with WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit more then I just sit and watch the live news channel, mostly cause I’m not always home to watch tv, and I get the notifications for the important things, the highlights, although I’ve lost complete interest, faith, and all in channel 7 WXYZ Detroit cause I’ve tried reaching out to them in need of help via Facebook they read it but said not a thing at all, so they aren’t there for people the way you’d like for them to be... (I bet if I win my case they’ll want to interview me then but I’ll refuse it completely and give it to some other station) but WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit has been pretty much helpful mostly till I try to open the story on from the notification and it don’t take me to it like it’s should then you try searching and scrolling and you never find it even when it’s something that just happened and you try opening it right away, that needs to be fixed. So this is me giving those stars to WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit and no credit to channel 7 news.

While we have always loved the morning news, weather, and traffic from Channel 7, when we use WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit , there is too much down time. When you try to open the "live" news, get ready to endure a 30 second commercial and maybe you get the live feed. There is no feed during the commercial breaks unless it is a local vendor. You may wait almost fifteen minutes until any news comes back. Try another station, you may have better luck.

Thanks WXYZ for helping realize how much news one gets during a broadcast compared to how much time is spent on commercials.

App has some good news relevant to the area and even nationally. But I question some stories they post as real “news”.
Maybe it’s a slow news day so they put in filler junk but I’d rather not see a story about a sex worker in Ann Arbor getting stuck in a chair. And when did “sex” work become legal in Michigan?????
Our values and morals are clearly heading in the wrong direction and the news isn’t helping by reporting on garbage like this.

Since my work & life schedule usually keeps me from watching the news when it broadcasts, I rely on WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit to keep me posted as to the highlights. I also like that I can adjust the weather forecast for my actual zip since I live just outside of Metro. Keep up the good stuff, WXYZ! Almont Twp., MI. 💕

I switched from the other well known news channel app . Their news stories were more like an editorial with the stations preferences obvious. I just want the straight story/news. I’ll make my own decisions after reading. Thank you!

Thank you guys for finally adding a location option for While Using! I had it disabled because it drained my battery because it was always or never. It's not really necessary to use it unless WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit is open, so thanks for realizing that!

This is great app and it is very helpful for snow day alerts. It gives me great traffic and weather updates to help with my daily life. The only thing keeping it from five star is that you can only save one school for snow day alerts as I work in a different school district than my kid. This makes things a bit harder in the winter. Otherwise great app!

I grew up in Detroit and watched Channel 7 News for years. 30 years ago I relocated to Florida and missed al of the Detroit products: Vernors, Faygo, Better Made, Free Press and (of course) Channel 7. Now, with the help of the Channel 7 News App, I can get a touch of home.

Thanks Channel 7!

Love WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit! You can access your News anytime anywhere, gives you up to the minute reports. News you need to know keeping you well informed!!

My husband and I have always been faithful followers of channel 7, however the bias that is overwhelming against our President is very disappointing all u report is the negative nothing about all the good his is doing. What a shame that the disrespect for our President is so obvious It is very clear that channel 7 and the news casters make it very clear that they are disappointed with the countries choice for the commander and chief of our country. Shame on all of you. Bob & Pat Fielding Howell, Michigan

WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit is very convenient for checking school closings, it even sends a push notification for districts you select! However, the radar doesn’t seem to be optimized for iPhone X, unlike the rest of WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit . Other than that, works great!

I use WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit every day to check the weather first thing in the morning. I use it throughout the day to keep me updated on current events. All in all I really like it, no problems thus far.

For someone reason I like channel 7 always have since I was a kid and I’m only 26 now .I watched Dave Rexroth when I was younger and wanted to become a meteorologist and so on just great people keeps me watching !

They are stealing possible private. I could not believe it but when I upgraded to iOS 14 it doesn’t prevent but now warns when they steal your data. You can replicate this go to notes, type something like “this is my fake password” and select it and copy it, then launch the WXYZ app and you will see message “WXYZ pasted from Notes” stating they just stole what you copied.

I use it for keeping up on the news and it saved me a few too many times from being stuck in the cold Michigan.

Only station I watch for news for a very long time. My favorite news station

Unlike the 2 other local station apps channel 7 has news and weather in one app. No hassle and ease of use make a 5 star revue for this user!

No matter where we travel, we know what’s happening in our neighborhood! Weather in Michigan can change in an instant, and with the WXYZ app we’re informed!

We enjoy your app very much! We no longer live in the greater Detroit area but we like to keep up with things going on.

After years of steady and continuous improvement. You have taken the big step backwards to a one star rating because of your video apps. There is no way to select an option of playing them.

I am an early riser, and the last thing I want is the video Add playing at 4 AM while I am trying to review the news without disturbing my family.

Shame on you. For being so obtrusive.

We spend our winters in Florida and the channel 7 news app goes right with us. I can know what's going on at home, both with the weather and news - it is the best news app around and I always know what's happening at home! I do wish the videos aren’t at the beginning as there’s times I just want to read the article.
They have started sending notifications for a special update/story and then when you open WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit , there’s nothing there on that “important” notification !!

This is my “go to” for local news & weather for Detroit & Oakland County. WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit helps with information about road construction & conditions as well as brief news reports. A lot of human interest stories to. I haven’t had any issues with IOS X compatibility.

Great app. Dedicated viewer. Always able to stay up to date to the minute with all news.

When I'm home I always watch channel 7 and WXYZ7ActionNewsDetroit is a great tool to keep it with me when I'm away. I appreciate the job everybody does in the channel 7 family.

Good web site, would be better if select news stories did not auto start the video portion. There are times I want to just read the news not listen to the story.
