WMTW News 8 - Portland, Maine 4+

I really like this app. But there seems to be an issue at times with the radar map refresh rate. Sometimes it loads very fast an other times not at all. I remember when using the radar and hitting the play button the map would go back maybe an hour or two. But it’s going back as far as 6 hours or so. This is to much. Why does it go back so far in time. An hour back is just fine. Is there a way to fix this. I use this app a lot. An waiting for the map to catch up from a six hour loop is a pain In The but and a waste of time. please fix. Thanks.

I’m not trying to be rude here but I just read an article about a police chase that ended on I-295 (which it never once said in the article). First it was referred to as the turnpike and then it was referred to as I-290. Twice. The only way I was able to figure out where this actually took place was by them mentioning exit numbers. This is inaccurate information as far as news reporting goes. How is one supposed to take this app seriously like this?

iOS 17.2 and every update since makes the widget have an ugly dark black border. Please fix! Other apps have, you’re perfectly capable of doing so as well. Thank you. Also, if you could make it so that every single push notification from this app does not disappear just because you open the app or click on one of them, that would be fantastic. Really getting sick of that. This is literally the only news app on my phone that does that and it’s infuriating.

Like everything about Channel 8- it’s our ‘go-to’ station so I wanted to use this app exclusively for news.
I find that the blocks used for advertising cut off sentences describing the article however, and I’ve lost information. There is no transition to the next paragraph located under the advertisement. This is very annoying as I don’t know how important that info could have been.
Not sure if it’s the format, or something I could tweak on my iPhone, but I dislike having to access PPH to get the complete version of the story. Fix it please?
