Hard to see photos on iPhone

App is decent but I am unable to pinch to zoom photos. Can’t BOLO if the image is too small.

Okay

The news channel is OK, the weather report is great. But the app runs horribly. Every time I click a notification on my phone for an alert either news or weather, the app repeatedly stops me from being able to read the article because ads/videos, keep popping up to block my viewing. Not very helpful at all. I will be exploring other Southwest Florida news station apps.

Takes over my speaker

It’s overall a good app but I prefer to READ my news not watch it or listen to it. Every time I open a story to read it automatically starts playing. This is a recent change and I really dislike it. I am avoiding opening articles now. No support or comments link available for tech support.

Staying connected!

Thank you WINK news. Enjoying the app and able to stay connected while we are out of power, internet, and cable!

Miss Lois reporting from Fort Myers . Wink app keeps me posted. Also Lois’s reading at Resurrection. Hope to be back soon for winter and work on condo. Our condo made it👍🙏🏻🌹

Best local weather

WINK is the best local station I have ever watched. The weather crew was amazing during the disaster of Ian. Even though they themselves got wiped out they informed us to the end. God Bless them All

Top News Station

I just love Jen, Greg and your entire group. They are thorough in everything they report. Love you all and those behind the scenes.i

Could be better

Too much adds popping up and covering everything. It takes a few hits to get them completely out. They should add a comments section under the reports.

WINK News

I am a snow bird and I follow WINK all year. I love this part of Florida and I thank you for keeping me informed of what is going on in the area. You are tops in my book! Betsy Johnson, Hastings, Mi.

WINK News

WINK is my “go-to“ channel for news and accurate weather forecasts.

Can’t Share

Why did you change the app?? I can no longer share your articles. Very annoying.

Audio Issues

We love WINK News and watch it regularly via our cable provider. But, for a few months have been living in a rental property with only internet and Smart TV’s. That is when we recognized the serious audio issues when using the app, which are are only magnified when connected to a TV via AirPlay. I have removed the app and reloaded. We do not have any audio issues with any other apps used to watch TV (e.g., ESPN, NBC, CBS, Fox News, Paramount, etc). It is even more noticeable during Commercial Br

Scrolling issues

Everytime you scroll down far enough it goes back to previous news making it almost impossible to consume news below the top ones.
