Pretty Good App - Use every day

As a news reader, it's not too bad. Occasionally the station is a bit slow to update the news stories. Kind of tedious to sit through the same ads to watch the news segments. Nonetheless, I do use it everyday to scan the local news.

New version: It's an improvement. Easier to use. Wondered what "DVM" stood for. Guess WHAG changed its FCC letters.

Newer version: Nice improvements, sometimes the text to a story is very small and can’t be changed. Just a minor ding. I use this every day.

Best news in 4 state area

Panhandle residents seem to be in another world from the rest of WV, but we can depend on getting the news from DVM that affects us. You can learn what is happening in the area, nation, and the world.

Nice News Format

I've only had DCNewsNow for a few weeks, but so far it seems to be a nice app.

I receive news updates as necessary and this appears to be how cable television is headed.

Latest update looses WV news

The latest update is a drastic change that removes most of WV news. News is nuch harder to find and read. I will be removing DCNewsNow!


By


Easy to use, lots of features

Nice layout so it is easy to find what you are looking for. Usually updated several times a day, even has school closings timely. I appreciate that I can read the story or watch the video from the newscast. Nice variety of headlines provided. The traffic related stories are very helpful.

Frustrating :-/

I like the fact that Your 4 State can notify me when dangerous weather is approaching, but I'm finding many of the PUSH notifications extremely frustrating. I get a partial message when I turn on the phone, something like "Police are investigating an incident at Valley Mall. The mall is on lockdown because..." And when I click on it, it opens my 4 State app -- where there is absolutely no mention of the incident, even under the "breaking news" column. This has happened over and over again. Since the only reason I downloaded DCNewsNow in the first place was for late-breaking news, this is disappointing to me.

Appreciation You Folks!

Just want to say thank you for all of your programming and your support of our local communities!
Also appreciate all of the new newscasters/weathercasters you mentor and help to train. I enjoy watching them grow and transform in their abilities and positions.

Keep up the great things you do!

Good, not great

I love having local news at my fingertips, yet I realize I don't always have the top stories. After getting a pop-up of "breaking news," swiping the pop-up, takes you to DCNewsNow . Without the breaking news. No mention of that breaking news at all. Usually takes a few hours, after the alert, to have the breaking news (no longer breaking) post on the news feed.

Won't open

DCNewsNow suddenly stopped working for a few days now. Get a message that I have no internet connection when on wifi and LTE. I deleted and reloaded with no change, still get message and won't open.

Prompt Local News

Weather

Hello,
Good evening just a quick note I wish the interns would take a little more environmental training from Lou S.,here's why,statistically "forecasting and/or forecasting is a little more than a "guess" as one said,here's some advice,,before going on the TV and "forecasting"? At least humer us and walk outside.

Informative

Not sure how or why but the organization of the content isn't intuitive. Sorry that's not helpful. Just something about it. Overall DCNewsNow is very good at getting information to the user though.

Thank you

NBC 25 has been around our community for as long as I can remember broadcasting important local news. I was really happy when they continued in the digital age with your4 state.
Thank you
