Pros and cons of NBC Connecticut News & Weather app for iPhone and iPad

NBC Connecticut News & Weather app good for

I really like this app! It is extremely easy to use, it has a multitude of great features (I frequent the traffic maps), and it can be programmed to send alerts right to your phone! The one thing that I would love to see added, though, would be the ability to re-watch newscasts after they have aired, up until the next live newscast. So, for instance, being able to view the morning news up until 11:00 am, when the 11:00 am newscast begins. I have seen that capability on other news apps, and I think that it would be a great addition to your already fantastic app. I love your early morning news, but I am never awake at 4:30 am to view it! I would love to be able to catch it through a replay! Thank you, and I really enjoy the NBC Connecticut App! Jamie :)

I love it that it keeps me up to date with the weather but I wish that you guys will also keep the app up to date too.

I was tentative to install after reading the reviews but Ive been pleasantly surprised. The weather updates are great, the radar still works great. I think there is more detail to the forecast in the new app. The news stories stream well, better than in the old app.

Ive installed and tested all the other CT local news apps, the NBC CT app is by far the best. Much cleaner UI and its organized in a way that allows you to easily navigate quickly.

Thank you so much for listening to the reviews and adding support for landscape mode on the iPad! This app is an amazing tool and is wonderful for getting all the news going on in Connecticut, the USA, and around the world. Thank you again and great app!

Some bad moments

I dont know why replace ct weather with this app! This app is a mess!

As a golfer I used all the info in the hourly screen to map out my round. Where is that info now? Back to the App Store.

This is a weather app that sends 4 pushes per day about weather.... Every tease is also regarding the weather and this is on sunny days...

The first screen tells me to choose my internet provider. Since the most popular ones are shown as graphic blocks and mine is near the top, its easy to find. (Of course, theres an ad on the page, partially obscuring the Internet graphics.) Then, when I tap the block for my provider, nothing happens. No log-in screen is presented. Useless app.

This review will not let me rate this app as zero stars. Like the channel 8/ WTNH app (also deleted) there are loud, intrusive, video advertisements that seem to be programmed to shatter the silence every 15 or 20 seconds. I have deleted this app, too. Yes, you can probably turn your volume down or off... But if your finger accidentally touches the app while youre in bed and your partner had already fallen asleep, or you check your phone really quick in the back of a movie theater, youll get that startling blast of annoying advertisement. Bye-bye NBC CT!

Ive noticed in the latest update, that any story with a video will automatically play when you open the story. This will still happen when youre on cellular data and not wi-fi. I cant seem to find any setting to turn this behavior off. If I really want to watch the video, I can start it playing myself. I just want to read the news but now its increasingly difficult to do so. Please add an option to turn off this behavior.
