I really like this app because I am able to watch on demand and live newscast in select US market. When it first started almost all channels that participated were able to commit to on demand news replay. Now select channels, mainly independent local news networks offer on demand news that were previously air live. Big network channels do not allow their news to be played on demand, that may have changed. The main problem now is that some of these newscast cannot be played back on your television using Google’s Chromecast. I don’t use Apple TV so I can’t tell if they also disable this feature on all TV streaming devices. I like that I don’t have to download every one’s news app as I only want to watch their news live or on demand. It’s a shame that Chromecast users are unable to cast it on their TV.

I downloaded the app, back in 2017, I love all of the news stations on here, such as Fox, 17 in Grand Rapids, Michigan, and WCC,M 13 news here in Grand Rapids, one problem here, I turned the notifications on, but I’m not getting any notifications, but the good thing about this app is that I can add any news station, to my favorites, but I would love to be notified about breaking news in my area, I am in the Grand Rapids Michigan area, I would also love to see Wood TV eight, back on the app, pretty cool thing about the app, is that I can also watch recent news broadcasts, that’s pretty cool, but please fix the notifications, and keep updating more often and keep adding more channels, I’d love to see nine news, Australia, and seven news, Australia, and sky news, but this is a pretty cool app. Keep it up,

I would love this app but for one major annoyance. I don't mind ads, but these ads will pop up right in the middle of an interesting/breaking news segment and are usually the same ones every 2 minutes. I would totally pay to have this app if you could get rid of the annoying pop-up ads and just have them when they normally would break for commercial. Other than that, it's great to see the news from my home state when I can no longer watch it living thousands of miles away.
