Channel 8 review

I love Channel right. Their news media tries to stay neutral as much as possible and their weather is always on a positive look even if it’s gonna be bad. Sam is the best weatherman of all the networks. Very positive and moves around the screen so you can see the whole Ct. The others including one of your stand on the south eastern side of the State so you can’t see the Newlondon Norwich area . But that is the only negative thing I have to say about the station. Dennis House will be a definite improvement in the overall presentation. Keep up the good work.

Swing and a miss

I had to rate according to how quickly it becomes frustrating after opening the app. I get several notifications per day of breaking news stories, and that’s really the most helpful feature of the app. However, when you try to open one of the notifications to read more, the article isn’t there. It just brings you to some video stream that is slow to buffer, and is not talking about the news story it just notified you of. Looking forward to an update that makes the end user experience more enjoyable. If you folks there at 8 paid some company top dollar to create this for you, you were ripped off. If designing this app was your kid’s project in computer class, then it was a great start, kudos to the little ones because its was better than I could make, but it still needs more tweaking to be professional.

Weather videos don’t always work

The only trouble I’ve ever had with this app is the weather videos. Sometimes an incorrect video is posted, such as one from a different day, or there is no sound. These issues seem to happen less than they used to, or maybe I’ve just gotten used to it?
However now if I click on the ‘weather’ tab, it closes the app. Not an issues if I click on the main weather headline on the front page, only if I click on the tab on the bottom. Otherwise we like this app and channel, just a few fixes would be great.
