Missing the previous version
The previous version of this app was my only internet based news source. I would check it multiple times daily and enjoyed the notifications that periodically popped on screen. Now I find most of the news stories are kept on the app for days and aside from local and political news, there is very little to choose from. Of the current version, I do like that all available stories are displayed in a list. The previous version displayed a list of 11 stories and the remaining 19 had to be swiped one from another to be assessed. I hope they keep most of the new format but get back the previous content.Show lessBendoKenzo
Just gets worse and worse
When I first installed the ap a few years ago it was a reasonably good ap. Since then with each update it gets buggier and buggier, crashes all the time. Now with the most recent update these pop up videos and banner ads make it completely unusable. I'll read a line and new video pops up. Close it read another line and the same ad/video pops up again. I like being able to keep up on the local news but this ap is making nearly impossible to do without throwing my phone across the room in frustration.Show lessDblee4898
Frequent crashes
Crashes every time I open the app via push notification. If I go back to the app, it will open but the news story that prompted the notification is nowhere to be found. I end up going to the web browser instead. Pointless app at this point.Lady_Elaine
Lots of Glitches
If I click on a notification on my banner, it starts to open it then the app crashes. If I take more than 1 minute to read an article, the app crashes. Some times I see a story pop up in my notifications and when I open the app to read it, it's not there. Lots of issues to figure out. Probably released the app too soon. Either needs more testing or debugged by a professional.Show lessAustin D. Powers
Poor App
As others have said, crashes ALL the time when you try and go to weather. And often crashes on its own while in other parts of app. What's the point if the app won't even stay open? Also, home page news seems to stick around for ages, and is often several days old. Some updates would be great.Boopdizzle
Worst app they've made
This app is crap. First of all, every time I go to the weather section the app crashes. Every. Single. Time. The "Breaking News" alerts are usually no big deal. I think every time a new story is added it's considered "Breaking News". The only thing decent about it is the layout, hence the extra star.Show lessCrl38
Entertainment?
Well, I really enjoyed being able
to read a little entertainment news after reading especially sad 'real' news stories. With the update it seems entertainment news is no longer, bummer.Naybeline
Not working properly
For the past 4 days there hasn't been any video available. I was out Thurs evening and wasn't able to watch the news but I knew I'd be able to see the weather on my KTVZ app. However, when I went to watch the video, there was nothing there. Even all the previous videos are missing! The video page is completely blank! Where are the weather videos?Show lessDebhem
Three Things to Change
1) The "View New Stories" pop up while in the app needs to stop just showing me stories about weather updates. Show actual new stories or change the pop up to say "View Current Weather." Also give me the ability to shut this off.
2) When leaving the app and coming back the main screen always goes to the top. Even if I was just away (like tapping on a link) for a few seconds. I've already seen what's on the top of the feed and want to resume where I left off.
3) Include comments section like on your regular website.Show lessxFAxFireFox
Can the ads.
This app allows me to skip most of the broadcast news and then select the news that is relevant. Unfortunately it doesn't get updated on weekends. I am sorry that the station is in such dire financial conditions that including an annoying ad to the bottom of the page became necessary. I would think that after running off all your competition the on air revenue would be sufficient.Show lessJimmyw2005
