I scrolled down looking at the latest news reports, and I am constantly sent back to news I wasn't interested in. Then after every 30 seconds or so, I am sent to the very top and I have to scroll all the way down to I was. Just to have the feed go all the way to the top after 30 seconds. What a waste of time and WLTX frustrating me. I'll get the news the old fashioned way... i will watch television. Uninstalling this now. UPDATE-it is easier on Roku Streaming.

Just okay (for now) There have been SO MANY typos in the articles in the app lately. It has just been embarrassing. Some are so bad I can't even figure out what whole sentences are supposed to say. For example, "police found car couple blocks from Place." Wait, missing articles, and...what was that last part? I can't explain fully, because some of the errors are that bad! Seriously, journalism is your business! The reporting is good and the stories are good, though. Just check your work WLTX.

The news items are usually timely, concise and relevant. But I am regularly aggravated by the loss of the last line of print of many paragraphs. Similarly, misuse or simple misspelling of words, such as affect and effect, is disappointing in professional news media. Better editing is needed. WLTX is my favorite news app, and I really hate to see these "ragged edges" detract from otherwise good reporting.
