### 2/5 — Love TV News App Yikes!

*2024-01-24*

Oh I love KUSI Local News but the APP… please help it out! Give it a facelift please so I can re-download.

### 2/5 — “Livestream”

*2023-12-25*

7:15 am livestream broadcasting 10pm news from yesterday. Super joke for a news company this size.

### 1/5 — No news updates

*2023-11-18*

If you like local SD regional high school football scores and stories, this app is for you. If you want to read about real news stories, especially at the local level, FORGET IT!  They must only write stories once a month. No current daily stories which is disappointing since KUSI is not a MSM affiliate of the liberal biased companies that control content.

### 1/5 — News does not update to current day events

*2023-08-14*

KUSI is a great news channel but their app is NOT.   The app is stuck with news from 7 (SEVEN) days ago.  Forget about getting weekend news.

### 1/5 — KUSI Fan

*2023-04-24*

This app is so frustrating! It was fine until it completely changed a few months ago. I used to be able to watch on my full screen or continue watching while I checked my email similar to YouTube. Now, I can’t do any of that and the live watch constantly kicks me out. I tried contacting KUSI but they seem to think that I’m the only one. Interestingly, I don’t have problems with any other app.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2021-11-09, version 130.2*

This app has an enormous amount of ads. It is also designed so that you accidentally open ad links when trying to close or scroll past them. Trash app.

### 2/5 — Chromecast support needed

*2021-09-01, version 130.2*

I love KUSI, their app is certainly frustrating though. No ability to cast & the amount of "glitches" experienced is alot! Currently I can load the live broadcast but it immediately freezes & won't ever start. Usually when it's this bad there's an update I need to perform, but I keep checking for the last 4 days & nada. Please fix!!

### 1/5 — Terrible App

*2021-07-11, version 130.2*

I LOVE KUSI. They are the best local news, however, this is the worst news app I’ve used. 
When it works, it is set up in such a way you can’t tell which are headlines and which are just video clips of their anchors. Most news apps have HEADLINES on the landing page and then the link takes you to the article, video, etc. 
Lately, the last several times I’ve tried to open it, it tells me there is NO content. What?! 
KUSI, put some money into hiring a good developer who knows graphic design and you will see this app actually be useful!
I deleted it off of my phone and sadly have no access to local news now (I will not use any of our other commie news teams). Please fix soon!
I bet if you started a go fund me you could crowd source the money for a decent app!

### 1/5 — Poorly Designed UI

*2018-09-25, version 9.2*

The app needs some major rework done to it. I really hate the black background and the apps UI seems like I’m looking at a webpage from 1998. The lettering in headlines seems to be blurry to me and I have 20/20 vision. Basically this app is poorly designed.

### 3/5 — Pretty Good

*2018-02-15, version 9.2*

Needs a resolution update for newer iPhones, and Chromecast support.
