I don't know who the developer is for the Sinclair apps but that team is great. Easy to use. My only complaint is the stories become extremely redundant on slow news days or during snowstorms

BOTH WGN and WPIX apps force stops before if finishes loading so I can't use either app. BOTH apps were better before the latest updates on both apps. They worked before and now they don't. NOT HAPPY AT ALL!!!! Please fix the issue to both WGN & WPIX apps.

Video stream literally never works. When scrolling to read an article, ads loading force the page to reload resulting in it going back to the top of the page. Having to scroll back down and find my place is rather annoying.

I love my local news on WGN and have enjoyed this app but the most recent version is very annoying. Pop up commercials are one thing but when they totally interfere with my ability to keep reading an article by taking me back to the the top of the article it becomes almost unbearable. Please fix. Live video streaming on Android never works. At startup I don't need to go to the last article I read. Just reload to the latest news.

As supported apps are fine. But when your ads are jumping around like a Jack Russel terrier forget it. Find a decent balance or don't inflict this trash on us.

Literally downloaded just to stream the Bulls live and was highly disappointed. Live stream does not mean showing me the 5 o'clock news at 7 when the game is actually on. Live means live.
