News 8

I use this app often to check the news and since the evening of 01/28/17 it has not been working. When I go to the appt it says there are no stories to view. I have deleted the app and reinstalled it and it is still not working.

Seriously, what is the point of taking up space on my phone if when I want to read a story it redirects me to my browser? Used to like it now it's pointless in my opinion...

I always turn to News 8 for the latest, most comprehensive news in the Quad Cities! Excellent, excellent, excellent !!!

It works for me

So... Many... Typos... I can't believe it.

Seems like the app is a front end to the website. I often can't play videos, etc and load times are slow. I might as well save the space and use the website instead. Stories are great. I just don't feel I gain anything by using the app over the website (other than alerts).

Great up to date app!

Great way to stay in touch with local news

My source for local and regional news when I can't watch the TV! Accurate and timely.

Old version was better. The weather part is not good

I really don't care for this new version. I really hate the weather. I loved being able to interact more with the old weather app.

KWQC, here I come!

Works great. The only thing that drives me nuts, is how long it sometimes takes the loading image to disappear. Most the time it's due to the ads taking to long to load. Other then that, the app works great, and I use it all the time. Wish you could customize the ringtone, it uses the same ringtone as a few other apps.

My Droid Turbo is so slow with this app.

This is great for news and all, but the Storm Track 8 App is where it's at. Live radar and all that.

This app is horrible nothing loads and force close constantly. Weather radars don't load either. Please redo your app

App runs in background and sucks battery power after it is "supposedly" closed. Also, I have the same problem as one of the other clients. "Hot" story isn't always there, or fails to open amd I have to search for it. Seems to be typical of WQAD, they are always settling for 2nd best. They let the good people go and hire second string. Update 1/15/15 Nothing has changed! Same problems still exist. Maybe I should try CBS or NBC.

I used to be able to watch the newscasts while on the go but now the window does not pop up. All that happens is the loading wheel continues spinning and nothing else happens. I have tried watching on the tablet and the same thing occurs there as well. Sometimes live streaming works on my laptop, but that is also hit or miss. Live streaming used to always work, so I am not sure what has happened, but it sure is frustrating.

The live streaming does not work. So why have it. It's worthless.

I love all of you! I do think the new monkey should be one of the 3 j's! Have a great day!

I'm kinda new to apps like this and it's somewhat hard to navigate. I use it to get local news and use weather bug for my weather.

Sometimes when I get a notification, I click it and it doesnt take me to the story or the story isnt there. Also the weather warnings are hard to read.

Uses way too much memory

Ap is ok. BIG data hog, in a couple of hours more than my email usage in a month. May have to uninstall.

I'be had to reinstall and it keeps crashing.

I get on ur sight and if I clicking a story, it throws me out. I will give a higher rating if you fix it. Thank you.

Love having my local news at my fingertips. Especially like how easy it is to find closings. Highly recommend.

unless your county is first in the list, you can't see warnings, no matter which county you select it reverts to first one on the list.

Excellent app. Great job

This app keeps force closing every time. I try to open it. Then when I reopen it comes up but very annoying that it takes 2 tries to open. The news doesn't seem as up to date as it could be.
