WTOV9 4+

The App is a great resource for information when we occasionally miss the news. We enjoy the phenomenal team that General Manager Tim McCoy has assembled. This great team is our only choice for our news coverage…..

I love this app it's amazing because you can see if your friend go to a different school and yours is canceld u can check there's and maybe you could play because it's canceld my opinion is I like it 👍👍👍.

WTOV appears to be resting on their laurels. For over a decade, Channel 9 has dominated their lone TV News competitor in everything including online presentation and content. For a few years, their coverage of local high school football was one of the best in the nation. Impressive for such a small market. While their actual website continues to attempt to maintain that level of service, it appears they've all but abandoned their iOS app. It looks like they may have put an unpaid intern or hobbyist in charge of content. While it looks pretty good, it's updated sporadically & many features do not work. I don't have time to list specific issues, there are too many. I will say their competition, WTRF, may have noticed this too and has perhaps invested more resources in their application as it is worlds apart from Ch. 9's at this point. Phone/tablet apps are quickly becoming the go-to medium for getting information. Why WTOV doesn't realize this and continues to neglect their app, only they know. Right now, WTRF is doing a much better job keeping their app filled with timely updates and fresh content. Ch. 9 is not.
