WFSB for Pc

The app is okay. It’s a little clunky, but I really only care about “latest news”, and that’s easy to navigate to and use. this app has great CT news coverage. My huge negative for the app is that it sends what seems like 700 notifications per day and all hours of the night. I know you can turn them off, but it’s a news app - I do want to see a push notification if there’s a breaking news story, or an accident on a major roadway, etc. They do send those types of notifications, but the problem is they also send crap like “Will you need an umbrella tomorrow? Watch the report later!”. Do they really think anyone wants to see that type of push notification? They literally send garbage like that all through the day and night. They also seem to push every news story, including routine articles. I have some national news apps, and they only push something if it’s a huge story. I get maybe one alert every 3 or 4 days from those apps, and it’s for legitimate need-to-know news. The only problem is they are national and of course aren’t going to tell me if there was just a major accident on 95 that has a road closed. this app will, but to be honest, you’ll probably miss it because it will be between a “watch live at 6 to see if fluffy got adopted” and “Find our what one Connecticut resident thinks about the changing leaves. Open the app to learn more”.

Overall the app is good. Its easy to use and the content is laid out under subheadings that are easy to navigate. I especially like the reporters on channel 3 and have grown up watching several of them. Denise D’Ascenzo is my favorite anchor and she feels like a part of the family after all these years! I use to love the morning show - they worked well together and had me laughing & looking forward to my morning cup of coffee - but it is not the same or as enjoyable without Irene. Such a bummer! The part that needs some more work is the live broadcast feature. More often than not I am watching the “Be Right Back” screen and seeing the SAME commercial over and over again. I get that commercials pay for the app but can we at least have a variety? I am really resenting State Farm at this point. A better idea would be just to play the news cast as it is, the whole broadcast with the actual tv commercials being played in real time. Why can that not be done? You’d still get the advertising in and we would not have to sit and look at the blue screen for long periods. Fix that and I will change my review from a 4 star to a 5 star.

I have been using the this app be app with my iPhone and voice over for about two months. I am totally blind and would like to see some improvements in the app. For example, I would like to see a verbal description of weather. Obviously there is no way I can use the weather radar but, I do not see much description of weather Doppler. I know I am only one person but there were many blind people who watch you. There are other things that could use some improvement to. There are many things that don't work properly with voiceover. I'm not trying to complain, I'm just making you aware of things that need to happen. After reading some of the reviews, I also would like to add that I to have a problem accessing live feeds. Sometimes they come up very nicely others they don't. I have a very good Internet connection here and I always use Wi-Fi. For the most part, I do like the app.

I’m only 51 but I was brought up on this app channel 3. I’ve watched thru Hilton (when he almost blew off Mt Washington) and Gayle and the Oprah/Stedman interview. Dennis and Denise, all these yrs (I love to look at 20 yrs ago clips). And..... since I was an adult.... Scot Haney. Lol. I remember saying to my husband that if I wasn’t married, I’d date that Scot Haney. Then everyone told me he was gay.... and oh well... I still loved him all these yrs. (just not in the dating way! Lol) I’ve watched thru 9/11 (when Bruce lost a family member) not to mention challenger disaster and storm Larry and October tornado in Windsor locks. And thru first female governor, not to mention realizing in that time what “cancer” meant. As time has changed and so many people are just watching smart tv, Netflix, and streaming. I cannot give up local tv because I cannot give up this app 3. Thanks for the years and memories
