5 Positive User Reviews for CBS Chicago

Good start but needs work

My biggest complaint is that if you do an alert on a story we expect the video on the page you go to to be about that story not whatever happens to be on the live feed at the moment. Yes. It’s nice if there’s a photo with the text, but if there’s a video link about a person arrested for whatever we expect the video link to go to that not weather, or puppies, etc. If the video is to the live stream it should be labeled that. Thanks for this start though.

The push notifications could be good

I appreciate the reporting of CBS Chicago, you have many great people working there. The push notifications I get from this app are informative and timely, but if you want more Info on something that the app notifies you about, clicking the notification will not help you 90% of the time. At this point I just google whatever yall mention and find the story somewhere else. This app would be my #1 source for news if the push notifications worked right

No iPad version?

I'm using an iPad Pro but I'm stuck with a mobile (phone) version? Can you please offer an iPad version?

Poor Notification Activity

Would be nice if the push notifications lit up the phone like my other apps and if it sent it to my Apple Watch like my other apps. App really needs some work on getting the notifications to work properly.

Not very useful

Where to start.. simply put, the headlines are poorly written much like click bait; the links in notifications take you to the main app page where the story you wanted to read is nowhere to be found. Search is terrible. I’m done uninstalling. Not useful
