Only news I watch
Too many adds
Too many adds
Keeping on top of Current Events is a priority.
I read your news articles daily. They are well written. Keeping up on events around Pittsburg and current events in other areas of United States is my top priority. Also World Events are important to keep up with. I also enjoy hearing about my Pittsburgh Teams, Steelers, Penguins and the Pirates! Win or loose they be are my favorites! It is also nice to keep track of entertainment events around Pittsburgh. The only problem I have with all stations is the lack of news on Iran regarding our troops. I am not happy with the fact that our young people are over there in danger ‼️
Make it make sense
Why sent out a headline for an article that never shows up? Why is it so hard to navigate? Why are there so many ads? Why don’t you make it easy to follow up on stories?
My feedback on the WPXI app
Many times I get very frustrated with navigating through the WPXI app(and sincerely, the website) . It is hard to find information that you are looking for even if it aired that day. A lot of times the anchor woman or anchorman will say that there’s more information on the website and it is absolutely hard to find. You really have to go down a rabbit hole and it’s frustrating. I would like to be able to access Clark Howard information and (information that comes on at 5 and 6 AM in the morning that helps people save money) at any time of day. There’s all these clips of negative news but something that could be helpful to someone is next to an accessible. I just filled it. A person should be able to find whatever they just saw on TV for at least a few days. Thanks for taking my feedback.
Finally
I love channel 11 news teams. They ask common sense questions trying to get the truth no matter what! They have always tried to be aware of the truth and hard facts when assigned to a case and I appreciate that.
Trump
You people are too liberal. You’re disgusting and make me sick.
Stories don’t show
When I get a highlight of a story in my phone feed, I click on it and it never opens up.
Nope
The articles are old and not “new”s. They are also short, not detailed and sometimes vague.
Too Many Videos
I would prefer to quietly READ the news in the still early morning without it suddenly blaring from my phone.
Favorite
My first choice watching news is Channel 11. Sure great reporting the truth. Through too!
Wasn't broke...
Used to love the news app. WPXI HAD THE BEST! Then, even though it wasn't broke, you fixed it. It's the worst news app. I want to read not watch WPXI videos that are 80% commercials for WPXI. I expect your reporters to be professional however when you shove them down my throat, I wonder.
Could be better
I appreciate channel 11’s work but do have a couple of criticisms for this app. The first concerns the leading ads when displaying video. The default settings (at least for me) have the sound off and it sometimes is difficult to get the sound on. The answer is to start the news video with sound on and then run the ad after displaying the news content not before the story. Then we have the floating ads in the body of the text that cover over news content. Then we also have frequent examples of the link loading and no type at all displaying. So there’s my review it could be better.
Where is the search field?
Can’t search for specific news !!???
Stories
I don’t like that when an alert comes across my phone and I click the alert that I’m not taken to that story. I have to scroll through the app to find it. And sometimes it’s not worth searching the app so I don’t bother to read the article.
Awesome
Awesome, better than the other 2 Pittsburgh Stations
Review
The app used to be good. Now not so much. Don’t like having to scroll through a ton of ads to finish a news story. Plus gotta to be more news in our region. Do better WPXI. You’re a great station.
Newscasters
Why did they not renew Katherine ammetens contract. We really enjoyed her broadcasts.
I’m sure the app is fine…
However, having to turn off my VPN to use it is a nonstarter. Uninstalling.
Score?!
All i want is the score of the Pirate game and all i get is a bunch of media clips. Just post the score!!!!
Typical news
Twist stories to cause hate
Keeping in touch!
We are Snowbirds now in Florida. Love to be able to keep in touch with things back home in Western Pa!!!
Horrible app
Filled with bugs and clutches. App never ever works for me. When you click on something you want to view it jumps to something unrelated. I have tried re installing it, checked to see if there was any revised versions and found nothing work. I do not recommend downloading the WPXI iPad app or any of there apps.
WPXI Fan
My favorite Pittsburgh network although I would like to know what happened to newscaster Catherine Amenta she was a great loss to WPXI.
Not user friendly.
Not user friendly at all. Every other app. when you swipe back to get to the previous screen, you do. With this app it takes you to the next article. Very frustrating.
Not what it used to be
They don’t update the news. It’s the same stories for 2 days. If you don’t read an article, it stays in your feed for weeks or it randomly shows up for a month. People want breaking news not what they have been hearing about for a month.
Disgruntled viewer
I’m disappointed you didn’t renew Katherine Amenta’s contract. Your Morning News is not the same.
Uninstalling
There are ways to include ads without them being obnoxious and all over the place. I’m scrolling through the news and being bombarded by gambling ads and an image of an elderly person with their finger up their nose?
App
It’s to “busy” Soon as you start, busy top of page , pop ups in middle , ect
Too much
I wanted to mention that of course the ads are horrible and everybody hates them, but you have to make revenue off. I guess somehow I think the problem is is it’s in LA AI generated another becoming offensive now we have Cheech and Chong‘s Gummies to get high with now we have something to s gonna make every woman’s vagina wet. I actually took screenshots of these cause I was going to send them to you. It’s the only channel where you actually get real news, you get a lot of fluff from From KDKA and you get about the same same thing from WTAE because we know the KDKA spending all their money on the radio but they don’t really care about what’s going on but if you wanna know what crime is going on, which is very important to know about anymore it’s you guys it’s the only one I go to. You could really set the bar but really making the app top notch but it’s not. It’s low bar low class same as everybody else.
Fails to load
Why does this do endless spinning on my iPad? None of the other apps do that.
Junk
This app crashes more than drivers on rt 28.
You need an update ASAP
This app, even when not actively open, will play the live stream of the news randomly. This app is very slow, and whenever I click on a notification from a story, it’s impossible to find it in the app. This app needs an update as soon as possible.
App Review
Operating system & functionality are horrible
