Whatever happened to local news you could count on
It seems though the Valley news live app is following in the footsteps of apps such as CNN or USA TODAY. If you don't pay for a subscription you don't get news. You would think that an app dedicated to journalism would be able to support providing news when they have so many ads that pop-up. It's not a free press in this country!

Worst Journalism I’ve known
If it’s not a horrible app that makes you watch ads to get emergency news to keep you safe. It’s the sensationalism of everything.
Adds are ridiculous
We get an "Emergency Alert" then have to watch a bunch of adds before we are informed what's going on!! I can find better ways to stay informed 🤦♀️. Terrible app!!
Poor Writing, Trashy Ads, Clickbait, and Annoying Games!
I’ve had this app for a long time and appreciated getting timely area news and valuable info each day.
However, over the last year or so, the stories have become very poorly written which distracts from their content and also makes me wonder if the info is even accurate. The poor quality writing is unprofessional, not to mention annoying, and it’s loaded with spelling and basic grammar errors that should’ve never made it to the posting stage.
Another disturbing feature is all the ads that are interjected throughout and at the end and are presented as if they are real stories when they are nothing but trash and wasted space. They have no place in a news app.
I’m sick of this continually disappointing quality and also the recent awkward changes which worsened the usability of the KVLY app. For those reasons I will be deleting it.

I hate the update
I hate your new interface. Now instead of swiping from story to story, I need to back out of each one, find the next one on the list and tap into it. This is not progress. I also don't like the full screen ads on launch. I realize you need to pay for the content, but full screen ads with timers are very annoying.
