WGME 13

It has the complete weather forecast (via video). Great to be able to get the complete forecast without being at my house. This alone makes me give this a 5 star.

I have used the WGME weather app for years. This latest update made the map feature basically useless. I have tried to follow storms and watch the future possible tracks of storms and this newest version is terrible. I used to be able to tell my kids exactly when and where rain/snow/bad weather was going to hit their area and this new version just doesn’t work. I was tracking the latest thunderstorms and the map had the storm directly overhead and I was outside, it was sunny. Just completely unreliable.

Nothing more than a right wing tabloid with a bit of local news to go with it. Trash

Update: if I could write a fair review, this app would be in negative numbers by now. All day it’s sent me election update notices and when I click on them the app opens to a page that shows a play arrow and says “we’ll be right back” OR it just sits there showing the play button. Worse than useless because you could forget it, but it bugs you with notifications and then won’t play what you clicked. hate this app. You get an alert, that you want to read, yet when you click on it you just land on their "front page." What you clicked on is almost never included in the stories that are there. SOMETIMES, you can search and find the story, but most often, it's just not there. I end up googling it and reading it on another local news agency's site.

Needs a lot of improvement!! Notifications bring you to a entirely different story at times. Once your in a specific article the back button/ arrow is an absolute nuances to engage back into the main page, make it bigger so we don’t have to tap it a hundred times!!! Whoever writes the reports into the app should definitely use spell check and editing before sending it off. Just makes your organization look bad with misspellings, especially for a news organization!! Don’t fire anyone, just fix it!!

Ugly and lousy. You can tell they threw a bunch of cheap web developer to simulate an iOS app and you end up with bizarre behavior: you open the app and the web page asks you to get the app from the App Store! The worst is that this ISNT A WEATHER APP: it's a NEWS app and I keep getting push notifications for local murders. Finally, finding the weather is just a joke. Too many clicks, ads, and an ugly web based app. Disjointed, ugly, inefficient. Already deleted.

Great app, very well thought out. Usually I'm a WCSH devotee, but I do love WGME's app.

Updated to the new version today and it takes forever toload, it appears that they have integrated video with every story so when you hit the news tab it tries to download every clip before the app opens. Useless And a waste of 3g/4g/LTE bandwidth. Beware if you are on a limited data plan. WGME offer us an option for either text only or text with video until this app gets refined properly it imho is useless.

App is terrible. It is sluggish, random adds will pull you into the web browser, or App Store, without pressing anything. Rotating the screen to watch a news video will restart the patriot subaru ad you just spent 30 seconds watching. None of the screen control functions work. I can’t swipe from left to right to go back a page. Just awful.

deleted Portland's Channel 8 upgrade because only local news required video watching and other news was non-local. Now this- can't go to landscape mode and I cannot get beyond the tutorial to the news and other features. More and more of tv apps are similar format with same problems- same designers evidently. Probably delete this one too!!

Nice app if the weather was even close. We've had high 80's to 90's this week but this forecast says 74! It does't even agree with their online forecast, which was correct. Looking forward to an update.

Really disappointed with this app. No wonder it has nothing but bad reviews. I’m wondering why nothing has been done to fix and improve it by now? Will stick with Facebook and just going straight to there website for weather updates. Again really disappointed.

I have tried to get my sound to work I have deleted it off my iPhone and re applied it and I still have no sound it worked for a couple of days my speaker is on but no sound volume is up still nothing I really would like to have the sound

Notifications don't bring you to the story that matches, just the home page. You then must hunt for the article. App screen does not allow you to rotate view Story line regularly runs wider than the page. Resizing or scrolling does not help.

There is a very frustrating problem with this app and I'm avoiding using it. You get a notification that is interesting but when you try to open it, it just opens the app instead of going straight to the story. Please fix this!

The layout of the homepage is odd and includes what is basically spam, as well items that haven't been updated in months. That would be ok if there were not intrusive ad banners at the top and bottom of every page one opens. The Press Herald app is marginally better so the search for a good local news app continues.

Whoever is in charge of updating sports doesn't do their job. Sport stories stay on the app for weeks at a time. The Kentucky Derby was over a week ago and is still out there. Meanwhile, the Celtics were were eliminated and the Bruins advance, but no mention of either of these local favorites? Wow.

Keeps me up to date on local news and is pretty slick for what it's trying to be.

Seems decent except the radar doesn't load.

It barley loads. Worked for about a week. Then I can't use it anymore. News 13 rules but you guys really need a new app layout and op system. For now I'm stuck with channel 6 and there GIANT 3 day forecast. Woo hoo.

They updated the ads so before you read a story it closes the app & brings you to the Internet to look at this tiny banner. Seriously? So irritating

Hello, I would be great if the app layout rotated when a tablet was being used in landscape mode.

Use it on my iphone and ipad thanks wgme

Went to watch morning news and it's a live feed of a Delaware news morning show. Not sure why wgme 13 can't get it right ?

Very crappy App it doesn't have the most recent news for days and the loading time for it is too much of a pain.

I want to like this app, but the bugs keep popping up. With no easy way to contact support it's a no go. Don't hide from your product.

Update stinks, takes forever to load, and opens the wrong story every time...horrible...if I could do 0 stars I would. DELETING the app until its better

I love this app

The alerts don't take you to the story that the alert is previewing.

Having trouble with app. It doesn't open up. It has been a couple weeks now. I always have trouble with this app on my iPad.

The app is very generic with much less balanced news & good weather reports than WCSH. Plus you get political merchandise ads and opinions from the viewpoint of Sinclair Broadcasting.

This might become a good app, but it's stuck on the download day, as reported by a previous reviewer. The graphics seem sharp and quick.

Loaded it on the 4th of Dec, only news stories posted have been from Dec 1. Press Herald or WCSH are much better for local news apps!

I have to get my news from Boston. IOS Apple TV is not supported by channel 13 maine.

The new app is no longer a dedicated weather app. Not happy at all. Will be deleting, and looking for a new weather app. FAIL!

This is a great app… If you love to be bombarded with advertisements

It's ok. But doesn't share. Only shares a blank page & I wished it had a obits.

Never opens, crashes. Just plain junk.

This app is the worst moble streaming app. Basically does not work. App does not open in the horizontal makin it useless.

It's junk !!!!! Crashed on me and I don't plan on installing it again ... Glad it was free :) zero stars

App works poorly, design is terrible !The commercials play well ! Junky App..

This app doesn't update! It's stuck on the day I downloaded!

Just what the title says. Guess I'll stick with the WCSH app.

I love tromp

Just installed this app, basically for weather - today's snowfall totals. Gave me that & a lot more on demand.

I travel the us and want to keep up with news from home but the video will not play on iPhone.

Very happy to have this!

I've had it 15 minutes and Love that I could get a weather video! ... And it's thorough, the most up to date, and well done! Ch 6 app is too simple and no weather video available (I was a loyal WCSH6 fan but they've forced me to find the most up-to-date video forecast elsewhere--best one is here with you @Ch13) nice work!

It only allows vertical view on my ipad. To be fair I only just downloaded the app. The weather looks like opposing forecasts from everything else I’ve seen today, including looking out my window. They say sunny with clouds. BUT: It’s clearly completely overcast and ready to rain before long. Radar on other apps and websites clearly show the heavy green radar approaching us. How does this say partially sunny? I’ll give it a chance, but am not liking the forced vertical view. Will update my review later if my opinion changes. Channel 13: PLEASE post your latest weather videos from the news on YouTube. Your website is atrocious, and I suspect the app isn’t going to be what I’m after. Update: Aside from the app being ONLY vertical, which for me is a major negative, the menu of categories across the top of the screen is cut in half, so I can only see the top half of the text. I’ll be deleting the app.
