As I drink my coffee in the early am (typically 4 or 5 am), I always look forward to WISH TV keeping me company. They are always so chipper while I’m still a member of the walking dead and trying to make myself be a productive member of society. They wake me up to all the current news and help me to plan my day, my week, and my month from the minute I walk out my door. Thank you so much WISH TV for making MY AM NEWS so fun and interesting to watch!
I love being able to watch news broadcasts through the app since Wish-TV is available on my television. It’s also great to get notifications to my phone concerning breaking news
Overall the wthr news app works reasonably well. Incorrect spelling in the articles on occasion, and navigation from one news article to another requires returning to the main page unless the next interested article appears in a list of 3 pages in the current article. Cannot swipe through one article to the next.
Don’t like how you go from one story to another. Liked the app a couple of times back where you could swipe from right to left or left to right. Also would like to see more stories. They only have about five or six at any certain time. Mostly ads. Also don’t like them changing the traffic from their weather app as you can’t get any icons on the app to tell you the reason for any slowed traffic, whether it is an accident or roadwork. Also no coverage of the Indy Fuel hockey games.
Tired of the only news stories featuring shootings and people hit by cars. Please go find some news. I’ll even read about a pothole somewhere. At least your a little better than another local channel (I finally deleted their app). There’s got to be at least a few other news stories in central IN, but your station has to be willing to search for them.
I was very saddened to hear and see that U-verse took off Channel 8 WISH and Channel 10. I loved several shows plus I listened to their weather forecast. They also had news at 10 with very informative news. I really hope that U-verse brings back Channel 8 and 10!
The young lady Ashley Brown did an amazing Job tonight . Really love this news station because you hire the right people . Thank you for a great experience as always . Please let the entire team know how much they mean to us. Thom Smith Columbus , IN
I am a Dish subscriber so I am forced to stream my news/weather. In the morning the same 3 commercials are played non stop for 10 minutes at a time. It’s obnoxious and ridiculous
Overall app is good, the weather section is a good tool, but the traffic section had stopped working recently. Please fix. Stop with the pop up advertisements when I look up the radar. I’m almost ready to delete this app.
Hi, I appreci8 channel 8, the staff in front and behind the scenes. I love the family and community connections channel 8 is committed to. The weather updates and broadcast are so informative. Keep up the Good Work Everyone.
WISH needs an AppleTV app. I have to go to all streaming soon and none of the services carry WISH. I don’t want to mirror my iPhone to watch. There should be a native AppleTV app.
This app is slow to reload and is very slow when you scroll through all the stories. Not a great experience. Nothing ever loads and take down the propaganda from you site. You never tell the right story, you just tell a story the way you want us to believe it. The media has be come corrupted with the rich peoples money and agenda.
Previous app worked well and didn’t need replaced. Weather maps do not work as well if at all. I’ve even deleted and reinstalled to try to repair the map operation to no avail. Fix needs fixing apparently.
Top stories list keeps refreshing and kicks you up 5 stories. Happens multiple times before reaching the end of the list. Take the ads out so it stops doing this. Don’t mind 1 or 2 ads but make them load faster and don’t mix in with stories.
Too often when I find a story I just want to read about, it just locks up. I assume it’s going out to a server and wants to play the audio and video, but all I want is just to read the story.
Impossible to scroll through stories without glitches taking you back to top of page. Almost every article has a misspelled word or grammatical error. The writing stinks. Not the app’s fault, but the content writers.
I am so frustrated with the way this app jumps back to the top all the time whenI’m scrolling through headlines. It takes me 2X as long to use it as i scroll past the same items again and again. Please fix it!
Every time I click on a story the video would automatically start playing. If I want to watch the videos I would click on them. Please fix this so I don’t have to keep turning my volume down.
The videos starting automatically with every news article is annoying. I cannot open a news story without it going off. The weather is horrible. The front screen weather conditions almost never matches the actual forecast.
Weather portion of this app is poorly functioning with little to help. Old app would give verbal explanations of forecast and this offer no extra information at all.
The live stream feature just keeps starting over from the 4:00 am time stamp instead of being a “live” stream. The live stream is the main reason I use(d) this app. Each time you launch it, it says “thank you for joining this previously recorded newscast.” Useless.
The radar function is worthless. Only news alerts come up vs the weather. Please give us the old app back. This is your second time you tried to update your app unsuccessfully.
This app is very limited. There’s no search option to find what you’re looking for and it limits the viewer to only see what they think is “Top News”. Censorship at best!!
