NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth News App Reviews

Will not use or watch their channel until autoplay issue is fixed.

Loved this app for getting my news and other interesting Dallas info but now with the auto play on videos it is horrible and unusable. Most of the time I use this app I dont want to watch the clip just read it and now I dont have a choice. Fix this and youll have some happy app users.

PLEASE fix this app! This was my favorite news app, but now every story I want to read plays a video and there is no way to turn it off. It does this even on data. Ive moved it to the back page of my phone until there is an update that says no more auto play! New update... puts a mute button in the lower left corner. It will STILL auto play

This USE to be my favorite news app. Not any longer since it auto plays videos which of course uses more data and makes a racket in quiet environments. Even this "update" has auto-play! I wont even open the app anymore because of this feature.

Im surprised this hasnt been fixed by now. Its terribly annoying to click on a story and a loud ad then news story begins to play. You are unable to pause or stop the ad until the news story begins. Please fix as I rely on this app for local news.

Seriously, I cant read the news in bed because of the auto-play feature. It not only plays the videos automatically (each with an ad to watch first) but it also turns up my volume without my permission. I keep my iPad volume muted at night so I wont wake up my husband. Now, every article that has a video, it turns up my volume and I have to wait for the ad to load so I can turn it back off again. Every. Single. Time.

The auto play video sinks this app.

I dont use this app for news anymore because of auto play. I dont want the video killing my data plan while Im out and about! I guess Ill just use WFAAs app instead.

The app used to be great, however it has gotten worse and worse as the updates have come. When you open a story the video automatically plays which is very annoying. Perhaps the most annoying issue is the fact that the app turns your volume up automatically, if you mute your audio and then open a new story... boom your audio is now on.

Love the radar animation and layout! Smooth action, would like more font options though but decent app.

New update shows promise... I havent explored the app much. But, Radar looks good on my iPhone 6s! Loads fast too. Update: still have double audio when switching from portrait to landscape view. Ever thought of hiring a real programmer to fix these issues?

Most of the time nothing actually works. No other way to put it

Freezing, closing, and somehow there is no network connection when on cellular and wifi.

This is the 2nd worst app Ive ever seen! Whoever coded this is by now a wearer of the ring of invisibility. Phone dead. Dudes! Get somebody to code an app worthy of NBC5DFW! Puhhhleez! I could do better than this and I know sh*t about iOS.

Data error every time I open it now.

When you try to read a new story, ads pop up that the only way to get rid of them is to swipe them away. I immediately closed the app and have now deleted this app off of my phone what a bunch of crap! Dont waste your time getting this app it doesnt work very good anyway.

Cant see in landscape. Going back to other.

As soon as landscape didnt work, I stopped using it. Please google responsive design and fix the app. Thanks.

You made a big mistake here. Dont waste your time on this one!!!!
