Great source for news & weather! I've had this app for a while including on other phones, but since I switched over to this phone about a month ago I haven't been able to receive notifications from WCVB Channel 5. I've looked at the app settings & notifications etc on my phone but I'm not seeing anything that is blocking the phone from allowing notifications & other things to come through. I like this app, as I don't have to always watch the news and you can read the news instead of watching it.

Great app, but the Widget is no longer working. It stopped working about 1 month ago. The Widget is what I refer to, most often, to view Updates on "Breaking News" (Local & National) , so it's been extremely aggravating that, it's stopped working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled, both the widget & the app numerous times, but the Widget still doesn't work. Please fix ASAP and I'll change my rating to 5 stars.

Great news app timely alerts on area specific weather and local news. Weather is accurate down to the minute with alerts for bad weather. Allows you to choose the updates you wish to receive. Has a built-in forecast, current conditions and radar past and future. I use this app daily. An Informative New England news and weather app. Channel 5 Rocks.
