WOIO Cleveland 19 News

Can you please please please make the size of the print larger I have vision issues so I need the size of the print much larger than it is now but there’s no way for me to do that on this app I love your app other than this one thing so if you could remedy this I could give you 5 stars

When you want your news in Northeast Ohio, it's all here in the app. While there are some accessibility issues with unlabeled buttons, it's still good. I love this app, and as a blind man in Cleveland, it's a way to start and end your day with the day's news stories and weather information. Keep up the good work on the app. As I said before, I use Voiceover. Voiceover is an accessibility feature for the IPhone, Ipad, and Ipod Touch, and mac. There are some unlabelledbuttons like the save news button that is not labeled at all. That could use some improvements. Other than that, the app is very accessible for the blind Community.,

Your report on your 6pm broadcast about Goodyear’ s contributions to candidates running for federal office was so confusing and very poorly produced. IT IS A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW for a candidate to accept corporate contributions. This was not even mentioned in the report . Your report stated Goodyear gave x amount of money to Sen. Brown, x amount of money to Sen. Portman , x amount of money to Representative Ryan. If this were true it would be a MAJOR news story. What you reported is simply NOT TRUE. Why would you do this? Then you went to Goodyear’s contributions to Republican and Democrat Party organizations and finally mention Goodyear has a PAC, which is legal for corporations. You never explained what a PAC is and why it’s required by federal law for a corporation to have one. I found your report both misleading and confusing; that’s why I give it ZERO STARS.

I like the clean and streamlined and efficient way the news is presented. No time is wasted scrolling down the headlines to stop at a story I wish to read. There is so much clutter and chaos in today’s world that it is a relief to go to 19 and see what news I missed quickly. I have always liked 19 for news. You seem to be Everywhere lol and post more stories than other channels.

We read your site everyday.. and truly enjoy your work. We live in Smithfield Ohio. Life time cleveland fans. Browns season ticket holder since 1978. We also had the pleasure of meeting Tony Zarrella and his wife. ( I was actually was Tony’s guest on a Browns 19 show) but we always view your site and always will. Please give Tony our sincere best.

Variety of coverage great! News about Trump over and over! To educate your viewership where is the news about proven facts of Hunter Biden?? Not a word! The mainstream media is only covering one side. A shame for the country to not get a balanced news!!

There has been a Thankyou ad that pops up in the middle of the articles blocking half of the page. This has been going on since late last year. I messaged the tech support twice with screenshots of what I was talking about with no response. I tried to message on Facebook and no response. So frustrating I finally deleted the app and downloaded a different Cleveland news app to keep up with the local news.

When watching the news, I usually watch Channel 19 news. Using this app helps me to keep up with the latest local news. I find this app to be very informational and easy to use. I like this a lot.

First, I LOVE 19 news. I no longer live in Cleveland but I keep 19 Action news on my devices for up to date news. However, every time I open the app on my iPad, it opens a pop up ad that forces me to listen to it. Then, when it’s done, it lets me into the app. But then the ad starts again! Fyi, lose these ads. If you’re not making enough money on your TV ads, charge more. The app should be ad free

I watch this because I love the people. They all are prompt & make everything easy to understand. I was always a fan & always will be. Keep up the good work & God bless. Christine

One of the biggest problems with the app is that the weather is not on there anymore , The need for a second app for that is very inconvenient., I will say that the stories are easy to read and usually pretty accurate with no mistakes ,typos. What’s the biggest problem with the app is it it always seems to be down ,never seems to be working properly

I check the 19 news app in the morning and throughout the day. Why is it never updated the same stories appear all day and sometimes they’re there for multiple days. It would be nice if the 19 news app was updated throughout the day to correspond to their newscast throughout the day.

It is highly unprofessional to mix in click bait ads that look like news stories with actual new stories. I can tell the difference, but how do you explain these differences to a person who doesn’t know? You can’t just tell them it’s a trusted news app and to believe every article they read on this app. Have some integrity.

Liked the previous app much better. Easier to see the different news stories. If it isn’t broken don’t try to fix it.

I’m so glad there’s finally an up date for the news. I love news and it’s availability, but sometimes the waiting for new updates made me yawn. 🤭

There is absolutely no racists on channel 19 , that makes watching the news informative with out unnecessary anger about the way the news is brought to us .

Ever since the new format/update the weather function is not available half the time does not update I just wind up going to another local news site for the weather The app is unbelievably slow!!!! I think they reverted to dial up!!

The only thing missing. Is the pictures and names of the team. So I can keep up with the newest team members

I liked the old look that was on your web sit, I do not like the update that is on your web site

I watch Channel 19 for all my news and monitor the online news as well! Love the anchors, the alerts, the weather forecasts - love it all!

I would like to thank channel 19 for keeping me informed on the news as it happens .

I do not like the new layout and it crashes or is super sluggish every time I use it. I deleted before the new look for similar reason. May delete again. Too bad, because it was my go to app.

I have been using the app for many years. Really hate the update.

I really don’t need to know every Browns or Cavs score every five minutes, I’ve got sports notifications turned odd Live reminders are turned off. Sports scores are definitely not breaking news. Why do I continue to get these updates?

I moved here from Mississippi and this is the most annoying news channel. They interrupt every program for coverage of every funeral like who cares and all the trials of Jan 6th again not necessary!!!! They are also on too much all day!!!!!! All you do is repeat non necessary bull crap.

Since the update. The app keeps crashing. I can’t even get that far. Not sure if that’s why I’m not getting any news or what? I do get weather notifications but when I try to go back to see the news. It crashes.

Don’t like this new format for my iPad and iPhone. Too many ads, doesn’t update. News listed is days old. Why can’t it be updated more often? Won’t be using this app.

The app was way better before the update now it’s just disorganized

When I go to click on a news alert or open an app, I’m forced to watch an Ad. Not cool. For that reason I most likely will rely on other news sources.

This app generates download errors at least 30% of the time. Both when opening the app and when opening the main news link. A lot of the time I go to the channel 5 app to get my news.

Interesting news always

This App use to be great now it is flooded with ads I am forced to watch and sometimes cannot exit out of, if I didn’t want to have a second news app on my phone I would delete this app for sure

Not bad, as news apps go. However, they abuse the “breaking news” notifications to send dozens of alerts to your phone. Most of which are just click bait.

Very good

I like the older format of the Cleveland 19 application better. The one previous to this current version.

There’s no way to change the font size. You should add that.

App doesn’t work after last update

App won’t open since the update!

There is an ad that literally takes up half the screen and never goes away whether scrolling news or reading a particular story. There’s plenty of news stations in Cleveland, download somebody else’s app.

App freezes when switching/watching videos in full screen/landscape mode - iPhone 11.

My favorite is Jeff Y. All the people are great, but he adds some fun!! We all need fun!

Since when did add overrun the actual news? Open the app, here’s an ad. Want to read a story, we’ll you get a stupid game ad there too. Ridiculous with all the ads.

Used to be my favorite news app. Now I can’t even look at anything until I view an obnoxiously loud video ad.

I updated this app a few days ago and now it will not open at all. I deleted then reinstalled and still not working. Please fix

Why fix what isn’t broken. There was nothing wrong with the other app. This has too many adds and I don’t like it. I will probably delete it and just download channel 5.

I just updated the app and now it won’t open . I restated phone bug the app still won’t work. Okay, now I deleted the app and started over. Now the app is working!!

Download to get latest on coronavirus. All I could see was a day or two old. Will delete and go to another channel.

I would like to see the notifications erase one at a time instead of all at once when the notifications start popping up

Can’t stand when headline says body cam footage released and then no body cam footage in the article.

I do not like the new visual layout of the story list, it doesn’t look as sharp as the old layout.
