4.6 out of 5
Love the news- hate the app

I have an iPhone 12 News10WHECRochesterNY skips and jumps around when scrolling through the story. When you scroll down it skips and brings you 5-10 stories up. I’ve tried deleting News10WHECRochesterNY completely and re downloading it- still the same issue. Looks like I’ll only be using the channel 13 app for now.

Weather coverage

You are my ‘go to’ station for weather coverage! I live in Seneca County 5miles directly across Seneca Lake from Pen Yan - a distance of 5 miles as the ‘crow flies’. As a lifelong resident of Seneca County I depend on the forecast to determine my travel plans for each day. What happens in South County is not always the same weather hitting northern Seneca County due to influence of Lake Ontario. It appears Seneca County is not considered in your coverage area even though you cover all of Wayne County which extends further east than Seneca County! It is annoying to watch the weather map for fronts headed my way from the west when the weather person stands directly over Seneca County! Elevation and Seneca Lake affects our weather and will often ‘divert’ streams of weather coming from the west. It would be nice to be able to see the split in the weather fronts to see the line of snow/rain headed our way. In closing I really like the addition of Stacey Pensgen to your team. She and Rich Canigla give the most consistently accurate weather report for my area!

Not really compatible with Apple TV

I downloaded this to my new Apple TV so that I could stay update on local happenings, especially the weather forecast (since the Weather App for Apple TV is not that great).
Unless I am streaming live (which freezes constantly and then I freezes further into the news cast meaning I miss everything during the time it froze) the only things available are Good Question, Inside the Evidence, NY State Exposed, scholar athlete, Deanna's Discoveries and Small Biz Spotlight.
This needs a way to view the latest forecast video and the latest news broadcast- even if it is not a live stream anymore, say at 7pm.

I used to use your website but it doesn't work well with phones, none of the local stations websites do (nor do the apps). I thought News10WHECRochesterNY would work better with my fast internet on my Apple TV, but am disappointed. Especially since your app is the only local Rochester station available for the Apple TV.

Needs improvement!

Everyday, the 4:00PM has some kind of mistake. Either in pronunciation, switching from one person/story to another…or the weather-woman, Stacy Pensgen, with her double pointing gesture, or hand clasped like she is praying…and worst habit she has is READING the temps from the maps, or reciting the paths a system will take when they are shown on the screen!
WE CAN READ TOOTS!!!!

BUGGY!!

Please update News10WHECRochesterNY! News 10 is my favorite local news source but I can’t use News10WHECRochesterNY anymore because it freezes every time I try to open an article. I’ve tried reinstalling it, nothing works. News10WHECRochesterNY has been buggy for months, but it’s totally unusable now. I get my local news elsewhere now which stinks. Please please fix the bugs!

Good local news, buggy app

Their local news stories are generally well done. However, the newsfeed randomly jumps to the top of the list, which makes News10WHECRochesterNY frustrating to use.

When app

when the notifications pop up on my phone and I click on it, the article isn’t always available. It will take me to the blank live stream. When I go to look for the article it’s not available yet

Review

Sometimes your spelling and or grammar is incorrect this is annoying and makes me question your professionalism.
Also usually when I select the first story of the day it automatically sends me to the video with sound. I have to quickly stop it. I prefer quiet reading as the default.
Otherwise the organization of News10WHECRochesterNY is good and it is still my default local news source.

Less video, please

I wish you didn’t change most of your format to video. Sometimes in the surroundings you’re in you have to be quick and turn the volume down in order to read the article. I’d rather have the option to play video when you want to see it.

Average old guy addicted to staying up to date

The experienced reporters who lead meaningful investigations are the best in the area. Human interest items and timely offerings enhance a dedicated staff but I feel that the over-reaction to a meaningless word flub has robbed us of the best weather person in the area.

Audio issues

I used to like it very much but e few months ago it changed because you can’t read the stories without the audio playing which can be very disruptive.

Great News Source

Love the alerts and breaking news, news up to the minute, check several times a day.

Keith says about channel 10 news app.!

Your stories are up to date, easy to read and your app. is easy to use and on point with everything. I’ve used other ones but this is by far the best in Rochester🙂

Awesome!

Great to able to say channel 10 news and weather anytime when I pick up my phone great job!!!!!

Morning news reporters

Always to the point of the story.
Like 10 day weather forecast.
So that you may be able to plan something or change your plans

Concerned parent

Channel 10 news is a wonderful station it keep you updated on the latest things that are going on and during the school year they keep you updated if schools are closing in a timely fashion I’m never not aware of what’s going on.

Problems

I WANT to like News10WHECRochesterNY more but I have a problem. When I scroll through the news it goes back to the top every 5 seconds. So I never see other stories than the top 4! I have tried turning my phone off. Not sure if it’s my phone or News10WHECRochesterNY . It’s very frustrating to me.

Channel 10 app

I can’t get pass the Next button after it says notify me. So it’s basically a bad and unusable app. I’ve tried it for days & nothing changes so I’m unable to have the channel 10 app. Which now for local news I have to choose another network/channel. What a total bummer.

Annoying features CAN be disabled

With a recent update there were some annoying features added (videos start automatically, alerts). Fortunately, both can be disabled. When News10WHECRochesterNY first starts, there is a little gear icon in the top left corner. Clicking on it gives you options to Customize Alerts and disable Auto-Play Video.

Great app, keeps me in touch with the news

I am a snowbird and having News10WHECRochesterNY on my phone keeps me in touch with what is happening back north.
