  • Good – plus a suggestion

    Would be great if you could cover the towns and counties that have and continue to fight the 5G microwave radiation street antennas being forced upon us by the FCC and Telecom.
    Interview Dr. Joel Moskowitz at UC Berkeley (Public Health) for starters. And Dr. Paul Heroux (McGill U.) At what point do you side with your viewers versus your advertisers, is the question I hope you ask. Please don’t sell us out by ignoring this most important ongoing development! .

  • Freezes Often

    I like the app and content. However, it freezes quite often and I have to close the app and reopen to finish an article. Super frustrating when you are just trying to get a quick update.
  • Volume control

    I like to read or watch about our local news, but exactly as another reviewer complained about is the lack of volume control to mute the ad that plays whenever there is a video attached to the article. There is no volume control until the actual news clip starts and makes me not want use this app because of it.

  • Can’t Silence the Ads

    This is as annoying as it gets. You open an article and there’s an advertising video at the top that’s set with the sound on and you can’t silence it or stop the ad. In addition to the pure annoyance it can be embarrassing depending on where you’re at when it happens. I understand the need for advertising revenue but not when it completely ruins the user experience. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE!!!

  • On top of it

    Frequently I try to see current events on local news apps and I find that channel 4 is the fastest to cover things that are happening at the moment.
  • I would recommend kron

    Kron 4 is a very good app and it’s where I get my local news coverage. The only problem that I have with the app is that sometimes when I read the news it plays the video coverage in the background without me hitting play and I don’t like that. Otherwise, it does it’s job well.
  • Very buggy but OK for being free

    The app bogs down until it freezes half the time that I use it. It’s also super annoying that when scrolling down it will reset the timeline and send me back to the top. I then have to scroll all the way back down to where I was. Happens quite a bit.
    I do like that it’s free and keeps me up to date on the run, so 3 stars for that!

  • Constantly freezes

    I love your news station and the app is good if it would stop freezing. I would give you five stars if it stops on the next update. I always have to restart it and sometimes more than once
  • Ads and stuff

    Repeating the same ad over and over. Try to link to a story and again. Bombed by an ad. This is not a news source. It’s home shopping network disguised as news. The overly left slanted stories are more like CNN. I want facts with my news not social commentary that is one sided. Not that FOX is any better. Just the same in the other direction. Not happy with the app at all.

  • Needs more customizable notifications

    Way too many notifications, especially now with the COVID-19 coverage. I’m getting an alert every time a new death or increase in cases (both of which are to be expected) is reported in the state. This is a serious situation, but we can’t be bombarded with it 24/7 at such a degree. I’d like to still receive notifications, but there’s no way for me to differentiate alerts from breaking news such as new restrictions or laws, from updates every 20 minutes on the count of cases.
