Comments on WWAY NEWS for Android

★★★★★ Alfreda Hagans · Oct 29, 2021

Very informative because I used to live in Pender County. I still have a lot of family in the area.

★★★★★ Emit Industries · May 21, 2021

This is a good local news app. I deleted a similar app from a competitor because of their recent inclusion of annoying video ads every time I opened an article. I hope this company doesn't do that also.

★★★★★ A Google user · Jan 10, 2017

WWAY Review Keeps me informed and in the loop for the Cape Fear region and North Carolina.

★★★★★ Kristin Jarman · Sep 21, 2018

Thank you so much for keeping us up to date with news and weather in my hometown... being states away. Always my go to for news in Wilmington

★★☆☆☆ Michael Wheat · Mar 15, 2021

I have always enjoyed this app but recently ALL I am getting is "weather news"on the homepage"?!? I am talking stories from weeks ago about local weather then. What's up?!?

★★☆☆☆ Shar Good · Sep 1, 2022

It's trash. Using the Samsung phone no problem. Samsung tablet buffering all the time. Paired with spectrum....ugh

★☆☆☆☆ Heather Conrad · Oct 2, 2019

For over a year I have emailed, mailed and called WWAY to run our story, basically wrote the article for them. They ignored our emails, Facebook messages, tweets and mail sent to their station, yet they ran stories similar to ours if not the exact same thing. It was completely unprofessional not to be acknowledged when this was a very serious issue regarding a Veteran and his family still living with Hurricane Florence damages while their HOA is illegally withholding insurance funds.
