Ratings and Reviews
Lacking
This so called “ Somerset “ Live app is unbelievably disappointing!! Embellished stories, irrelevant out of county news ,& a mind twisting amount of annoying Ads. Traffic news is it’s only redeeming feature.
The worst kind of sensationalism
I added this app in the hope of news in Somerset. Instead I get the worst kind of sensational journalism. This has now reached the point where I have to call a halt and delete Somerset Live from my phone. Otherwise I fear for my mental health as obviously I live in a county plagued by heatwaves ( banner headline last week - it is actually dull and wet), continual horrific accidents ( that get cleared in an hour or so) and terrible crime. Enough! The level of negativity simply jeopardises everyone’s happiness. So goodbye Somerset Live and hopefully you will one day find something happy somewhere.
Adverts app
Mostly adverts, some interesting story's with several adds breaking up paragraphs which degrades the overall quality of the app and the writers content.
Accept ads are needed to keep it free but its ads over content, driving the outcome that is a money maker not a serious news/information outlet
If you want local news would look for the local press rather than this ad lead app. Now deleted from my phone!
