WANE 15 Reviews

This used to be the only channel I watched and listened to. However , in the current t political and societal issues over the last year - WANE 15 has easily made it evident they are swayed to one side. Professional journalism should reveal news and be completely UNBIASED. When it is clear to even a child that a newscast is representative of a certain political view - is racially charging situations within a community by their method of reporting and helping create divisive mentality within a town they should be uniting - they are worse off than the politicians they criticize or the criminals they highlight.

Stop mentioning color only when it’s white on black and start referring to people as people. You don’t report stories saying a black man did this to a white man or another black man - but you most certainly do say color when it’s a white man.

Stop referring to our President of the United States as if he is a fool and invalid ...... stop showing such unity to the left.

Stop allowing a drive for popularity to motivate your journalism - be real , not biased. Be truthful - not editors making stories that speak to hearts of the misled and misinformed.

Neutral - be neutral !!!! And maybe - just maybe people will begin trusting the media again.

Until y’allDisrespected had no nothing good to say about our President of the United States you wondering how your station is doing who really cares,
So convenient to know that you guys don’t care about your grandchildren or maybe graduate and grandchildren when I was in a socialist country thank you news 15

I like WANE15 and would give it a higher mark but I hate how when you tap on a article to read and the video automatically starts playing... so irritating. I want to read the article not watch the video, if I want to watch the video I want the option of hitting play, not having it start playing automatically.

The worst app on my phone. Never know if it will open. Have to delete it and reload continually...at least once every two weeks; sometimes every other day; occasionally multiple times in one day. This is the only app out of 100+ that has this problem so I know it’s not my phone. Add this to the live broadcast problems with Wane TV and the conclusion is simple. They have one of the best broadcast teams, but are stuck with a very mediocre tech department.

Sure they have all the latest news and all, but WANE15 keeps freezing. When I scroll from Crime to World News it doesn’t always respond. Sometimes I am halfway through an article and it literally just goes blank. I love watching this station on tv, but clearly they don’t care about WANE15. It’s the only app on my phone that I’ve had problems with to this extent.

Love watching WANE15 for weather forecasts but in the last 2-3 months, the videos have been playing zoomed in. There is no way the user can fix this so you end us seeing less than half of the screen and they have become useless. Please fix this and then it will go back to 5 stars.

Ads that launch at full volume even when phone is in silent mode ruin WANE15 for me. I no longer use this for my news because it has been disruptive more than enough times.

TV news is wonderful, however the old mobile app was so much better than the new one, The layout was better and it was easier to navigate.
It was also more visually appealing.
However I have noticed some changes to the new app that are headed in the right direction.

Please remove the feature of automatically playing videos when you click on an article! If I want to watch a video, I’ll click on it myself! Instead I have to hear an annoying 15 second add before I can pause the video just so I can continue reading. It didn’t used to be like this...PLEASE FIX!!

Getting frustrated with the pop up ads that get in the way when trying to watch the weather forecasts. It’s not bad enough that they pop up but then you have to wait a certain amount of time to close some of them out. By then you’ve missed part of the forecast and have to rewind it to go back. And yes, I have blocked pop-ups on my phone but I still get these on the WANE 15 app. Please lose the stupid pop up ads 😠

The previous format had you swiping left or right to move to the next story. Now I have to wait longer between stories when scrolling downward and have to skip over “suggested stories” that I might have already read.

I love the WANE app WHEN IT WORKS!!! I’ll try to click on a notification and it freezes instantly, I try to shut down WANE15 and go straight through WANE15 it freezes. I can’t look at anything, and it drives me insane. Please fix it

I do not mind advertisements, but when they are formatted to appear as news rather than ads, they become "fake news". In addition, the slow loading of inline ads interferes with reading of the news article because the page keeps jumping around; you a fixed container size to avoid jumping due to resizing as the content loads.

The opening ad requires one of the more extreme actions for dismissing. Very annoying. Besides being inconvenient, it delays getting emergency weather updates.

5 star for the news. 1 star for the poorly done ad experience.

Don’t like sound automatically starting, would rather just read the news and click on it for the comments if I want to hear them.

I understand that you’re in love with a Cheeto, but leave your political views to social media, not on a review of a news app. It’s not appropriate and quite frankly it’s totally Kindergarten.
As far as WANE15 , I would love to give it five stars, but it glitches out too often and who ever has the responsibility for proofreading what gets posted does a horrible job and the misspelling or grammatical errors make you appear very unprofessional. Other than that, I appreciate the local view of events around us, and feel that political bias is not a subject matter that I would pin on WANE.

I am amazed at the incredible team that is a part of Wane TV. I find them to be personable, humorous, and serious when speaking to the heart when appropriate. True professionals.
I love the diversity on the team as well.

I have been an avid 15 watcher for many many years
Always trying to provide the latest and most current updates for the viewing audience
Thank you for that and keep it going

Your app would be pretty decent if you updated MUCH MORE FREQUENTLY!! Sometimes on the weekends, it is over 24 hours behind. Also, how about updating when there is “breaking news”.

You all do a wonderful job providing information that’s needed and even some so needed but welcomed. Thanks for all you do

WANE15 has been working great until they introduced ad “articles” in-line with the news. Now it reloads while scrolling so you can only see 5 or 6 articles, then right back to the top.

I love staying tune to all things Fort Wayne but the swipe up ad every time I log on is extremely annoying. Coverage on wrecks in the news feed is equally disturbing. Is there nothing else to post about?

I really like WANE15, except for the fact that it has started crashing all the time!

You would think all we had were football teams in Fort Wayne. Cover the others sports equally.

This is where we always go to get our news!

Like having notifications on my cell phone.

I get to know what’s happening in area where my relatives reside. But would like more news from Peru Indiana also

I love WANE15 and 15 news on the TV, I like the breaking news when sent to my phone it is very informing keep up the GREAT WORK!

I’m wintering in Florida and I love to get the news from Ft. Wayne and around the area. The school closings and weather are great too. THANKS FOR ALL THE INFO. Keep up the good work!!!!!!!
