Had to just go to the web in order to filter searches. ### 1/5 — Weather *2021-06-01, version 41.2.1* You went backwards in the weather part of this app. I feel like it is much less user friendly. It’s terrible. Probably won’t use the app at all anymore. Please change it. ### 1/5 — Updates are terrible *2021-05-23, version 41.1.0* The recent updates to the app make it a disgusting app to use. Everyone associated with these updates should be shown a path to a new profession. This app used to be a user friendly and intuitive news site. Now it is a disgusting source of ridiculous pop up screens and it is difficult to navigate. And the disappointment continues - worthless app. ### 1/5 — Sioux Falls *2021-03-19, version 41.0.3* KELOLAND only services Sioux Falls. If you want to know anything about the surrounding areas, check somewhere else. KELOLAND does not report on anyplace other than Sioux Falls. ### 1/5 — New app *2021-03-16, version 41.0.3* The old app was great. The new app is lacking so much info, especially on the weather. Gone are the hourly temps and conditions and weather stories. ### 1/5 — Journalist *2021-01-12, version 40.35.570057539* You have stopped being journalist and changed to propagandist ### 1/5 — No sound!! *2020-12-22, version 40.35.570057539* I try I ### 1/5 — Liberal news outlet *2020-12-14, version 40.35.570057539* You want biased liberal news then this app for you ### 1/5 — Dish Network *2020-12-07, version 40.35.570057539* We donor have access ### 1/5 — Pathetic *2020-11-09, version 40.35.570057539* Keep on crashing!!!! ### 1/5 — Is it news? *2020-11-05, version 40.35.570057539* I am more and more dismayed by the choice of what is reported as news. There is a lot of South Dakota and it is not just Sioux Falls that gets coverage. ### 1/5 — App freezes *2020-10-04, version 40.35.470055398* The app freezes frequently I have deleted the app and downloaded a couple times, doesn’t help ### 1/5 — Crashes. *2020-09-30, version 40.35.470055398* The app crashes every time I try to go down the list of articles and share them. Update the app immediately. ### 2/5 — App crashes *2020-09-28, version 40.35.470055398* I like the app but every time I’m reading a story the crashes before I can finish reading the story I wish they would fix this problem ### 3/5 — Crashing *2020-09-27, version 40.35.470055398* The app keeps crashing on me. Please fix it. ### 1/5 — Get kicked out or it freezes *2020-09-23* This used to be my go too app for local news. Now all it does is freeze up or kick me out when I try and read news stories. I’ve uninstalled and reinstalled several times and it still does not work. ### 2/5 — Advertising Freezes App where as you have to close out the app and delete then reload page. *2020-09-23, version 40.35.470055398* You ### 1/5 — Poor app *2020-09-16, version 40.35.470055398* App constantly locks up ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Sad App *2025-11-10* I drive truck for a living and appreciate being able to watch the local news in the morning for the weather. Now I have to request a login every time I want to watch which means I have to log into my email to watch and if I close out of the email then the login closes. I can’t update the app to allow me to watch the news live as they say. I guess I’ll only watch on weekends when I’m home. ### 1/5 — App doesn’t work *2025-08-08, version 500.9.0* It loads but you can’t move the screen or touch anything to click into it. ### 1/5 — Visually impaired. *2025-03-12* The app needs more improvements. Especially for visually impaired readers like myself. I can’t even read the sports scores because the voiceover on my IPhone doesn’t have the ability of reading the scores. All it says is vertical scroll bar. That’s a disability rights violation. ### 1/5 — Ads make it unusable *2024-11-05, version 500.6.0* The worst. You can’t get any meaningful news because you are constantly getting pop ups ### 1/5 — Font is huge now! *2024-03-30, version 500.1.4* And I have it set on the smallest size. Impossible to use the App now. I deleted the app and reinstalled it weeks later and it’s still huge. Deleting the app again. ### 1/5 — Horrific update to KELO news app. *2024-03-02* I was going to begin by stating this could be the worst news app on the internet. But actually, it is without a doubt the worst news app on the internet. Proof positive that all the chimps in the world could not design an app that is any good. Is there a rating lower than F-? If so, KELO GETS it, hands down. ### 1/5 — Updates are terrible *2024-02-18, version 500.1.1* The recent updates to the app make it a disgusting app to use. ### 1/5 — Too many… *2023-07-21, version 41.20.0* More commercials than news on this site… ### 1/5 — “Experts have discovered one simple trick…” *2022-05-12* Ads, ads, and more ads. Also, the Keloland apps will beg you over and over again to track your location and other details to feed said advertisements. Just want the South Dakota info you came for? Have fun hacking your way through the neck-deep underbrush of malware advertising that these apps purport to provide. “Experts have discovered one simple trick…” to avoid all this nonsense: SKIP INSTALLING THE KELOLAND WEATHER/NEWS APPS ALTOGETHER!!! ### 1/5 — Worst Update Yet *2021-06-15* I use KELOLAND News app daily to keep tabs on the weather but since it was recently changed/updated the all weather applications want to revert to Hutchinson, KS. I don’t care about the weather in Hutchinson! I want my local weather info back. Settings has my location saved correctly. Sure hope I don’t need a weather update in a hurry because it would be to late by the time I get my location pulled up. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — I love KELOLAND!! *2021-01-02* Great news, weather, and weather related closings source!!
