So slow

It takes a full 40 seconds to load. The apps from the other two local networks load in about 15 seconds. If you have absolutely nothing better to do in your life, this app will fill your day.

Much improved App

Really like WBIR-TV, and now I like their app better. Its the first app I go to for news. Their separate weather app is also good. There is no perfect app, but this one is good.

Great way to keep up to date

Works great! Keeps me informed on the go.

Great News App

Love this app and its alerts.

Love the app

I LOVE my WBIR app, it keeps me up to date on everything that matters.

Love WBIR!

I love WBIR. I couldnt get along without their reporting. The app is great. It is organized well and sends me helpful notifications of events. I like the "what you need to know" alerts it provides each day. Awesome station and mobile app.

WBIR is the ONLY worthwhile local news

Best personalities, best coverage, best weather. The app is great at keeping you informed of whats happening everywhere.

Morning news

I love this app! I watch the morning news as I get ready for work. Everyone is so personable. My favorite show for the morning and the Live at Five at Four!

Weather update

I do not like new update. You have nothing to show the allergens like before, you have to search everywhere to find what was a simple process before. All around this new update is terrible, leaves a lot to be desired. Weather part is the worst. You ask me to rate and if I dont want to give you a star it will not let me rate.

To many ads when u are scrolling

I like the app and getting alerts but when you go to app and ur scrolling thru the news the ads keep jumping back up in front of a news story u click on and it takes u to their site or loses your spot and its really frustrating

Love WBIR

When I moved to East Tennessee 31 years ago, I started watching WBIR and have continued to watch it ever since. Love that I can now catch up on all the days headlines on my phone. Keep up the awesome work!

No longer dependable

Not sure what changes have been made, but the app is no longer dependable. Despite a good internet connection (min 15/15) the app stutters and the video doesnt match the audio. After a week of this, I switched to another station that does not have this issue. Its too bad as we really prefer Wbir. Also, Ive yet to get a weekend broadcast to work. It says the video you requested is not available

RADAR

No easy access to real-time Doppler radar anymore. Sad. WC sold out to the Corp and the poor man cant pay for advertising. Or wont!

Love it BUT

Love being able to keep up with developing news, but wish there was a way to customize type of notifications. Dont like getting sports updates.

WBIR app

This is definitely my go too for breaking news and current weather. Great job, many thanks!
