Followed loading of app to "top" news but got stuck on an ad. Could not get top or local news because of this stuck ad. ### 1/5 — Gee, thanks for the 4:30 am wake up in Mesa County *2015-12-15, version 5.0.4* Even though I have the app settings turned off for all alerts, my phone and iPad came alive at 4:30 this morning with your catchy little breaking news sounder - which is really loud. I'm so glad you woke me and my husband up here in Mesa County at 0430 to let us know there were school delays in Garfield County. I'd actually like to get the alerts, but I can't have them making noise all day and night, which is why I had them shut off in the first place (for all the good that did!) Hmmm. Is it too much to ask that you ditch the catchy little tune? or that you find a way to customize the app to not alert me to things outside my county? Or that you fix the app to not send me breaking news alerts when I have all alerts set to off? Or that you allow me to get news alerts without an accompanying sounder? Any or all of those fixes would be much appreciated. ### 1/5 — App crash. *2015-03-20, version 5.0.1* App. crashes upon opening. Tried deleting and reinstalling and app. still crashes. I'm using most current version of iOS on iPhone 4S. ### 1/5 — 1 1/2 months with no news??? *2013-12-10, version 3.30* Seriously? News hasn't refreshed since 31-Oct. I'm moving on to another local news channel. This leaves a very poor image of a news provider. ### 1/5 — This app no longer works *2013-12-03, version 3.30* This worked well for awhile but after the last app update the stories haven't refreshed since October 31. I tried uninstalling and the October 31st stories came right back. ### 1/5 — Lame *2013-11-10, version 3.30* This app has NO news. Maybe update the news???????? ### 1/5 — Let's hide the news under ads *2013-10-12, version 3.22* It's like Easter, when you want to read the news you got to go and find it under the ads. And if you don't click the close ad just right you waste time closing the ads. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Should have left it the way it was !! *2026-03-20, version 8.0.2* The app was fine before. The new setup is terrible to say the least !! ### 1/5 — Reviews of KJCT 8 *2026-03-07, version 8.0.0* This app is terrible, when asked about accepting advertising, it never gave me a choice to consent or not. There is no way to uncheck permission to do so. ### 1/5 — Selective News *2025-03-06, version 7.0.16* The transparency of these news articles vs the truth is hilarious. Very selective news. ### 1/5 — Lies and half-truths *2023-12-29, version 7.0.13* Can’t even report the truth when it comes to Donald Trump!!! He is BACK on the BALLOT in COLORADO! Lies lies lies……. ### 1/5 — I almost loved it but ADS!!!!!!! *2023-09-29, version 7.0.11* The ads in this ap or some of the worst I’ve had. Half are absolutely inappropriate for young viewers and the rest are click bate that almost make you thing it a news article. Please just show me ads for Amazon or the like and not TRASH! ### 1/5 — WARNING contains a virus *2021-03-05, version 6.3.7* This app should never be downloaded as it comes with a free virus My iPhone 8+ will not allow the app to run because of it. ### 1/5 — Crash! *2020-05-01, version 6.2.8* Always crashes. ### 1/5 — Never gives daily current news *2018-05-29, version 6.1.7* News doesn’t change! Same old stuff. No new daily news. It takes over a week to possibly see today’s news. ### 1/5 — App constantly has issues.... *2018-04-04, version 6.1.6* Seems they can’t (or won’t) keep this app from having issues. It constant goes into long periods where the app will not load. It seems there is no support. ### 1/5 — Good morning America *2017-11-08, version 6.1.4* I was looking forward to a story on GMA Wednesday morning and during the interview you all cut in with the news. Missed the whole interview. Thanks KJCT😡 ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Up to date content *2023-11-06* Lots of the content on the app is posted right after the regular showtimes. You are able to watch clips of the weather without watching the full newscast. Really convenient and easy to use! ### 5/5 — Wunderfulll *2011-04-22, version 2.4* This is the best app ever! :) I use it everyday, and no bugs, errors, or virusses ### 5/5 — Wonderful *2010-11-10, version 0* This app is very informitive and very useful for myself and my family. There's no crashes, pauses, or mistakes.... it's wonderful. ### 4/5 — Something local!!! *2011-09-30, version 2.8* It so great to finally have a news app from a local place! It has worked very well for me on my iPad and not so good on my iPhone. I think only reason it doesn't get my 5 stars, is because sometimes the news articles never get updated fast enough, it the same ones over and over again. All in all I like it. Thanks kjct 8. Keep up the updates coming. ### 3/5 — Okay *2016-02-08, version 5.0.4* Need more up to date news, especially when schools are in lockdown!!!!! ### 3/5 — Doesn't always load *2013-01-25, version 2.61* This app is just OK. Half the time, it doesn't load news content and it crashes when you tap on a story. ### 3/5 — More Katie Ryan *2011-09-27, version 2.8* Now... Please. :) ### 2/5 — Doesn't work so well anymore *2013-11-17, version 3.30* The news hasn't updated in the last 2 1/2 weeks. It's November 16 and the app has the same news stories it had on October 31 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
