I love getting breaking news notifications, but it is very annoying when I get Sports News notifications when I have it turned off. Sports News is not breaking news. Breaking news is car accidents, political, missing people, major events.
Newest articles should be first
Update: Now when I open the news app when I first wake up, I am startled by a loud ad! Why loud ads when opening the app!!?? I READ the news QUIETLY in bed in the morning & at night so as not to wake my sleeping dear. Is there a paid app available WITHOUT ADS? I hate having to scroll through yesterday’s news to find the newest articles!!! Why aren’t the newest articles posted first, on top of the old, then let the oldest articles fall off the bottom after a certain time? This morning, I had to scroll past 12 old articles from yesterday to find 5 current articles posted this morning. The newest should be first so that once I get down to the older articles from yesterday I can stop scrolling. Finding this morning’s news shouldn’t be a treasure hunt. I’m growing weary of trying use this app for local news...
Update: Today I am unable to get to the news at all. I’ve opened the app multiple times but it opens a Lenovo/Temu ad that cannot be closed. The X at the top right of the ad is located directly in between the Lenovo & Temu logos & when I click X instead of closing, it’s taking me to another website. I guess it’s time to delete this KBTX news app.

Why can’t I get any weather anymore?!
I don’t want a separate (even larger) app just to get some local weather. Please bring back a weather button for the basic graphic (visual) forecast and the current temperature reading. If I wanted all the fancy bells and whistles of high-tech weather data, I would consider getting your fancy weather app. But, I don’t. I liked having the simple things I need, all together, in ONE simple place to use. Without some weather, I don’t even really need this app anymore.
