Pros and cons of 40/29 News - Fort Smith app for iPhone and iPad
40/29 News - Fort Smith app good for
This is the first app I turn to when looking for local news. 40/29 covers both the River Valley and NWA equally. I would recommend this app to everyone.
40/29 News at 5, 6, & 10 are great. Im thinking with all the growth in the River Valley and NWestern Ark we are in need of a station for both.
Some bad moments
Need to be current, too much old news. Agree with all other reviews
The app has more out of area news and the local news tend to be outdated. The layout of the app is horrific. The app needs a complete overhaul.
SERIOUSLY.....IS THIS A JOKE?
I call it the "30 second app" - There is ONLY 30 seconds worth of content to be a viewed!
Todays content just proved my point!
"Poll says that blondes are more likely to cheat!"
This app is well designed and easy to view; however, whoever is in charge of updating the news on the app is lacking in his/her duties. They rarely update the app except for every 3 or 4 days. If they were more on top of it, this app would be great.
This app is worthless. They do not update stories such as kidnappings to let you know what the outcome is. A 3-year old missing since July 15th but nobody bothers to update the app saying if the child was found. Also a 34-year old woman went missing and it took them 3 days to update that the woman was seen the night she went missing. 3 DAYS! They were told the woman was found (verified on the police department app) but the app makes no mention of it! Stupidity in inaction at work for this app.
How about you set up your app to where you are able to tap the notification on a story and it opens up the link directly to that story, instead of just opening it up to the home page where you then have to search for the article you initially clicked on? *GASP*
