Transition: CBS 8 App Reviews

47 add

News

I like having local news at my disposal but--the spelling is shockingly poor--dont they proof read the stories? Frequent mistakes pop up in each article and actually slow my reading down- gives it a very juvenile feel and therefore a little untrustworthy!

Does not open

I installed the update and now the app does not open and crashes

Love it

Works great for me. Love the new look.

Moving ads confusion

The new app looks great until the ads start jumping around. Youre just beginning to read a headline and suddenly it moves and theres an ad instead. Scroll to find the headline you were reading and just when you settle on it, it all moves again. Made me seasick. Deleted the app.

Had to re-load app

Had to uninstall and reinstall the app, but now it works. Doesnt look half bad.

New look ok

I like the new look but I liked the old one better because it listed what time something posted. I dont have much time to read the news and dont want yo waist time clicking on something I already read.

Great News App

I this is one of the better news apps for the San Diego area.

Enjoying the local news in Thailand

I like the new look over the old one. There seems to be more information available with one or two taps. And there seems to be more stories available overall. Its my preferred San Diego news app to be able to follow San Diego news from here in Thailand.

Mandatory update so they can push ads on you!!!

So you cant use the previous version. They make you update the app. Then when you expect a better app, they have an app filled with ads. Good job news 8!

Video Stalls

Most of the time, news videos stall after playing about one second. At that point they cannot be restarted. Quite frustrating to try to use.

Ads are getting worse

This app has a super annoying splash ad before they show any news. You have to close it to see the news. The display is bad and usually outdated and stale. Sports is a day old!!

Dont love it...

Some days there are no new stories, and when I do actually get a news alert on my phone, the story is nowhere to be found on the app.

Commercial in front of EVERY VIDEO

Could be a lot better, way too many video adds, more ads than stories, really a junk pile.

Much better

Theyve come a long way w/ the latest version. Better layout and user experience.

Enjoy this channel

I have enjoyed Channel for at least 45 years. I watch it when I am in San Diego and get updates on my phone now that I am in Cheyenne, WY.

New version pops up ads

Hate the fact when you launch you immediately get an ad. Not worth it Ill use another San Diego news app.

Quick and easy to use

New to SD. So far the app is just fine.

Very informative

Kids hog up the tvs now a days so this is the next best thing.

Does what it says

I enjoy getting notifications from this app. I have no issues with it so far. Great to use when youre out and about.

Waste of time

Not sure what happened to what was once a good news app. All it seems to be now is old news, even weeks/months old stories still on the home page. Time for a makeover.
