How can simple be so hard
I faithfully watch the 10 p.m. news when I’m home in MSP and want to do the same when I’m out of town, but it’s frustratingly difficult to do that in the app. If I click on “watch” I’m taken to an interminable string of ads followed by dropping into another broadcast perhaps ten minutes into it - the 6 p.m. broadcast sometimes, the 4 a.m. broadcast other times. Occasionally it seems to work, but it doesn’t seem to behave the same way two times in a row. I’m guessing the decision has been to focus on other ways of delivering content but would it really be that hard to make it easy to access past broadcasts?

Notification customization
I like getting local news updates right to my phone. However, I don’t need a push notification when some school or other non major team are playing one another in sports. Every once in a while, fine. But when it’s weekly or multiple times a week, it’s clutter.
There needs to be a way to customize. I discovered the notification customization section and every topic category of mine were turned off. I do want some notifications, but definitely not high school sports.
Also the ads are too loud.

Sound is a major issue
In todays world you would think programmers have been able to handle sound. Not the case with this app. Everything works well and as expected but be careful with headphones. The main videos will play so you turn the volume so you can hear it. Then when an add comes the audio is so much louder it will hurt your ears. This large fluctuation in sound volume from story to add is archaic in technical issues and should have been addressed long ago.
