NBC Connecticut: Local News App Reviews

You took a GREAT weather app and buried it in a horrible app that forces me to jump through hoops just to see the temperature. It will be deleted and I will look for another weather app. For those looking for replacement weather app check out NOAA. Seems like a good one and for 2 bucks you can eliminate the ads. Cya NBC CT!

No weather video. Im deleting this app! Cant give it zero stars!

I had their old app and had no problems with it. They forced me to replace it with this by saying I was using as old unsupported app. I should have stuck with the unsupported app. This one will only go in the vertical position, never actually takes me to the story it alerted me about, and is generally hard to navigate. Im going to see if channel 3 has an app and delete this!

This app went from being the best, most useful weather app to the worst! It doesnt provide much useful information and the maps are completely useless

What a shame they ruined this app with the latest update. When I check weather I want a dedicated weather app not this mess that seems mostly about news stories. What on earth were they thinking? Now I will need to use a different wether app.

The new app stinks. I want the radar, and only the radar. The old app gave it to me, simply and accurately. Now I am prompted to install the new app every time I want to see the weather. Please please please!!!! Leave the old weather app as it was, and remove the screen asking us to install the new one. I dont want the news or anything else-- JUST THE WEATHER!

Whoever wrote this should be hung by their thumbs! Not even worth one star. I refuse to use it... back to the old app which at least works in the landscape mode.

Use to be good but now it freezes and crashes all the time

The news content of the app is fine. Easy to navigate. My issue is with the live streaming of broadcasts. Anytime I attempt to stream, whether on my iPhone or iPad, I either get an error message or the app crashes. Frustrating!

The old version worked fine and I used it daily. This version is stuck in the vertical position, stories dont swipe back easily and half of the time nothing loads. It wont let me use the old version either so I guess Ill be switching over to Fox 61/CT Now for my news now.

Cant understand why an app would not allow rotation of view. Deleting app as I will never use this in vertical view. Old version was a daily app. Disappointed.

This new app of yours is horrible, it wont go horizontal. Im very disappointed and will be switching to CBS, there app was like the old one you had. I will be deleting the app until you make it better or go back to the old one.

Make the app utilize horizontal instead of just vertical guys, cmon! App stuff 101

The old app was much better. This one cannot be viewed in landscape and is too big for the screen (features are cut off). Why replace a perfectly good app with this? Please restore the old app. It doesnt even rate one star.

Old app was better.. Consistent error on the video streaming.

Dont like this "updated" (really not an update as it went backward) app. at all. I think most iPad users use their tablet in landscape mode and this is portrait mode only. Very annoying. Every time I tap the ICON it tells me to download the new app. which I obviously already have. I have to tap it a second time and then it loads. As someone else already said, I will use WFSB app. moving forward as it works better and is in landscape format.forward as it is like old NBS 30 app. As the old saying goes, "leave well enough alone" and that should have been applied here.

This app is absolutely horrible. Bring back the old app. Deleted off my phone Gave one star because I had no choice other wise would have given zero stars

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.

The new ap is terrible, the old one gave me the weather, well, I dont want all the other news. Also the new format is vertical on the phone thats fine but not on a pad Not a good upgrade.
