- Provides breaking news alerts about sports.
WAKANews is poorly formatted and lacks the interactive function of other apps. It looks like a beta version which was released before final cleanup. Radar doesn't stream, and it's default is the center of the state instead of your current location. Don't bother. There are too many well done apps for weather to self induce this frustration.
I like the network but WAKANews is really bad. It hasn't updated any news at all since July. I'm sending it to the cloud.
Still shows articles from July 24 2015 and today is August 31 2015.
If you want lots of breaking news alerts about sports then WAKANews has them. If you do not, I couldn't find any settings to allow you to stop just them.
I appreciate that some people want alerts for sports but many do not, just like I want stock market alerts that others would not. Please either update WAKANews to allow setting the category of alerts or limit them to general news and not sports. Thanks.
