Horrible

Alerts are useless
     
by JCo5530 · September 20, 2025

News alerts that come through as push notifications are completely useless. I click on the alert to read the article but there’s never any article. Sometimes it’s a different story altogether, sometimes it’s an unrelated video.

Crashing on iPhone 12
     
by ratcat pasta · November 16, 2023

I never used to have this issue, but the app continues crashing on the iPhone 12 on the weather tab. I always used this app and this ever happened to me. Someone please fix!

Why is sharing still broken?
     
by webhill · December 1, 2023

I do not understand the response from the developers about the broken sharing tool. “Our app is free to use so link recipients can just download the app” is not helpful or inclusive. I want to share stories from the app. Say I want to email a story to a group of people and I send the link. Well, not everyone who reads the email is reading it on a mobile device or even has a mobile device. They get this stupid “app.link” that tries to force them to download the app instead of taking them to the story and it just wastes everyone’s time - mine having sent something they cannot read and theirs trying to figure out how to find the story without the app. There are also people who do not have admin permission to install apps on their devices but want to be able to receive shared nbc news. I mean this is not complicated. Just let users share the actual url of the story like you used to. I am tired of having to exit the app and google the headline and find it on your website and then share it from there. It’s just a very bad user experience. Do better, people.

Something going on with Alerts
     
by Peeps225 · March 14, 2025

Yesterday the app showed I had over 2k alerts, however there were maybe 20. I cleared them just before midnight. Woke up to 9,700 alerts. I know the news cycle is very busy but not THAT busy.

Great New Weather Display

The newest version of the app is available and I have it. It looks fabulous, and the new features are excellent! Thank you.

Unable to see live program 8:30 and 9:30 Saturday 21st
     
by Jeboho · October 21, 2023

Hi, upset because I wanted to watch the program (I’m guessing live) that the station has on Saturday 21st and I couldn’t. Connected in my computer and nothing also. Just old news. Is there something I can do or you guys for me to watch it tomorrow Sunday?

Needs work

The app freezes a lot. It’s frustrating.
