I liked the old one where you can just see the headlines and choose want I want to look into. It also gave me Delco news. It was easier to navigate. I have no idea how to look up school closings or anything else in particular that I'm looking for without scrolling through EVERYTHING!!! This is the first time I visited the app since I wrote my post. I think it's time to uninstall it. The change was a downgrade in my opinion, very disappointed.

No problems with the 'Watch LIVE' option. When you attempt to click on the rebroadcast videos, you get three(3) stories (videos) in and, the third story (video) just repeats as if on a loop. The former format would play the rebroadcast videos in chronological order by date & time. PLEASE go back to the former rebroadcast video format or, at the very least; STOP (fix) the looping of specific videos. Thank you in advance. Avid Actin News viewer from birth. Edited

Until the latest update loved this app especially for streaming the morning news. Now it's a hassle to try to even watch the live stream. There is no option to watch in full screen, turn the phone horizontal and the two large gray bars for the app make it impossible to see what is being shown. Update: as previously stated there is no button for full screen. I would be happy to include screen shots in an email. Edited

To enable full screen, please click on the actual stream title (the white part with text) that says "24/7 Live Stream". Then, tap on the actual video and additional video controls should show up. The button with four arrows is full screen. If you'd like to view full screen in landscape, you will need to remove the orientation lock on your phone.

I have not updated my rating, just the review. This app is sluggish, and this latest update to it took away the ability to stay in dark mode in the notification bar, plus it took away the timing of the notification. I don't know if a storm is hitting now or it had hit while I was asleep. It also has sign in issues. I used to stay logged in, but now I have to sign in every time. I love Action News, but this app isn't the quality I expect from them.

Used to enjoy this app. The app stalls. Then an error message appears with close, wait or another option I don't pay attention to. I usually select wait. It's beyond annoying to keep closing the app and reopening as I have several times. I rarely watch the videos as I prefer to read it. I can choose what stories I'm interested in. Whatever you did when you updated, undo it!
