### 2/5 — Plagued and Chased

*2026-05-09, version 10.25.0*

Persistent pursuit for allowing notifications. Steady flow of advertisements. Why should I put up with this? Deleted

### 3/5 — App stopped loading

*2024-06-01, version 9.16.0*

I go to open it and it’s the only 3 news screen I normally use this app for all local news so hoping an update is coming that fixes it.

### 3/5 — Photos

*2023-01-01, version 8.5.1*

Within your app, I should be able to click on a photo and zoom in. especially on a missing person.

### 2/5 — Yes Content Counts

*2019-04-18, version 7.12.0*

App works just fine. Problem is with the leftist content. Stories don’t even hide the fact they are biased.

### 3/5 — Needs to be modified

*2017-01-28, version 6.12.0*

This is news app doesn't have a breaking news section and is frustrating when I get an alert but can't find the story to read up on it.

### 1/5 — Doesn't Exist !!!

*2016-09-26, version 6.11.6*

Had no menu after it was downloaded; Only instructions on how to select between articles.
What use is this if they aren't listed.

### 2/5 — Update ASAP!

*2016-08-18, version 6.11.6*

HATE! Why isn't there a Breaking News section? I get alerts of Breaking News and when I go to read about it, it's GONE. Vanished! Even when I go to the website can't find it. Frustrating!! Then it's other news at the top! No! This is Vegas I want to know what's going on here now today!! Hate deleting

### 1/5 — News3lv ksnv Las Vegas

*2016-08-16, version 6.11.6*

Was working fine, thanks to the latest update landscape mode quit working and when I reloaded the app it is stuck on the setup screen.  Worst news app of all local stations.

### 1/5 — Doesn't work when live streaming

*2016-05-27, version 6.11.0*

The app, when watching the live feed constantly has the word "Done" in the top left corner the whole time in landscape mode. It also appears when streamed to an Apple TV.

### 1/5 — Needs a major fix ASAP

*2016-03-10, version 6.9.0*

When you open the app, you can only read the top half of the screen and the bottom half is completely dark. Not sure what their app developer was thinking, but it just wastes space and looks tacky. 
Also, you can't even find anything easily and you have to search through an already frustrating app for a story you want to read on the hopes you can find it.
This new update was a major step back and is causing me to not use it until it's fixed as it's very frustrating and user unfriendly.

### 2/5 — Error

*2016-02-18, version 2.13.0*

Error 500: internal server error for several weeks. (?)

### 1/5 — New update doesn't work at all on iPad

*2016-01-20, version 6.8.0*

I can't get past the initial screen explaining the new layout features. I've uninstalled and reinstalled. I had deleted the app from my phone before this update because the only thing I got was the push notifications. Now it's the same with the iPad. I'd rather go to news channel 13 than to deal with all the problems with this app. I'll be deleting it.

### 1/5 — Pop up ad

*2015-11-27, version 2.13.0*

The pop up ad is annoying to the point I cannot use this app anymore very disappointed. Use to be a great app.

### 2/5 — Worst app ever

*2015-11-21, version 2.13.0*

This is the 2nd time I've download this app and disappointed again. The full page ad for the Mayo Clinic pops up constantly and makes it impossible to read articles. I am done with this app

### 1/5 — You should be ashamed

*2014-12-21, version 1.39.0*

I give you NO stars!  
Your top story on 12/20/2014 11:00pm news was the accident on Valley View!
The assassination of 2 New York officers directly attributed to the unmerited protests against the police and white people, the "Presidents" remarks, along with Al Sharpton's ( who incited all of this), should have been your top story. 
You, the pretentious, Democratically BIASED news media should be ashamed of yourselves. 
Enough is enough! Give us ALL THE NEWS or GET OFF THE AIR!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — The worst

*2026-07-29, version 10.30.0*

Much of the news isn’t that current. Anything going on about town is worthless. The “sponsored” content is so out of date it’s ridiculous. The content for mortgage information has been playing for months. 
What’s the point of this app?

### 1/5 — Buffer buffer buffer

*2025-09-01, version 10.10.0*

All this app does is continually buffer…and play the same commercials over and over, sometimes 3x in a row. This is so frustrating. Have to watch other less desirable local channels just to get a little bit of local news. Get it together!

### 1/5 — Fix it

*2024-06-01, version 9.16.0*

Won’t open after last update.

### 1/5 — Unhappy

*2022-12-30, version 8.5.1*

I was just forced to update the app before reading my news. The new app is terrible. I use my phone in dark mode . I have vision issues from nerve damage to my eyes. Bright lights kill me. I can’t even read the news now. I guess I won’t be using news 3 anymore unless you come up with a dark mode. The bright white page is awful. News 3 has been my favorite since I was a kid growing up in Las Vegas.

### 1/5 — Worst news station in Vegas

*2021-09-14, version 7.35.0*

A fire in a recycle, freeway closure for hours, police shoot someone, water pipe broke at the strip, did I find this out from channel 3? Nope. They only talked about the raiders. Half hour just talking about raiders and minor feel good stories from around the US. 
Want to stay inform look at other station.

### 1/5 — App update issue

*2020-12-29, version 7.33.0*

I updated the app and now it’s frozen.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2018-10-27, version 7.6.0*

I’ve installed and uninstalled the app 4 times and the audio doesn’t play, only video (yes, I adjusted my volume and checked settings). Too bad, i enjoy the morning newscast.

### 1/5 — Don't waste your time!!

*2017-08-29, version 7.0.5*

Worst app

### 1/5 — No to Sinclair Broadcasting!

*2017-08-13, version 6.11.0*

I am deleting this (& all other Sinclair Broadcasting owned media outlet apps.) Sinclair Broadcasting is AGGRESSIVELY purchasing local & previously unbiased news outlets and requiring them all to broadcast overtly intolerant news coverage & corporately produced op/ed segments. KOMO-TV in Seattle is airing these op/ed segments at 4:15 AM, btw...

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2016-10-29, version 6.11.6*

When you scroll up and down this dumb app changes content and you cant select anything. Worthless app, will delete immediately

### 5/5 — Yes I am

*2024-06-15, version 9.17.0*

I getting information about news and weather emergency alerts coming out on the website informing us about the situation

### 5/5 — Much Improved

*2022-09-21, version 7.38.0*

This app has come a long way. It is currently the only local news app I have found (in Vegas) that loads and doesn’t stutter as you scroll. The app crashes that plagued earlier versions are gone. The content is also up to date, and seems to refresh more regularly than the other local news providers. This will now be my go-to app for Vegas news.

### 5/5 — Much better breaking News,unlike 13

*2019-09-25, version 7.20.0*

Thank you for having James Rosen for National Breaking News.  It’s what we need  REPORTING THE NEWS   & NOT CREATING OPINION-NEWS - Like ABC George Stephanapoulos   
All your News staff so far  is great to  listen to & easy on the eyes  :) 
Great report on horrible accident on W Sahara by the Toyota dealership. Your News team was right there,correctly reporting this tragic accident.

We watch News 3 twice dly & 5 Fox at night,(mostly because of Christine & J H  doing the Rant .)

### 5/5 — Very Useable and Informative

*2015-08-14, version 2.12.0*

Accessibility with screen-reader also very much appreciated. My last attempt to use a News 3 app a few years ago resulted in complete inaccessibility, but this version is a huge improvement with a screen-reader. Thanks for this! I'll be going to it for local info from now on.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2014-02-10, version 1.36.0*

:)

### 5/5 — Easily one of the best apps on my phone.

*2013-10-21, version 1.31.0*

Rich content, easy to use.

### 5/5 — News 3 well done:

*2012-07-24, version 1.20.0*

MyNews3…great update…I’m mystified that very few review are given on a well done app for us locals and visitors ;)> Mike. De Simone

### 5/5 — Great app

*2011-11-13, version 1.10.0*

Great app, love channel 3 news.

### 5/5 — Great

*2011-11-07, version 1.10.0*

Anything news 3 is great!!!

### 4/5 — Sports announcer on Sunday night mispronounced Aaron Rodgers name

*2019-10-21, version 7.22.0*

The SPORTS announcer on Sunday evening reviewing the Raiders/Packers game pronounces Aaron Rodgers name as A Aron Rodgers. Unbelievable!!!
