Notifications

I do not like your IOS app at all like click on one of the notifications and you lose all the others that you wanted to read but now every one of them have been deleted absolutely terrible design!!! It doesn’t do this on all the other Made for IOS phones and tablets, you can still read all of them , maybe I should switch to WPEC and WPTV as theirs don’t do this , but however I’m just wasting my time as y’all never read the comments and never fix what is broken so what’s the sense in writing this to you !!!

Not useful or Relevant...

2022-06-22

I've had WPBF25News for a few years, always hopeful that it would come around and be better for local, breaking and relevant news. Unfortunately, it hasn't happened. Often the stories don't match up, an article is on there for days, obsessed with Dalia (who really cares), lots of ads, videos are a serious pain with 30 second ads and not enough local news. It's a shame. Has potential but they just aren't taking the suggestions seriously. It's finally getting deleted.

So disappointed!

2022-07-23

I have been watching WPBF app for many years since you first started and this year has been the worst for glitches, advertisements and bugs. I like to read the stories and every story has multiple unfinished sentences. It is like reading half a story. I don’t mind a few advertisements but each story has at least 4 plus the additional 15 second video advertisement. Plus the picture shifts, not sure if it wants to show me a picture on the story or an ad. Also, we have multiple phones in my family that are iPhones and Samsung’s so it isn’t just one operating system affected. I hope you are able to fix these items soon because it really isn’t worth our time to watch half the news.

Pitiful forecasting on Irma.

2022-08-24

Had everyone convinced it was going up the East Coast and the forecasting turned into “Oh its there”, “Now its over there”, “no its going there now” Sounded like a bunch of rank amateurs.
Then, when it hit the SW coast you were in Delray Beach sucking up to your rich New Yorkers who took over that whole area and talking about winds there instead of getting down and dirty and covering the “lesser “ base of your network, the people who were getting wacked, you were in Delray and Boca acting like you were “ on the scene” for Irma, effectively abandoning the people in harms way.
A TRULY PATHETIC PERFORMANCE.

Mostly Cons

2022-09-25

The only good thing about WPBF25News is that you do get notifications of current news/events while they are happening. However- you can't find the event once you go into WPBF25News .
You are really only getting a headline once you find the story. Barely even the highlights of the story. And my goodness there are so many spelling and grammar errors it’s like reading a 1st grade paper.
They only want to be the first to report - accuracy and detail is not a factor. Also - they have no sensitivity to victims privacy.
And they don't update the stories or the weather. Way too much old news.

WPBF

2022-10-26

I love WPBF25News. But I hate Indianapolis & want the weather for Stuart Florida so please leave the weather for Stuart Florida as I plan to move there very soon. WHY can’t WPBF25News. leave the weather in Stuart?? I have several Florida news station & they all leave my weather in Stuart Florida???? Do you only acknowledge the good ratings? Other than this problem I love WPBF!!
Since you have ignored my review of keeping my weather in Stuart & can’t keep political references off & are very biased against Trump.(I didn’t vote for either) I am now deleting WPBF App.

I use this as weather app

2022-11-27

When the weather app from WPBF was shut down I was forced to start using WPBF25News for weather. I’m extremely disappointed because it’s never up to date or accurate. If you’re going to offer something that’s important to users it should be the highest quality possible. I wish the old weather app and radar would be rebooted. This is a news app, I understand that, but the weather info is really below sub-standard!

Your News & Weather

2022-12-28

I find that your news & particularly the “Weather” is NOT up to speed with current happenings. Often, several hours & 1/2 day old.
The “weather” report is even more so !!! When I come on to your Web-site in the mornings around 7:00 to 7:30 AM you are giving a “stale” report, as it appears from listening to it, that it was done & recorded the “night before”.
With modern technology your web-site should be on target & very current, not hours old.

It’s ok.

2023-01-29

For a quick reference of the top local news reports it’s fine. The videos are annoying with the 30 sec ads before you can see the 30 sec report. Also, on weekends the reports aren’t updated from Friday night until Monday morning. Then the radar weather map crashes regularly. Besides that, it’s ok.

Happening Now alert pops up BUT

2023-03-02

When a happening now alert pops up one would think WPBF25News would allow us to watch the news. Uh no! On has to watch an ad for 30 seconds before being taken to a video that may or may not consist of the information that is “happening now”. Not only is this annoying, but it makes me look for a different news source,

Adverts cover content with no remission

2023-03-31

The news coverage is good except editorial content is often missing or storyline interrupted by advertising. With multiple feedback from myself and I’m sure others this has not changed. It’s time to decide what road to go down, that of compromised news where advertising is king or keeping advertising in check and realizing why your here in the first place.

It’s getting better

2023-05-02

Fairly comprehensive local news broadcasters are very personable and easy to watch very homey which is effective when dealing with the same audience every day .. one weather person needs to stop modeling on the newscast the blonde lady Shaw I believe her name is, phony smile, needs to calm down some and stop projecting herself as the beauty queen others are excellent .. you asked u got an opinion from a non professional ...

Old weather app

2023-06-02

I too use this only to preview the oncoming weather to plan outdoor chores, and much prefer the old app. It's frustrating to find Mike Lyon’s 5PM report at 6:30AM the following morning when you have already been broadcasting for 2 1/2 hours. As Mike says “our weather predictions can change rapidly”.

Good app, news reporting needs tweaking

2023-07-04

I enjoy WPBF25News , however most of the news Info always Iacks the basics of who, what and where, not enough information given, the weather reports are too short, many stories are repeated and the adds seem longer

Up to the minute News.

2023-08-04

Received Alerts and update on current happenings as they unfold. Can see News live including weather reports or catch up on other happenings by reading the news of the hour or days. Easy to access each News items.

All the news and weather I need

2023-09-05

WPBF app gives me all the news and weather I need in an easy to navigate app. I would prefer more substance to the articles, but realistically I don’t have time to read all the details...so they give me enough info to know what is happening in the community. The weather forecasters are the best! I rely on WPBF for the most accurate weather forecast.

Favorite news app

2023-10-07

They are quick and thorough with the news. The news videos are easy to find and use which is the main reason this is my favorite news app. There are ads, but it is FREE! You would have ads with any free app.

Review

2023-11-07

I’ve Always loved WPBF, as id the main Nres Station I watch, Especially throughput Hurricane season. Their usually correct with their weather reports. Their All Great.
The only one thing that I’d like to see more of, is more of what’s happening here in Palm Beach and surrounding areas. There’s Allot Of reports from Martin county, Fort Pierce...
Other than that, it’s my favorite News Channel.
Thank you kindly, Bonnie from Boca Raton.

Thank you

2023-12-09

I only moved to Florida One year ago and thank you for all the updates and feedback on everything though that goes around and here in Florida it is very informative to me

Love WPBF...Like the app!

2024-01-09

Overall, I like WPBF25News. Helps me to stay on top of the news, along with the top-notch on-air talent! It is sometimes a bit slow, but it is a good source of news for those of us on the Treasure Coast and points south. WPBF is definitely the local leader in broadcast news, by far!

Ads during live events

2024-11-14

My biggest complaint is having to watch ads during LIVE EVENTS such as active shooters or the governor or law enforcement speaking on live events. I can ignore them when watching previously recorded videos but LIVE EVENTS are too IMPORTANT. What if someone’s family member is in the area? Skip the ad & get us to what’s going on. I don’t want to miss what’s being said, it makes me frantic.

It’s improving

2024-11-14

I like that I receive breaking news, usually several throughout the day. However, I don’t usually get to open each one as they come in. When I do go to open one, it doesn’t always go to the right story and I have a hard time finding the story I am interested in. The ads were particularly annoying. And they were loud. Inappropriate in some settings, so I would ignore the alerts. I almost deleted WPBF25News . The last few times I have opened WPBF25News - no loud & annoying ads. It’s still a bit sketchy on getting to the right story, but WPBF25News has definitely improved.

Love My WPBF Local News App!!

2024-11-14

It keeps me informed and that’s what I love about WPBF25News! Breaking news anywhere I go! The weather reports too! And I just love all our news casters on this news channel Thank You So Much for keeping me informed on all the news And the local weather reports it’s so much easier to know the weather and how to plan your day!!

Oh boy, a negative comment. I'm a loyal wpbf news watcher. But perhaps Caroline Taplett should not be your spokesperson on TV. Her face or rather expression always looks sad and depressing. You know today she was being thankful with sadness on her face. She looks like she is sharing a tragedy everytime time I see her. I know she holds a high office in company, maybe if she just shares text instead of video. The news reporters know how to express themselves with being serious or express good news. She is just not effective in her statements

The translator (deaf) needs to be seen. During the press conference on the building collapsed this lady was hardly visible. The camera was totally focus on the politicians face. By the way next time you elect one of these politicians make sure they speak proper Spanish
