Laura huckab

COVID-19
We are all aware d this virus but most of your news are updates and tracking of this virus.. Do you have anything else to report on? All you are doing is spreading fear!

You all are great❤️
Review
Your news has become so slanted to the left that I can’t trust any of it. Your narrative always has an agenda to word the news to the negative of the truth. Obviously you hate Trump so much that you don’t care about our nation anymore only Hate truth because of your biases.
Zip code problem
I really like the app but it often fails to save my home zip code. Consequently when I open it up, I get a message of “invalid zip code” which is very frustrating. Other than that it’s a great app.
Old news
News is not updated often enough and headline stories have Very little depth.
Nowcast terrible
Anytime I log on to watch the love news on my phone, I first have to watch a commercial. After that the news MIGHT come on or it might not. I’ve left my phone on while getting ready in the morning and 9 out of 10 times, the news will never come back from commercial and I’ll be left staring at a black screen. Super frustrating. I’d rather watch it live on FaceBook if they gave me the option.
Reliable News and Weather
Our go-to station tor accurate news and weather reports, presented professionally.
Bad app
Not a news app it’s a football app.theres no news just 7 storylines about football.not everyone is a football fan but 40/29 can’t seem to figure out that fact.theres way better news and weather apps.delete this app and get one that delivers new stories that matter not who got beat in what football game
Good local news
Up-to-date, timely I wish there were better spell check and grammar checks in place I think it’s embarrassing and challenges your validity when it appears that no one even cares to look for errors I am loyal to 40/29, so I hope I see an improvement!
Works when it wants to
I’ll get a notification of an article I want to read. Click notification to open that article and the app freezes. Close app and restart. Article is no where to be found. Search for the exact headline of the article and app is like “I don’t know what you’re talking about so here are these other articles from last year with none of the words you just searched for.” Google it and find what I’m looking for on a completely different website.
40/20 news
A lot of the articles are incomplete, I can read a article and I get close to the end and , nothing, it might end in in the middle of the sentence, no video most of the times. The weather section is good , though. It could be my phone, I don’t know.
Snow
They give weather reports to keep you safe thanks channel 40 for your weather reports. channel 40/29 news is on point the onlything I don’t like if something happens they just keep taking about it I mean like the tornados in nwa or the guy at the hospital it’s old news no reason to just keep on with the same old stuff but other then good job
40/29 Phone App
The phone app is garbage. Needs to be seriously updated. The weather specifically. The news and other things are fine, but the weather app is garbage. I can be watching Darby live on TV while it’s pouring down rain, but the weather app says 0% for rain chances. This stuff happens all the time. The weather app is trash and needs to be updated.
Local News
I like seeing the local and national news on this app. I do have one thing that really bothers me though. I can be reading an article and it will just drop the end of the story. It happens ALL the time. That is frustrating. I’m glad I can stay up with what is going on in our area even though I may not see the end of the article.
Video auto plays plays with every article
It’s nice to have a local news app with alerts. The reason I rated it low is the video that auto plays with every article. I would rather read a breaking news article without the whole room knowing.
News and weather
They just aren’t updated often enough!
Doug Eddie
Why does the App continually crash and set there and buffer. I’ve had to delete and reinstall probably a dozen times.
Update
App has not worked since the latest iOS
Pictures cut off stories!
I find most of the stories have one or more sentences cut off because of a pic or advertisement put in the wrong place. Very frustrating to say the least!
Not very useful
For a local news APP, I do not find this one very helpful. I’ve lived in various parts of the country and this one does not measure up. Not really a news app. Most are just “stories” that are more human interest. Was hoping this would be a place I could come to for current news in the area. You would be better off getting your “news” elsewhere
Truck driver
It’s a good app.
Almost nonfunctioning app
I’m lucky if I can get this app to open and load and if I do, it takes forever
Rating review
I prefer 40/29 in all news/weather/sports over other broadcast! In this crisis all stations are falling behind in breaking news notifications for Gov Hutchinson & Whitehouse updates. By the time the alert comes through the live secession are already in progress. I still highly respect & prefer 49/29!
Annoying videos
It’s incredibly annoying that videos automatically play when I try to open a story. When I get a breaking news alert I used to be able to click it and quickly read the story. Now if I do that I am immediately met with a blaring ad video automatically playing, which is not always appropriate for my environment.
Bruce Street
“The Girls” on the morning show are all bright shining stars-not to mention very pretty! They absolutely put on a top notch news cast. Thanks 40/29 for having the insight to team up these ladies!!!
Wrong on weather
Almost always wrong on weather
Liberal viewpoint only
Seems the app just simply reposts liberal news outlets articles and rarely any from the conservative side. Arkansas is a conservative state although most media personnel is liberal.
Get ready weather
Thank you so much for get ready weather.
Great app for looking at advertisements
It’s impossible to read anything on the app without tons of pop up ads
40/29
The weather app is ok. The news is basically a miniature version of CNN.
Review
I don’t watch any other weather or news . Your the best .
Political Bias
This agency is not a political neutral channel. Be prepared to digest their views.
Incomplete articles/sentences
For some unknown and annoying reasons, a sentence will stop midway especially if there is an advertisement you have to scroll past. Many times the whole final section(s) of the article will be cut off. It makes trying to read any news on this app frustrating. I no longer try 90% of the time and just read the headlines. The other 10% of the time, I try in hopes that they have finally read their own articles on the app and figured out this is an issue. But since I am writing this today - nope!
Best in NW Arkansas
I am assured I get complete news coverage on the current events of the day and The Weather Team is so dedicated , I won’t go to bed until I hear the weather. You guys are top notch!
