### 5/5 — KKOmaha

*2016-12-15, version 6.8*

Great local news and weather app!

### 5/5 — Great app update, terrific radar

*2015-12-17, version 6.0*

GREAT IMPROVEMENTS!! Stories load 10x faster and so does video. Best local radar I've seen. My new go to app for local news & weather. A+

### 4/5 — KMTV Mobile

*2015-10-14, version 4.13.0*

The app is direct and uncluttered, which I like.  The sports page has no Huskers sub-page, which is glaring in its absence.

### 3/5 — Not the Best But Still OK

*2015-09-25, version 4.13.0*

If being current with the latest news is important for you then  go with the WOWT or KETV apps for local Omaha news.  This app is OK as as a third choice.  Breaking news appears to arrive a bit slower.

### 4/5 — Just What I Need

*2015-02-02, version 4.11.5*

Gives me a thumbnail sketch of top news stories, sports and weather. Perfect.

### 3/5 — Room for Improvement

*2014-11-02, version 4.11.5*

This app gives current weather for my location within Omaha metro, which was main concern. But their presentations on news is not always current. Don't like the layout, too scattered.

### 3/5 — KMTV

*2014-07-12, version 4.10.0*

I gave it a 3 rating because until recently the news didn't get updated and would be the same or not even carry some of the top stories. Lately it is doing much better and seems to update more even on weekends.

### 5/5 — ¡Fantabuloso!

*2014-04-23, version 4.9.5*

Now the people who created this app can brag that they have a 5-star app.

### 5/5 — Britney and Michael's Love Story!

*2013-08-24, version 4.5.3*

Excellent

### 5/5 — Good app

*2013-08-04, version 4.5.3*

The live streaming is a really nice feature, no other Omaha station streams their newscasts live on an app. Makes it really easy to get news on the go.

### 5/5 — Weather, news

*2013-06-26, version 4.5.3*

Love this app

### 2/5 — Blue

*2013-05-03, version 4.5.3*

Worst local news app.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Really?  20 sec ads to read a story?

*2024-02-29, version 7.3*

I don’t think so!!  I seldom look at your web app and now I remember why.

### 1/5 — Very unstable. Advertisements very unpredictable, views flash

*2022-05-10, version 6.44*

Not good

### 1/5 — I thought this was a news app

*2015-10-29, version 4.13.0*

It is fine if you want to read a snippet of the article or watch the vid (if there is one). I'm not going to waste time taking a survey to read the whole thing, if I wanted to take surveys I'd get a survey app. The website is no better.

### 1/5 — Live??

*2015-07-20, version 4.13.0*

I received an email telling me that Marco Rubio was in Council Bluffs at that moment talking/giving a speech. I clicked to live stream it. It never live streamed. Three days later, I'm still waiting for that live stream! One star is too many!

### 1/5 — Ads-ads-ads

*2013-11-17, version 4.7.0*

Pop-up ads keep trying to make me download jelly splash. Very very annoying. Get rid of this and I'll change my review, for now I won't be using this app.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2013-06-09, version 4.5.3*

Newer version is a pain to use compared to the earlier ones. Weather forecast is hard to pull up, have to go to the site instead of using app.  Miss the old version that worked.

### 1/5 — Thumbs down

*2013-04-03, version 4.2.5*

Way too many pop up ads filling the whole screen.

### 1/5 — App

*2013-01-02, version 4.2.5*

Hate this app. News is always days old and hate the way the app looks.  Stupid boxes.

### 2/5 — Don't care for new format

*2016-01-15, version 6.1*

And what happened to the traffic info?

### 2/5 — News a little bland...

*2013-06-06, version 4.5.3*

I like the app functions...they work well...pictures could be clearer. But my biggest problem is that the content is rarely updated and there is little diversity in stories from day to day. I use the other Omaha stations more frequently for that reason.

### 5/5 — Great news coverage

*2023-02-27, version 6.44*

Great source for update local news!

### 5/5 — Easy

*2022-03-10, version 6.44*

The app is easy to use and gives you updated local news, along with pertinent national and international news to keep you up to date with what is happening every day, everywhere.

### 5/5 — Review

*2022-01-03, version 6.43*

It is so nice to be able to get news from home. But I still feel Omaha is my home even after being here in Minnesota for 35 years. News is true and precise and I watch the weather because my extended family still lives there. Thank you for all you do KMTV!

### 5/5 — Excellent app! My favorite local news source

*2020-01-22, version 6.24*

Excellent app. Easy to use. Works reliably. Breaking news is usually important (unlike many news apps). Lets me pay a reasonable fee to avoid ads. I wish all aps worked as well as this one. I have deleted the other local TV apps.

### 5/5 — Best local news in Omaha!

*2019-08-19, version 6.22*

This app is easy to use and the content is updated regularly. My favorite place for local news!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2019-05-24, version 6.21*

Good quality!

### 5/5 — Easy to use, always updated

*2017-04-14, version 6.10*

I love the new "3 News now" name. KMTV is looking much better! Keep up the great work!

### 5/5 — KMTV 3

*2017-02-07, version 6.9*

Great App!

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2017-01-16, version 6.8*

I have a couple local news apps downloaded and this is definitely my go to app. By far the easiest to use and read, and they are usually first with breaking news.

### 5/5 — Easy to use!

*2017-01-13, version 6.8*

Easy user interface and nice layout. I just moved to Omaha and this was exactly what I needed for local news!!
