I wish this app would be current with the written forecast AND the video forecast updating. When you click on the weather tab, you still get Bill Meck’s forecast from the night before, rather than Tom’s more current forecast. Same thing on the weekends, with Jill. So I search on Facebook for their pages to get the up to date forecast, text and video. Other networks in Lexington can get this right. Why not Lex 18?
The app this replaced was much better and to add insult to injury they now ask you to subscribe, if you wish to eliminate the advertising. LEX18 has been my go to news source for a long time because their app was superior to both 27 and 36. This “upgrade” puts them on par with the others. If they must ask for subscriptions, fine, but they should do it on the previous app. This was a move in the wrong direction.
Doesn’t update news or weather throughout the day or even from day-to-day. Very annoying. Radar also doesn’t work very often. Usually I use the app for our local ABC station to get updated news and the Weater Channel.
If you want race baiting news with no research before they do a story then this is your app. Worst news source possible! This is literally the epitome of fake news! I wish I could give “0” stars.
The top stories no longer refresh as of the 17th of January. You have to go to the sections tab and click on local news to find out what’s going on in or around town. Update much needed.
The old app was much easier to use. I used to check it several times a day, now maybe every other day. I find myself using the WKYT app as my primary news source now.
I like honest, unbiased news. I used their news app for years but it has recently focused mainly on politics and they can’t report on that without being biased.
