Local News & Weather: Haystack App Reviews

The best for daily news

5 star. F*ck the crabfeast

Of my late night shows, world news and tech. Id only improve it by adding a couple more headings: funniest trending & morning news & daytime talk shows.

Im enjoying this app very much. I wish there was more of a selection of categories or just an easier way to select sources and topics.

Im new to Haystack, but have enjoyed the available selections. Easy to use, and once youve opened a category it plays through all of your selected shows/clips without stopping.

I love Haystack TV and its the only way I watch news. I use it on my phone and at home with Chromecast and Apple TV. Great selection of news videos every time!

As a cord cutter, I love my Chromecast. This app revived my TV and gave me a glimpse into the outside world that I have not seen since the early 2000s. Im so glad I have arrived in the future and now I have the ability to skip the slow day stories that the local news often produces. The ability to see my watch history is great too. I can quickly find a story to show my wife and friends that is worth their time. I highly recommend this app for anyone with a Chromecast.

Have only had this app less than a week but Im very impressed so far. Plenty of news clips to select from + NO BUFFERING❗️ As a retired Broadcast Engineer, I just look for flaws in anything related to the broadcast industry. The people associated with this app have done an excellent job. Thanks.

Ive been looking for an app like this for a while: one that streams news videos from multiple sources AND that is compatible with Chromecast. I use it at my (progressive) workplace to continuously stream a curated but varied set of videos to the Chromecast in the breakroom. Its nice to be able to stream all of these videos continuously without cable.

I used to use Newsy as part of morning ritual. Now Im using Haystack because its got much larger coverage and allows me to tailor to me using hashtags.

This is really a Great app it keeps you updated to everything

Despite some connection issues, this is a real game changer app. Instead of searching YouTube for clips, Haystack does the work for you. Love to use it to catch up on the news and late night TV.

Since I dont subscribe to cable, I dont get dedicated news channels, which I dont miss.

As my title suggests Ive used haystack for over a year now. It always starts out good for the first few videos, but then it freezes up after about five seconds. I dont understand why on every one of my devices it does exactly the same thing. I do not know why a bug like this still exists. Today it is failing to play any videos. Watchup is worse, but for the basic service haystack offers they are ripe to be displaced by a more robust competitor. It makes it very difficult for this to be a viable TV alternative

I no longer have cable and Haystack has been great at keeping me up to date on news. I highly recommend this

Nice and useful App.

The app is very buggy on iPad Pro. freezes and video stops a lot.

Woks well and steady. Very good tool to customize news videos.

I have been using this app for awhile and Im happy with it. It has a great variety of video contents from world events to entertainments...something for everyone. Great app, highly recommended to everyone to get this app.

Great app...keep me up to date on world and business news at a shortest amount of time. Good for people that dont have cable.
