WNEP The News Station 4+

I just love WNEP and all of the people who work there. You all complete my day. Always look forward to all of the antics and the great reporting. I have to say that Jeremy is a great addition to the team. I love his way of reporting the weather and what a Snappy Dresser. I love all of his outfits and look forward to seeing a lot more. He has excellent taste in clothing. Keep up the great work everyone ! WNEP, the only news station that I watch and depend on for reporting the news. Would love to meet Ranger someday and Roco. Hope to meet some of you at the Bloomsburg Fair. Have a great day everyone !

The new app is difficult and confusing. It’s been developed for advertisers and not news, content, weather or the end user. Plus the splash screen is truly annoying. I already know what app I’ve opened and I know if it’s morning, afternoon, or night. When I open an app, especially a news app, I want the data I’m looking for as quickly as possible. Just removing the splash screen animation and having the app open straight to the news would improve this app to three stars for me.

For now I’ve gone back a decade and just put a bookmark to the webpage on my phone instead of using the app. The WTSP app from 10 news out of Tampa was another unfortunate casualty of this design. The old WNEP app was very good, albeit outdated, it functioned well and did the job of presenting the user with data phenomenally.

Plus why are you only allowed five saved locations for weather? I used the old WNEP app all over the country and if traveling I could store locations I travel to frequently. But the new app is limited to only five. It doesn’t even make logical sense. Why would you want someone to use another app that meets their needs and purposely cost yourselves ad revenue? I mean based on the barrage of ads on the new app you make it obvious that they are a major part of WNEP’s future.

I didn’t like the app at first, but, with using it more I am finding more options particularly with the weather section. I am still getting used to the app and liking it the more I use it. I like the one app verses two apps. However, I have an issue with my location button, it doesn’t let me display my location marker. I get a pop up banner that says turn on location services, which I have turned on. I don’t like that the Moosic location can not be deleted. Also, I get notifications other than the weather even though I just have the weather switch turn on. I’d give the app a 5 if these issues were resolved.
