Want news, get KETV app
I have had great luck with the KETV app. There seems to be less annoying advertisements or ones that I can easily avoid on the news site. Reading stories is easy. The font size is perfect plus linking the videos has always been quick and easy. I enjoy the cleanliness of the whole website. Easy to navigate, easy to find what you want. Great site. I highly recommend it.

News Stories are Cut Out by Ad Placement
While I like to read the local news, it is very annoying that ad placement cuts out parts of the stories. This is a consistent problem and it should be addressed. Ads are placed midway or toward the bottom and scrolling past them does not produce the missing prose.
Ok app
I don’t like that it freezes and jumps around the news cast. It will repeat the same few seconds multiple times then skip ahead a minute or two. They finally fixed the bug where my alarm goes off (getting ready in the am) and it would completely stop. 👍🏻Overall it’s my least favorite app and most difficult to watch the news in the morning. I keep watching bc I like the morning crew. But they need to make improvements

Prefer this Application except...
Enjoy reading the stories. Do not like the 15 second ads, that you cannot skip after 5 seconds, like one of the other stations have. It wouldn’t be so bad if the ad started immediately but it doesn’t. There is a long pause. Prefer another station’s app because of thid
Don’t want to see old news
Two things I don’t like. News stories from outside my area which i can’t distinguish from stories about my area until I open them and start to read them, and stories that stay on for days. Old news is not good news.
Weather videos
I would rate higher but the videos freeze up and it takes three or 4 times to try to open them. The map has improved a lot and the hourly and 10-day forecasts are good. Don’t look at much of the other content
Channel 7 news app
I like the mechanics of your app but the administration is deplorable.
I understand tithe need for advertisers but there must be a better way then pop-ups and long strings of them between paragraphs.
Your on air broadcasts are award winning and ten steps ahead of others in the area.
You need a full time administrator who can spend the time to update at least twice in 24 hours..
Theres articles out there that have been there for months. If a story has a video only leave it there with the story for a short time then move it to a separate queue. Along with day old stories.
And please
, if you send an alert on a “breaking news” wait for some of the story to unfold. As it is now formatted it’s wasting my time alarming me for nothing.
That’s all. I am really a fan but these things have bothered me for some time..
All you’re reporters anchor people and broadcasts are the best.
Thanks for asking.

Difficulty reading news stories and app freezing
Within the last few weeks, the app will not open a news story when I tap on it and the app will freeze. I keep checking to see if there is an update to fix this, but the recent update didn’t fix it. I’ve also noticed that when I receive a notification about a news story, I tap on it and it goes straight to the home page. The news story that came up as the notification is difficult to find and not directly available to view. I’m still able to successfully navigate the weather portion of the app, but that’s it. Please fix these issues!!

The very last news app I read!
I’m sure you can do much better—the other news stations all do! Why do I keep getting flipped back to the beginning after I’ve read a story? Why do you keep old news stories intermingled with your current ones? What is your font size so much smaller than any other news app? Only the weather is good and an occasional unique human interest story that the other channels don’t have. Please find a new professional to upgrade your app!

Review
Notifications about breaking news not immediately available to read.
App locks up sometimes when moving around in the app.
It would be nice to have a way to manually move thru the radar map. It moves slowly over a long period of time when all I want to see might be the last 15-20 minutes.
Story font is very tiny and difficult to read.
Even when I have notifications turned off, I still get multiple notifications about when rain will begin at my house.
