Local Now: News, TV & Movies

I love this app! I always put it on my fire stick while getting ready for work in the morning. I really enjoy that it provides local news based on my location, and that it gives you a mixed variety of news clips to help you get the day started. I would like to suggest a feature where we could choose which categories we would like the app to focus on. For example: I would love to see more national news and tech news, and less cooking clips. Hopefully there could be a feature that includes this. Maybe add a voting feature for each of the clips and have the app remember what type of news you like and learn from those clips to then show more of the same after some time. Overall the app is great and I highly recommend. I would definitely pay $1-3 per month to remove ads.

We are lucky to live in a time of flourishing arts and event scenes that coincide with a new found emphasis to support our local communities. This app is the perfect way to effectively navigate our thriving city and all of the beautiful things it has to offer! Then of course having the local weather and news at your finger tips is a huge plus. This app is all you need to plan your day, weekend, life!!

Love the app, but it sometimes reboots constantly on my tv..so much so that at times its just not worth it and I turn it off. I know you have to get your ads in there, but when you put an ad in for a movie...which should really be in the show biz/entertainment section...and the ad is several minutes long plus the additional time for the rebooting, and the fact that you show this ad at the beginning of every section you have ...it is super annoying and makes me want to turn it off. I really wish it worked better, as I love watching this app on the rare occasions that it works right.

I don’t have cable and refuse to watch depressing local news. This give me the top stories and weather

The app is fair but there is a major problem. I am visually impaired and I have the voiceover to read and it doesn’t read anything below the video screen. How am I supposed to read the news articles and all the movies if I can’t see it. The voiceover on my device would read the details below the video screen but all it’s doing is responding like the voiceover is off. That’s very disrespectful and I don’t appreciate it. #respect people with disabilities.
