WGAL News 8 App Reviews

I like the alerts it keeps me up to date on news in my area. I get new when it is convenient for my schedule.

I love the weather radar but not so easy to access why not put it on the front page? Have 3-4 big stoies on the front page and options to go to peticular categories at the bottom of the page. Too many clicks.

At least half of the news stories do not play. There is an ad before you get to the news item and the ad bogs down and does not play. Or if it does play, it plays for a few seconds, stops for several seconds, resumes playing, stops again, etc. Its the same on my wifes iPad. She no longer uses WGAL. If it were my ad and I was paying for it, I wouldnt pay. I like the people in the news items if you ever get to them.

People think Im crazy, but this app is really Fun to watch! Id rather watch WGAL news than play a game or go to facebook! Its inclusive, interesting and I feel comforted in knowing all I need to know to be safe and since I grew up withit daily on TV, I feel friendship, too with several news people. Thank you for your excellant work!!

When I try to view a news or weather video the Honda commercial stalls after 2 seconds and no way to bypass commercial.

This a really great app. Especially if you dont always have time to watch the news at home.

Always starts with a dang 30 second commercial even though live tv is running news.

Who has time to watch TV? The WGAL app keeps me up to date while on the go . . .

Until recently I really liked the app and the Nowcast. However I have not been able to get the Nowcast. Its either all advertisements or a black screen. I wish they would fix it because its a great way to get the news in the morning

Too many. Cannot terminate commercial to get to article. Commercials are too long. Annoying.

I love it, being able to see the latest news at any time!

Nothing says welcome more than an ad That covers the whole page when you open the app. This is an ad site with a little news sprinkled in. I only use it for the weather. And even that is a pain. The radar maps dont work half the time. Fire your app guy. After countless updates it still is garbage.

Commercials are too frequent and much too long. Must have seen the "Honda" commercial a hundred times. But not all the way through. It mostly stalls and does not play. If I was the Honda dealer, I wouldnt pay you. I really like your news people.

I find the app annoying to use. Too many commercials and too many clicks to find the news I want. I would prefer an app that lists news stories so that I could click on the ones I am interested in reading.

Im from York, but, moved to Florida over 3yrs ago, for health reasons. Ive always loved WGAL, so I made sure to get the app to keep up with the news up there.

This new update is extremely annoying, I also stopped using it because when I need to be discreet I would prefer to read my news, everything is a video.

Its not easy to find local news from Lebanon County and when you do, the ads are extremely annoying.

Needs more updates news, seems like they only change it every few days. I dont get to watch the news so Id like to be able to just click on the app and get the latest... Also, commercials...... Ughhhhh....

I totally agree with the other reviews that say there are to many, too little news, and too few important news updates.

This used to be myfavorite news app but now there are a lot of advertisements and most of the stories are video clips. I dont want to use my data to watch news clips. I should be able to read the news if I want. Im deleting this and will go with another news app.
