Fails to load

UpNorthLive simply does not work. Each time, it says "Failed to load station data. Try again later". My wife downloaded UpNorthLive and she gets the same message. This has not worked once since we downloaded it. Waste of time.

App will not rotate

UpNorthLive used to rotate between landscape and portrait modes when I turned my iPad now it is stuck on portrait mode and this is very frustrating. If it wasn’t for this issue I would give UpNorthLive a much higher rating it is one of my favorite. I have now started using 9&10 news solely because it is more convenient for old people who want to have their iPads in landscape mode. Please work on fixing this issue

Little local news

UpNorthLive should be called "up north Oregon, Washington, East Coast" every time you open UpNorthLive, you get local news from one of those three areas, never any local northern Michigan news on the homepage, disrespectful to the locals in northern Michigan

Never works anymore

I miss the original app. This new update never seems to display things right. It's a great concept if it worked properly. This is UpNorthLive I always went to for my local news now it always errors out or resets my preferences.

App does not work correctly

Tried to login to my acct to buy a half off eats at boons and it would not login , and when it finally worked I'm hitting the buy button and it will not buy the deal , so I am screwed out of the deal because UpNorthLive did not work

Storage hog

I use UpNorthLive everyday for local news. Updated to 7.12.0. I don't see much difference. HOWEVER, my *big* complaint with UpNorthLive has been ongoing for years. UpNorthLive itself is around 37MB but every time I open articles to read, it keeps adding to my documents and data so that in time UpNorthLive is using over a GB of storage on my phone. I am not able to delete just the docs and data so I have to delete the whole app and reinstall to get it back down to manageable size. I am just reading the articles and not sharing or anything else so I don't know why UpNorthLive is "saving" to docs and data. Hassle.

C-

The news stories are a joke. You have to click on the picture to get more than a one sentence description. By clicking on the picture, it takes you to their website which defeats the purpose of UpNorthLive . If I wanted to go to the website, I would have just went their in the first place. Weather is good as well as the deals. I will be sticking to the 9&10 news app.

Deleted after notifications wouldn't stop

Nice-looking app, but I made the mistake of enabling notifications and then being annoyed by a regular series of "Breaking News" alerts that were nothing like breaking news. So I turned off notifications, and they kept coming. So I force-quit UpNorthLive , and they kept coming. Hoping that deleting UpNorthLive altogether does the trick.

Old news....

I like getting news from the area, but unfortunately the same news stories stay online for days at a time. Each day I’m likely to find only one or two new items per day, and almost never on weekends. Often a waste of my time.

Proofreading desperately needed

If you turn off notifications this is a useful app for local news highlights. However, the writing is very bad. It's replete with basic spelling and grammar errors, poorly structured and sometimes confusing sentences. Makes you question the journalistic accuracy.

Could be better!

Hearing the same commercials repeat over and over is beyond annoying. It’s home screen goes to portrait instead of landscape view. You can’t pause or rewind which is important. Please work on UpNorthLive.

Not terrible

Not a terrible app, but every time a new ad loads, the article jumps to the top. Annoying.

Okay

Would be better if it would quit kicking me back to the top of the page before I am done reading.

Problems

Ever sine UpNorthLive was updated I cannot get into any of the stories & it is getting very frustrating! Please correct this. Thanks Linda

Fine

Wish it would reload the stories and send me back to the top of the page!

App needs a radar loop

App would be better if it had a radar that had a looping time on it instead of just showing one picture

Much better

Yeah! The last update fixed the lock up problem on iPads. The fix was fast and worked like a champ. Well done on solving the mobile app for iPad access.

Great app

Wish I would have had UpNorthLive a long time ago. Great for everything from radar to school closings. Thanks 7&4!

Perfect!

If you're looking for news in Northern Michigan, this is the only app you need. Great reporting, very user friendly, and the daily deals notifications are great!!!!

Working fine now

Thanks for fixing it. Loading as before
