NBC 4 New York: News & Weather for Android

This is a good app, but one bug I’ve noticed with it is that the badge number on the app icon keeps increasing each time I get a notification even though I’ve already cleared the alerts in the alerts section within the app. So for example, if in a day I get 3 notifications the app would display a badge with the number 3 and I’d go and clear out the alerts in the app and the badge number would disappear but then when another notification comes in, the badge would display the number 4 instead of 1. So it acts like I still haven’t cleared out the alerts even though I did.

I’ve been using this app for quite a while and been happy with it, but the last few weeks it’s been having issues. The weather section won’t load and freezes the whole app. I have had to go the App Store and reload it several times. But today even that won’t work. It is still stuck in weather trying to load the radar map.

Launching the app doesn’t work the first, second, or sometimes the third time. I close it out in between but to no success. If they don’t fix this soon, I will delete the app a never come back. Which will be a shame

I used to love this app. Something happened where it does NOT work when only allowing location services while using the app. In order for the app to work accurately you have to have location services Always Allowed. Why do they need to track me??? A HUGE thumbs DOWN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So this app normally works very well. But as of lately, it does not load the weather on initial open.Every time I open the app, the weather page freezes on a blank page. I then have to go through a continuous cycle of opening and closing out the app for the weather to actually load. This can take anywhere between two and 10 times. It’s really a shame because I love retrieving my weather from this app but it doesn’t work.
