All it does is load, it rarely shows the news anymore. I get notifications, but then can't access the story.

App won't open, crashes every time I try to open it

App too often says I'm offline when I'm not. Then, if I tap to retry, it takes forever or fails to work at all. When it does work, there's seemingly no way to filter for local news only. (Sometimes I'll see what appears to be a site within the site, with local on a news submenu, but that's when the "offline" errors occur.) This app is not ready for primetime which is sad because KCRG is my preferred news source since WMT eliminated its newsroom and the Gazette requires payment for their bias.

This app is useless during severe weather. It streams forever, then requires you to watch advertisements, then streams some more, and finally won't play Livestream, claiming it's on commercial break. Going through Facebook is not much better with no sound, and running about 2 min behind live broadcast. Finally tried IHeart network stations, but none of them were Livestreaming until 20 min into warning. Then I find out KGAN is showing live footage of the tornado in real time.

The recent update (May 2020) messed up the font sizes in the story. I reinstalled but no difference. Disappointing. This version of the app needs to be fine-tuned. I had been using this app every day because this is a good local news source.

Fix your app please! For months it hasn't worked correctly. It doesn't load articles (or takes a long time if it does load them) and I have to keep closing and reopening the app to try and get it to work! Very frustrating and has led me to go elsewhere for the local news.
