The other app. was much easier to use, much better... ### 2/5 — I don’t like this new app *2020-04-11* Ion ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads *2025-09-18* Ads pop up. The layout on the weather map is not friendly. Besides those ads that pop up in the middle of the screen very annoying have to click on them to remove them. I’ll stick KRGV. ### 1/5 — No anchor *2024-01-31* No anchor talking when playing the video might as well read the article. Channel 5 KRGV at least has the anchor speaking about the article. ### 1/5 — As always *2022-07-06, version 41.10.1* As always squeezing amazing ads to ruined users interacting with the app. ### 1/5 — Too many adds/video auto play *2020-10-18* Hate that I can’t read the news without an ad or video starting on its own. Poor app, download the KRGV app instead. ### 1/5 — 👎👎 *2020-04-25* Old ch4 app was way better ### 1/5 — No new news *2020-04-13* I go to this site for the latest news and all I g t is old news. No updates defies the definition of news. Come on, be revelant or go away. ### 1/5 — Way To many advertisements *2020-04-12* Well aware there has to be advertisements and pop ups but I think there is way to many! Then that annoying pop up as so as you sign on come one! ### 1/5 — Amateur *2015-04-03* The KVEO app used to be one of my favorites to get news here in the RGV. No longer this app doesn't have the professional look or feel that the previous app had, its very amateurish and I'm not comfortable with that. Thanks for ruining what wasn't broke. ### 2/5 — Could be better *2025-12-01* Information can be misleading News articles report inaccurate information ### 2/5 — Format *2020-12-08* Hard to find stories ## Most praised reviews (8 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Informative news channel *2021-02-21* We enjoy local and world news. ### 5/5 — News feed *2020-11-06* Absolute local coverage for our area, needed for our pending crises, please assure competent reporters are at watch at all times! ### 5/5 — Station Review *2020-07-07* Number 1 news station in the Rio Grande Valley. Very thorough news and weather. ### 5/5 — Amazing App *2020-04-17* Amazing App! Very glad to have it. News and updates are top of the line. I feel better informed than following the big channels. Information is accurate, concise and well written. The app is quick and clear. Congratulations! Continue the excellent work! ### 5/5 — Mrs Bev *2020-01-10* I’m live on the island and have relatives I visit in St Louis. With this app I can keep up on the local news. ### 5/5 — Special features especially enjoyable *2019-02-16* We look forward to every weekday broadcast but in particular, we really enjoy the “Outdoor Report” and the “RGV History” on Tuesday. We are “Winter Texans” and feel Robert Bettes’s weather reports and forecasts are the best in the country, hands down. KVEO has a real special jewel there! ### 5/5 — Amazing *2017-10-20* The app gives one information quickly! ### 3/5 — Great app, when it works *2023-01-02* User-friendly app that is easy to navigate. You can easily find what you’re looking for. But sometimes I open the app and I just get a black screen; no new updates offered. Sometimes I get the black screen when opening the app from the notification banners. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
