What Happened to the App

I love 9News and am a dedicated watcher but what happened to the app? Why can I not search for a specific story? I have to scroll through whatever I don’t want or try to decide what category it might fall under and try to find it that way. I just end up closing the app and using Google to bring up the story I’m looking for. The weather upgrade is terrible, too. Hard to read the way it’s set up. Definitely not impressed with the update.

Live streaming is gone

I used to be able to go to this app and watch the evening news when I finally got around to making dinner at about 730 or 8 PM. I love that I could click on the news and it would just play the episode. Now it is all shorts in interspersed with many ads and I have to keep poking at it while I’m cooking. 😕

2026 Update is Terrible

8/3/26 -So sad to see this terrible app update is still out there. I will only click on articles from Facebook, since it still shows the old version of the app. I’ve turned off notifications for the 9News app on my phone. When I do forget and open the app, the font and formatting makes me cringe and I close again. I was hoping you’d ditch this dumpster fire but you haven’t so I’ve just deleted 9NEWS app from my phone and will use Denver7 from here on out, even though I prefer 9NEWS. I hope you all wake up and address this one day.

2/26 Edit to add the feature where you click on a notification and are greeted with a too long, extended welcome screen, followed by a grey screen where the article should be is especially annoying.
—-//
The update released early 2026 is absolutely terrible. The main screen loads less than 50% of the time, when it does load, it takes forever. Frequently get “Unable to Load” errors. The page layout and font is awful and hard to read. Miss the old app. Just downloaded Denver7. Will use that until this mess is fixed.

News

Denver Native enjoy reading the news instead of watching it

Local News

I lived in CO 30 yrs and have family & friends there. I like to know updates that affect them.

Bomb.com

For realzies!

Outside US

I would like them to change the app so it can be used when outside the US. 9News is the only news app that isn’t available when I travel to Europe.

Content is good update is not

I’d liked the app better prior to this update and format change. It is more difficult to search. I sometimes like to review an article that I’ve previously read and it can be very difficult to find that article again.

New changes are horrible

The recent update/new app is horrible. Not sure who is
In charge of the changes but they probably should look for a new job.

Reliable

I can trust 9 News to always report the truth.

9news viewer from Highlands Ranch

We support 9news 100%. I love the next show. I like how you guys present the news that’s real. There’s no spin on it just real good solid stories and around the world news as well as local. We love you guys.

9 News

No matter what time of day be at the morning it’s rarely in the afternoon but evening the rest of the day whenever I watch the news channel 9 rocks there they are not biased. They give a very good objective view, and the people are above and beyond doing their duties, which is great.

Thank you!

My connection to back home. I read this daily.

Screen

The background used to he black. It was easier on my eyes. Especially at bed time.

Fits my favorite local news into my hands

Channel 9 rocks and their app does too! Quick to hit me with notices of important local news that keeps me informed. I appreciate their team of journalists and how they get me real news, data and info.

Great news

Glad to have this app to keep up with local news.

Next rocks

Kyle Clark is the greatest interviewer of all time. Channel 9 is trustworthy. Please don’t change.

I hate the new format

The new format of the 9 news app is far from user friendly. Prior to the changes it was so easy to maneuver through and find out which stories were of interest to me. Now with the new format, I find myself using different news sources because it is too confusing.

Great on air personalities

I’m just enjoying the on air personalities

All the usual are great the new additions phill. Loving him. Kyle Clark. Great political debates

I enjoy the 9 news app and mainly go into it to get the correct weather forecast. My phone is always wrong it seems. My only complaint is the weather maps and radar cannot be zoomed in. They are so small you cannot tell the cities or even the counties. It would really help if that could be changed please. The same with the pictures on the stories. I guess we are all spoiled with being able to zoom in on our phones just about everything.
