So convenient to get the most important news nationally, state-wide and locally. Only complaint is that the advertisement that appears, prevents the news item underneath it from being selected and un-boldened. This seems to be a program bug that could easily be fixed. Otherwise perfect and very useful.

BEST NEWS APP IN SAN DIEGO

Every time I was at work my boss would update us with developing news and current updates. Also with weather. So I decided to download the app and I actually check it often! I can always count on this app to update constantly no matter what time, especially at 5-6am the updates on crashes on the freeways or anything before starting my day. I got my family to download the app before they joked for awhile saying “tell us mrs. NBC news” because I would always ask “did you hear on the news that...” or I would say “don’t take this freeway until..” and they always ask, where do I get my news from? And well, it’s literally this app!

Good content, inconsistent presentation

NBC7 is my go-to San Diego news source, but this app is wildly inconsistent with technical issues. Audio levels are all over the place between live broadcasts (low), commercials (loud), and stringer video (really loud). No one seems to pay attention to the Weather page, which frequently has wrong dates in the sidebar forecasts. Today is Thursday Nov 25th, but they have it listed as Nov 24 (this happens frequently) and in fact the entire 10-day list of days and dates is wrong, off by one day. Videos sometimes take forever to load. I love the content, but the attention to detail is frustrating. Thank god it’s free!

Where my son lives

My son is in San Diego and I love keeping up with SD news thru this app. I know what the daily weather is, what top local news stories are breaking, and a view of national news so I can keep abreast without having to look further. I really enjoy learning about local special events, especially what to do each weekend. If I see something he might like, I flag it for his attention. A great app that I appreciate having at my fingertips.

I love this app!

I use this app daily. I set it up to receive notifications, so each time that there’s breaking news, I get a brief description. For instance: Gavin Newsom is going to give a briefing on CA and the coronavirus or that one for San Diego County is going to happen. Also for stuff like there’s been a fatal car accident on 8 West in Mission Valley. Expect delays or if the freeway is closed, etc. Important stuff!

Easy, up to date News

When I wake up in the morning, the first thing I do is turn on my IPad and get into your website. I can see how to dress for the day, find out what has happened on the east coast, and what to expect throughout the day. Quick, easy, accurate!

Know news

I’m scatter brained from a high stress {type A} personality. NBC 7 keeps me focused and aware of what’s GROOVING in our great city. I LOVE the alerts for breaking news. Aside from high blood pressure if it’s another mass shooting, It cues me to take a moment ( YES, TO BREATHE) oh, and read. S-l-o-w-l-y read. I’m gonna say this, and it may be a hyperbole, but NBC 7 has become my Life Coach, my Calm Connect....Well, sort of....

My go to place for news

I have this app on my IPad and use it every day to get my news and my weather. That’s especially important when I am on travel and away from San Diego and the area. NBC 7 provides me with excellent, concise, information on what’s happening in my county, the state and the nation. Love this app and NBC 7.

Local Notifications are Wonderful

The constant important notifications (fires, freeway closings, etc) are fantastic and help me keep me cognizant of what happening in San Diego from my phone. Sure, only some notifications are directly relevant to me, but I appreciate the local awareness the app grants that other social/national news medias cannot give me.

NBC7 app

I use the app for a number of reasons. I have even contacted people in the contact list...for example I was watching the news and the anchor who was broadcasting mentioned one city but not ours and was not clear. The person answered the phone when I called and was going to review and fix as necessary.

Second home in California

We have a second home in Carlsbad, CA. When we are in our South Carolina home we try to keep up with the news from California. I found that the NBC 7 app is great in keeping us updated on the news from the west coast. So glad that our California family recommended it.

My source for local news

Like getting my news from the app instead of tv because I can select the stories I’m interested in. Wish there were a little more local news and a little less local sports as San Diego only has a baseball team. Has the best weather reports, prefer it to the weather channel.

Does not support landscape AirPlay

Or I’d give it 5 stars. Amazing app, best and first with notifications, often before CNN or Apple News. Best by far with local news. And mostly, just the right amount of notifications that grabs me every time. Not so good on the ad delivery, too many repeats before the videos i always wanna watch.

Recent bugs make unusable

This used to be a good app, but then started freezing a few seconds after opening. That went on for about a month. The new version fixed this for a while, but for the last several weeks, shortly after opening, it irreversibly jumps to a border traffic camera image. Does anyone ever test this app for functionality on an iPad?!

At one top of my finger I can take a look at what’s happening at any given moment at any given time in my beautiful city. I love that I always get the emergency updates I can choose to look at them and ignore them but I know what’s happening at any given moment!

Prompt and concise

Thanks NBC San Diego for keeping me informed about our county as well as the state and nation. Note: Desert weather and humidity is very important for those of us living in East county. It's all about how we cool our homes as Swamp coolers or evaporative coolers only work in low humidity. So we need humidity reports regularly to take care of our homes.

Honest Local News

I enjoy local news stories and follow up for San Diego. This APP keeps me up to date on local news, events happening, and local weather. Updates are made to weather and news on a regular basis so I can check up wherever I am.

2 years ago, BPurdyIV

Had to uninstall

The new update made me uninstall. Painful to use. While scrolling it would randomly send you at the browser for an ad. Would also randomly pop up with multiple border camera video feeds that you would have to close before getting back to the articles. Shame because this used to be the best news feed for San Diego.

2 years ago, Well Shuffle My Truffle

obtrusive full-screen border crossing pop-ups

Okay for local news, but the app is cluttered, the ads before videos can be very long, and worst of all, the pop-up full-screen border crossing live cams. Extremely obtrusive. I’ve been hoping/waiting for an update to fix this issue because I can’t imagine for a single second that this was an intentional design feature.

Channel 7 San Diego

I really rely on this app for local news updates during the day, especially when there are events like the current wildfires. My only complaint is that some of the stories remain on the site far past time with no updates.

While I'm in San Diego I get news on my phone and feel that I'm kept current on news happening. I look forward to staying in the know when I return to FL where I now reside. But I like keeping up with my family this way.

NBC7 -My only direct link to SAN DIEGO

I love San Diego especially LA JOLLA.. Living here in Hawaii, NBC7 provides up-to-the minute news covering San Diego area with quality reporting of today’s current news. I wish NBC7 would do a daily segment covering “San Diego County Coastal News”reporting daily events from Oceanside to Mission Beach. Focusing on San Diego’s greatest asset; LA JOLLA!!! That’s a wrap.

Music Shuts Off in App

I like most everything about it except how the app shuts off any other non-NBC7 audio when you’re in the app. Other apps have it coded to just turn music off if you start a video. Please do that.

NBC 7 plus The New York Times...

I check NBC7 first thing every morning, particularly for San Diego and regional news; you’ve never let me down yet. I read the daily NYTIMES for national and international info, between the two I get my news fix for the day.

Cant get past traffic live stream

I’ve used this app for my local news for several years but switched today to CBS. While scrolling through the main page the live stream traffic opens and there’s no way to turn it off. So I just close the app. I’ve been hoping it would be fixed for a couple weeks.

What an awful redesign

So busy, so cluttered, so hard to read. I have switched back to the mobile website, at least there I can do basic items like change the text size, and read the news. I know most people may not want to do that, they may like the flashy new app that is shiny and unusable.
