Thank You for the opportunity to express my thoughts on your station. I enjoy watching your news coverage morning, noon and night. I am extremely pleased and impressed by your continuous coverage of situations good and bad, that go on in our community concerning animals. Being an animal lover myself, I do so appreciate your stories and highlights. Thank you for taking the time to inform and investigate, especially the animal cruelty-dog fighting rings, that go on all over the surrounding counties as well as ours. The only way to help these poor innocent souls is to call out and bring to light the torture and barbaric events that continue to happen. Hopefully, Mississippi will change their laws and start handing down stiffer penalties.
I grew up watching channel 7 and we always watched the midday news and always watched The 10 pm news and even as an adult when I travel having the weather app and the news app I don’t miss anything that’s important for our state and local community Thank you WDAM
I have tried this app before. I saw that it says that it has been updated. So I decided to give it another try. It still does not work. This app will not open unless "Location Services" are turned on in settings. This is NOT necessary for any of the other 265 apps that I use. I am the victim of extreme, stalking abuse and would NEVER want to broadcast my location at all times. I also use a VPN to block tracking. Literally, all other apps that I use, including WBRZ News app, my national news app, and all shopping, editing, and gaming apps, open and work just fine with zero problems. In fact, most apps give the option to refuse to allowing any tracking at all. Please fix your app so that all residents of the area can view the local news conveniently at any time too.
I have such a hard time finding anything on this app. Your weather app spends time with video sucking up power at a time when we may not even have power, rather letting me read or hear just audio on what is happening with severe weather. I was trying to follow election results and FIRST there was no info available under Election Results! It was the least informative on important election. SECOND it took a while to find what was available. Next, difficulty finding high school football scores. All I want is to know what they are and you seem to have difficult time providing that information.
I know this is an NBC station, but you are in South Mississippi and we don’t want to hear how great Biden is paying student loan debt every night on the news. You neglect to say that the taxpayers are paying it. It’s not coming out of his pocket. Plus, it helps the white student a whole lot more than it does the black if anything this is bias toward black students. I only watched this station to catch something local that might interest me but every time y’all get on something on a federal level, you take the left leaning side of it in a right leaning side state. Why is that. who are the editors of this stuff that they can’t tell the story from both points of you and not just a Democratic.
This was a great app but since the update it’s not better it’s hard to share things it’s hard to find new stories. I’ve noticed wdam is not sharing on Facebook since the update so I have to go looking for the news now
I’ve been using this app for a few years and loved it. Since the last update I can’t open it or use it. I’ve noticed it opened once when I have my location settings on. I’ve never had to have my location settings on until this last update. I do not regularly have my location settings on, please change this so I can view the news without having to turn and keep my location settings to on
You IDIOTS printed the name of a sexual assault VICTIM
In today’s top story on the app, there is a HORRIFIC story about a 2 year old who was kidnapped and raped by a homosexual couple/relative of the 2 year old baby boy. To my HORROR, this app actually NAMED THE BABY!!!!! The story indicates that law enforcement found the perpetrators by using surveillance video of “where Herring was found”… (The baby was abandoned on side of the road naked.) The alleged journalist who posted the article should be fired immediately. The story has been reprinted and shared across the state with the kid’s name in it.
I can tell you!!!!! The republicans that voted against Trump today can clean their desk out..... we will spend big money to get them out of office..... Democrats is liars and they will pay for their dirty money they take!!!!! Go Trump see you in 2024....
After commercials the app locks up and you have to restart the news cast and scroll past the commercial to watch further. However it will happen again and I have to repeat the steps. Either you fix it or I will watch WWL in New Orleans and delete the wdam app.
This app has become non-functional on an iPhone since the latest re-invention. It won’t open 95% of the time. When it does, it’s hard to find what you want to read. I’m reading some reviewers saying it will open with location services on— I don’t care to have my phone broadcasting my location at all times. I like WDAM, but this app is awful.
I can’t watch or read anything without back to back ads. I understand you have to make money but dang y’all. I just want to read the news. Also it’s very clumsy and not easy to navigate...which doesn’t really matter if you can’t actually click on something without multiple ads. I give up.
One thing I can say is missing is the Friday night area football scores from around the pine belt. The sports tab doesn't cover the games either. The layout of the page before the update to me, was a little better. But, still enjoy the news coverage
Too many ads!!!!!! Ads will pop up while you’re trying to read a story or watch a live coverage on severe weather. Have to watch the ad first before you can see a severe weather forecast
Every time I try to watch the news broadcasts wether latest edition or live, it is locked up by an add about some stupid online game. You need to fix this problem so people can watch the news without being cut off in the middle.
There are more ads than news coverage (some of which play back to back three to four times), and then it’s a toss up if you’re getting your local news coverage or one from another state!
Why does this app demand access to shared location in order to access news? I will not be needing this app anymore. I, like many others, value our privacy far beyond the value of WDAM’s lackluster articles.
Having to listen and view channel 12, thank goodness for their coverage. We sure need our Nick and WDAM weather. Conservative South Mississippi despises the View but we need our local TV
Recent Update has completely ruined the WDAM news app experience for me personally... it WAS absolutely my favorite app for 2yrs !?!? Am I missing something???
I used to be able to watch the latest live WDAM newscast but now I get random news. To make matters worse, I now can’t find the sunrise headlines anywhere. The app is now basically worthless to me.
Since a previous update, the app no longer loads the story, it starts then stops mid download. The frame and title load correctly. The wLOX app does the same
Inserts sarcasm. Thank you for adding video ads to each article with this latest update. We didn’t need that fixed. It was working perfectly fine. I hate ads.
My NUMBER ONE METEOROLOGIST PATRICK BIGBE HAS THE WIZZ, but the rest of the NEWS SEVEN TEAM FOLLOWS FOR THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI!!!!keep up the good work Patrick !!!
This app is poorly managed… it is rarely updated…Since we don’t get a daily newspaper in our area I had hoped that the WDAM app would fill that void but I am sadly disappointed…
You report mostly dirty Laundry not news that is of any consequence And ,the app??? Liked it better before. Ps!!!!! Please proof read your stories. A lot of the time it is as if a 5th grader is writing.
