Well they've taken care of the old issues which is a nice thing. Bet for some reason it only goes for just a short time and then it goes to will be right back and then it goes to a blank screen and then I have to go to my app and disconnect from casting to my Chromecast and start all over and within 5 minutes back doing the same thing this app is absolutely useless and is a major joke when it comes to getting news information online!!!!!

New update seems better except for it crashes after the commercial plays. It either completely fails, does not continue with the newscast, or continues with no sound. You have to physically press play after the commercial no matter what. I'm on a Pixel 8 Pro so the phone is not the issue. Why can't it simply play a newscast straight through??

I have this app on my firestick and this is the only app that I can watch my favorite local news (fox 17 in nashville, tn) for free. It has been a huge let down. The news will stream for about 10 seconds and then it freezes and comes back on a minute or so later. After doing that for about 5 times it quits altogether and goes back to the app home screen. I got rid of my cable because I no longer need tons of channels. The news anchors promote this app. I'm sure they have no idea how it works!
